It’s no secret that I love smoothies. They’re one of my favourite ways to start the day and you can’t beat a fruity punch to beat the afternoon slump. However, they’re not always the most convenient snack on the go. This is why I was so excited to try Berry Flirt Instant Smoothies. Made of […]
The Groovy Food Company Organic Coconut Flour – Healthy Coconut Banana Bread
With baking on the rise over the last year, there has been an abundance of recipes and creative concoctions shared. Beautiful pictures have popped up on social media and many attempts have been made to copy these images. I tried, but my goodies often come out looking quite unique! What I appreciate are simple recipes, […]
BOOK REVIEW // The Macro Method
I recently started working with a nutritionist and have switched to tracking my macros. It was completely new territory for me, and I am happy to admit it took a good few weeks to get used to the difference, which was also the same for one of the authors of this book, Helen. I have […]
Tried & Tested // Biona Organic Health Food
This week, a giant box arrived at my door and I have never been more thrilled. This special box happened to contain a variety of all-organic goodies from Biona and I would be using these luscious products to make healthy and scrumptious meals throughout the week. Upon opening the box, I found three varieties of pasta […]
TRIED & TESTED // Simsante Vegan Chocolate
Over recent months I’ve discovered a love of chocolate. Call me late to the party on this, but prior to the latest period of lockdown I’ve not been the biggest eater of chocolate.

TRIED & TESTED // Haskapa Berry Blend Powder
I got to test out a very intriguing new product from the company Haskapa just a few weeks ago. The product itself is a powdered berry blend supercharging your body with antioxidants, and who doesn’t want to have a super charge immune system (especially these days)? Haskapa can be added to smoothies, yogurt and even […]
The Curators Plant Based Mushroom Burger
Summer is heading our way and I can already smell the familiar aroma of BBQs being lit all around the neighbourhood. For vegetarians, the variety of options has recently boomed… thank goodness. I no longer have to stick to just the cold selection at a BBQ, I can now have a choice from many brands […]
TRIED & TESTED // Innocent Super Smoothies Light
I love a smoothie. Some blitzed up fruit and seeds is one of the easiest ways to get a few more nutrients into my diet (which can be a little heavy on the toast at times…I really like toast), they’re quick and I always feel virtuous when I grab a smoothie on the go rather […]
