Mango Raspberry Smoothie

A super quick refreshing smoothie that is quick to make and antioxidant rich. Mangoes are a great source of vitamin C, A and E which is important for skin and eye health and boosting our immune systems.
Salted ‘Tahini’ Caramel Slice
Posted on November 16th, 2016
I really do enjoy raw slices, however I often find them too sweet and feel a little unwell after eating a piece at a café even though they state ‘refined sugar free’. Just because foods are made refined sugar free doesn’t mean that they are healthy, some sort of sugar still has been used regardless if it is more natural or not. I have made this version reasonably healthy for a treat, however it is still to be enjoyed in moderation like all things nice.
Herbed Eggplant Chickpea Dip
Posted on November 16th, 2016
Eggplant has to be one of my favourite vegetables, it is so versatile and its purple skin contains phytonutrients which are powerful antioxidants that help fight off free radicals and protect our cells from damage. Eggplant is able to take on-board many different flavours without being over powering and can easily be hidden into many recipes.
I really like eating hummus as a snack with vegetable sticks so I often play around with what else I can do to change it up.
