For the last couple of weeks I have really been putting my new Nutribullet through its paces. Anything that can be smoothied, has been smoothied! It’s so simple to use, easy to clean and blends everything to smooth perfection. Every green smoothie I seem to…
It is FREEZING in London at the moment so we have been filling ourselves up with lots of homemade soups, stews and curries. We have also headed back to the gym (at last), it’s amazing how just a few endorphins (and a lot of sweat)…
Now I’m not going to lie to you, I’m going to be brutally honest. I have not been to the gym in five weeks… Ok I suppose it’s technically six. There, I’ve said it, I’ve confessed. My body is so unused to movement that after…
If you fancy a bowl full of soup packed with vitamins that’s super quick, cheap and utterly delicious then look no further. This is a soup that I can guarantee you will want seconds and thirds from and before you know it you will be…
There is nothing more comforting and delicious than a bowl of steaming porridge, especially when you know you aren’t going to end up bloated, lethargic and feeling unwell. Free from anything nasty, this is one of my favourite breakfasts, especially at Winter time as it’s…

I love nothing more than getting off the bus after a day at work, climbing over the railway footbridge and back down the other side to my haven. The rows of little cottages swathed in gold from the old black street lamps and the smell…
The word on everyone’s lips at the moment it seems is “Kale”. Â A member of the cabbage family, the beautiful and delicious leaves of the kale plant provide a rich earthy flavour and more nutritional value for fewer calories than almost any other food around.…
If chocolate, chilli and salt were people they would undoubtedly be best friends. To me chocolate with a small hint of salt or chilli is just perfection. Add orange and mint to that list too and you have me drooling. This recipe came to me…
It’s that time of year again when every shop, stall or market you go to has an abundance of amazing pumpkins. Home windows are ablaze with glowing faces and the magic and excitement for the end of the year really starts to build. The great thing about…
