My grandma used to make a mean trifle every Christmas, it was the best! Sadly I never managed to get a recipe for it. I have always wanted to try making trifle, it really is a dish that you can let your imagination run wild with. I have included a few ideas below. This is […]
[Continue Reading]Vegetable Soup with Roasted Garlic & Chickpeas
I love making soups in winter! There is something really heart warming and healing about them. Plus, garlic makes everything taste better, I have 10 in this recipe, but you can add more. You can never have enough garlic. Roasting the chickpeas and garlic gives a beautiful rich flavour to the soup. A lovely winter […]
[Continue Reading]Christmas Meatballs
Merry Christmas! I love the Christmas season, especially when I am organised, have all my shopping done early and menu sorted. This year, none of that happened, the last few months have been a bit hectic (including moving house) and I still haven’t finished shopping or worked out what we are eating Christmas day. This […]
[Continue Reading]Jimmy’s Meatballs and Spaghetti
Everyone in our family has a set night that they cook dinner. I love getting everyone involved and they have to choose their menu before the grocery shop. My husband is a really good cook and I love it when he creates new dishes. We have watched a few cooking shows recently where the meatballs […]
[Continue Reading]Failsafe Mexican Nachos with Chokoacamole
This was a fun recipe to create. I was getting into a bad rut of making the same meals over and over, (I am sure you can relate…) one being my Failsafe mince in the Thermomix and serving it with pasta. With life so full and crazy with no mojo or time to create of […]

Finding treats and eggs suitable usually need to be purchased on line, way ahead […]

I have been wanting to try making chocolate bark for a while now. I knew it would be easy, but just one of those things I never got around to. After making it at our latest “Make it Merry” Thermomix cooking class, I had to attempt a failsafe diet version. It got a huge tick […]
[Continue Reading]Tiger Roll Cake
A Swiss roll tiger cake was the perfect choice for my youngest who doesn’t like cake and loves tigers. A Swiss roll doesn’t look like your traditional birthday cake and is a fun alternative. The best thing is, she actually ate it and enjoyed it! Hooray! It probably looks more like a snow leopard since […]
[Continue Reading]Tim Tams! Failsafe
This Australia Day it’s time to indulge a little, time for some delicious Aussie Treats! Tim Tams! I have always wanted to try to make a failsafe diet version, now seemed the perfect time to satisfy my sweet tooth. These got the thumbs up all round from my family. I hope yours will too. I used […]
[Continue Reading]Gin & Pear Cocktail & Mocktail
Happy New Year!! To help celebrate the new year, I thought it was time to indulge in a new cocktail for myself. Gin, whiskey and vodka are all spirits suitable for the failsafe diet. I have been in a rut of occasionally just drinking gin and lemonade lately, nothing wrong with that, but it needed […]
