Hello! Welcome to dontmissmyplate.

Thank you for visiting my website! I'm Maxine—a food blogger, home cook, travel enthusiast, and all-around lover of food and culture. In other words, I’m passionate about fusion cuisine—a style of cooking that blends ingredients and techniques from different countries, regions, and cultures.

My approach is shaped by both Southern African and American influences, reflecting my life experiences and making my recipes diverse and dynamic. I also love traveling and sharing my food adventures with you, from what I ate to where to eat, while discovering new flavors and techniques along the way.

I hope you find this website helpful and inspiring. Whether you're looking for something familiar or eager to try something new, there's something here for everyone. Enjoy exploring, and happy cooking!

Green Smoothie and Avocado Toast

Green Smoothie and Avocado Toast

💚🐸This is how to start the day on #toasttuesday! But there is nothing stopping you from having this for dinner if you had your other proteins during the course of the day!

Recipe: I made a kale 1/4 cup spinach (frozen) 2 cups smoothie with 1 banana and flaxseed added. The 1/2 of an avocado toast was simply mashed with chili flakes pepper and course salt. Both greens had a dash of lemon added in.
