Sweet Potato and White Bean Fritters

These fritters have become a key staple of our household’s breakfasts, snacks and quick lunches. These are gently spiced, which makes them so satisfying with the crispy fried edges of grated sweet potato and the creaminess of the smashed white beans. Toddler and grown up approved, even as a cold lunchbox snack. Serving with a […]

Braised Lamb Shanks

Honestly, slow cooking is one of my favourite ways to cook – not only does it lets flavours develop slowly and meld together beautifully… It’s so easy to make some of the most affordable cuts of meat absolutely melt in your mouth. But on the flip side, I also love pressure cooking – when i’m […]

Spiced Orange and Almond Cake

When there’s an abundance of oranges in our household (and I have some time up my sleeve) this is my go-to cake recipe, it’s got a great balance of tartness, sweetness and warmth from the spices. You actually make it by boiling whole oranges, combined with almond flour (good fibre) and only a handful of […]

Ginger Chicken Noodle Soup

This winter has been an absolutely brutal one for sickness in our household, the bugs have really hit us hard… and I know we’re not the only ones! So thought it was about time to share this easy, one pot recipe that anyone can whip up when someone is feeling a bit under the weather. […]

Quick Crustless Quiche

This is an absolute winner of a quiche recipe that I love having in my back pocket for busy weeks and batch cooking. My favourite time to cook this one up is when i’ve already got the oven on with something else cooking for dinner – i.e. our Shepherd’s pie or Italian Chicken tray bake […]

Walnut, Cranberry and Orange Bites

As oranges start to come into season, you’re probably going to end up with a bowl full from your neighbour or friend and get stuck wondering what you could do with them. These walnut, orange and cranberry energy balls taste like Christmas to me – something about the orange, cranberry and light coating of coconut […]

Preconception nutrients for him and her

Did you know that approximately 40% of all infertility cases are men? So when it comes to preconception care we need to think about both mum and dad. Two cells. Two diets. Two people who both want to make a healthy beautiful baby. Despite what people might think, there are some hugely impactful and simple […]

Slow Cooked Lamb Shoulder Stew

This is absolutely one of my favourite winter dishes, the Middle-Eastern style spices combined with the dates give it a warmth and depth that is just SO good. After 8 hours the lamb shoulder is so tender it just melts in your mouth – but it also translates really well into a pressure cooker (see […]
