What's Cooking 14

I must be one of the only people left in the world who doesn’t really have a social media profile.  I can be super shy and the thought of sharing my day to day life with the world makes me hella nervous. Honestly, if you had any idea the turmoil I went through when I was thinking about starting this blog…

The thing with social media is, it opens you up to a whole new world of possibility.  For instance, I recently joined Pinterest. As I began to engage with the app I found heaps of new foodies to be inspired by. What’s more, I discovered you don’t have to be a vegetarian to create and love veggie-centered dishes.

Today’s installation of What’s Cooking (whilst still plant-based) is a shout out to all those bloggers who love good nutritious food.  Be they veggie or not.

One of my favorite things about being a vegetarian is feeding people who are not.  The look of surprise on their faces never gets old.  I love it when they realise that, a)  they’re not going to go hungry, and b) the meal is going to be really yummy.  Whilst I love to create my own dishes from scratch sometimes I need a little extra inspiration.  With so many innovative vegetarian blogs around it’s easy to find the perfect dish for that special occasion.  Here’s what I’m diggin’ at the moment.

Whether you call yourself a vegetarian or not, everybody can benefit from a couple of meat free meals per week. Veggies are gentle on our systems, easier for our bodies to break down.  Not to mention easier on the wallet.

Often people think they would like to try say, ‘Meatless Monday’ but they just don’t know where to start. Well fear not my friends!  The great thing about veggie blogs is they’re not just for vegetarians.  At a new green leaf not only do you get all my favorites that I cook at home but some great inspiration from around the web too.

The following are some of the super yummy recipes that I want to try this week. Continue reading “What’s Cooking?”

The thing with food is, it’s not like exercise, “I could take it or leave it,” you might say.  With food, you have to eat.  Every day.  Several times a day.  So even if you love food, as I do, sometimes it can all feel a bit too hard.  Hand up if the divine dinner you were planning in your head on the way home from work via picking the kid up from school turns into boiled eggs, plain pasta and veggie sticks?

This is one of the reasons I love the internet.  Who would have thought there were so many ways to prepare the humble vegetable?  For every recipe, there are at least five different takes on it – and mouth-watering pictures to go with them!  Here’s what I’m digging from around the web this week.

what's cooking 3

It’s the school holidays in my neck of the woods.  That means we’re busy, busy, busy. Having to juggle play dates, work, family adventures, and paper mache computer game characters (don’t ask) means I’m turning in this post a day late.  But better late than never, right?

My priorities shift when school’s out and you can forget about my well thought out family routine.   But that’s okay, it’s nice to have the little dude at home.  During this time I don’t want to have to think too hard about nourishing my family.  Luckily, I have come across some super tasty recipes from around the web that I can whip up pretty quickly.
