Beet-a-ganoush Dip Recipe

Beet-a-ganoush Dip Recipe If you've been reading my blog for a while you'll know of my never ending love for Hummus. What you may not know is I'm also a huge baba ganoush fan. What can I say, I was brought up in the Middle East and both dips were a big part of my diet and so have a very special place in my heart! Luckily as well as being delicious they also happen to be super healthy, high in fibre, nutrients and good fats! I don't eat baba ganoush as much as I would like to since it's slightly more time consuming when compared to hummus (which I literally eat on the daily!), and when I do make it, it's [...]

I use applesauce in a lot of my baking and you would be surprised at how easy it is to make at home! Essentially all you need are some apples, water, a peeler and a pan!

Raspberry Chia Jam

Before embarking on my healthy eating journey, I never thought to make my own homemade jam. It just seemed like too much of a faff and when you have endless options at the supermarket, why bother? But how amazing would it be to be able to make your own healthy homemade jam that's sugar free, mostly fruit and takes only 5 minutes to make? Seems to good to be true, right?
