Hi, I’m Onalenna Mothusi, the founder of The Farming Cook. I’m passionate about creating delicious, wholesome recipes that celebrate the best of organic, sustainable farming while keeping health at the forefront.
At The Farming Cook, I believe that good farming equals good flavor, and that healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated or boring. From Low GI meals and nourishing bowls to indulgent treats and wellness drinks, my goal is to help you eat consciously, enjoy every bite, and feel your best.
When I’m not in the kitchen or on the farm, I love exploring new ingredients, crafting recipes that nourish the body, and sharing tips for sustainable, mindful living.
Whether you’re here for free recipes, wholesome meal plans, or indulgent treats, I hope you find inspiration, joy, and a little extra flavor in your day.

Pancakes with Greens and Fruit Salad and Pork Sausages
I put this together on a Sunday morning craving a bit of this and that. The salad has rape and kale leaves, pineapple, mango and pomegranate. I let the flavours mingle together overnight. Then I have some fig and pawpaw, pork sausages and the fluffy pancakes.
