Papaya contains an enzyme called papain which aids in the breakdown and digestion of tough proteins. Rich in vitamin C and vitamin A, this high antioxidant fruit is enjoyed throughout summer. Papaya does have a strong flavour and it is not enjoyed by everyone, however for those that do enjoy this fruit this simple quick recipe is tasty and refreshing.

Nothing beats a cold dessert on a hot evening and panna cotta has to be one of my favourites. This version is dairy free and low in sugar and still tastes great.

This makes a perfect breakfast on a cool morning that aids in reducing inflammation while providing a healthy balance of protein, complex carbs and healthy fats. Always best to soak your oats overnight to make them easier to digest.
