Heya, I’m Belinda Maiden!

The aim of my website is to share food that is both quick and easy to make, yet healthy and nutritious while keeping an eye on the budget! It is a lot to juggle, I know. 🙂

I started my food journey with my picky first born eater. Like many mothers, I wanted to serve healthy and nutritious food for my kids, but my first born was such a fussy eater.

This website started many years ago as a place to share recipes with friends and family and it just grew and grew. I am still working on updating the recipes from the archives. These days some of my favorite recipes are:

• My banana bread without baking soda as it is a bit of a challenge to get it to rise properly.
• This amazing mexican sour cream dip with avocado – don’t tell anybody but sometimes I serve it as a main meal!
• A new additional to my cooking arsenal is my coconut macaroons with only 3 ingredients, super easy to make and oh so delicous.
• I taught my kids how to make pikelets and now they whip up these delicious treats for me after school.

I hope you enjoy my site! My family and I also love to travel, you can catch up on all of our travel adventures over at The Global Curious.

Food and happy times.
