I was watching a show last night where this guy travelled to an Italian restaurant along the Amalfi coast I think it was… he had zucchini pasta and said it changed his life!
So I searched and found the recipe … that’s on my “to cook” list soon.

Here it is! Amazing simple few ingredients and vegetarian.

Well…. I’ve started on this recipe!
Zucchini cut up and fried in sunflower oil (specified that oil so I had to rush out to shop to buy it)
Tomorrow night will be the reporting result.

So much effort

Char grill some halved Zucs and serve with pasta.

You know what, I will do that next time, char grill zucchini or even maybe eggplants and see how it compares.

I bought chicken, snags, scotch fillet, and rump steak. I brought my happy little bundle of goodies home and look forward to trying it out.

OMG yes!
I’m so delighted.
I’ve been put off meat for ages it seems. Since all the revealing back then of grain feedlots and how cows are injected with anti biotics, this that ‘n the other.

I’ve returned to buying meat but from pillar to post, buying meat and it was either tough and grissly or not much flavour as I remember. Even at restaurants I finally gave buying the meat menu a try hoping for some redemption and it was a nightmare! I was so disappointed. I decided to stick to the usual fish meals.

So, after thinking and searching I found an organic butcher in Belgrave, but still that certain meat flavour wasn’t there. Then I realised they never specified grain fed or grass fed. Naturally I’m safely assuming grain fed since it’s disappointing lack of flavour.

I searched the internet to find only 2 butchers that are organic and grass fed.
How excited I was!

This one I went to is in The Basin (at the foothills of the Olinda mountains).
Now it’s not cheap and I’m willing to pay if it’s good.
Last night I couldn’t resist.
I cut a bit off the rump steak and simply fried in a little olive oil. Added some Himalayan salt and pow!
There it was!
That flavour I remembered from long ago!

Oh days of joy!

And…. I also have a fishmonger that sells only Australian fish (yes expensive again) but wow it’s amazing!

How happy am I

Less meat likely good for me at my age, good for my wallet, maybe even good for the planet. Because of this I only buy quality meat, mostly from Scottsdale or the bulk butcher for bigger scale cooking/preserving.
