So, my attention-grabbing headline is slightly misleading – it’s actually frozen yoghurt. But it’s pure genius. It takes literally seconds to make and is such a treat for breakfast it feels like it should be bad for you, but it’s really healthy. All I did is blend a single portion of frozen fruit with … Continue reading
I have a new obsession – nut creams. I’d never really heard of nut creams until I saw a demo of a Vitamix blender at the weekend. Rather impressive it was, yet extremely pricey for a blender, albeit one that can make silky smooth cream from just nuts and water. The cream demonstrated by the Vitamix … Continue reading
Quite often I end up eating cereal for breakfast during the week, as it’s quick. But when I have time, I prefer to have something different, for variety and to avoid over-doing it with cereals and grains. I made a very simple breakfast frittata with some leftovers: 1 large egg a slice of ham, chopped … Continue reading
I really wish I could have made this look a bit prettier! But it tasted divine and it’s lighter and healthier than traditional lasagne. Today was just an assembly job as I already had the bolognese sauce in the freezer. Everybody has a bolognese recipe so I don’t think I need to reproduce mine in full … Continue reading
Breakfast in the week is always such a rush, so we like to make something a bit more special at the weekends. Home made Scotch pancakes with maple syrup & bacon were a big favourite but off the menu now for me, due to the flour, the sugar and the syrup – triple whammy! It’s taken … Continue reading

However, sometimes I find myself being more than a bit grateful that my food quest … Continue reading
I really want to share this recipe because it’s become a staple in my house. It’s great on so many levels: it’s quick and simple to make, super healthy because of all the green veg, the kids love it, and it’s a great way of using up broccoli stalks which would otherwise go in the … Continue reading
I’ve written a review of Orgran Gluten Free Pizza and Pastry Multimix for the Gluten Free Centre. You can read it here. This is the rather yummy pizza I made with it, topped with chicken, artichokes and peppers. Continue reading
We love a good breakfast in my house. On lazy weekend mornings hubby and I love to sit with a big mug of coffee and indulge in a nice hearty breakfast, to ring the changes from our midweek cereal scoffing. I was looking for interesting brunch recipes for over Christmas, when I came across this … Continue reading
This is my first coeliac Christmas and it’s taken me by surprise. Nine months in and I thought I was getting used to the change in eating habits. But Christmas is really an added challenge, isn’t it? Things I tend to forget about from year to year seem to keep popping up to taunt me: … Continue reading
