I made this smoothie today, I've been off work and sat at home ill, feeling fluey and full of cold. I'm not a fan of taking medicines, and I had kinda lost my appetite (great news for the waistline!! haha) so for lunch I decided to make a smoothie. One that would not only fill [...]
Another accidental recipe. A quiet weekend at home, with not much in the fridge so I made this loaf with what I had...carrots and bananas. A kind of mash up of carrot cake and banana bread, and it actually turned out to be delicious. The carrots combined with the banana mean that it is not [...]

Some mornings you just want your breakfast to appear in front of you with no effort...and this recipe does just that.

So I created this porridge with a warming pear compote to compliment the cinnamon [...]
Sometimes you want more than just a smoothie for breakfast, and this is a much more filling version. The addition of chia seeds not only add texture but they are full of protein, making this a great pre or post gym breckie. Of course if you don’t have maca or acai powder you can make [...]
My favourite treat in healthy form! No refined sugar or butter just natural sweetness. These work well as an afternoon pick me up, or even better as a desert with a dollop of coconut yoghurt and some fresh berries or pomegranate seeds. No baking just set in the freezer and cut into bite sized [...]
I always wake up hungry and jump out of bed to stuff my hand in the granola jar. So the thought of a smoothie for breakfast seems like I'm missing out, however I tried this recipe and was a convert. It took me seconds to prepare, no cooking oats or chopping fruit. The banana makes [...]
Energy balls with a hidden surprise. As I've mentioned before I'm a little obsessed with nut butters, particularly spooning it straight from the jar into my mouth.
