It’s hard finding things to eat for breakfast when you don’t eat gluten or dairy (or refined sugar), and tend to keep it plant-based. My dear friend Denise, yoga instructor and essential oils guru, gave me the idea for these and I put my own little spin on her wonderful original recipe, and it’s given…

Chai Spiced Granola
I’m such a granola fanatic. Can’t stop making it – all sorts of flavours! You can see all my granola recipes here. The most popular one is the probably the classic maple and pecan, but I’m hoping this Chai Spiced Granola makes it up there on your lists too, it’s just delicious! I love chai…

Summer Berry Smoothie
This is basically the same as the summer berry smoothie bowl but this is more of a smoothie than an ice cream. It is our go-to breakfast most mornings, for me and Braxton, I just spoon-feed it to him. When there are no berries we just use banana and the other ingredients and it’s a…
