This recipe is almost as quick as going to the shop and buying a packet of crisps! But they are not fried, full of fat or salt! Three ingredients only! They taste great on their own or dunked into some hummus (my beetroot and feta dip in the picture). Great as a sharing starter or nibbles to [...]
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 [...]
In the winter soup is one of my favourite things to make. Its super easy, and will keep in your fridge for upto a week! I have tried so many variations but the cauliflower in this recipe makes such a creamy soup you'll be amazed it has no milk or cream in it! For this [...]
A delicious and colourful plate of food...in I promise 5 minutes! This was the result of some leftovers. Using my beetroot dip recipe which with the courgette works as a perfect sauce.

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 [...]
Yes you did read the title correctly...I know it sounds disgusting, thats what I thought too! But wait until you've tried it to judge. The combination with the fresh lemon juice makes it a really refreshing and filling juice. I made this during my homemade juice cleanse and had it for my dinner. Ok so [...]
