Talk to me! Tell me what you want.

It’s not often we have the luxury of being asked – what do you want?

And while I imagine in many situations, that’s a loaded question for a list of unrealistic demands, in the world of RecipeTin Eats, it is somewhat more viable for me to deliver!

The list of recipe and food related ideas I have is long and never ending. New ideas get added every day, things get scratched off as I try and dismiss them. Only the very best, the ones I deem “blog worthy” (yep, that’s a technical term 😂) make it on my website.

The problem is, the number of blog-worthy dishes is very, very long. And there is only so much ground that one girl and her dog can cover.

Thus, I turn to you to ask –

Tell me what you want for 2021!

Or, what do you not want? You can ask for anything! Here are some ideas:

  • More greens, less meat

  • More fish!

  • Work lunch ideas

  • More Dozer (🤞🏼!)

  • Dietary specific recipes – low cal / low carb

  • Freezer friendly recipes

  • Complete menus – where I share starter/main/sides/dessert like this Arabian Nights Feast I did many years ago (and still rather popular to this day!)

  • Slow cooker recipes – the “set and forget” sort

I obviously cannot promise to give you absolutely everything you ask for. But I can promise that I will read every response, and what you say will shape the direction of RecipeTin Eats in 2021.

So, talk to me!! – Nagi x

PS Still taking dish specific requests on this page! This is a perpetual list that I use for inspiration, and sometimes I can provide links to recipes from other sources (if I’ve tried them) so you don’t have to wait for me!

PPS Just one thing I can’t deliver on –

🚫🍌 NO BANANA. The only “normal” food I can’t stand, a childhood hangover from all those years my mother would jam a banana in my lunchbox and there it would sit, festering in the Aussie summer heat (pre cooler-bag days) and the banana smell with infuse into everything in the lunchbox. Ever had a banana infused ham sandwich? Not good, my friends. Not good. 🤢

I find it thoroughly amusing that my mother is the master of bento box lunches but failed to even consider the most basic fundamentals of putting together a sandwich lunchbox.

And thus, I am scarred for life. No bananas!😇 (Blame mum)


Life of Dozer

Launching into 2021, Dozer style:

Dozer jumping into pool

And PS, wow, what a response to the Interview With Dozer!! Trust Dozer to close out 2020 with the single most commented on post of the year. Stealing my thunder – and I totally love it. 🥰

    Hi Nagi, I am new to your blog but am really inspired by your recipes & take on food. Like many others I am struggling with the “COVID COAT”, recipes for veggie side dishes with lots of oomph but lower in calories would be ideal, thanks.

    To be honest I can usually find whatever I’m looking for on your site. It’s my ‘go to’ these days. Maybe a cholesterol lowering selection would be useful. Other than that – love your work and I tell everyone when I get complements “It’s a Nagi recipe!” Love Dozer too, we are a canine family too. Happy New Year!

    I too loathe, abhor, hate bananas…childhood phobia. Is it possible to include gluten free particularly in a muffin recipe. Just one, where the ingredients fit a normal size Aussie muffin tin. For years, no, decades, I’ve tried without one single success to make muffins. My attempts are now family legend😚. All your recipes work in my kitchen, thanks. C

    I tried many of your recipes. They were good. My son is a lactose intolerance. But he loves cheese. Would you teach me how to make cheese cakes for him?

    Hi Nagi, I absolutely love, love, love all your recipes!! I recently got an Instant Pot and would be grateful for some pressure cooker recipes. If anyone can create some fantastic Instant Pot recipes, I know you can! Thanks for all your help in the kitchen – I couldn’t do it without you!

    Hi Nagi
    Your recipes are my first port of call when looking for a recipe & many are on regular rotation 😍
    I like to eat several vegetarian meals each week & your veggie burgers & veg lasagne are a hit with my family. I’m always looking for new vegetarian meals. Thankyou!

    Hey Nagi, Happy New Year! We love your recipes! So simple and tasty! Thank you! Meal planning for the week would be something I would love help with. Always saying the dreaded ‘what are we going to have for dinner tonight!’ and with ingredients we would have in the pantry and fridge. Also agree with low calorie, less sugar recipes but again we love your site! Thanks again! 🙂

    I love your recipes! I would like some vegetarian options that aren’t pasta and ‘make ahead’ dinner party ideas.
