Pea, Caramelised Onion and Feta Quiche
Who says vegetarian has to be boring? Whoever thinks it is need to try this healthy pea, caramelised onion and feta quiche! It's bursting with flavour, colour and lots of different textures.
Banana, Date & Almond Buckwheat Porridge
If you're familiar with the concept of overnight oats, buckwheat porridge is similar but with a slight twist. Buckwheat is one of those ingredients that not may people are familiar with, outside the health community of course! You can now easily get hold of buckwheat as it's available in most supermarkets and online. I've also noticed more and more brands adding it to their granola, muesli and snack bars.
Homemade Almond Milk 2 Ways – Vanilla & Chocolate (Video)
Homemade almond milk is definitely way creamier and richer than the ones I've tried from the supermarket and the great thing about making your own is that you can make it as sweet as you like and add other flavours like cinnamon, vanilla and chocolate (like I'm doing in this recipe).
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?
How to Make Healthy Porridge (Video)
I filmed a short video showing you how to make healthy porridge - all you need is oats, some form of liquid and a pan! Typically when I make porridge I would add some cinnamon to flavour, a mashed banana, some dried fruit (dates and raisins are my favourote!) for some natural sweetness and some nuts, seeds or nut butter for some healthy fats and a bit of crunch. To top it off, i like to add some fresh fruit, berries and whatever else I fancy on that particular day.
Baked Sweet Potato Fries with Sriracha Mayo
These fries will change your life! Well not really, but if you're trying to be healthier but still want to enjoy chips or 'fries' from time to time (or everyday!) then this might just make your life a little bit brighter.
Gluten Free Vegetarian Spaghetti
As some of you already know, I like keeping my recipes simple. To make this gluten free vegetarian spaghetti I'm making a simple tomato sauce using canned tomatoes and tomato puree and flavouring it with garlic, basil, chilli flakes and lemon jucie. I'm adding peas for some extra colour and texture but feel free to use minced meat or prawns for some protein.
Mixed Berry Chia Pudding
This recipe is as easy as they get! You literally only need 3 main ingredients and then you can add whatever else you like. Chia seeds have very quickly become one of my pantry staples that I can't live without! I've been using them particularly in baking as a substitute for eggs, especially when I'm looking for something denser and less spongy. I think chia eggs work so much better than flax eggs, does anyone else think that?
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.
