Zaatar Taro Baked Fries (Gluten Free, Vegan)

By , March 19, 2022

I should really call these disappearing fries as every time I make them and leave them on the counter, half of them are gone by the time I come back (mentioning no names, Mum and Mr. B) They are delicious and taste similar to normal fries, although they seem to crisp up better. I now

Almond Flour Lemon Yogurt Cake (Gluten Free, High Protein)

By , March 12, 2022

‘Timeless and versatile, almonds are an organic shade that speak to authenticity and all that is natural’ I found this recipe in Goop, when looking for ‘alternative’ flour recipes. I love using almond flour, as it such a wonderful whole food ingredient and brings a natural sweetness to the recipe. Almonds are also full of

Vegan Cashew Cheese Sauce (Gluten Free, Vegan)

By , March 6, 2022

‘Just say cheese’ When I turned to vegetarianism at the tender age of 13, one of the things I missed most was my mum’s roast lamb. She would make it at Christmas, Easter and on request for special occasions. One of the things that made up for giving this up was to get extra portions

Breakfast Oat Cookies (Gluten Free, High Protein, Vegan)

By , February 19, 2022

‘It’s much harder to be sad, when eating a cookie’ I love these cookies, as they take 5 minutes to make and 10 minutes to bake. They are great for kids, with the sweetness coming from the banana, protein from the nut/seed butter and great fibre from the oats. They are pretty much the equivalent

‘Home is where heart is. Heart is where cookie is. Math clear: Home is cookie’ – Cookie Monster This recipe uses coconut flour, used predominantly by the paleo community for its high fibre, low carbohydrate quality. The flour has good fats and protein, is nutritive and satiating.  Coconut flour absorbs more moisture than other flours,

Italian Frittata (Gluten Free, High Protein)

By , January 15, 2022

‘Food is the ingredient that binds us together’ This dish was requested by Mr B. It is something his mum makes in all different forms, changing the vegetable dependent on the season. His favourite is the squash blossom version, which they make a lot as they produce them in their garden. The asparagus and artichoke

Grain Free Bircher Muesli (Gluten Free, Vegan)

‘One kind word can warm three winter months’ This is a beautiful recipe for the winter. It is grounding due to the seed and nuts being used in place of grains and can be eaten warm or cold. It is rich in protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals. It is a great recipe to batch, with

Chocolate Almond Cream Pie (Gluten Free, Vegan)

By , January 2, 2022

‘A new year means a new chapter. I hope 2022 is an incredible part of your story’. ‘I didn’t hear the question, but the answer is chocolate’ sounds like a Mr B quote! This was a gift for him as a count-down to new year. I made the pie and some extra chocolate mousse and

Paleo Maple Walnut Biscotti (Gluten Free, High Protein)

By , December 26, 2021

‘You can’t buy happiness, but you can bake biscotti and that is kind of the same thing’ Biscotti is a staple in my Italian in-law’s house. They consider it a compulsory item with coffee and so it is usually the first thing that they eat in the morning. Biscotti was also the first item I

Breakfast Oatmeal Cake (Gluten Free, Vegan)

By , December 18, 2021

This is a great recipe, as it is a breakfast that tastes like chocolate cake. In fact, I would go as far as to say you could serve it as a dessert at a dinner party.  If you follow my blog, you’ll know that I am a big fan of oats. In my recipes you’ll
