She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’
Not anymore! Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.

The idea came from Annabel Langbein's Caramelised Onion & Goat's Cheese Tart recipe. I used our quick mix pizza base which is gluten, grain, nut, egg and soy free. You only need to add water and mix. I topped it with caramelised onions, goat feta, walnuts and thyme. So simple, quick, and easy to make, and not at all messy. Tastes great and looks amazing. Then I tried using the base for a sweet option and made an Apple Frangipane Tart. This turned out very well too. The pizza mix is versatile and makes it easy to produce nice food quickly and easily for people who are gluten or grain free, or on restricted diets.
