It’s wheat free, gluten free, vegetarian and vegan and baby friendly too, but is it tasty? OH YES. This is one of those meals that I hadn’t made for ages, I tend to get into a cycle of making certain meals and forget about all the others that are out there. Suddenly seeing the bag […]
Should we all be Vegetarian?
Meat. A lot of us eat it. A lot of us like it. Really we should be eating less of it though. Why you ask? Are you serious? Sorry but Yes. Although meat itself is not bad, eating too much of it is not good. It contain saturated fat which can contribute to heart disease. […]
Courgette Lasagne with Fresh Buckwheat pasta.
Today was a cold day and when I say cold I mean COLD – not wanting to go outside, a prefer to stay under the duvet and drink tea type of day. Having a one year old generally means duvet days are not allowed, but it has been a day when I’ve not been quite […]
Goodies Snack Bars – Product Review and Giveaway
The lovely people at Organix kindly sent me a packet of their new Veg and Oat Bars for my little lady to try. They must have known I’ve been in snack bar mode, having just made some banana, date and oat bars of our own at the weekend. These ones are tomato and carrot flavoured, […]
Big Up The Butterbean Hummous
Hummous…. it’s a wonderful thing. In our household it’s truly loved…on toast, on rice cakes, on rye bread, with raw veggies and sometimes with a few crisps (yes I did just say that!). My personal favourite is with raw carrots. Nomalicious. So as group of hummous loving people, why do so many of us buy […]
Superhealthy oaty bars.
Flapjacks go down a storm in our house, I’m wheat free so they fill a much needed gap in my mouth. Now it seem little Kezia is a bit of a flapjack lover. In fact, as soon as she spies the tin I keep them in I get a pointy finger and a sign for […]
Bye Bye NHS, Hello Freelance World.
So this week has been a momentous one for me, in fact this month has been pretty huge. At the start of this month and this year I won an #SBS award from Theo Paphitis (Dragon’s Den), a huge surprise and honour. Then I had the excitement of my new logo being unveiled, which makes […]
The danger of seeing the wrong nutrition professional – Nutritional Therapists Exposed.
A big nutrition story hit the headlines this week, an expose on nutritional therapists. It makes for a very interesting and scary read… Medical experts were sent undercover as patients to 15 nutritional therapists. The results were worrying. About half of the nutritional therapists gave advice that could have endangered the health of the patient. […]
One chicken, 4 meals, no waste.
We’re not the most traditional family and I must admit I like that. So no roast over Christmas for us, and usually no Sunday roast either. However today, being my husbands weekend off we made the most of it and had a roast. Everytime we do this I remember how tasty it is, how much […]
What is “Normal” Eating?
The words “normal” eating mean all kinds of things to all kinds of people. In my line of work with eating disorder clients I’m often encouraging them to move towards a more “normal” eating plan and we discuss what that looks like. Today I asked on twitter what “normal” eating means to people and below […]
