Recipe

Serve this dish with fresh, crispy leafy greens for further nourishment.

For those who need a sweet snack and a little pick-me-up coffee hit.

Who knew a savoury flan is actually very similar to a crustless quiche? This version has all the good things in it — spinach, bacon, cheese and onion — but you can mix and match your own fillings to taste. Adding a touch of flour to the mixture creates a light crust. Perfect for lunch prep or a light dinner.

An easy-to-make, spicy, nutty version of a flan.

Coconut & Berry Flan with Hemp Almond Crust. Creamy coconut filling, mixed berries, and a nutty crust. Refreshing and indulgent.

These crackers are super simple, crunchy, and very very moreish. Perfect for popping in lunchboxes or for snacking in the afternoon.

Freezing fruit is a brilliant way to ensure you always have smoothie ingredients on hand and it’s an economical habit too. If you ever see fresh produce at a ridiculously low price, don’t wait until next week. Buy up big and store it in the freezer. Frozen fruit can also be combined with smaller amounts of liquid to make a delectable ice cream substitute.

This protein-rich porridge is full of ancient grains to add extra nutrition to your morning porridge. Don’t forget to soak the grains overnight to give them a softer texture prior to cooking the next day.

Quinoa is one of the most popular ancient grains for good reason. It’s easy to cook, rich in plant-based protein and high in antioxidants including quercetin and kaempferol. This quinoa and pomegranate salad is the perfect accomplice for seafood or another protein. I like using garlic and ginger for an extra flavour punch in the marinade, but it’s equally delicious without it.

This was one of my very first recipes, created from a combination of a beetroot “risotto” in a cookbook and my favourite dish at a cafe. The sweet earthiness of the beetroot combines perfectly with the peppery rocket and salty feta. This dish is hearty enough to eat as a main dish but also makes a fabulous side, especially with lamb.

You will be in taste heaven with this spread! The falafel mixture freezes brilliantly for about a month — don’t cook it.

Perfect for the colder months, this Hearty Kale & Potato Soup. Garnish with mixed sprouts, sliced chilli, crispy kale and spring onions.
