My Recipes
Here are some of my recipes. I plan to have a lot more as I get around to it.
Chickpeas with Tomato & Spinach
This meal takes less than 30 minutes to make and is easy and very tasty. It’s vegetarian and gluten free! Great on it’s own or as a side dish.
Pasta Bake
My pasta bake is one of those meals which is great for leftovers and lunches and hungry boy’s midnight snacks! You can have it as a main with a salad or as a side dish.
Cherry Brandy & Strawberry Punch
This Cherry Brandy & Strawberry Punch is great for parties and gatherings. Easy to make and very delicious. You won’t have any left over!
Pumpkin Soup
Make a big pot of hot, steaming pumpkin soup and watch them come back for seconds! This recipe is so easy – the family will love it.
Individual Dip Cups
Everyone loves dips at a party – but no one loves the double-dippers! Problem solved.. your own individual dip and veggie cup!
Blue Punch
Sure it looks like ‘Windex’ but it’s a delicious drink for a gathering. Make a punch bowl full and watch is disappear. Made it at our son’s 21st birthday party recently.
Thai Green Chicken Curry
My family love this Thai green chicken curry, it’s full of veggies and is quite spicy. For a Thai night make my Tom Yum soup for entree.
Ukrainian Beetroot Relish
We make this dish each year for Ukrainian Easter. The horseradish gives it a really good ‘punch’. This is my mum’s recipe.
Spicy Lentil Soup
This spicy lentil soup is really easy to make and is great for cold, winter days. The family will definitely come back for seconds.
Lemon Pepper Pita Crisps
This is my sister Maria’s recipe which I have ‘pinched’ and now make more often than she does! They’re great with dips and salsa or on their own.
Olya’s Tom Yum Soup
One of my recipes which is considered a ‘big hit’. My nephews always request I make this soup when we are all at the snow at Mt Hotham.
Steven and Ivan’s Mussel Soup
The brothers Lutrov (snr) make this delish soup for us a couple of times every year. They normally have to make a massive pot of this as everyone goes for seconds!
Mexican Mince with Rice
A tasty, hearty dish. Leftovers are great for uni lunches and post-sport and music gig meals. Make a great midnight snack for hungry boys..
Pasta Salad
Great salad to make when you need to ‘bring a plate’ to a BBQ, party or picnic. A little goes a long way so it’s good when there are lots of people to feed.
