An Apology

I apologise for the lack of recipe posts lately - life has a way of getting busy sometimes and projects and events have been keeping me very occupied lately.  During this break from posting recipes, I have been trying to go back and cook the recipes already posted again so I can take pictures of them.  You might notice the posts are slowly one-by-one having pictures added to them.
In the meantime, feel free to email me with your favourite recipe to studyinghisword@gmail.com .  I would love to try some new recipes myself and add yours to the blog.  If you do send a recipe, please let me know if you would like me to post your name with your recipe - I can post them anonymously if you would prefer.
I'm hoping to get back to posting a recipe each day soon!
Don't forget to let me know what you think of the recipes when you try them!

Roast Pumpkin & Capsicum Pasta Salad with Bacon

* This is a recipe I made up to take with me to a family dinner.  It was a big hit!  It is very creamy - if you like your salads to have more of a tangy flavour, I would suggest using a tangy mayonnaise instead of the one in the recipe, and I would also suggest reducing the sour cream (making up the difference with mayonnaise) or adding more vinegar.  This recipe is very versatile and can be easily changed in multiple ways to suit your tastes * 350g (12oz) uncooked pasta (I chose small shells, but you could use any kind you prefer) 1 large capsicum (bell pepper), cut in strips 600g (21oz) diced butternut pumpkin (you could try another pumpkin if you don't have butternut, but I can't guarantee it will taste as nice!) olive oil 250g (9oz) diced bacon 1 large brown onion, chopped finely Dressing: 2/3 cup creamy whole egg mayonnaise 1/3 cup sour cream 1 tablespoon vinegar 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder Preheat oven to 200ºC (390ºF).  G...
