Sushi Salad

Lately we have had leftovers from our weekly takeaway sushi. Inspired by reality TV cooking shows and the sushi salmon salads I enjoyed while working in North Sydney, I created a ‘sushi salad’ that I serve with our dinner the following night.

Tomato, Chilli and Ginger Damper

Winter time and my thoughts turn to soups and breads.

Low-Fat Chips

There are tons of recipes out there for low-fat chips and most use the oven, a standard technique for those of us who are counting calories.

No Mayo Potato Salad

Hubby is not a big fan of mayonnaise, a common ingredient in potato salad and one that can make the salad fattening. This is a lighter version without the mayonnaise.

Savoury Zucchini Bread

All Winter I have been experimenting with a recipe for a savoury zucchini bread.

Tonight, I finally put the finishing touches to the recipe.

Guacamole

Guacamole is a Mexican avocado dip. This recipe was developed by a friend. You can vary the quantities of all the ingredients to suit your tastes. The recipe here does not include tomatoes or onions, which are usually part of a traditional guacamole.

Pumpkin Bread

Butternut pumpkin was on special the other day so I couldn't resist buying a couple more even though I have half in the refrigerator. With so much pumpkin and Winter seeming to have arrived early, I'm busy leafing through my recipe folder for soul-warming food.
