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.
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.
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?
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!
The secret ingredient in these blondies and what makes them healthy is – you’ve probably already guessed it – CHICKPEAS! Most of the healthy blondie recipes out there include some sort of nut butter. I wanted to create a nut free recipe for those of you allergic to nuts, and this is the result! Healthy, nut free, vegan, gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free.
This smoothie tastes so so good, kind of like a chocolate milkshake! But all the ingredients will nourish and feed your body. The healthy carbs (from the banana) and protein (from the added protein powder) make it an excellent breakfast or post-workout meal.
This banana blueberry baked oatmeal is vegan, dairy free and can easily be made gluten free. You could add some protein powder, nuts or seeds to make it a more well rounded breakfast.
Making homemade granola is easier than you think. The best thing about making your own granola is that you can customise it to your personal taste. If you like it sweet, add more sweetener. If you don't like raisins, leave them out! The second best thing is that you can avoid all those added calories, processed sugars and other unnecessary ingredients! It's a nice feeling knowing exactly what's going into your body and that it's actually doing you some good!
Crispy and golden on the outside, soft in the middle and an absolute delight to look at! You won't want to go back to plain potatoes ever again!
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 [...]
