These indulgent yet super healthy sweet treats are so easy to make.
Omnia cheddar & spring onion loaf
One of my all time favourite comfort foods is a cheese and onion crisp sandwich using white bread. This loaf brings back those memories of this after school snack with the gentle flavours of the cheese and onion.
Chickpea, sweet potato & nettle stew
This turned out amazing when I missed the shops and just had to make something good from what I had in.
Seafood feast.

Tomatillo Salsa
We never imagined making tomatillo salsa would be this easy!
First, you just need to find the tomatillos in the grocery store. At Whole Foods, they are in the refrigerated produce section. Tomatillos are sold in the store in their husks. You can also find them at local farmers markets in the summer.
Garlic Damper
As a Australian school kid I remember being taken to the local park and learning how to make Damper and Billy Tea, there are many recipes, some use milk, even lemonade or beer, this is a simple one with only water. They are traditionally baked in a Camp Oven in the coals of a open fire
The addition of garlic powder to a make it a perfect accompaniment to pasta

Vegetable Burritos
I take back what I said about eggs being the perfect food. In fact, burritos are the perfect food First of all, you can make ANYTHING into a burrito. I’ve even made burritos out of peanut butter, apples, and trail mix. Because let’s face it, everything tastes better when it’s wrapped in a delicious flour tortilla. Premade burritos are an excellent trail food because they are super filling, very portable, and pretty cheap depending on what you put in them. A basic rice, veggie & cheese burrito can cost less $3 per portion and is one of the most nutritious meals you can eat. They can be made in one pot and enjoyed immediately, or wrapped up in tin foil for a summit snack. You can also easily modify this recipe to make tacos instead!
