Salad, salmon and sugar

Helloooo! Time for an update I think! Things have been fairly busy lately but still been eating lots of yummy food! Have been having some gorgeous hot weather the past few days so have been having a ball. Not so much baking, but plan to do some this week for a fundraising bake sale - so stay tuned!

No recipe for this delicious pumpkin salad unfortunately but it contains - roast pumpkin, cubed cream cheese (cooked in the oven until slightly browned), baby spinach, sundried tomatoes, risoni and the dressing consists of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and a touch of sugar. Yum! Nuts would also be nice in this.

Salmon baked with a little olive oil, a sprig of thyme and some lime slices. 

 Mongolian Beef! Really love this recipe! The meat was a tad tough so may need to cook the beef separately and add it back in towards the end (and add the cornflour separately). Added broccoli and shitaake mushrooms and had it with brown rice. Mmmm.

Hot pot with friends at uni!!! My first experience of it. Really quite cool! We had dumplings, bok choy, beef, fish balls etc, udon noodles, rice noodles and all the sauces.

This was my attempt of the Mississippi Mud Pie for my brothers birthday. I failed to make the pudding set properly (I suspect I didn't boil it for long enough as it was really too runny after sitting in the fridge for half the day). Still good! Popped it in the freezer and have been enjoying it frozen!!

Random lunch - oat mountain bread wrap with lemon-pepper tinned salmon mixed with cottage cheese, grated carrot and iceberg lettuce.

Some Koko Black chocolates I was given for motivation during exams! So good. I didn't get a pic of the one in the little box but it was a salted caramel choc. The others included truffles, raspberry dark choc, strawberry filled, pistachio, 2x almond ones....

 Special K + Sultana Bran, soy milk, gold kiwi and luscious strawberries
Berry yoghurt, museli, Apple Jacks, fresh blueberries, strawberries, mango, gold kiwi.

Tried the new Vegemite chips! I know many people weren't big fans but I really like them!!!! Excuse the other grocery items :P

Cya people!!!
