The curated shelf

Great recipes from kitchens we trust

Hand-picked recipes and collections from the sites Australian home cooks actually use — Taste, RecipeTin Eats, SBS Food, delicious., BBC Good Food, Jamie Oliver — plus dietitian-backed picks from the Heart Foundation and Eat for Health. Filter by diet or health goal, then cook it at the source; we link straight to the original page.

Pal: I read these so you don't have to. Pick a diet and a goal and I'll narrow the shelf.

Recipes stay on the publications’ own sites — we curate and tag them, we don’t copy them. Tags are a guide to how a recipe is usually written; check the ingredient list on the original page against your own allergies and goals, and adjust portions to your plate.
