I actually cannot believe how lucky we have been with the weather this summer in the UK; weeks of sunshine, blue skies and scorching temperatures. In fact, I’ve been pretty much living outside either in the garden or being outdoors and making the most of it! Alongside taking advantage of lots of vitamin D, I’ve […]

Blueberry, Turmeric & Coconut Granola
You may have heard of The Groovy Food Company, offering coconut based products including their 100% unrefined Virgin Coconut Oil. Now they have just launched a new exciting product to the range: Virgin Coconut Oil infused with Turmeric! This colourful spice has definitely seen a rise in popularity amongst the health food world thanks to […]
Cacao & Coconut Flapjack Bites
You may have seen in my latest post that I’ve collaborated with Nature’s Heart Superfoods on making some delicious, easy and healthy recipes using their amazing superfoods. Along with a substantial overnight oats recipe and a refreshing dessert, these energy-boosting treats are the perfect mid morning or mid afternoon snack when hunger hits! Topped with Nature’s Heart […]
Berry & Carob Ice Cream Cake
Some of you may may know that I work closely with Supertreats, who offer delicious caffeine-free, refined sugar free carob bars as a healthier alternative to chocolate. Silky Milky, Cheery Chia (just like chocolate orange with chia seeds) and Merry Berry (loaded with blueberries) complete the range, all as tasty as each other and packed […]
Cardamom Coconut Rice Pudding & Stewed Plums
Ahh the great big sugar debate. It’s been a part of our diet for hundreds of years and remains a staple of our everyday lives but has come under so much scrutiny that it’s become the F word of the food industry. From being linked to obesity and diabetes and blamed for a dental decay […]
Baby-Friendly Banana Loaf
With a very active 9 month old baby who loves his food, things to snack on are becoming more of a feature in Tom’s diet. You might have seen a recent post with a healthy oatcake recipe which he’s been loving, but I wanted to step up and make a baby-friendly banana loaf (since he […]
Sambazon Acai Immunity Boosting Bowl
As a health foodie, smoothie bowls are one of my favourite things to make – to look pretty for Instagram and a delicious way to enjoy the nutritional benefits of whizzing up whatever fruits, veggies and superfood powders I have in, topped with a variety of nuts, seeds, dried fruits or whatever else takes my […]
Superberries Mini Cheesecakes
With Spring officially here, it’s not long until flowers start to bloom and we have more colour in our life – that’s one of the reasons I love Spring so much after the dull, dreary winter. Bold, vibrant colours instantly make me feel happier which is why I’m loving the gorgeous new superfood product from […]
Tom’s Oatcakes
Time has flown by and my little boy is now 9 MONTHS OLD. He’s such a happy chappy who never sits still (no wonder he builds up such an appetite!) and has four teeth coming through nicely. Tom is loving his food and enjoying a combination of spoon-feeding and feeding himself finger foods. He loves […]
Chocolate & Salted Caramel Peanut Butter Bites
This has to be one of my most requested recipes – I wasn’t planning on it going on the blog but after I shared a (not very good) photo on my Instagram asking if anyone fancied it, the response was crazy! It was recently my husband James’ birthday and as part of the celebrations, we […]
Vegan Carrot Cake Muffins
Working with the wonderful wholefoods company Indigo Herbs, I’ve created a special Easter-themed recipe that also happens to be vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and contains no refined sugar – a nice break from all that chocolate and just as delicious 😉 These muffins are a twist on the classic carrot cake and are packed full of […]
Pear & Walnut Brownies
I eat nuts in some form every day. Peanut butter spooned onto something (or straight from the jar!), walnuts sprinkled over porridge, pecans baked into a recipe, or snacking on Brazil nuts – they are just very basic examples. Years ago I used to be afraid of the fat content but after reading up on […]
Cherry, Pear & Almond Cake
Mother’s Day is coming up and now the Spring is finally here (although the recent weather would say otherwise!), I wanted to celebrate by sharing one of my favourite cake recipes to date. Both my Mum and I love the combination of juicy cherries, sweet pears and nutty almonds so it was only right to […]
Clean Supper Club Collab: Smoothie Bowls 3 Ways
You may have seen that recently I collaborated with the super talented, lovely Clean Supper Club ladies to come up with some nutritious, delicious and easy breakfast recipes. Last time we went for warming, satisfying bowls of porridge; now we’re focusing on colourful, vibrant smoothie bowls with allll the toppings! Notes Each recipe serves 1. […]
Apple, Raisin & Cinnamon Baked Oats
If I had to pick a favourite fruit, apples would definitely be up there. They have to be crisp, juicy, not too sweet or too tart, and mostly red with a green twinge. I eat at least one a day; as it is, chopped up and added to a big bowl of yogurt and berries, […]
