Spring

Lovely treats, perfect with a glass of cold milk (or soy milk)

Australian ANZAC Biscuits

I have read several stories about the origin of the ANZAC Biscuits (never to be called cookies) and some myths are prevalent.

Lovely ice cream, suitable for every occasion

Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

I don't like ice creams that contain lots of cream, egg yolks or egg whites and are so fatty that when the ice cream melts in your mouth, it leaves a fatty layer inside it.

Tropical sunshine in a bowl

Mango and Coconut Ice Cream

This ice cream is a bit of tropical sunshine in a bowl. It doesn't contain any white sugar (only agave nectar) and is lactose (dairy) free, egg free and nut free.

A simple yet wonderful dessert

Grilled Mango

Mangoes are a quite amazing fruit. They contain phenols, which is a phenolic compound that has powerful antioxidant and anticancer abilities.

Not the easiest soup to make but very much worth the effort

Mussels and Coconut Noodle Soup

This is one of those recipes which has an endless ingredients list.

A traditional Icelandic shrimp salad

Shrimp Salad

This is a classic, Icelandic salad, served with bread, on crackers, as sandwich fillings and often when there is a gathering of people such as for birthdays.

One of my husband's favourite chicken salads

Curried Chicken and Grape Salad

This is a simple yet healthy meal, packed with protein and calcium and is also low in fat.

A light and healthy meal

Chicken Summer Salad

A very summery salad, perfect as a light and healthy meal on a warm summer evening. Although I am vegetarian my husband loves this salad and will sometimes ask me to make it for him.
