Raw Chocolate & Nut Energy Bites
Raw Chocolate & Nut Energy Bites I've recently cut out a few things from my diet including added sugar, gluten, processed foods and caffeinated drinks to try and heal my gut and reduce my anxiety levels. There are 2 things I'm really REALLY missing so far - tea and chocolate! Over the years I have developed the habit of drinking way too much black tea. I could easily drink 7 cups a day, especially when I'm home and/or in the evenings, which as you can imagine it the worst time to be drinking caffeine! I also got used to ending each meal with something sweet, usually a square of dark chocolate. Although I would always have the 72-90% cocoa varieties, but they still have added sugar [...]

Raspberry Chia Jam
Before embarking on my healthy eating journey, I never thought to make my own homemade jam. It just seemed like too much of a faff and when you have endless options at the supermarket, why bother? But how amazing would it be to be able to make your own healthy homemade jam that's sugar free, mostly fruit and takes only 5 minutes to make? Seems to good to be true, right?
Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Red Pesto
You know sometimes when you come across a recipe and straight away you think "This looks too difficult" and you move on before actually reading the recipe and knowing what goes into it, well for me, homemade gnocchi was one of those recipes! I'd seen a few people making homemade sweet potato gnocchi but I've always thought there is no way this is not going to be fiddly! Now I realise how completely wrong I was!
Healthy Vegan Brownies
Brownies are probably one of my favourite desserts. Dense, rich, sweet and most importantly full of chocolatey goodness! What's not to love?! I don't think I've ever come across anyone who doesn't love brownies. However, they do tend to leave a heavy feeling in my stomach. Not surprising when you consider the mountain of sugar and fat that's added to a typical brownie recipe.
Quick Prawn Coconut Curry
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 [...]
Almond Cranberry and Pistachio Cookies (Gluten-free & Vegan)
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 [...]
