Eco-friendly recipes


The key to eating healthy and environmentally friendly foods is having a range of great recipes that suit your needs and tastebuds. With the help of our QUT students, we developed the Beans around the world cookbook during the 2008 Olympic Games to celebrate other cultures and to encourage people to try a range of legume dishes from different cuisines.

We are starting on a bank of recipes that focus on locally produced and seasonal foods for South East Queensland residents. To check out the recipes we have so far, click on your season of choice.
