GRAPEFRUIT + BLOOD ORANGES WITH HONEY + CORIANDER SEED TOASTED OATS

Fruit salad isn't normally my thing. It's probably a hangover from those tins of fruit salad from the 70's that were served up at school in a pool of evaporated milk.

BLOOD ORANGE + MARMALADE CAKE

As a month, January can get a lot of stick. But I don't really mind it. I like the fresh start it offers after the indulgences of Christmas.

1265 DEGREES NORTH

I have a thing for stoneware in simple shapes and colours. It is always my to-go tableware when I want to photograph food, as it lets the food sit comfortably, adding a gentle un-fussy soothing ambience to the scene.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH + SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPAGHETTI

Today I am sharing a family favourite as my final recipe for the Abel & Cole X Balance Blogger Challenge. This pasta sauce always goes down well with my children, and for me it's a real comfort food dish that is so perfect for this time of year.

CARROT, CHICKPEA + CORIANDER PANCAKES WITH ROASTED VEG, FETA, AVOCADO + PESTO

Today I am sharing this veg packed recipe as part of the Abel & Cole X Balance Blogger Challenge. It's worth making a batch of these pancakes as once cold, they can be stacked between sheets of baking paper, wrapped in foil and frozen for another time.

APPLE, PEAR + CARDAMOM COMPOTE

This week I am taking part in the Abel & Cole X Balance Blogger Challenge to inspire people to get their recommended 10 portions of fruit and veg a day. Organic fruit and veg specialists Abel & Cole and wellbeing magazine Balance have invited five food bloggers, of which I am one, to each share 3 recipes created from an Abel & Cole seasonal fruit and veg box.

CHOCOLATE + {GOLDEN} BEETROOT CAKE

I've got out of the habit of posting here on my blog, preferring the easier more instant Instagram as a way to share my thoughts and images. So here by way of a big tick on my 'should do list' is a recipe for Chocolate Beetroot cake.

BLACKBERRY + LIQUORICE LOLLIES / MANGO + PASSION FRUIT LOLLIES

This week the weather is set to hit record high temperatures for June. Coming home from work and school hot and frazzled calls for a bit of cold comfort and these smoothie ice lollies certainly hit the spot.

GLUTEN-FREE ALMOND CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE FUDGE FROSTING + SALTED CARAMEL
