So I’ve entered myself in a little competition called the Gourmet Garden Blog Off Cook Off!
I’m not sure how I’ll go, but I’m going to give it a red hot crack. The competition really appeals to me because I love to cook and I already use the Gourmet Garden products in most of my meals. I use them partly because they’re such a quick and easy alternative to keeping fresh herbs but mainly because I’m a bit crap at keeping fresh herbs alive.
So last week I received my little bundle of Gourmet Garden goodies and set about planning our meals for the week. Yes, I’m one of those pesky mothers who plans her cooking in advance. I know. I’m just as over myself as you are! But honestly, planning meals in advance really does save me time and money at the supermarket, which of course means more cashola for the important things in life…like shoes and handbags.
So long story short, this week I’ll be sharing my Gourmet Garden inspired recipes with you. The good people at Gourmet Garden will be watching closely to see what I’m whipping up and hopefully one or two of my recipes will appear on their website.
And then, with any luck, I might even advance to the next round which will mean participating in a ‘Cook Off’ at the Brisbane Good Food and Wine Show. Which would be both terrifying and exciting. But I’m definitely up for the challenge!
Do you love to cook, action meal plans & use herbs too? Or are you more like my mother whereby the only thing you like to make for dinner is a reservation?
