This month is a month for favorites. Or is that favourites? However you spell it, chickpea wraps are one of our favourites. And you know why? Because they include wraps. And chickpeas. Chickpea wraps. The name is quite fitting. Something else that’s a favourite of ours are recipes that are …

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in our time of recipe creation then it’s to listen to others. This easy green bean salad is another classic – not designed by us, but rather by Hauke’s grandma. Yep. Not the grandma of creamy cucumber salad fame, but rather the other grandma. …

Sometimes decadence is important. And this leek risotto is decadent. And important. Don’t get us wrong – we eat healthy food all the time, and know the incredible value of it. It’s imperative to our well-being and health. Nutrition is something we take seriously, and indeed, pride ourselves on. Our …

Cucumber Sandwiches – the Dos and Don’ts This cucumber sandwich with cream cheese recipe started out as a bit of fun, but we soon realised that cucumber sandwiches are a pretty serious recipe. Well, in relative terms anyway. I’ve eaten a lot of sandwiches in my life – as I …

We do get quite obsessed with things here at HurryTheFoodup. Tempeh Salad is our new love. Our first foray into tempeh came about relatively recently – and it was a revelation. Before starting the 30 Day Vegan Challenge, we teamed up with Christine – long-time vegan and talented cook. It …

This falafel salad recipe really made us think. Is it ok to use falafel mix? Or even pre-packaged falafel? For the most part we really do like to promote whole foods over processed – they generally have more flavour, they’re cheaper and pack more of nutritional punch. But sometimes, we …

You may have noticed a slight trend recently. Over the last few weeks we’ve spent some time to really pull back on ingredients to see what could be made with whole, easy to find healthy foods. This carrot and apple salad is one such recipe. So, Hauke phoned his mom …

You’d be forgiven if you think we’re obsessed with broccoli and cauliflower. Not only do we now have broccoli and cauliflower soup, we also have a broccoli and cauliflower salad, and a roasted Mediterranean broccoli and cauliflower bake. That’s a lot of broccoli and cauliflower. And you know why? Because …

The Sunday lunch highlight at my Grandma’s place wasn’t the roast for me. Nope, it was the cucumber salad. I know, children might have odd food preferences, but that salad was what I was looking forward to when visiting my grandparents (well, foodwise). Funny enough, when I still had no, …

Ah dates. That flurry of excitement, of expectation. The buzz of the unknown, and the possibilities still to come. The…oh wait. Well, date smoothies are still exciting! Right? Delicious, certainly, when made this way. We’re in complete denial that summer is coming to an end, whatever the looming rain clouds …

This healthy sweet potato mash recipe was one born out of pure frustration. After looking around online almost every ‘healthy’ mashed sweet potato dish was most definitely not; they’re all covered in cream, slathered in butter or drowned in milk. Or if they avoid dairy then they’re stocked in sugar …

Vegan food rocks. We know that, and have done for a long time. But to some, and even with awesome recipes like this roasted & creamy corn soup, vegan food still has a stigma to get over. It shouldn’t be that way, but it is. No matter, we’re here to …

Up until a few years ago, I barely ate salad and even today it has to be something special to grab me. This watermelon and feta salad is something special. It goes without saying that watermelon and feta salad is perfect for the summer when watermelons are at their sweetest …

Although we’re not yet called ‘currythefoodup’, it has crossed my mind. With this onion chutney on board, I believe we now have three dips and chutneys, and six different curries available on site. There’s literally something for everyone. In case you hadn’t guessed, we love curry and its related edibles. …

Every now and then I’m allowed to write a new post (and therefore new recipe) about curry. Kat and Hauke keep it under tight control as otherwise every second recipe on the site would be curry. Who am I kidding? It would be every recipe. I love curry and this …

Summer is here – and we need this recipe. Salads can be great, but we’re often left begging for more. That’s where coconut curry lentil soup steps up. It keeps that summer spirit high with its fusion of tropical coconut and smooth curry, complementing it with a juicy multivitamin twist. …
