Smoky baked beans

Is there anything more satisfying than having some flavour-packed baked beans to look forward to for breakfast? These fully loaded baked beans take advantage of paprika-laden chorizo sausage, as well as the piquancy of tomatoes, to offer a warming bowl of beans that are much grander than the sum of their parts (which, let’s face it, simply involves opening a few tins and stirring ). If you’d prefer to go chorizo-free, that’s totally cool – just up the olive oil, paprika and cumin factor and we’ll call it square

I used to swear by soaking, but a Mexican friend told me he never soaks and his beans are perfect, they just take a bit longer. So here is a non-soaking, gluten free recipe, with my mom’s flavours.

Butternut Hummus with Feta and Roasted Seeds

Butternut squash are grown and easily accessible all year round in South Africa. I love using butternuts in cooking, baking, and easy eating like this hummus recipe. Butternuts are sweet, creamy and pair very well with salty and sweet dishes. They are packed with vitamins, minerals, fibre, and antioxidants that our bodies need to function properly and are also low in calories. I serve this hummus as part of a grazing board with crusty, as a spread for sandwiches or as a dip with raw vegetables. *
