Is it just me or do my eggs look like they are hav

Is it just me or do my eggs look like they are having a jolly good laugh together? Maybe they are taking great delight in the fact that something very quick and simple to throw together may just have been the most gloriously messy and delicious treat this Nellie ate all last week.
A warm masa harina tortilla with some green goddess yoghurt that was leftover in the fridge, undressed spinach leaves, coriander and two perfectly poached eggs. I am glad I ate this on my own. I forwarn you, it's a messy sport.
Happy Meatless Monday lovely friends.

** NEW RECIPE You might remember back in January,

** NEW RECIPE
You might remember back in January, we were running some speciality classes to assist in raising money for the Bushfire appeals. They have all been incredible. Today is our last of these, and I want to share how incredibly grateful I am to all who pledged and all who attended. I want to thank my fantastic team who have given up their valuable time to work & support in these classes, free of charge and so that every cent goes to where it was needed most. Saving the best until last.....one enormous thank you to Dean and Bianca Coates. Dean and Bianca were the winners of our silent auction to win a private class for ten guests. We are going to have so much fun today as we cook up a Mexican fiesta and treat them to a private lunch with their friends.
This little Mexican ceviche fish number is working it's magic and 'cooking in the citrus juices as a little starter for these lovely people joining us today. It will be served on top of home-made masa harina tortillas as well as chipotle mayo and lot of tasty little morsels on top. Sharing the recipe here for you in thanks for your support.
Recipe over on the blog.
Happy Sunday everyone 𝘅

The energy in our classes is always changing. Befo

The energy in our classes is always changing.
Before class, I am always looking forward to who we will meet. I am mindful though of how they might be feeling as they are heading to us. Are they nervous, excited, unsure, pumped? Very likely, it is a little and a lot of each.
With this in mind, I love it when our guests reach the top of the stairs & take in our space. I can see their faces and bodies relax. There is often a lovely warm smile and an even bigger one when they are offered a glass of bubbles and made to feel welcome. I adore watching my beautiful team in action - they are the warmest & most genuinely hospitable people and for me, observing them being their warm selves, gives me such pride. They represent all that Relish Mama is about.
Last night, was a tricky beginning. I was a first-up idiot. It was my bbq class & when I lit one of the grills, with no result - I declared we must be out of gas. Getting ready to change the gas bottle, one kind fella bought it to my attention the knobs weren't on. Well......wasn't that an awkward & embarrassing moment...I have only been doing this like FOREVER!
Last night we welcomed a lovely small group & they were a little quiet to begin. The teacher in me questions myself. Am I giving them what they need/want? Are they still concerned that they are in the hands of a fool that didn't turn the bbq knobs on? Who could blame them? 😉
Last night ended up rather special. It unfolded into something super lovely.
I feel really grateful to meet the people that choose us. They might arrive with uncertainty but they put their trust in us and what that means...is huge and carries a big responsibility that we don't & won't take for granted. The pleasure and the privilege of meeting these guests is the very reason that I started Relish Mama. Thank you to all who joined us last night but also & especially to all that have become friends over the years. Nellie 💛

This is our Vietnamese chicken salad. It is loaded

This is our Vietnamese chicken salad. It is loaded with goodness and freshness and comes with a separate 'zingy' (and bloody wonderful, if I might add) dressing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This salad makes you feel really good.....we can promise you that. It's not on the sticker that goes on the dish but it is our promise, just the same. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thanks for all the amazing feedback from those of you who ordered our home-cooked meals this week and last week.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Orders close midnight tonight (Thursday 27th February) for next weeks delivery. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

One of my daughters showed me this a while back & we were in hysterics.
The original does have a word that's not allowable on Instagram (which did add to the humour) but... keeping it clean because one should when one is posting.
Hope it makes you giggle too 😂

We’ve had an incredible day in the kitchen. We’ve been preparing incredible home-cooked ready-made meals that we will deliver to homes tomorrow.
These are big days but golly...it’s a dream come true to get our meals to you.
In the kitchen itself...Sall’s infectious humour keeps it revved up and laughing all day and Shelley’s ‘can do’ attitude.... I applaud and adore. .
Catherine then often steps up ( & out of office mode) to do what Catherine does ....and that’s to go above and beyond for the people she loves and supports. God I love that woman. .
My husband... don’t even get me started but this fella has done more dishes and labeled more packages then he could have ever dreamed (or make that... had a nightmare) these past 2 weeks. .
We’ll be delivering tomorrow. Thanks one hundred gazillion times to those supporting us. I’m so, so happy with what we’ve cooked this week.... man... there’s so much love in these dishes!
I’d you’d like us to cook for you next week.... order by midnight this Thursday ✖️
Head to our Insta stories to see just a sample of some of the finished and sustainably packaged dishes

Mint is having a wonderful time in our garden this

Mint is having a wonderful time in our garden this Summer. The intense heat one day & then the torrential rain the next is allowing this gorgeous herb to go a whole lot of 'nuts'. I do really love playing with herbs. They never fail to add a little magic to every dish, every single time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today, I have cooked up roasted vegetables with an extra minty chermoula and a delicious tahini infused yoghurt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Recipe over on the blog, .should you too find yourself in a minty frenzy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Happy Meatless Monday & wishing you a really special week ahead. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

How do I like my eggs....so many ways but ....in a cake......hell...yeah!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lemon, rosemary & ricotta bundt cake from the Relish Mama' Family' cookbook. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There's something about a bundt cake to me that is celebratory, old fashioned and just really, really lovely.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have never added ricotta to your cakes, your life is just about to change. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Happy Sunday beautiful friends 💛
