Fundraiser for August :)


The cause is a really good one.
I'm baking up a storm for Australian Red Cross, a cause that is close to my heart and I would welcome any contribution, great or small, that you could make!


All donations to this site are electronically wired to Australian Red Cross and an automatic receipt is emailed to you immediately.

Help me bake the world a better place by making a donation - every little bit helps to reach my modest target of $200.

My promise to sponsors: Donations above $50, will receive a cake order or cupcake order at a date of your choice! Contact me to arrange!

Thank you for your support!

Quick winter salads

Fast & easy side dish to off set any meat or just a healthy vegetarian main meal!

Ingredients
2 beetroot
1/2 a medium Spanish red onion
100 g walnuts halved
200 g baby spinach or mixed leaf salad
100 g Danish feta
Salt/pepper to taste

Method
1. Peel & quarter the beetroot
2. Place beetroot & onion in TM bowl. Speed 5, 3-4 seconds.
3. Add walnuts, whole block feta and chop at Speed 3, 2 seconds.
4. Place salad green in bowl / plate.
5. Scoop out salad & apportion onto plate for presentation. Serve with toasted Turkish bread for a main meal lunch :)


Sprinkle salt & pepper if you'd like. I found the fresh sweet taste of the beetroot, the salt in feta & the bite of the Spanish red onion was enough.
