    • Cannellini Bean Salad

      Lunches at cooking school are a fickle event. You never know when they will be, or if you will be granted a break at all. One day it may be at 10.30am and the next at 2pm. Some days you may be ravenous by 9am, particularly if there’s a class baking bread next door. The smells wafting through are pure torture, I’m telling you. Other days you may be put off food so much that you never want to eat again, have no appetite whatsoever, despite having eaten nothing since 6.30am. You get the picture. Lunches are up, down and all over the place.  What is predictable, however, is that I will always enjoy eating this cannellini bean salad, regardless of the time of day or my state of hunger. It took me a while to realise that salads can actually be, well, exciting. Crazy, I know. I was a pretty good kid and always ate my veg without much cajoling.

      I’m of the opinion that every household should have at least one never-fail bog-standard one-pot-wonder recipe kept up their sleeve. Preferably one that can be made in industrial sized quantities and frozen – just for those nights when all you want to do is collapse on the couch and never move again. Of course, take-away might appear to be the more obvious solution in these circumstances, but unless you pay for delivery that option involves going somewhere and at the very least calling up to place your order. Though nowadays more and more places are offering ‘order online’ options, so technically in some cases you don’t even have to call up. I’m still trying to wrap my head around that. Heck, until I was eleven we lived in a country town so small that there was no takeaway option. Frozen pizza singles were as exciting as it got. Continue reading →
