Mango Yoghurt Protein Frozen Bites

Mango Yoghurt Protein Frozen Bites

These mango yoghurt protein frozen bites are a healthy and nutritious way to keep cool on a scorching hot summer day. They're made with only 3 main ingredients and are so easy to put together. I have to admit that when the weather is hot, there are very few things I actually crave eating. I hate the idea of cooking hot meals when the house already feels like an oven and I'm sweating even in my short shorts, vest and multiple fans on around the house. All I want is something cool, chilled and refreshing. I could probably eat ice cream and iced lollies all day every day during hot summer days. Although I almost never buy them from shops [...]

Spicy Roasted Butter Beans (Healthy)

Spicy Roasted Butter Beans (Healthy)

These spicy roasted butter beans are the perfect healthy snack when you're craving something crunchy and salty. You only need a handful of ingredients to make them and you can easily adjust the flavour to your liking. I'm obsessed with anything butter beans at the moment. A few weeks ago I shared this Middle Eastern butter bean recipe inspired by my Iraqi upbringing as well as this creamy butter bean & tofu stew. Both of which are now staples in my household as they're both nourishing, easy and so quick to put together. There's something so comforting and satisfying about butter beans. Their creamy texture and mild flavour works so well in so many recipes. I've recently discovered they work [...]

Custard Jam Coconut Tart (Vegan)

Custard Jam Coconut Tart (Vegan)

This custard jam coconut tart is made up of a crumbly oaty base, a creamy custard filling, a fruity jam topping all topped off with a sprinkle of desiccated coconut and fresh raspberries. The perfect chilled dessert to enjoy this summer. This recipe is inspired by the Manchester Tart - traditionally made up of a shortcrust pastry base, custard filling, jam and desiccated coconut. I didn't want to call it a Manchester tart as I don't think many have heard of it. I lived in Manchester for 15 years and hadn't heard of it until recently! I have to give you a disclaimer and admit that I've never actually tried a Manchester tart before. As I mentioned before, I only [...]

Speedy Healthy Black Eyed Beans Curry

Speedy Healthy Black Eyed Beans Curry

A simple speedy healthy black eyed beans curry recipe that comes together in just 20 minutes! Made with wholesome ingredients and tastes absolutely delicious. I can never get bored of bean based dishes. They're such a wholesome and versatile ingredient that also happen to be affordable too! For some reason unbeknown to me, black eyed beans don't seem to enjoy the same popularity as their bean and legume counterparts like chickpeas, white beans and lentils. If you've tried black eyed beans before, you'll know they have a unique taste. As I do with most of my recipes, I like to give you options to change around the recipe depending on what you like or what you have available in your [...]

3-Ingredient Healthier Banana Chocolate Fudge

3-Ingredient Healthier Banana Chocolate Fudge

This 3-ingredient healthier banana chocolate fudge recipe is the perfect example of an easy dessert that takes no time to prepare and is actually good for you! As the title of this post suggests, you only need 3 ingredients - banana, dark chocolate and nut-butter (or seed butter for a nut-free version), that's it! This is my new favourite obsession. I don't know why I didn't think of combining melted chocolate and banana before. I had tried making fudge using things like mashed sweet potato and pumpkin puree, which essentially has a very similar texture to mashed banana. So there was no reason for it not to work just as well. If you use ripe bananas, you also get a [...]

Chocolate Pudding Cake (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chocolate Pudding Cake (Vegan & Gluten-free)

If you love chocolate treats, you need to try this chocolate pudding cake. It's rich, easy to make and requires no baking. The perfect chocolate dessert for summer! The best way for me to describe this chocolate pudding cake is that it's a mixture between a mousse and jelly - almost like a thick, gelatinous custard that you can set in a cake tin. This is the perfect dessert to make on warmer days when you fancy something chocolatey, but also want something cold form the fridge to help cool yourself down. With it being no-bake, it also means you don't need to turn the oven on, which is the last thing I want to do on a warm day. [...]

Middle Eastern Butter Bean Stew

Middle Eastern Butter Bean Stew

This Middle Eastern butter bean stew is inspired by my love of Fasoulia - a bean dish I grew up eating and loving! Growing up, my mum's Fasoulia was one of my favourite dishes. I used to get so excited when it was Fasoulia day! A rich tomatoey stew with white beans and chunks of meat served with rice and a fresh salad. Although this dish is traditionally made with white/cannellini beans, I decided to make a slight variation and used butter beans instead. The creaminess of the butter beans marries so well with the zingy, rich tomato sauce. They both taste equally as delicious though, so whichever you have available will do. A super speedy meal that's ready in [...]

5-Ingredient No-Bake Chocolate Covered Brownies

5-Ingredient No-Bake Chocolate Covered Brownies

Delicious and so decadent - these 5-ingredient no-bake chocolate covered brownies are the perfect no fuss, easy and delicious treat! Seems like I'm currently on a chocolate marathon. I've been posting so many recipes recently that feature chocolate quite heavily. Not that I've had any complaints from you here or on my social media channels. I think it's the time of year - it's so cold and gloomy most days that I (and I'm sure many of you are with me on this one) need some comfort foods to keep me going! Luckily these no-bake brownies are healthier than your average brownie - packed with fibre and healthy fats from the dates and tahini. What makes them even better is [...]
