You’ll be making your own sun-dried tomato pesto for this simple and full-flavored Creamy Pesto Chicken. If this sounds like it’s too much trouble, then use store-bought but, you’ll probably only need about 1/2 cup at most as store-bought pesto contains more salt so keep that in mind. Now I know the recipe has 3 […]

Batch Cooking Tomato Pasta Sauce is perfect for make-and-freeze it to have on hand for a […]
Trite as this might sound, Arugula Prosciutto Peach Salad is summer on a plate. Peaches at the peak of the season, young arugula – or rocket as Australians call it, basil leaves, homemade pesto (hopefully) speaks of sunshine, hot nights or days when you want something you don’t have to cook. Not only is this […]
Get ready to slurp & sip your way through this wholesome bowl of red Curry Pork Noodles. Spicy ground pork, ramen noodles piled high, baby Asian greens, crisp asparagus, strands of carrot nestle in a soothing bowl of coconut curry broth with a jammy egg sitting aloft. When I’m opting for convenience, I reach for […]
Teriyaki Sweet Chili Chicken and Spicy Cucumber Salad – this recipe was so popular on my old website – first Fresh Hunger before changing its name to Lovoni Walker.

The peachy mixture is piled on to toasted slices of a baguette with fresh mozzarella. Serve it as a starter with some […]

Peach Pecan Crumble Tart: puff pastry nestled into muffins pans filled with chopped peaches & topped with a brown sugar pecan crumble topping then baked until the pastry is golden & flaky & the topping caramelizes.

Although delicious spread on toast, Bourbon Peach Jam is also good served with ham & cheese for a salty-sweet kick. The combination of peaches & bourbon I have to say came rather late to this Aussie girl; here in the US of A, the peach & bourbon combo is a favorite. I will forever more […]
Grilled Lemon Oregano Lamb Chops take six minutes to grill then they bathe luxuriously in a post-grill marinade of lemon, garlic, chili and oregano. So simple but so succulent and flavorful. I like to serve these simple with steamed couscous & a simple Greek salad. A marinade is most commonly used prior to cooking but […]
Agua fresca loosely translated means ‘cool waters’. A non-alcoholic drink using fruits, seeds, cereals and flowers. As cucumber is botanically a fruit, Cucumber Lime Agua Fresca fits into this fruit category. Vividly green and refreshing, enjoy it as a non-alcoholic drink or, as I’ve done in the past, add tequila and either triple sec or […]
