Feijoa, Apple & Chocolate Crumble

I have to say feijoas would be up there as one of my favourite fruits! Most Kiwi’s have there own (or a close neighbour) that has a feijoa tree. When they are in season (April-May), don’t waste them! Stew them up and have for dessert everynight with yoghurt or freeze for future use. I create […]

Miso Ginger Fish with Corn & Avocado Salad

This salad will be a […]
