Healthy Salad Dressing
This is my go-to, super simple and quick salad dressing recipe. I've called it a 'salad dressing' but truthfully, I don't only use it for salads - I love adding it to some steamed vegetables, makes them taste so delicious!

Crispy and golden on the outside, soft in the middle and an absolute delight to look at! You won't want to go back to plain potatoes ever again!
Quick Prawn Coconut Curry This dish has become a dinner staple in my household. Whenever I'm stuck for meal ideas or want something quick and easy, I always turn to this quick prawn coconut curry. This is my version of a 'curry in a hurry' - It will only take 15-20 minutes for a lovely, warming curry that's full of flavours. This recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free and can easily be made vegetarian and vegan by replacing the prawns with more vegetables (potatoes, cauliflower, butternut squash...the options are endless!) I also like making a chicken version and a bean version, all equally as good! This quick prawn coconut curry is a great option for those evenings when you have very little [...]
Two raw, soft and sweet heart shaped cookies with a layer of tangy raspberry chia jam sandwiched in between them - The perfect healthy sweet treat to make for that special someone whether it's for valentine's day, an anniversary, or just as cute gesture of love and appreciation.
Guacamole goes with everything: salads, vegetables, meat, in sandwiches...I make so many different variations all the time depending on what ingredients I have, but mostly how lazy I'm feeling! Usually, I'll scoop a ripe avocado onto a plate, mash it with a fork, add lots of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of pepper and call it 'Guacamole'. It tastes so good and fresh simply like that, but if you're having Mexican food (say Fajitas!) then you have to do it properly.
I've been on a massive peanut butter kick the last few days when usually I'm more of a Tahini girl. I go through these phases where I crave a specific food and want to eat it everyday and right now, peanut butter is that food! I've been eating it straight out of the jar with a spoon.
Almond Cranberry and Pistachio Cookies I hope you've all had a relaxing holiday. Did you indulge in some yummy food and treats? I was planning on doing just that but my tummy has been awfully sensitive the last few weeks so I'm having to take it easy, a very difficult thing to at best times when you're a food blogger let alone around Christmas time! Baking is my therapy and helps me de-stress so even when I'm not feeling well, I bake! I wasn't sure what to bake but I knew I wanted to use ground almonds since I had a few bags on hand in my pantry. So I decided to make some flour-less, grain-free and gluten-free cookies. The [...]
I feel that Brussels sprouts are neglected all year round apart from Christmas. I can only find them locally around this time and it makes me sad, because I LOVE BRUSSELS SPROUTS! I realise not everyone shares my passion for the humble sprout and I guess I can understand why. I always used to boil or steam my Brussels sprouts which I must admit did get boring after a while. That's before I discovered roasting them instead!
I must admit I’m not the biggest fan of fruit pies, or cooked fruit desserts. I prefer eating my fruit raw and cold; however, rhubarb is one of those fruit (a vegetable, actually!) that you can’t eat any other way apart from cooked…so I thought why not give it a try. It’s so deliciously tart and not too sweet. In fact, I only used 2 tbsp sweetener in the filling and it was just right! Traditional recipes use anywhere between ½ and 1 cup of sugar for the filling alone!
There are so many healthy pancake recipes out there and I've made so many different varieties, but I find that sometimes the most basic and simple recipe works best. I like making a basic pancakes batter by mixing just a few ingredients together.
