Oven Baked Parmesan and Wild Herb Zucchini

Oven Baked Parmesan and Wild Herb Zucchini

We tasted these at a friend's dinner party and these crisp, tender zucchini wedges are just so good! They are truly addictive and one of the best ways by far to cook zucchini. It’s healthy, nutritious and completely more-ish! This recipe will make 4 serves as a side dish - but they are so good just on their own!   4 zucchini, washed, dried and quartered lengthwise  1/2 cup freshly and finely grated Parmesan 1/2 teaspoon Anisata 1/2 teaspoon Lemon Myrtle  1/2 teaspoon Mountain Pepper 1/2 teaspoon thyme  1/4 teaspoon garlic powder  Wild herb Salt and freshly ground black pepper,...

Outback Spirit Pizza Margherita

Outback Spirit Pizza Margherita

A classic pizza originating in Naples - a thin crust pizza and the three major ingredients, tomatoes, mozzarella and basil reflect the colours of Italy's flag (just a little trivia!)  A few ingredients make this perfectly delicious pizza so good. we recommend uysing a pizza stone (as most of us don't have on hand a wood fired pizza oven!) . The advantage of using a pizza stone is that after preheating the stone, the pizza dough instantly comes into contact with a high-temperature surface, which crisps the crust, enables quicker cooking, promotes a more even distribution of heat, and creates...
