Chef Johan van Schalkwyk’s chicken mole nachos
Compared to most chefs, Johan may have had a bit of a late start, only entering the industry when he was 28. He started out as a chef at a chateau in France, where he fondly remembers the time spent wandering through the kitchen garden, a basket of vegetables and herbs on his forearm, carefully picking fresh produce for the day. These days, Johan heads up the kitchen at Vrede en Lust’s Lust Bistro & Bakery, cooking and baking (make sure that you taste the sourdough!) fresh and fuss-free fare at one of the most renowned eateries in the foodie centre of Franschhoek. We visited his kitchen and he cooked us a delicious chocolatey treat with a bite, chicken mole nachos!

Meat-free everyday – on a budget!
Choosing to become vegetarian takes a lot of discipline and can be challenging when you’re surrounded by meat-eaters. But let’s go back for a second. We all know that meat is a food product that eats through our wallets, and it’s especially difficult when you’re on a rather tight budget. So, why not try out a vegetarian diet? There are plenty delicious veggie products that’ll save you money, and they’re all available at your nearest food store. Nowadays, more and more people are choosing the vegetarian (and vegan) route, so grocery stores are supplying more alternative food options at lower prices!
