The other week I won a competition by the lovely Anna at Heart and Bowl for a pack of Booja Booja chocolate truffles. Dairy free, gluten free, and soya free, they promise to be a guilt free treat option. I try not to eat too much dairy so I was so excited to try these. I LOVED… Continue reading Booja Booja chocolates
Comfort food. This is one of my favourites. Last week I had the worst cold in ages, I could barely walk around for 20 minutes, and I certainly didn’t want to cook anything. Or eat anything. But also, I wanted to eat every single thing on earth all at once. Yeah it was one of… Continue reading Salmon & spinach gnocchi
A little summer treat, the buckwheat and rice flour make these little cupcakes great for gluten free folk, and are a healthier option than refined white flour, while still giving a soft cakey texture. A 50:50 mix of the flours gives me the same consistency as ‘normal’ flour, and tastes so much better than replacing… Continue reading Gluten free banana cupcakes
I’ve been trying to make home made chocolate for a while, but it always felt like it would be complicated. Stop what you’re doing right now and listen…. it isn’t. It couldn’t be easier to make! Vegan friendly and dairy free, and it tastes (I think) better than chocolate – no guilts. Cacao has loads of… Continue reading Raw cacao ‘no chocolate’ chocolate
I love chilli. Hearty and happy, it’s one of those meals that everyone (and I mean everyone, veggies look over here at my vegetable chilli) enjoys eating. We have chilli most weeks in our house – it’s a great weekday meal as usually it’ll do a few meals – and usually tastes better the second… Continue reading Turkey Mince. Lean, mean, clean.
It’s April at the end of the week and I cannot believe where the year is going. 2020 (a.k.a The far and distant future where we’ll all have hoverboards) seems not so far away, and that is terrifying. I’ve found since Christmas that I’ve just not quite been on the ‘no sugar’ lifestyle as I was… Continue reading Going Sugar Free
I make these and keep them in the fridge for the week – so easy to grab when you’re on the go. I tend to go to the gym before work which means a horrid start of 5.50am, and there is no way I want to eat at that time of the morning! These are… Continue reading Gym power: ‘Ferrero Rocher’ energy balls
Oh oh oh oh omega-3! This is PACKED with goodness, super quick to make AND if you’re prepared it lasts overnight in a lunchbox for a work-time lunch. Huzzah! Serves 2 2 fillets smoked mackerel, sliced 70g rocket 4 x beetroots, chopped into chunks 50g feta Handful pumpkin seeds Dressing: 3 tsp x olive oil… Continue reading Beetroot, feta & mackerel salad
Weekday, workday breakfasts. If I’m being good that morning, I’ve got up at 6am for the gym. If I’m not going to the gym, I’ve usually not got up with enough time to sit down for breakfast at home. Either way, I need something I can grab and go. My ‘breakfast d’jour’ at the moment… Continue reading Apple & Coconut bircher museli
If I could eat one thing every single day for the rest of my life, chilli would probably be it. It ticks every single box for me: spicy, warm, filling, and really darn easy to make. Recently we’ve been eating vegetable chilli quite often, it’s a really easy way to get extra vegetables into your… Continue reading Vegetable and bean spicy chilli
