I am the first to admit that I can’t seem to sustain a Vegan diet for good, let alone a month! But Veganuary is a great opportunity to try and cut back on meat and dairy and the recent trend over the years has really made us think about what we eat. For me and…

Pan Fried Sea Bass, Spicy Cannellini Beans and Fresh Basil Pesto
I took a trip to the Mediterranean this week, but only went as far as my kitchen. I am craving a holiday so much. I miss trying new foods and learning about new cultures. One of my favourite places to visit is Italy. The food there is so fresh and inviting, and its not all…

Chai Spiced Coconut Porridge
We’ve all been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and I agree! I can’t seem to start my day without a hearty breakfast, and porridge is the go to choice. It truly does keep me full until lunch but like anything, I get bored of the same old combinations. Therefore…
Tandoori Chicken Salad with Braised Lettuce
Sounds posh right? It really isn’t. I love a good salad but I tend to get bored very easily. Also when the weather is cold, I can’t seem to face a cold salad. I want something warm and comforting, but also healthy and exciting. This is my twist on a chicken salad. Spicy tandoori chicken…

Sunday Slow Cooked Lamb Stew
Everyone loves a lazy Sunday, or at least a Sunday when you are not slaving away in the kitchen all day long. To me its a day to catch up on everything that I don’t get to do during the week and to find time to take a long walk by the canal, bake a…
Poached eggs, Smashed Avocado and Sour Dough Toast
Weekends are about lazy mornings and great food in my eyes. After a busy week at work, I long to make something comforting that requires a bit more time on a Saturday or Sunday morning. This is not exactly a recipe as you might have seen this everywhere but I had to share it with…
Chicken and Mushroom Roulade wrapped in Parma Ham
I know what you are thinking, ‘that sounds posh!’ But it really isn’t. It’s a great dish to make on the weekend and impress your friends and it can be prepared in advance. I just made this recipe based on what was in my fridge, and you can do the same. Chicken is so versatile…
