I’ve never truly understood the fuss about caesar salad. That is, until I started making it about a week ago. Ooof! That unctuous, tangy dressing? Those salty crunchy bits? Caesar salad is salad heaven! Naturally, due to my FODMAP constraints and vegetarian, I had to play around a little. So here we are with this…
Read MoreSummer tomato, lemon and mascarpone pasta (lactose free, FODMAP friendly, gluten free)
I have a well documented penchant for buying a frivolous amount of pretty tomatoes at the farmers market. Summer tomatoes, particularly in their rainbow form at my local farmers market, are my achilles heel. Last weekend, as always, I went particularly overboard on the tomato front. When I returned home, I had to ask myself:…
Read MoreGreen haloumi salad with toasted almonds and dairy free pesto
Given my penchant for halloumi, (exhibit A – this honey roasted carrot haloumi salad) this green haloumi salad was destined to happen. The salad combines the deliciousness of halloumi with the ease of a 10 minute throw together job that happens to be packed with FODMAP friendly vegetables. Initially I had no intention of writing…
Read MoreHoney balsamic roasted vegetable frittata with lactose-free cheese and pesto (FODMAP friendly)
When Liddell’s lactose free dairy asked me to develop some recipes, I knew a frittata needed to be involved.

So tonight, as I launch it properly, I wanted to give you a bit of sneak peek. My childhood was spent near bushland, meaning…
Read MoreMy ultimate gluten free vegetarian lasagne (FODMAP friendly)
So, Barilla have asked me to create my ultimate gluten free vegetarian lasagne. Let me set the scene: it has a rosemary infused vegetarian bolognese. Roasted vegetables of your choice, and roasted red capsicums for sweetness. Next up is a layer of spinach and basil. Finally, the lasagne is rendered complete with a low lactose,…
Read MoreGluten free strawberry pie (FODMAP friendly)
You may have noticed recently that I’ve been into pies. I made a FODMAP friendly pumpkin pie, and I contributed some gluten free fruit free mince pies to The Guardian. Two pie recipes = very into pies. Hadn’t you heard? A big part of this recent emotional attachment to pie is my newfound gluten free pastry…
Read MoreMy favourite potato recipes I’ve written (just in time for Christmas)
Hello and welcome to this post, ‘all the potato recipes I’ve written in one convenient space.’ While writing up the potato recipes I had planned for Christmas, I became stuck on which recipe to post. That’s when it hit me – why choose? Why limit the power of the potato? So today I’m sharing a…
