Slow Cooked Apricot Pork …

This recipe for Slow Cooked Apricot Pork is an absolute winner for me because it’s just sooooo easy and only needs 6 ingredients! It’s one of those dishes that is perfect for a night when I know I’ve got a lot going on and I won’t have much time to cook dinner. I often prepare this dish the night before putting all the ingredients in the slow cooker bowl, covering and refrigerating until morning. Then all I need to do is put the dish in the slow cooker, flick the “on” switch and dinner takes care of itself … not only that, it’s absolutely delicious … love it! … read more

Slow Cooker Barbecue Pork Ribs …

January 15, 2018

For years, we’ve visited a local Gold Coast restaurant which serves, among other things, a kilo of Pork Ribs as one of its menu items. My husband has ordered those Ribs every single time and raved how they were “finger lickin’ good” as he gnawed every ounce of meat from the bones. I’d never cooked Ribs before but decided to give it a go a few months ago. Boy, am I glad I did, as these now feature regularly on my Meal Plans and are so easy to make it’s ridiculous. Only 5 ingredients make up the delicious sauce and the slow cooker does all the work … now that’s my … read more

And if crackling leaves you salivating then the tender, succulent, melt-in-the-mouth pork in this recipe will leave you speechless. Pork Belly has become really popular in the last few years and this is my absolute favourite way to cook it.

Slow Cooked Asian Style Pulled Pork …

May 14, 2016

I love my slow cooker because it makes my life so much easier. Toss together a few ingredients, add some meat and dinner literally takes care of itself … and what’s not to love about that! You can use pork shoulder for this recipe (or any of your favourite cuts of pork) but usually use Pork Fillet. It is typically a more expensive cut of pork but I’ve recently started buying it from Aldi. At $19.99/kg it’s much cheaper than the butcher or supermarket and the quality is just as good! I prefer using the fillet because it’s boneless and trimmed of literally … read more

Curried Roast Pork Fillet …

March 24, 2016

Whenever I need a quick and easy dinner, I find it hard to go past a roast. I like it because I can peel and chop the vegetables in the morning, then when it’s time to start prepping for dinner, I can simply toss the vegetables in a little oil and put them in the oven in a baking dish. The meat also goes into a baking dish in the oven and in 45 minutes to an hour dinner is ready. Mostly I will roast potato, pumpkin, onion, capsicum and whole cloves of garlic and then I’ll steam maybe broccoli, corn and carrot. When I’m feeling really energetic, I’ll whip up my Easy … read more

Hawaiian Pork Soft Tacos …

November 5, 2015

This is a fabulous twist on a traditional taco. which will definitely leave everyone wanting more. The recipe does call for pork but I actually used a mince from Coles that was a blend of 70% pork and 30% beef and it was delicious. Just be sure to cook off as much of the juice as possible otherwise it will make the soft taco sloppy to eat. Enjoy!

Bacon, Zucchini and Vegetable Slice …

June 24, 2015

This is an absolute crowd pleaser that is on high rotation in our house. I love making this Bacon, Zucchini and Vegetable Slice because it will not only put a smile on everyone’s face at dinnertime but I always end up with leftovers for everyone’s lunch the next day. That saves me time and also gives the kids some variety so that they enjoy their lunches. This particular recipe is quite large so I generally cook it in two dishes … one for dinner and one for lunches. This is also a recipe that comes in handy for large family lunches and barbecues. It’s so quick … read more

Pork and Vegetable Sausage Rolls … Homemade …

February 6, 2015

I love making my own sausage rolls because I get to create using beautiful fresh ingredients without any nasty preservatives. They’re also a versatile snack because you can add whatever vegetable you have in the fridge and add or take away whatever your family doesn’t like. I often make these for lunch or dinner on a Sunday as they are a quick and easy meal and I also get enough for the kids lunches on a Monday. I’m lucky that they will eat these cold and they are a perfect alternative to their traditional sandwiches and wraps. My kids love these and I have to say, … read more
