This is my Homemade Thai Red Curry Paste, made from totally compliant ingredients and free of sugar and seed oils. It tastes quite different to store bought and much spicier. I always use the Maesri brand of curry pastes and have always been happy with them even though there are technically more compliant brands, but…

Thai Salad
This is a really basic Thai Salad using bagged leafy salad mix, bean sprouts and Thai flavours. Easy and quick to throw together and goes really well with lots of different proteins! The flavours in this salad are so beautiful and fresh, salads taste so good to me now, it’s amazing how much this way…
Marble Jelly Cheesecake
I toyed with the notion of making this Marble Jelly Cheesecake because generally I try to stay away from artificial sweeteners and while sugar free jelly is an incredibly low carb sweet treat, it happens to have a ton of those artificial sweeteners! In the end though, I decided to test it out as I…
Fathead Bacon and Onion Tarts
These are really simple little tarts made with Fathead for the pastry and with a cheesy filling, topped with onion and bacon. They’re really easy to make, but look impressive and are great for guests and parties. They can also be served room temperature so you don’t have to worry about keeping them warm. These…
Chicken and Cauliflower Rice Omelettes
These are based off traditional rice omelettes which are very popular especially with kids. Except of course, rice is definitely not something we want to eat so instead these are made with cauliflower rice! In my opinion the flavour is even more delicious than with regular rice. These are also incredibly filling, I could barely…
Sugar Free Gummy Bears and Snakes
These Sugar Free Gummy Bears and Snakes were something I’d been wanting to try for ages. I’m not a huge fan of gummies myself but my brother is in love with them and I wanted to be able to make some that I could give him WITHOUT the massive amounts of sugars, artificial sweeteners, artificial…
Homemade Passata
I developed this homemade passata for my son who is on the spectrum and an incredibly fussy eater. Visual changes in food are much more of a problem for him than changes in taste. He used to only eat plain jarred spaghetti sauce and I started by introducing one flavour at a time for that,…
Basil Paste
I used to love buying those tubes of herb pastes, particularly basil, which I use a lot in my son’s favourite sauces. I hated that whenever I’d buy fresh basil I’d never use it all up or it would go off really quickly. At nearly $4 a bunch, that was a lot of money ending…
Chicken Caesar Salad
Chicken Caesar Salad is such an ultimate low carb meal. I usually reserve it as a treat for when I go out because there are so many restaurants and cafes that have it on their menu. Usually all you have to ask for is no croutons and you’ve got a great low carb meal! It…
Steak with Creamy Caper Sauce
Really simple dish that can be whipped up quickly and easily, but is also full of flavour. The sauce has a very strong flavour straight out of the pan, but tastes fantastic when drizzled over the steak and broccolini. If you like you can sub regular broccoli instead of the broccolini. I like my steak…
