Green Olive Tapenade For Bruschetta

Feb 11, 2019Jan 9, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 18 Comments

I had not planned on making a green olive tapenade. But when it came to deciding what else to add to my vegan feast this seemed like a good choice. I had green olives in the pantry from a FOMO box, and I always have capers and anchovies in my fridge. Head straight on to … Continue reading Green Olive Tapenade For Bruschetta

Recipe For Vegetable Pasta Sauce

Sep 28, 2018Aug 28, 2018 ~ Tandy ~ 6 Comments

Wanting to highlight the egg free pasta that I made I went for a very simple vegetable pasta sauce. A lot of the flavour of this dish came from the pasta itself. It takes a very short time to prepare which is how I like my Sunday night suppers to be. Head straight on to … Continue reading Recipe For Vegetable Pasta Sauce

Recipe For Quiche

May 26, 2014May 9, 2017 ~ Tandy ~ 22 Comments

I have been making the same quiche recipe for the past 20 years. I don't usually use a base for my quiches as I really cannot see the point in doing so. When ever I am asked to bring a dish with to a tea party I always offer to do something savoury and a quiche … Continue reading Recipe For Quiche

We have explored the beaches from right up the West Coast all the way along to Natal. My favourite … Continue reading Recipe For Mediterranean Pasta

I am sitting here with the wind blowing and the sky overcast, feeling a little bit sad. My Boxer had been sick for two weeks and as I typed this, they did not know what was wrong with her. In July of 2002 I went to choose a puppy at the breeder's house. They had … Continue reading Paella Recipe
