You’ve got to love that first meal of the day, whatever time that might be for you (for me it’s about 10am after a workout and general busy parent life!) – BREAKFAST. Whether you’re a cereal fan, prefer a cooked meal or grab a smoothie on the go, there are so many options you can […]

Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed Brownies
Another day during National Chocolate Week, another recipe – but this time, here’s something a little bit different, a little more indulgent… I’ll make it clear that this recipe is only suitable for the die-hard peanut butter fans out there. Why? Because these brownies are packed AND topped with homemade Peanut Butter Cups. THAT’S RIGHT. […]

Vegan Nutty Salted Caramel Rolla Granola Cheesecake
You may have seen my healthy Chocolate, Chilli & Raspberry Brownie recipe – now onto my second recipe working with the wonderful Rolla Granola team…I think this one deserves a *drum roll* just because it was absolutely spectacular (if I do say so myself)… Say hello to this super impressive (but pretty simple to make) […]
Clean Chocolate & Almond Cheesecake
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 […]
Vida Yoga @ Lululemon + Raw Cranberry, Ginger & Peanut Bites
