Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
As much as I love my Grain-Free Bread, (it’s perfect for toast or sandwiches), sometimes I miss the fluffiness and doughiness of a yummy piece of Focaccia. I set about trying to create a recipe that would calm the craving and I think I got …
I’m off to Larnaca, Cyprus in a few days and thinking about the trip has got me all excited for Greek flavours. I love feta cheese and olives and all the grilled meats and can’t wait to make my way through all the mezze that …
Last night we were treated to dinner at the Admiral Codrington in Chelsea (or The Cod as it’s affectionately known). I’ve been to this gastro pub a few times before but only to drink, never for dinner. They have a cute little terrace to the …

Craving some greens and a fairly high protein meal after a workout at the gym tonight I settled on a Seared Tuna Nicoise Salad, complete with a gooey poached egg and topped with my homemade Rocket Pesto. To start with I steamed the asparagus (only …
I love the idea of meals that use one pot (less washing up) so today I decided to make a traybake for dinner. So easy, everything gets chopped up and layered in one dish and then put in the oven to bake. Loving my mediterranean …
