Fresh, filling and loaded with colours and textures, this is the perfect salad for work lunches or entertaining. Unlike most grains, freekeh is packed full of flavour, taking on a delicious smoky flavour. If you don’t have freekeh, use any other grain you have at home. Serve this with your choice of protein.
Two Raw Sisters, Margo and Rosa Flanagan, love making salads fun and exciting to eat. In this delicious sweet salad, the ‘grain’ component is the Anzac cookies, the ‘dressing’ is the burnt caramel yoghurt and the ‘fruit and vegetable’ element is the roasted strawberries with fresh mint. Just like a savoury salad, it’s perfect for sharing.

The creamy, green sauce in this delicious pasta dish is packed full of flavours. Imagine hints of garlic, lemon zest, miso and buttery pine nuts, all in one mouthful. This fresh, light pasta is sure to impress anyone and tastes great hot or cold!

This Two Raw Sisters soup is amazing during the colder months of the year. Roasted kumara and carrots are delicious with the fragrant fresh ginger and turmeric, curry powder and miso. Add a dollop of creamy coconut yoghurt to tie everything together.
Passionfruit and honey are a match made in heaven. This Two Raw Sisters recipe is a life hack for anyone who doesn’t have a high-speed blender. Rather than using raw cashews and being left with a gritty texture, use cashew butter. All the tough blending is done for you, and no matter what type of equipment you have, the filling will always be super smooth and creamy.
Margo and Rosa of Two Raw Sisters enjoyed this recipe on cold autumn nights during lockdown, when their whole family loved the delectable combination of baked pears and dulce de leche. It’s so delicious that you may want to make double (or triple) the amount of the dulce de leche which goes well with almost any dessert.
A classic childhood favourite from Two Raw Sisters, these Eskimo Pies are so simple and fun to make. You don’t have to use vanilla ice cream, just go with your favourite flavours. Margo and Rose love using mint chocolate chip ice cream for an after-dinner mint vibe.

Soft, bright orange pumpkin, smooth and spicy sriracha yoghurt, chunky zesty herb dressing and crunchy pumpkin seeds.
You won’t find this comforting dahl recipe from Two Raw Sisters in either of their cookbooks, it’s an Abode magazine exclusive. Margo and Rosa’s favourite winter warmer is filled with delicious spices, red lentils, coconut cream, garlic and ginger, and it’s a great one for the freezer.
This nourishing carrot soup is quick and easy to make for a tasty meal on the go. You can spice it up or keep it simple. Just add your favourite bread and enjoy this warming classic.

A rum baba is a small yeast cake saturated in syrup made with hard liquor, usually rum, and sometimes filled with whipped cream. I have literally tipped it on its side and added mascarpone and raspberries for richness and freshness to cut through the sweet, buttery rum breads.
