There is a first time for everything and this past week I tried purple sweet potato for the first time. If you have read my previous posts you’ll be well aware of my love affair with sweet potato. I love making desserts with it and so you can imagine my excitement when I tasted a…
One of the things I loved the most about my childhood was cereal. And no, I did not get the special spike-your-blood-sugar-then-crash-before-midmorning sugary kind of cereal. Although my sister and I fought hard in an attempt to convince my mom it was the healthier, more nutritious option. All the other kids at school got that…
Growing up, fish fingers were the go-to lazy lunch on the weekend or when mum wasn’t home to cook dinner. They were so delicious despite being minimally nutritious. There was something about the crispy exterior and tender interior that kept me going back for more. Now all these years later, I still crave that contrast…
Cauliflower is amazing. I am always looking for new ways to use this incredible vegetable. Did you know that it is one of the healthiest foods around? Good ‘ol cauliflower, what a champ. It is known as a cruciferous vegetable amongst others like kale, broccoli and cabbage. These vegetables are cancer fighting so let’s get…
As a millennial, I am embarrassed to say that I didn’t watch Gilmore Girls growing up. I saw a couple episodes here and there by mistake or when nothing else was on but I was definitely not as devoted as my peers. Fast forward 10 years and I am on that train like no other!!…

These delightful treats take me back to my childhood. There is something about the texture and flavor that reminds me of fridge cake. Did you ever make these as a kid? It was literally the only thing I could ‘bake’ successfully during primary school. And it didn’t involve an oven so my Mum was chilled…
By the end of the week I am always so ready for the weekend. Not to sleep in late or watch more t.v. or relax like a normal person. Nope. I am ready to experiment in the kitchen! I tend to conveniently crave yummy sweet treats on the weekend and so I get all that…
Moment of truth – I eat A LOT of sweet potatoes. Actually chicken and sweet potatoes ERR’DAY. My Mum even asked me the other day after reading my recipes if all I eat is chicken. I was like “Nooo, I also eat sweet potatoes!”. I felt slightly pressured that I wasn’t “branching out” enough. And…
This Banana Walnut cake is a must!! With no refined sugar, no grains and so much goodness it would be crazy for you not to try! This recipe combines desiccated coconut and almond and tapioca flour which makes for a wonderfully light and fluffy cake. I often find paleo cakes to be quite dense, but…
