Vegan Gluten-free Cherry Oat Bars

Vegan Gluten-free Cherry Oat Bars

*This post in sponsored by KoRo* Fruity bars made with healthier ingredients - these vegan gluten-free cherry oat bars make a delicious snack or on-the-go breakfast. It's always handy to have a healthier treat in the fridge to grab when you're feeling snacky, but I also feel these cherry oat bars make a really nice light dessert. Especially now that the weather is warming up, fruity desserts are always my go-to during the summer months. Cherries are by far my favourite kind of berry! They have so much flavour, especially when they're in season - I can just keep eating and eating them. Unfortunately they're not in season here in the UK yet, but I had a major craving for [...]

Blended Matcha Overnight Oats

Blended Matcha Overnight Oats

*This post is Sponsored by Very* January is widely considered to be the wellness month of the year. From setting New Years resolutions, following ‘cleanse’ diets, cutting out booze for dry January or setting a goal to eat less animal products for Veganuary. So many of us embark on a mission to improve our health, well-being and start the year the right way. The only problem is, for many, once January is over it’s more difficult to keep the momentum going. ‘Wellness fatigue’ kicks in and sticking to a healthy lifestyle becomes more difficult, tedious and seems to require a lot more effort. You’ve probably heard the phrase ‘it’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle’ a lot, but it’s true! [...]

Christmas is always a hectic time of year for everyone, and we all deserve a good break post the madness of the big day. Cooking and food preparation of any kind is the last thing I want to think of in the days leading up to New Year’s day.

Chocolate Filled Peanut Butter Energy Balls

Chocolate Filled Peanut Butter Energy Balls

A delicious healthier snack to keep your craving at bay - these chocolate filled peanut butter energy balls are satisfying, yet made with healthier ingredients. I'm sure I'm not the only feeling this, but since the temperature suddenly dropped a couple of weeks ago, I seem to be finding myself a lot hungrier than usual. I want to eat all the time! The clocks going back and losing day light hasn't helped either. The days have become so gloomy that I'm finding myself seeking comfort in food. I do separate my 'treats' from my everyday snacks and I have to make an active effort not to constantly snack on unhealthy treats. A biscuit or a dessert here and there as [...]

Salsa Vegan Grilled Cheese

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! [...]
