Grounding porridge
This time last year I went on a transformational retreat with Nicky Clinch and what I didn’t expect to change as a result was how I responded to food. I’ve always been the queen of smoothies, quick, nutritious, and for me, the perfect breakfast at any time of the...
Anytime crumble
This has to be one of my favourite recipes. What I like about this crumble is that it's a nice healthy dessert, if you want some pudding after your dinner but you can eat it for breakfast too! My kids are loving it for breakfast at the moment....
Raspberry and banana pancakes
My kids love pancakes and I always use a recipe from Anna Jones’ cookbook a ‘A modern way to cook’ - with the addition of spinach, my kids love green pancakes! This weekend I didn’t have the ingredients I needed so I created these pancakes inspired by...
