Coffee Protein Smoothie This is PROBABLY a morning smoothie given that it has coffee in it. I personally do it with Vanilla as it makes me think of a Vanilla bean iced coffee but chocolate works for those mocha lovers out there! There are a few ways you can make this one and we will…
Loco Moco The Loco Moco is a dish that is often featured in Hawaiian cuisine. I encountered the loco moco when I visited Hawaii in 2008. I was apprehensive at first as it had traditionally had a slab of spam in it. But I soon realised you could have a meat patty instead. The problem…
Hoi An Pork Mince When in Hoi An, I do overdose of Cao Lau. And rightfully so because it is DELICIOUS. The prep and cooking of it though would make it a rather rare dish though since it does require a fair bit of prep and cooking time. BUT THAT FLAVOUR.. UGH. So! I promised…
Beef Stroganoff When it came to food, my mum thought I was a picky eater. Turns out she was mistaking me for her other son – who wouldn’t eat anything that had or been near tomato. Eventually it dawned on her I was happy to try new foods and her beef stroganoff was the meal…

[nutrition-label] Morning Glory While travelling in Vietnam – I am not exactly the most adventurous person when it comes to trying new foods. I am pretty set in that I don’t do hot and I don’t do spicy. Odd name? Yeah.. I’ll pass. However eventually we tried Morning Glory which is the fancy name they…

Brocoli & Mushroom Stir Fry This recipe came about because I *was* diligently organising myself to do meal prep and I then realised my diligence was rubbish as the turkey mince I had bought smelled weird and I wasn’t going going to chance it. No big deal. No meat – I figured it was a…
Chicken Larb This is a classic chicken salad from the Thailand, Cambodian Laos area. The proper name is Larb Gai and is quite often served with steamed rice or in lettuce cups. We’ve been a bit crafty in omitting some of the less healthy ingredients (namely – sugar!) but the taste is still fresh and…
