After nearly two months of eating a plant-based diet I thought I would share my favourite vegan breakfast recipes so far. I’ve really enjoyed trying different recipes but it hasn’t always gone well. I tried quite a few vegan pancake recipes that really didn’t work! I had a particular disaster making vegan ‘crepes’ that I just…

Chocolate and Raspberry Brownies (refined sugar-free)
I’m a chocoholic and this is torture! I’m writing about these brownies without having one to eat at this moment in time. I would be the happiest person on earth if I could make them again and again to have a constant supply. These chocolate and raspberry brownies taste amazing! They are moist, squidgy, indulgent…
Pip & Nut *Reviews-Cookbook-Recipes*
Are you a nut butter lover? Then you need to read this! Plus, I’ve also got some amazing recipes to share from the new Pip & Nut Cookbook. I came across Pip& Nut when I was looking for snacks for my ‘Healthy Snack Boxes’. I was interested in their squeeze packs and thought these would…
Crab and Prawn Linguine
Just over a month to go and we will be changing seasons! This week we had some nice sunny days that made me long for Spring. I’m looking forward to going outside without hunting down everyone’s hat, scarves and gloves. The gloves are the worst, we have lost so many the kids have had to wear odd gloves on…
Healthy 3 Ingredient Cookie
These are the easiest cookies ever as you only need three ingredients; Oats, Banana and chocolate chips. You could even make them for babies from 6 months old, just omit the chocolate chips. I made these chocolate chip cookies again the other day (with the help of my two year old) , as I quickly needed to prepare a after…

Nutty Cacao Balls
I still get surprised at how regularly my kids need a little snack. As they are so active, I find their energy levels can drop really quickly. One minute they seem fine and suddenly I’ll have a screaming toddler, who will not listen and give me no clue as to what is wrong. With time, I’ve…
Edible gifts to make with children
As Christmas is fast approaching I thought I would do a roundup of my favourite recipes out there for foodie gifts you could make with the kids. My little girl has been talking about Christmas for weeks now as they have been rehearsing for their nativity play at school but now it’s December it has definitely…
12 grains to try with the kids
Lately, I’ve been doing a few nutrition courses to get a bit more knowledge on the subject and the main thing that stuck with me is how variety plays such an important part of a healthy diet. It makes sense if you think about it, different foods provide different nutrients so eating various foods every…
Pear Turnovers
September is a special month for us now as it’s my little boy’s birthday (he just turned two) but this year has also brought a lot of change: the start of school for my (big) girl and my youngest has also just started going to playgroup which means a bit more time for myself. Autumn also brings a lot…
Blackcurrant & Almond cake
I think this cake looks quite impressive but it’s in fact really easy and quick to prepare. It’s one of those recipes that I keep making again and again so I just had to share it! I make it with blackcurrant as I get loads at this time of year from my allotment but you could…
