Spinach, Coconut and Bean Curry

June 30, 2025

My budget series, Two Cheap, is back! This series is dedicated to delivering healthy, plant-based recipes that cost under $2 AUD per serve. To kick off the comeback, we’re starting with my creamy spinach, coconut, and bean curry, a dish that’s as simple to prepare as it is full of flavour. Begin by sautĂ©ing onion…

TVP Chilli Sin Carne

June 26, 2025

This high-protein chilli is one of my favourite dishes to meal prep because it takes minimal time and effort, packs so much flavour and packs over 30g of protein per serve. You can refrigerate or freeze it depending on when you want it and it’s best served with rice and avocado.

Sun-Dried Tomato Gnocchi Bake

June 24, 2025

Sun-dried tomato baked gnocchi might just be my new favourite comfort meal. Pillowy soft gnocchi baked in a rich sun-dried tomato sauce with garlic, herbs, and just the right amount of melty cheese on top. It’s one of those dishes that feels fancy but is secretly super easy (a blessing for my sweet sous-chef who’s…

Curried Carrot and Pumpkin Soup

June 18, 2025

A creamy, fragrant and comforting soup with a base of carrots and pumpkin. The root vegetables are roasted until tender and simply blended with all other ingredients to make a smooth and flavourful soup.

Spicy Peanut and Coconut Noodle Soup

May 14, 2025

A hot and hearty meal for when the weather starts getting chilly! A creamy and fragrant peanut broth with buckwheat noodles, crunchy pak choy and spicy TVP for protein. A big thanks to my sous chef and lover, Jy Simpkin, for helping me cook up this recipe on our beautiful getaway to Zoarii House in…

Vegan Japanese Curry

May 9, 2025

Warm, comforting, and packed with flavour, this easy Vegan Japanese Curry is a weeknight favorite! Featuring tender cubes of tofu, sweet carrots, and hearty potatoes simmered in a rich, mildly spiced curry sauce, it’s the perfect balance of savory and satisfying. Served over a fluffy bed of rice, this plant-based dish delivers all the cozy…

High-Protein Kale Pesto Pasta

May 5, 2025

A creamy kale pesto pasta with the sneaky additions of silken tofu and nutritional yeast to make it over 30g of protein per serve! Topped with kale chips for crunch and vegan feta for extra creaminess. 

Gochujang Rolled Noodles

April 6, 2025

Rolled noodles are my current obsession. They’re chewy, soft and quick to cook. Paired with a hot and creamy gochujang sauce for a punch of flavour and TVP for extra chewiness and protein. 

Vegan Palak Paneer

January 30, 2025

This is my take on Palak Paneer, minus the paneer and plus tofu. Traditionally, Palak Paneer consists of cooking paneer, an Indian cheese, in a rich and creamy spinach gravy. By swapping out the paneer for tofu, you still get to experience a similar taste, texture and amount of protein for a hearty mid-week dinner.…

High-Protein Miso Soba Noodle Salad

January 28, 2025

I’m a sucker for a noodle salad, especially when it packs the flavour and protein that this one does! Featuring soba noodles for the slurp factor, crispy baked tofu and edamame beans for protein and cucumber, spring onions, coriander and mint for freshness. The star of the salad is the miso tahini sauce, which is…
