Sometimes it’s all about how the cookie crumbles, or in this case how the bread crumb crunches. In the spirit of crunchy zen coupled with the autumn breeze sweeping through Sydney’s evening sky I hunted for this old fashioned Macaroni and Cheese recipe.

Meatless Monday: Leon’s Superfood Salad
Post Australia Day weekend I was nostalgic over Leon‘s salad and not the quintessential Australian meatpie.

Meatless Monday: Ottolenghi’s Kosheri
Starting Meatless Monday with this recipe from Ottolenghi’s cookbook, Ottolenghi: The Cookbook.

Meatless Monday – Vegetable Lasagna and the uphill better to blog more
Incredibly, it had been a full 6 months since my last post. During that period of hibernation from the blog sphere many things happened, but for the most part I was in survival mode through a long cold winter (both literally and metaphorically).

Meatless Monday and Happy 2012 : Okra curry
With the blink of an eye and explosion around Sydney, 2012 is here. We greeted New Year sitting on a balcony overlooking the city, eating cheese and playing board games. I can only hope that 2012 will be just as chilled.
Meatless Monday – Shitake mushroom, water chestnut and ginger dumpling
