This recipe is from the first mess, a beautiful blog then book. It reminded me of the tea I had in Tibet over 20 years ago. The tea was made of Yak milk and had a little butter on the top. This sustains the caffeine in the tea. It certainly worked for the people in …
This recipe is mainly a blend and set. It doesn’t take long and is made with amazing healthy ingredients. Raw cacao powder has a large amount of iron and magnesium as well as fibre and protein (2 tablespoons has 4g protein). Hazelnuts are a rich source of nutrients and healthy fats including omega 6 and 9 …
This recipe is straight out of Bon Appetit. Normally I’ll take a base recipe and adapt it, but this recipe was perfect. Healthy, simple and quick. The Chia acts as the binder, so you don’t need any extra ingredients like pectin. My blueberries were sweet enough, so I only needed the 3-tbsp. maple syrup, but …
‘Food is symbolic of love, when words are inadequate’ It was Mr. B and my anniversary this week and so I made him this pie and for the first time in seven years he cooked for me. Ahh, yes, Mr. B is allowed in the kitchen, but I think once every seven years may be …

“Good food is all the sweeter, when shared with good friends” This is a beautiful light dessert, with the sweet fragrance of a souk from the rose petals and pistachios. It is an easy blender recipe, with the base made mainly of dates and nuts and the topping 90% avocado. I served it at the …
‘I love sleep as it is a time machine to breakfast’ As Mr B and I have taken on new roles at our companies this year, we have a little less time in the mornings and evenings and so I have been trying to think up some new recipes for a grab and go breakfast …
This is one of those desserts…. one bite and addictive! ‘I don’t often eat Baklava, but when I do, I eat the whole tray…’ Here is an easy, peasy, lemon squeezy recipe for you to try out at home. It is such a beautiful taste and the smell of toasted pistachios is an added bonus. …
Cardamom Ice-cream (Vegan, DF, GF) I love the simplicity and pureness of this recipe, filled with amazing ingredients straight from Mother Nature’s door!
