I was recently asked to review Moving Mountains for Healthy Living London and jumped at the opportunity. I have been a fan of Moving Mountains’ meat-free range since I discovered their yummy hot-dogs last year. I have been a veggie for about six years now; previously only eating meat occasionally.

BOOK REVIEW: Out of my Tree (Midsummer House)
Leith’s-trained chef, Susie Morrison, finally found a cookbook which totally floored her.

It left her in a disarray of emotions – from empathy to hate, to admiration. It’s taken me a […]

I love fish. Eating and cooking fish is an increasing part of my everyday lifestyle.

Until I picked up Tom Kitchin’s Fish & […]
BOOK REVIEW: Planted, Chantelle Nicholson
I’ve waited so long for a book like Planted to be released, so when it was, I was there ready and waiting like an excited schoolchild for Amazon to deliver it. Planted is a vegan cookbook, which for once, offers something other than your usual soups, stews and rip-offs of meaty junk food. Chantelle Nicholson […]
