Green Goddess scrambled eggs

Green Goddess scrambled eggs

How do you like your eggs in the morning? Well, today I’ve had mine green and scrambled as we are heading out of London for the day to visit friends in Winchester, so before we left I thought we should have a nutritious, protein rich breakfast. Eggs…

Spicy butternut squash soup

Spicy butternut squash soup

It shocks me to see how much added sugar, preservatives and stabilizers are added to well-known supposedly “healthy” soups that we can buy in Supermarkets. Even the “green” ones are riddled with additives portraying a fake healthy façade to con us in to a false sense…

Sunday mornings are notoriously a day of rest and baking in our little home, so waking up to the sun blazing through the windows and the wonderfully talented Deliciously Ella’s  most recent You Tube clip in my inbox, it was looking like a perfect Sunday.

Paleo Porridge

Paleo Porridge

It’s breakfast time so I thought I would start the morning off with a delicious gluten-free, dairy free and more importantly – 100% Paleo porridge! Before I changed to a Paleo diet, porridge was always my “go to” breakfast of choice. There’s something so comforting about the…
