Sometimes all you want to do is chuck a bunch of chopped vegetables in a pan and cook it for a bit of time before you serve up. This sausage hash is great for a lazy morning breakfast, maybe after a big night for New Year’s Eve. It doesn’t require much seasoning, just salt, pepper…

Cinnamon Pecan French Toast Bake
I never used to like French toast, but I think that’s because whenever we made it at camp, it was always far too eggy and not covered in enough cinnamon. By now, you know my feelings on cinnamon: there is never enough. Brioche loaves are quite difficult to come by in Hong Kong, at least…
Christmas Morning Cranberry Muffins
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! I hope that, however you spend today, you are get to spend the day with people you love and who love you in return. In my family, we normally have a cooked breakfast. Think eggs on toast with smoked salmon and avocado. For those of you in the Eastern Hemisphere, this…
Berry Vanilla Waffles
It’s not often that I want waffles, but when I do, I want them to be crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and delicious through and through. I’ve been eyeing up this waffle iron at one of the only bake shops we have in Hong Kong, and I finally got round to purchasing…
Asparagus Frittata
Every time I hear the word frittata, I can only picture it in Harrison Ford’s voice in Morning Glory, a movie about a morning talk show. If you don’t know what I’m talking about click here and go to the 2:35 mark. Anyway, I had a bunch of asparagus and mushrooms that needed using up,…
Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito
This is the first of many vegetarian dishes that I hope to write up for the blog. As I explained in my previous post, I’ve been sticking to a vegetarian diet during the week, and cutting my meat consumption to just over the weekends. It’s a way for me to have a positive environmental impact,…
Red Velvet Pancakes
A friend of mine went to Bali over the Christmas and New Year holiday, and posted a lot of beautiful scenery shots on her Instagram story. My favourite shots though, are always of the food she eats. She’s a pro at Instagram posts. Always knows the best lighting, the best place for a photo. I…
Mixed Berry Smoothie Bowl
Alright. Christmas is officially done. My Christmas cards have been recycled, my fridge is clear of most Christmas-based foods, and now I’m trying to use up the final remnants of Christmas chocolate, while also focusing on clearing out the rest of my fridge. And with that, it’s time for some healthy breakfast options. Well, one…
Granola & Yogurt Breakfast Parfait
Right, so the past two weeks have been hectic. Obviously, I’ve been making and creating for the blog because I love it. But I’ve also been trying to complete an essay for my PGCE, as well as submit paperwork for my teaching placement, and now I have a few more pieces of paperwork to print…
Smoked Salmon Egg Cups
You know those mornings when you just cannot be bothered to sort yourself some breakfast? No? Me neither. I’m one of those people who needs to eat before I leave the house, or I feel sick – it doesn’t matter what time it is. It doesn’t need to be a full-blown cooked breakfast, but I…
Spelt Raspberry Pancakes
Having made the blackberry drop scones over the summer, I’ve been hunkering to adapt the recipe for different flavours. I finally had my chance one weekend, when I had some raspberries and yoghurt to use up. I’ve called this recipe pancakes, because they are very much like American pancakes, but it is essentially the same…
