So as Italy began its lockdown for the Coronavirus, and we were all forced to stay home, I thought this was the perfect time to dedicate some of the additional hours I find myself with to my blog and creating recipes everyday for my followers. to give people some inspiration while they are at home, [...]
Buckwheat - those little round seeds that make the texture of the granola so crispy and wonderful. Buckwheat despite the name is actually gluten and wheat free. I have made granola many times but this is by far my favourite. Plus it takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish, and will save you [...]
Here are couple of recipes from our healthy eating and fitness week Uma Retreats in Lake Como! I prepared some healthy snacks to accompany our exercise from post cardio energy balls, to protein bars for our mountain hike.

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 [...]

This recipe is designed for all you busy bees, I tend to make snacks like these [...]
This pretty little pot will take you a few minutes to prepare before bed then you can just grab it and go in the morning. To begin with I was unsure about the texture of chia seeds once soaked but this combination with coconut is delicious. The goji berries expand in the liquid and become [...]
I have already posted a couple of energy ball recipes, but I can't stop making them. I usually make a big batch on a Sunday and they will last me about a week.
