Berry Bowls

This is the way to do breakfast when you really need that tasty boost to see you through the morning. Plus, it looks so pretty! I bought this sugar free granola ready made (but it was a wee bit pricier than I hoped it would be) so here is a recipe I found if you'd…

Blueberry and banana star porridge

Today’s breakfast had a touch of magic about it! It’s nearly halfway through #veganuary and I figured I might as well jazz brekkie up a bit. I used pure oats warmed slowly in the pan with almond coconut milk and a dash of cinnamon, then threw in some chopped banana and a handful of blueberries. Served decorated…

Peanut butter noodle bowls

Hey hungry people! So, I sort of made this dish up more out of necessity than creativity. I am in no way talented in the kitchen but this takes just FIVE minutes to make and I find it quite tasty, so I figured if you have a long work day like me and also get…

Vegan pizza that actually tastes amazing

I had absolutely no idea this was going to work and you have no idea how delighted I am that it did. The hardest thing I find with plant-based dairy free diets is the lack of cheese and the large amount of bizarre tasting things on offer pretending to be cheese. As one veggie friend…

Creamy mushroom pasta

Ooooh this was yummy! I’m in my first week of focusing on #veganuary and properly trying #plantbased food and it’s been a wee bit of a struggle. But then I discovered this little pasta wonder from @deliciouslyella. I’ve used a lot of her recipes in the past and I like how simple but super tasty they are. This is a…

This health thing is friggin’ hard

It's Monday. The first day at work after a two week holiday in beautiful South Africa, land of elephants, sunsets and incredible food. Over the fortnight I did not so much as fall off the health wagon as I did propel myself from it headfirst into a vat of pancakes, full fat cola and cheeseburgers.…

Almond tofu noodle bowl

This was a simple experiment that came from having only a handful of ingredients in the fridge but I'm pretty fond of it now! It's the sort of five minute meal that is great when you're back late from work and need food NOW. All you do is chuck it all in a pan and…

Warming sweet potato curry with coconut and lemongrass

Autumn is underway and that means crispy cool evenings and in my kitchen - curries! I've tried a lot of different warming dishes in my quest to find a healthy option and this little fire cracker is one of my favourites. It's a Deliciously Ella concoction - I swear I do have other bloggers I…

Turmeric latte

You know those rainy days where the clouds look bruised and moody and the water hits the windows so loudly it feels as though you are trapped in a bubble in a waterfall? Those are the days I reach for the turmeric. This is a wonderful little spice that turns rice golden and has a…

Shiitake mushroom noodle bowl

This little number only takes 15 minutes to make and tastes, to me, like a posh Pot Noodle. It's a basic 'chuck everything in and heat it' dish and has proved to be an absolute saviour when I get back from work late. To be honest, everything added to noodles tastes good, but I do…
