Easy pork belly stir fried noodles


I've been having a craving for noodles for a while recently since we've been having a lot of leftovers after a particularly large batch of fish curry. Who knew that the recipe would cook such a large batch of curry? Not me! Anyway, we've diligently made our way through all the fish curry leftovers and I was more than ready for something different. I always love noodles and really, I like to have noodles at least once a week or I go into withdrawals. I had pork belly in the fridge and decided to throw this together. We do have leftovers though but I've reduced the recipe so that it serves four instead of eight here.

Easy fish curry


The Boy asked for fish recently and I was kind enough to oblige by making him a fish curry. Turns out he wanted slabs of grilled or baked fish with vegetables. Hah. Too bad. He had to eat the fish curry. Incidentally, it was a super delicious fish curry. And so easy to make.

Rainbow pasta salad



This dish started about a week ago when I had some leftover duck from a meal out and I was trying to figure out what to do with it. I decided on a simple pasta salad with some bow pasta I had. It turned out to be delicious. The bright colors from the spring onions and tomatoes make this dish not only tastes but bright and fun too. It's like eating the rainbow.

Creamy tomato pesto and chicken pasta


Every now and then I fall back on an easy favorite. Some form of pesto pasta. Recently, when I went to the store, they didn't have basil pasta, so I ended up with tomato pesto instead. I did what I usually do with pesto and pasta and this I think turned out even tastier than my usual basil pesto pasta. I might like it a little better than the basil version and if you want basil pesto instead of tomato, just switch it out. Easy peasy.

Hurricane cocktail with a twist


The Boy suggested we make a Hurricane cocktail. Of course, I take the opportunity to turn anything I can into a frozen cocktail because that's what I like. This one turned out great and I love the frothy, frozen texture. It went down a treat too.
