I’ve been experimenting with Carob lately, and really liking the results. My first creation, Carob Bark is one of my favourite after-dinner treats at the moment, but these Carob Fudge Bliss Balls are right up there too! They really do have that fudgy texture, and for me, I love having the buttons in there for a slight ‘crunch’ factor. Carob … Read More

Paleo Sausage Rolls
I find making my own pastry time consuming and and pretty ‘hit-n-miss’. Pretty much all pastry also needs egg which doesn’t agree with me. Plus I’m all about whole foods where possible. So, getting creative in the kitchen, I just put together this quick and easy 2-minute paleo sausage roll the other week and it turned out pretty good! All … Read More
Low FODMAP Nori Roll – Paleo
Did you know that seaweed is a fabulous source of iodine? Usually only found in seafoods, it is essential for the functioning of our thyroid and deficiency can cause cretinism and other neural disorders.

Carob Bark
I’ve been experimenting with Carob lately, and really liking the results like this Carob Bark and my Carob Fudge Bliss Balls coming in a few weeks! Carob powder, like cacao powder is a dark brown in colour and it’s often used in similar sorts of recipes. However it has a very different flavour. Carob is actually naturally quite sweet and … Read More

Whip up this 4-ingredient satay sauce whenever you’re in a hurry and need something tasty for your dinner or to impress guests! It’s a very versatile sauce – I use it as you would any satay sauce; in a chicken dish, but it’s also nice to marinade some salmon or chicken drumsticks before grilling.

Crispy Sardine Sprats
Sardines are extremely nutritious. They’re packed with long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, protein, iron, zinc and many other minerals. They’re also a more sustainable seafood as they’re much lower down on the food chain. They are, however, not always the most tasty food! This recipe is a different take on sardines that (at least for me) makes them way more … Read More
Choc-Chilli-Chai
There are so many different ‘lattes’ blends on the market these days – turmeric, chai, hot chocolate, gingerbread, even beetroot lattes (yes, they’re bright pink)! But no Choc Chilli Chai… One of the perks of working in a health food store with a cafe is that I get to experiment with all these different flavours! I’ve always really enjoyed dark … Read More
