Protein Mango Coconut Chia Pudding

A delicious breakfast that's packed with protein. This protein mango coconut chia pudding is great to prepare ahead of time for a fuss-free breakfast that you can also take with you on-the-go on busy mornings.  Chia pudding is such a versatile breakfast. You can customise it with various ingredients like fruits, nuts, seeds, spices, sweeteners, and flavourings to suit your taste preferences. The flavour combination possibilities are endless, meaning you can make a different variation every day without getting bored of it.  My current favourite flavour combination for breakfast is mango and coconut. Even though we'll shortly be heading into winter and the cold weather is slowly creeping in, I'm still craving cold, refreshing and vibrant breakfasts. If anything they [...]

Vegan Strawberry Chocolate Protein Cupcakes

These vegan strawberry chocolate protein cupcakes are super delicious topped with a simple 3-ingredient protein chocolate frosting. They’re easy, made with healthier ingredients and packed with 15g protein per cupcake!  Why I love making these vegan strawberry chocolate protein cupcakes: I love adding protein powder to my treats. It’s such an easy way to add extra goodness without compromising on taste or texture. The great thing about using flavoured protein powders is that they also add some sweetness, meaning you don’t need to use as much sugar as you would in a regular recipe. Not only are these cupcakes high in protein, they’re also lower in added sugar!  I also love using finely ground oats instead of plain flour in [...]

Hazelnut Chocolate Protein Bars

These hazelnut chocolate protein bars make a great snack or healthier dessert - perfect when you're craving something sweet and chocolatey. Even better is that they're made with wholesome ingredients and they're no-bake! There's no dairy in them and they also happen to be gluten-free, so a great option for those with allergies/food intolerances.  I'm sure most of you will agree that nothing pairs better in desserts than chocolate and hazelnuts. There's something about those 2 ingredients that when merged together they scream luxury, probably because we associate them with delicious treats like Nutella and Ferrero Rocher. I don't know about you, but I definitely have a weakness for both, especially the latter ?. Nuts in general are a great [...]

Mocha Buckwheat Pudding (Vegan | GF | High Protein)

Delicious, super smooth and chocolaty - this mocha buckwheat pudding can be enjoyed for breakfast, as a snack or a healthy dessert! Breakfast is my most favourite meal of the day by far! I've said it before and I'll say it again, if I could I would eat breakfast foods for breakfast, lunch AND dinner. I wake up looking forward to it, so I wanted to share with you my current favourite breakfast that's easy to make, balanced and tastes so good. A lot of people seem to struggle with breakfast ideas, especially breakfasts that are healthy with good amounts of protein, fibre and healthy fats. I recently rediscovered buckwheat pudding, which I hadn't had since making this blueberry buckwheat pudding. It's [...]

Curry Spice Tofu Burgers (Vegan & Gluten-free)

An easy plant-based 'Fakeaway' idea made with healthier ingredients - these curry spice tofu burgers are delicious & a great source of protein! I'm a huge fan of tofu - it's a great plant-based source of protein + calcium, both of which can be lacking in many plant-based meals. It's also such a versatile ingredient, one that I'm always trying new ways to be creative with. I love coming up with fun, exciting/tasty ways to include it into healthy meals. Due to its high protein levels, it's also an easy way to increase the protein content of a disg without adding processed fake meats.  I made these tofu patties a while ago and they were a huge hit, so I [...]

Vegan Protein Gingerbread Hot Chocolate

What's better than a warming hot cup of cocoa? This vegan protein gingerbread hot chocolate is exactly what you need to stay warm this winter.  Up until recently, I was never a hot chocolate girl and had never been interested in it...ever! Which is strange considering I'm such a huge chocolate fan. I've always preferred to eat my chocolate rather than drink it.  Around this time last year, all that changed. A chocolate brand gifted me some of their chocolate bars along with a tub of their hot chocolate. I thought why not give it a try since I have it. That was the day I developed this insatiable taste for hot chocolate that never went away. Most hot chocolate [...]

Spicy Chickpea Avocado Toast

A delicious meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner! This spicy chickpea avocado toast is a must try! I love having toast on weekend mornings for brunch - it makes a really nice change from my regular breakfast, which tends to be sweet like a smoothie or porridge. There's something about having a savoury breakfast that makes me feel like it's my day off to relax and unwind! This spicy chickpea avocado toast is one of my go-tos for lunch when I want something quick and easy that's also satisfying and healthy. It's also perfect for those days when dinner time arrives and you haven't had a chance to plan anything and want to whip something up [...]

Protein Chocolate Cupcakes with a simple 3-ingredient protein chocolate frosting. They're easy to make, delicious and made using healthier ingredients! I love adding protein powder to my treats. It's such an easy way to add extra goodness without compromising on taste or texture. The great thing about using flavoured protein powders is that they also add some sweetness, meaning you don't need to use as much sugar as you would in a regular recipe. Not only are these cupcakes high in protein, they're also lower in added sugar!  I also love using finely ground oats instead of plain flour in my bakes. I find it works amazingly well in so many recipes.  These cupcakes are topped with a simple 3-ingredient [...]

Vegan Protein Ferrero Rocher

Who can say no to a Ferrero Rocher? What if I told you you can make them at home with healthier ingredients? These vegan protein Ferrero Rocher are a must try! I had just ordered a new tub of hazelnut butter and was brainstorming fun ways to use it in a recipe. I'm a massive fan of using protein powder in treats and it occurred to me that I hadn't made a protein recipe in a while. That's when the idea of making a protein version of the well-loved classic treat came to me. I already have a healthier Ferrero Rocher recipe on my blog (find the recipe here), but I wanted to make another version that had added protein. [...]
