Lentil Soup-”Fakes”

March 12, 2010 Greek Food

I love lentils!  I’m thinking of getting that printed on a t-shirt and telling the whole world.  Ok. Maybe that’s a little over the top but what’s not to love about this legume?  It’s healthy, full of fibre and definitely fills

It’s been a few weeks!  A busy few weeks.  I had a bit of a break and went down to the South Coast of NSW for a few days with a group of friends.  I’ll be covering that in a future post.  I also managed to get down to Tasmania for a week but that [...]

Broad Beans

The rain has been quite persistent here in Sydney the last few days. Winter is slowly upon us and this is the time of year I get to indulge in my favourite comfort foods. Soups, braises and casseroles all make perfect “winter warming fare”. They fill you up and keep [...]
