After all the fuss of the Christmas come down and New Year’s resolutions I totally forgot to post a seasonal recipe and now we’re well into January. So, although a little late, here’s some ideas to kick start you into a healthy New Year.
In season this month are lots of super healthy vegetables such [...]

Christmas is here (well nearly), only 5 more days. Just in case you’re not super organised and have already got everything all squared away (like me), I’m going to offer you some great recipes that’ll be perfect for Christmas day.
We’ll be having Figs and Goats cheese to start, with a balsamic vinegar glaze – [...]

I’m yet to feel back to my fully energetic self but, as I refuse to watch another episode of Jeremy Kyle, I have been reading lots of organic recipe books in the mean time. This has given me yet another seasonal recipe to offer you. This one’s a great dessert or breakfast for this time [...]
