A delicious refreshing slushy drink that is wonderful on its own or, if you are so inclined, add a shot of gin or a splash of coconut rum to turn it into a cocktail. I like mine without, so it’s a mocktail! I keep a pitcher in the fridge and it’s such a welcome drink – tastes like a decadent treat when it’s really low calorie and the ingredients pack such powerful nutritional goodness so healthy for us! Make up a pitcher and enjoy!

Read MoreHomemade sauces, like my hoisin sauce recipe, are quick and easy to make and add more nutrition to your meal.

Read MoreQuinoa! For those unfamiliar with this wonderful food, quinoa is an ancient food – cultivated by the Incas in the Andes for thousands of years. Some love it and for those who aren’t fans of it, I’m sure it’s because it hasn’t been cooked properly when you had it!
Read MoreMaking your own salad dressings is so easy! This is one of my favourites – it can be a salad dressing or a sauce that you can use in fajitas, with cooked meat, with cubed pan roasted tempeh cubes, roasted veggies, boiled potatoes, over a half avocado, a drizzle over sliced hardboiled eggs… It’s really good!!
