Tilapia baked in basil and garlic, served with mango and cucumber salsa

12 / 6 / 137 / 13 / 15

All these flavours can together quite nicely! I was a little concerned about the basil in the fish but it was surprisingly good, and the salsa made a great coplement.

Almond and cashew pesto

1 / 22 / 137 / 8 / 15

I have come to notice that most restaurants have just a couple of signature dishes in their menu and then the rest is the usual stuff. Yup, even the fancy and expensive places. They may serve it creatively a name it something fancy to match their theme but in the end a lamb chop is a lamb chop is a lamb chop! #justsaying

Layered experiment

9 / 27 / 127 / 13 / 15

Not only was this fun to do, it turned out great! Try it out with your own combination of herbs and spices and see how it turns out. Definitely one for repeating.

Reviving the garden

1 / 30 / 125 / 30 / 15

Since I started growing these herbs I’ve had what I consider a small glimpse of another world. Oh to be plant! Not an easy thing, especially when you can’t move to get away from the predators that are after you. The battles continue…

My bachelorette pesto!

10 / 24 / 112 / 9 / 12

I used to make this when I was a bachelorette, living alone and no one to cook for but me. It’s super easy to prepare and the best part is the pesto stores well in the fridge. So I could make a batch and pull it out a couple of times a week when I… Read More

Note to self: Just because I’m rowing the herbs doesn’t mean I’m the only one interested in making a meal out of them.
