Vegan Cookie Mix Review
As much as baking your own healthy snacks can be enjoyable and rewarding, sometimes we just don’t have the time to find a decent recipe, buy the ingredients or even bake them.

Porridge Season with Quaker Oats
I don’t know about you but I crave a big warming bowl of porridge when the weather is cold and the mornings are dark. Oats, almond milk, cinnamon, a splash of vanilla extract and topped with berries and nut butter and/or seeds is one of my favourite combinations, but part of the fun is going […]

Although we’re craving warmer things now autumn is here, I couldn’t resist whizzing up these no-bake, raw treats and keeping them in the freezer when chocolate cravings strike.

So, here’s a very simple but stunning dessert that you can make in advance and serve up […]

It’s this vibe of warmer weather […]

I’m a bit excited about this recipe…It really is one of my all-time favourites. Honestly, that first mouthful is just foodgasmic. I made this for my girlies and of course, we all went back for seconds and polished it off – I’ll definitely be making it again! Another of those ‘tastes far too naughty to […]
