Inspirational recipes and ideas from packed lunchboxes to picnic dinners. Norfolk island is unique in that it grows all of its fresh produce locally without importing from else where. We all enjoy fresh food when available but become frustrated with availability during the off season. Here we hope to inspire with new and old ideas when there is little about.

Growing our own~ fresh paw paw
Golden paw paw picked fresh from the tree, they are delicious and vitamin packed which is especially helpful at this time of year with coughs, colds and flu's going around.
We were surprised when this little beauty from our front yard tree also had a pretty shape on the inside. We hadn't seen this perfect flower shape before.

In the meantime, its time to make fruit salad with paw paws, passionfruit and bananas (plun) are beginning to be plentiful again.
Pop some paw paw squares and banana rounds on a skewer, roll in coconut add a vanilla yoghurt and fresh passionfruit dipping sauce.
Not just for lunchboxes...good enough for desserts or pot luck dinner parties.
