Porridge, overnight oats, oat smoothies, banana oat loaf, oaty bites, oat cookies, granola, flapjacks – not much you can’t do when it comes to variation with oats. And now I bring you baked oatmeal. Whatta brekkie! Y’all know I love my chai flavours so I threw some cardamom, cinnamon and saffron in there and topped…

How To Grow Your Own Herbs At Home – Guest Post By Trago
Throughout the centuries herbs have been used for more than just adding flavour and colour to your favourite dishes, they have been used by herbalists, apothecaries and even doctors for their healing and restorative powers… What is a herb? The Oxford Dictionary outlines a herb as: ‘Any plant where the leaves, seeds or flowers are…
Vegan No-Fry Chickpea & Sweetcorn Fritters
And so the battle to come up with new and exciting things for Braxton to eat every day continues… Well, not just for Brax but for us too, because he pretty much eats what we eat now (depending on what mood he’s in, and food is always a volatile subject when it comes to him!)….
Vegan Chocolate Frosted Brownies
Is there anything more satisfying than an indulgent chocolate brownie? How about when you know that said brownie is free of refined sugar, gluten, wheat, grains, dairy, eggs, soya and preservatives? Sound good? How about if I tell you that they are SUPER easy to make? Sold? Great! Get baking! Surprising though it may sound,…
3-Ingredient Blackberry Chia Jam
Yes yes, I’m that mum that makes jam, the mum that people take the mick out of; ‘Oh I’m not going to sit at home and make my own jam.’ Well I’m proud of the fact that everything my family eats is made by us. And what beats homemade breads and jams? I certainly don’t…

But after years of deliberating, I have decided that I prefer ‘Zucchini’, despite the fact that I am British and should be calling it courgette. Well, I’ve never…
Fry’s Family Gluten Free Vegan Burgers
Of course I didn’t make these vegan burgers myself, they are by the amazing Fry’s Family vegan foods. They are non-GMO and the only ‘oven food’ we’ll use in our house. It’s really great if you do need an easy dinner, without having to opt for rubbish fish fingers. I made the slaw and the…

We took along our vintage Fortnum & Mason picnic hamper, very cool personalised mugs and bottle for Braxton kindly sent to us by Ellie Ellie, an awesome personalised gifts company, and a…
Quinoa Crunch Bars
Remember ‘Crunch’ bars growing up? I think they were my favourite. Crunchy and chocolatey but not too rich – yum. So here I give you… the healthy version: Quinoa Crunch Bars. As long as you have a good food processor, these are easy to make. Quinoa is such an awesome source of plant-based protein, and…
Chocolate Truffle Hearts
There is nothing inside these chocolates that makes them ‘truffles’ necessarily, it’s just that the mixture is so decadent that when it sets thickly – as it does in the heart-shapes moulds I have because they’re so deep – it honestly tastes and feels like Belgian chocolate truffles melting into your mouth, and yet totally…
