Salsa Vegan Grilled Cheese

*This post is sponsored by Holy Moly Dips* Grilled cheese with a twist - this salsa vegan grilled cheese is jazzed up with smokey red pepper & tomato salsa. Great as a yummy savoury breakfast or a speedy comforting lunch! Some days you just need something really simple, yet decadent to lift up your mood. A grilled cheese in my eyes is the definition of simple comforts. It's almost like a pizza, but 10 times easer and faster to make. A grilled cheese on it's own is pure happiness, but add salsa to it and you elevate it to something so much more delicious! I used Holy Moly's new smokey red pepper & tomato salsa and it worked a treat! [...]

Kale Sweet Potato Hash

*This post is sponsored by Discover Great Veg* A delicious and comforting meal that’s also good for you! A versatile dish that you can enjoy for breakfast or as a side with lunch/dinner. It’s such an easy and tasty way to get lots of veggie goodness into your meals! I always prefer using sweet potato to regular potatoes in general, but especially recipes like this. It just adds so much more flavour and it’s also better for you! Kale and sweet potato are the perfect match – when the kale cooks it absorbs all the lovely spices and balances out the sweetness of the potatoes perfectly.   I’m teaming up again with Discover Great Veg to provide you with inspiration on [...]

Blueberry Lemon Breakfast Bars

These breakfast bars are perfect to have in the fridge for super busy weeks. You know, for those days when you have no time in the morning for a sit down breakfast or even enough time to prepare anything to take with you. Packed with antioxidants from the blueberries as well as fibre and slow releasing energy from the oats.  Lemon and blueberries is just the most refreshing, zingy combination. I absolutely love fruity treats and these blueberry lemon breakfast bars just hit the spot. They're sweet enough to curb that sugar craving a lot of us have first thing in the morning, but not overly sweet. These bars would also make a really nice snack in between meals or [...]

Vegan Raspberry Overnight Oats

A quick, easy and delicious breakfast to start the day! ? I topped mine with some warm raspberries for extra nutrients, antioxidants and vitamins, but also with some ZENB Veggie Bites which are organic and a source of fibre! ZENB is an organic, plant-based brand that strives to help people eat delicious on-the-go snacks, whilst also being respectful of the resources of our natural environment. The name ZENB is derived from the Japanese phrase “Zenbu” meaning “whole”. ZENB has a delicious snack range inspired by vegetables.

They’re available in 4 different flavours: [...]

Vegan Berry Pancakes

(AD) Lovely fluffy pancakes topped with warm blueberries – my idea of breakfast heaven! Oh…and they’re completely vegan! Now that we’re in lockdown again and most of us are finding ourselves with way too much free time on our hands and not much else to do, cooking and baking has become a welcome pastime for many of us. The great thing about pancakes is that you don’t need to be an experienced cook to be able to pull off beautifully fluffy and delicious pancakes. They’re so easy to make and the result is an amazingly delicious breakfast that anyone and everyone can enjoy. The other nice thing about pancakes is that you can customise them to your taste. Top them [...]

Festive Chocolate Orange Scones Vegan & Gluten-free

*This post is sponsored by FREEE* Is there anything more comforting on a cold, rainy day than a lovely warm homemade scone and a cup of tea? How about a chocolate orange scone? It’s definitely my go to treat for this time of year! These chocolate orange scones are super comforting and they couldn’t be easier to make. I used a mixture of FREEE Gluten Free Self Raising White Flour and oat flour, which I made myself by blending gluten-free oats – try FREEE’s Gluten Free Porridge Oats - into a fine flour in the food processor. The scones are also vegan, but they don’t have to be if you’re not avoiding milk or butter. They can also easily be [...]

California Walnut Za’atar Flat Breads

*This post is sponsored by California Walnuts* This right here is one of my childhood favourites! If you’ve never tried (or even heard of) za’atar you’re missing out big time! It’s basically a blend of herbs (mainly thyme and oregano) with sesame seeds. It’s usually mixed with olive oil and lemon juice then spread on bread/dough to create the most drool worthy flavour combination! It’s definitely a comfort meal for me - a Middle Eastern pizza if you like. I’m adding California Walnut ‘mince’ to my version to add some healthy fats and protein. Did you know that walnuts are the only tree nut to contain a rich source of the plant-based omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) 2.7g/ 30g*? Each 30g [...]

Peanut Butter Protein Breakfast Pudding

 *This post is sponsored by Bulk Powders*  Silky, smooth and satisfying breakfast with added protein. This Peanut Butter protein breakfast pudding tastes more like a dessert, but it's packed with fibre, healthy fats and protein. I love adding protein to my breakfast as it prevents sugar slumps. I used to get the worst sugar crashes. That jittery feeling a couple of hours after breakfast that leaves me feeling irritable, on edge and unable to concentrate. I still get those crashes if I don't eat a well balanced breakfast with protein and fat. Simple carb rich breakfasts low in fat and protein just don't suit me well at all! And so far what I've seen in the clinics I've observed as well [...]

Buckwheat ‘Rice’ Pudding

This buckwheat 'rice' pudding is a healthier take on the original rice pudding. You can enjoy it as a hearty breakfast, lighter dessert or even as a snack. Now that the weather is getting colder, we're all craving warming and comforting foods. Warming bowls like this buckwheat pudding is just what I need to get me out of bed on a cold, dark morning. Spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and ginger making it perfect for autumn and winter months. I used light coconut milk and oat milk to make it lighter since I like eating it for breakfast. You can use full fat coconut milk if you want a creamier, richer texture. You can top it with whatever you fancy, but [...]
