These muffins goes really well with simple soup or just as a snack on their own. They come out light and fluffy despite having a lot of cheese in them and he taste is exactly how’d you expect it. This is also a one bowl wonder so it takes all of 10 minutes to come together and makes a full dozen muffins.
Recipe: Onion Tart
If you wanted a tart with a distilled onion flavor, this is it. I’m always looking for ways to use caramelized onions because they’re so delicious and this might be the ultimate way to use them. It’s the perfect tart with just a hint of sweetness that keeps it tasting fresh.

Only one more week before our families will be here and I’m not sure how lunches will be after that but this was a perfectly normal week so lunches ahoy:
Harrisa spiced couscous with cucumber raita, plums and gooseberries
Spinach quiche, salad, carrots and dip, apple
Roasted chicken thigh, mashed potatoes, grapes and gooseberries, salad
Vegetable Pad Thai, salad, apple
Dum aloo, rice, salad, apple
Menu: Long Vacation
This is probably my last menu for a three or four weeks since we’ll have family in town until almost mid-September (and then we go on vacation just a week or two after that! Hectic!) but it’s a good one. I have recipes queued until the end of August but I’m not sure if I’ll manage to make any more between now and then so this blog might be a little silent until October.

Recipe: Vegetable Hummus Wraps
I don’t usually feel like you need a recipe to make a wrap but this was a great combo of ingredients so I’m going to let it slide this one time. Please make this very simple and delicious wrap (I made it with lavash because that’s what available here but you can make it with tortillas or wraps or whatever thin bread products you have around).

Weekly Lunches: #12
I actually made new recipes for this week which is amazing because I don’t think I’ve made anything new for almost a month. I know that a lot of my inspiration will come back when the weather cools down and I think having a month off (when family comes to visit) should help too.

Black bean and squash chili, salad, cheddar chive muffins, apple
Falafel with yogurt sauce, spiced couscous, kiwi, grapes
Pasta bake, salad, kiwi
Cheese pizza, salad, nectarine
Menu: The Daystar
The heat just keeps chugging on so I’m keeping this weeks menu simple so I don’t get too frustrated about cooking in to heat (can you imagine trying to make pasta when you’re sweating too much to hold on to things?).

I want to get back in to making new recipes but it’s been so overwhelmingly hot that I haven’t felt like being anywhere near the kitchen for almost two weeks. Once the temperature dips a little hopefully it’ll rally my desire for novelty in the kitchen.

Honestly if I did this without having to write something each time I’d probably post them more regularly. It’s why I can post them every day to my Instagram but somehow the 5 minutes it takes to make an entry here seems like way too much. Whatever, here’s food!
Black bean quesadillas, salad, peach
Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, salad, apple
Pelmini, carrots and hummus, apple
Aloo dohi, rice, salad, kiwi
Mac and cheese, apple
