Love your skin! mango & coconut smoothie
***NEW SMOOTHIE ALERT!!!*** In celebration of the warmer months to come, I’ve got a brand new smoothie recipe for you. And, as always, it’s both delicious and good for you. We all know that sun-kissed skin looks gorgeous but UV rays also cause major damage – so although this smoothie will beautify from the inside-out, don’t … Continue reading
Immunity-boosting! breakfast juice
Feeling run down? Winter blues finally getting to you? My 6am wake-ups certainly are… Try starting your day with this zingy and refreshing 3-ingredient juice and you’ll be bright as a button again ready for those 9am meetings. Ish.

2-ingredient applesauce
It’s dark, foggy and very damp in London at the moment, and I am officially in full-blown, hood-up, tights-on, Autumn mode. And to harness all the beautiful produce knocking about at this time of year, I’ve been making industrial quantities of pumpkin and squash purée and applesauce, and stashing them in the depths of my … Continue reading
Vitamin E avocado & almond smoothie
This summer we holidayed in Morocco, splitting our time between Marrakesh and Essaouira. It’s always difficult to choose but they are two of my favourite places on Earth I think. Marrakesh is hot and dusty and a glorious assault on the senses. The souks are weaving and labyrinthine, leading you past glittering lamps and pointy … Continue reading
Miracle matcha & pineapple smoothie
Although we can all have too much of a good thing, matcha is definitely the new wonder child in my kitchen. It’s a form of Japanese green tea made from shade-grown green tea buds, stone-ground to a fine powder, and traditionally whisked into hot water. You can find it in specialist tea and health food … Continue reading
Sunshine anti-inflammatory smoothie
It’s been almost 10 months since I first started juicing and posted my Beginners’ Green Juice. I’ve plugged away at it all winter, playing around with exciting (and sometimes wacky) juice and smoothie variations (see here, here and here), and now that the warmer months are upon us, it’s time to celebrate with a brand new … Continue reading
Heart-healthy pecan, maple & pumpkin seed granola
Until recently I had always relied on shop-bought granola to satisfy my breakfasting needs but, although it’s marketed as a healthy choice (and boy do you pay for the privilege), it often contains a shed load of sugar and other nasties. On top of that, if you’re gluten-free or vegan, you always need to be … Continue reading
Stilton & caramelised onion muffins
If you’ve ever perused my blog (probably during your mid-afternoon slump at your desk, guiltily hoovering sub-par work biscuits whilst pretending to be engrossed in work – I’m not judging, we’ve all been there), you will know that I am a bit of a savoury muffin aficionado. I find they are in some ways the … Continue reading
Coconut choc chip cookies
Coconut-ty, chocolate-y and oat-y all at the same time, these beauties are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and bursting with shredded coconut and dark chocolate chips. Rather like a Bounty bar crossed with a macaroon in biscuit form! Perfect with your morning cuppa (they are breakfast compliant because of the oats, … Continue reading
