I’ve only really started experimenting more with healthy cookie recipes recently and with these ones, I think I’ve nailed the soft and chewy combo with a slight crunch. Packed with energy-boosting ingredients that are all good for you, they are so easy to whip up and would make a great snack or breakfast on the […]

Banana & Cinnamon Granola Muffins
Spoon Cereals are a team of breakfast enthusiasts who produce delicious and healthy granola and muesli in the UK. Their venture began with a passion for making breakfast better – and as a result, became obsessed with making cereal that’s tastier, healthier, simpler and more exciting! As a self-confessed granola addict (it’s too east to open a […]
Raspberry Loaf
Who doesn’t love a spot of baking? It’s fun, therapeutic and the best bit – eating the baked goods when they are ready! Whether you’re fully vegan or doing Veganuary for a challenge, baking may seem a bit daunting or uncertain if you’re not sure about what ingredients or alternatives to use compared to traditional […]
Introducing Birds Eye Veggie Bowls
For many people, January is about getting back on the health wagon after the indulgences of Christmas, whether that be hitting the gym hard, making an effort to eat healthily or cutting out booze for a while (Dry January, anyone?). It can be a challenge to stay motivated, especially when it’s so cold and grim […]
No Bake Spiced Apple Crumble & Peanut Butter Tart
Can you believe we’re nearly into the last month of 2018?! Guys, where has this year gone?! Crazy. But we’re now in full swing of autumn and verging on the brink of winter… So, spiced everything, everywhere, right? In keeping with this theme – it would be rude not to, let’s be honest – this […]
Spooky Halloween Brownies
With Halloween coming up it would only be right for me to post a themed recipe wouldn’t it?! We had a mini party with some friends the weekend before the 31st and we were hosting it, so creating some spooky treats was a given. Using pumpkin within a super easy vegan and gluten-free brownie mixture, […]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts
Big thanks to Meridian Foods for recently sending me their new Rich Roast peanut butter jars in smooth and crunchy: made using only blanched hi-oleic peanuts sourced from Argentina which have been roasted for longer to deliver a richer and more intense flavour than traditional peanut butters. And let me tell you, the peanut buttery-ness […]
Wellness Boosting Smoothie Bowl
Can you believe that summer is nearly over? Gone is the heatwave we enjoyed for three months and instead we’re thinking about going back to school/work, digging the boats and coats out and welcoming autumn with pumpkin lattes at the ready. I don’t know about you but the change in weather and seasons really affects […]
Pres: Bringing Goodness To Prestwich
I still can’t remember how I first came across Pres, but when we discovered our dream house in Prestwich back in November it popped up on my radar and I was so excited that our new living location had a cafe/bar offering healthy, earth-friendly smoothies and dishes. Having lived in Manchester city centre for 4 […]
Dark Chocolate & Rose Festival Slice
With summer being festival season, it would only be right to create a new recipe for British chocolate brand Montezuma’s using one of their awesome festival themed bars for August. Not only that, but these guys are celebrating their 18th birthday milestone which is an incredible achievement for a brand! So with a colourful theme […]
Peach, Blueberry & Almond Cake
Nature’s Finest Foods kindly sent me a selection of their fruit pots which are ideal if you’re on the go, want to add cooked fruit to recipes, or give to little ones to nibble on – Thomas loves the peach slices especially as they are soft on his teeth. I’ve been a fan of these […]

Always up for a blogger recipe challenge, I was recently approached by Bio-tiful Kefir-Quark to get involved in their latest campaign. The world’s first combination of bio-live Kefir and high-protein Quark, Bio-tiful Kefir-Quark combines two of the best and most nutritious dairy products, resulting in an abundant list of health benefits and a thick, creamy […]
Oppo Chia Pudding Smoothie Bowls 2 Ways
So the heatwave in the UK is STILL going strong (isn’t this what this season should be like anyway?) which means for many of us, we’re craving chilled or frozen foods to help keep us cool. Plus the thought of cooking or baking just goes straight out the window when it’s already like 30 degrees […]
Chocolate Strawberry Tartlets
Another month, another recipe for the fabulous British chocolate company, Montezuma’s! This time using their super moreish, vegan-friendly 58% Cocoa Dark Chocolate Giant Buttons, I thought I’d create something summery using one of my favourite fruits (and a perfect match with chocolate): STRAWBERRIES! These no-bake tartlets are really straight-forward to prepare and can be made […]
