TURMERIC SMOOTHIE XX. If you haven’t got a herb garden or fresh herbs and spices to hand, don’t fret! I love using dried spices in my food and they can have amazing health benefits that you may not be aware of.

I could have this for breakfast, lunch or dinner! It definitely feels like a meal so is something I would have after a big workout or on my rest day when my body is craving some serious nutrition. I often have this with smoked salmon which works really well! I cook my quinoa as outlined in this recipe.

You could say I’m a control freak (….understatement!) and as you know from my previous posts I hate being caught out eating bad food when its not on my terms. Cue service stations…

Recipe for vegan spicy almond chai….my favourite cuppa! You might already know that my battle with Rosacea has left me without my beloved coffee, every morning I will have a cup of black chai or earl grey tea and that is my fix!

As I’ve said in other recipes I don’t have a particularly sweet tooth! However, if I am caught out its nice to know that what I am consuming is all natural and not full of refined sugar (and who knows what else!).

Tropical smoothie recipe. I love tropical flavours like these, in my opinion you really can’t beat, fresh pineapple, mango and coconut..YUM!

EASY CHEAT MEAL XX. I usually have an avocado on my windowsill, a tin of organic tuna in the cupboard, free range eggs in my fridge and some quinoa and brown rice in my pantry.

I wanted to put this on my site before I forget about it! As well as it looking so pretty it was so tasty and full of lots of goodness! I love my smoothie bowls (if you follow me on instagram you will know only too well!) and this is a great one to add to the collection 🙂

I’m not vegan but I have found my overall health and skin improve since cutting down on dairy. I can’t remember the last time I drank cows milk and now that i’ve seen the ease in making my own fresh nut milks I can’t see myself ever going back.

I thought these would be perfect to make for Valentines Day 🙂 I love chocolate, orange and ginger combined, so good! I have used raw, organic crystallised ginger…

I really didn’t realise how easy ‘nut milks’ are to make until recently and you can create so many infusions and flavours to suit your taste or that dream smoothie you keep on thinking about.

Everyone is always telling me that they find it really hard to cut down on bread. I can understand why, its so easy to make sandwiches and take them to work, make some toast in the morning and buy that crusty baguette on the way home.

This is a simple smoothie I make at home when I pick up a few kiwi’s at the market. I usually always have mixed berries in my fridge or freezer so I can add in other fruits when I like.

These breakfast muffins couldn’t get much easier and make a nice variation if you’ve got stuck eating scrambled egg on toast every morning. I say ‘breakfast’ muffins but you could eat them at any time of the day and if you make a few extra…

C’mon its all time that we embraced ourselves and worshipped the bodies we were given! This bowl, is a firm favourite of mine and something I could eat for a late breakfast, lunch or dinner quite happily.

You can’t go wrong with a good smoothie bowl! I love making this when its roasting hot and I’ve just got back from my run! I find it so hydrating with the coconut water and satisfying….its like dessert for breakfast really!!

This is basically a sweet version of my salad topper it’s so easy and handy to throw on top of fresh fruit, yoghurt, oats, smoothies, smoothie bowls and so on. I normally just use what I have in my cupboard which could include any type of nuts, dried fruit and seeds.

In the last few years I feel we have been inundated with countless green smoothie recipes…….this is something I have clearly embraced but I’ve realised not everyone has quite the same taste when it comes to drinking kale for breakfast.

Quinoa is only something I’ve been eating for the last couple of years and now it is so common in healthfood shops, organic cafe’s and even supermarkets that I would say its part of my staple diet.

Whenever I tell any close friends or family in the UK that I’m craving a nice vegie hot pot/soup they think I’m mad! I know we are lucky with the hot weather here in Australia but sometimes it does get cold and for some reason I feel the cold here more than I do at home!
