Fudgy Protein Balls

I’ve just purchased inca inchi protein powder because with my gallbladder attacks of last year putting me off virtually all animal products (nothing like almost choking on chicken and mayo salad vomit to put you off meat, eggs and oil for a while) I’m in desperate need of vegan sources of “complete” protein. I tried adding it to my pumpkin “custard” last night and it wasn’t glorious.

Salted Macadamia and White Chocolate Butter

This divine butter can be made with or without the white chocolate twist. It’s simple but will have you making foodgasm noises left, right and centre. Serious “foodporn” in a jar.

Jaffa Swirl Loaf

This loaf was created in the spur of the moment. I was like “hey mum, I’m on holidays and you’re busy working. I have plenty of spare time and you’re almost out of date loaf … should I make something else?”.

Did I even need to ask? It’s Mamma T; either I make something from scratch or she eats gluten free marshmallows by the bag full!

Super-quick choc hazelnut cupcakes

These are similar to these cupcakes but with less sweetener so for those of you that like to keep sugars low, they are more of a “everyday”  cupcake recipe that can be whipped up at the beginning of the week for lunch boxes or as a easy-to-grab snack if you work from home (they’d even make a great breakfast on the go).

Phil-friendly Double Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

Regular readers will have no doubt heard read me mention my stepdad Phil a number of times. For the newbies, here’s the low-down. I love my Stepdad. A lot. When it comes to health we don’t always see eye to eye (and that’s putting it politely).

My Favourite Green Smoothie

I have updated this post (I am writing to you in June 2019 and the post was originally written in 2016). It was wordy. Yawn! This smoothie doesn’t need a rant. It just needs to be embraced.

An even tastier variation is available in my glorious paperback; Periods, Poo & A Glorious You but for now, the original base recipe will do just dandily.

Probiotic Power Choccie Smoothie

This Smoothie is made on a base of homemade Kultured Wellness coconut yoghurt. I am a sucker for shop bought coconut yoghurts, but it sure is cheaper to purchase the starter culture and make your own from scratch. Do I always make my own? No. Honestly, I still prefer the taste and consistency of a good Coyo (or equivalent), but when I’m feeling thrifty, the homemade variety does the job.

Jaffa Euphoria Balls

Do you ever set out to make a basic recipe, only to be overwhelmed by an intuitive plea to modify the recipe to such an extent that you manifest an entirely original product?

I was just going to do a basic date, cashew and cacao wafer bliss ball recipe, but then I saw all the other ingredients in the pantry and completely changed my mind.

Spectacular Soul Saturday: Kimi Hill

This week I’d like to share the insights of blogger Kimi Hill, author of www.sunandmoon.me. I don’t know Kimi personally, but she approached me after hearing my interview on Up for a Chat and asked me to do an interview for her website.

I decided to return the interview favour and here we are. Kimi is a driven young lady with a beautifully sensitive and creative streak.

Meet Kimi …
