I have been using protein powders for years, but stopped taking whey protein powders a long time ago because they just didn’t agree with me. Whey can be difficult to digest and if you don’t tolerate dairy well, like me, it’s always been a bit of a no-no. Enter, KIN. KIN add probiotics (good gut bacteria)… Read more »
A cheeky prompt on Instagram made me realise
Soooo, I could eat pesto all day everyday, on everything. As I’ve been feeling slightly run down recently (the cold dark nights might have something to do with it. I just don’t do well in Winter), I decided to add some spinach to my usual pesto recipe for a much needed iron and energy boost. What a… Read more »
Hold the front door. I’ve long been a fan of courgetti (spirals of courgette used as a pasta/noodle substitute for those of you living under a rock), but butternut squash noodles are new to me, and I have no idea why because they are bloomin’ lovely. I always find butternut squash to be slightly underrated… Read more »
I’ve had heaps of kale lying around, so I decided the best way to make use of it was to make crisps. They are so easy to make and a bloody delight to munch on! The trick is not to over crowd them otherwise they steam and go soggy, and to keep an eye on them… Read more »

The number of overweight or obese people in the world has topped 2.1 BILLION (* source – Lancet show). These figures are staggering. In a world with an abundance of food options we are… Read more »
Spring is here! Yay! I am loving this warmer weather, and it always inspires me to get creative with lighter dishes. This courgette ‘noodle’ recipe is one of my favourites – it really holds the sauce well and the texture is great so you can literally twist it round a fork and shovel in like… Read more »
Almonds – one of my favourite go to snacks. Full of Vitamin E and healthy fats for beautiful hair, skin and nails, this little nut really packs a nutritional punch. Little tip – if you can, get them from an Indian shop – you’ll get a mahoosive bag for next to nothing, none of this £3.99… Read more »
Bear with me, as I know pizza and low-carb is a bit of an oxymoron, but not anymore! I love pizza (er, who doesn’t right!) but the heavy wheat and dairy combo doesn’t fare well with me, so it’s very very rarely on my list of things to eat. Well that was until I discovered… Read more »
