It’s part of my job to produce many #IndulgingInnocently recipes, something which I absolutely adore doing. This recipe is me pushing the boat out a bit, following a conversation with James about creating something like a healthy version of a Red Vvelt Cake. …So here’s my take on it! Although this recipe is dairy-free, gluten-free […]

VEGAN Strawberry, Orange & Chocolate Muffins
Another strawberry recipe, because it’s (supposedly) summer and Wimbledon is in full swing! I’m extra excited about this recipe, not only because these muffins are so bloody delicious and include my favourite raw, vegan-friendly chocolate from the Conscious Chocolate guys… But also because the lovely Chyaz made a video of this recipe over on her […]
Balsamic Strawberry & Almond Cake with Basil Cream
With Wimbledon starting, we’ve gone crazy for everything associated with tennis and the British summer…STRAWBERRIES! (And yes, umbrellas are sadly likely to be an essential too, along with a glass of Pimms and your sunglasses when the sun ACTUALLY decides to make an appearance!). So on that note, I wanted to shake things up a […]
Eat Lean Cheese Verdict + Healthy Gluten-free Pizza recipe!
Spotting Eat Lean Cheese on Instagram, I had to look again. High in protein (we all know this about cheese, but this contains 40% more than regular full-fat Cheddar), no carbs or sugar, lactose and gluten-free, and only 3% fat. This Protein Cheese is ‘made using natural ingredients by real cheesemakers on a real dairy […]
Lemon & Poppy Seed Protein Loaf
So I fancied having a go at making a low carb, high protein, no refined sugar Lemon & Poppy Seed Loaf after seeing this combo pop up more and more on Instagram and various food blogs. This one contains apple puree to add moisture without bumping the fat content up, while the inclusion of turmeric […]
VEGAN Raw Cherry, Almond & Acai Cheesecake
Summer goes hand-in-hand with berries and chilled/frozen desserts. Which is why I thought it was time to post a recipe especially for the warmer weather we’re currently having in the UK (temperatures about 20 degrees – shocking, right?!). So, here’s a very simple but stunning dessert that you can make in advance and serve up […]
VEGAN Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwiches
I’m really getting into vegan-friendly baking recently, as I’m discovering new techniques and combinations of ingredients that work to create a tasty, delicious and healthy result. I’ll say here that although I’m not vegan myself, I follow very much a plant-based diet with the occasional inclusion of meat, fish and dairy; for me, it’s all […]
Frill Double Chocolate Not-So-Naughty Cheesecake
It was wonderful to meet the lovely Frill crew at Be:Fit, generously giving out tasters of their healthy, frozen fruit and veggie frozen smoothie pots. Offering the texture and appeal of ice cream but without the dairy (great for vegans or dairy intolerances), “It has tastes as rich as the best premium ice cream and […]
Fitting Exercise Into Your Life + Banana Blueberry Loaf Recipe
You might train every day religiously, or step foot in the gym once a month. Either way, you don’t have to spend hours on the treadmill; being more active on a daily basis can benefit anyone and everyone, really making a difference to your overall health and wellbeing. Working together with global animal and welfare […]
Marbled Chocolate, Banana & Peanut Butter Protein Squares
To coincide with the launch of PhD Nutrition’s exciting new Superfood protein range, a blend of plant proteins, fruits, berries, wholefoods and greens offering 14g of protein per serving, I have created a recipe for a very special occasion. I was asked by the brand to bake one of my healthy, high protein recipes for […]
Strawberry, Banana & Almond Protein Loaf
It’s been an eventful weekend; a (rather drunken) girl’s night out with my fellow health food bloggers Sophie, Vicki, Katie and Sophia; I had the pleasure of seeing Muse at Manchester Arena with my husband, and in between I’ve done plenty of walking and enjoying the gorgeous Spring sunshine. It’s this vibe of warmer weather […]
Leftover Easter chocolate? Make these Vanilla & Almond Cookies!
I know, I know – there may not even be such thing as ‘leftover chocolate’ from Easter…But if, like me, you were given the darker, richer variety, it seems to last that little bit longer. So with some Lindt Excellence 70% dark chocolate egg to spare, rather than just shove it in my mouth I […]
Bearfaced Groceries + Raspberry, Lime & Courgette Muffins recipe
I was thrilled to hear from Bearfaced Groceries recently, a company launched “with a simple idea that has been lost in the grocery industry today; to provide real food made by real people”. I’ll hold my hands up and say I get most of my fruit, veg, meat and dairy produce from the local supermarket, […]
Healthy Carrot Cake
Easter isn’t all about chocolate…It wouldn’t be the same without Carrot Cake, would it?! I think this is honestly my favourite recipe to date, a totally clean, moist and bloody delicious slice which is sure to go down a treat over the Bank Holiday weekend. You can leave out the icing if you want – […]
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 […]
