Bitesized Grainfree Black Bean Brownies

Bitesized Grainfree Black Bean Brownies

Brownies – the ultimate in decadent treats!  Fudgy, gooey, squidgy bites of chocolatey deliciousness – can you tell I’m a fan?  I’ve made Grainfree Brownies previously using almond flour and coconut milk but there’s been a lot of hype recently about black bean brownies so 

Vegan Grainfree Truffle Risotto (Made with Cauliflower Rice!)

Vegan Grainfree Truffle Risotto (Made with Cauliflower Rice!)

Truffles – you either love them or you hate them.  I love them and think there are few things out there more decadent that the taste of those strange-looking little black fungi.  They make everything that bit more special, from pizzas to pasta to risotto.  

Grainfree Maple Walnut Banana Bread

Grainfree Maple Walnut Banana Bread

It’s been a long-standing joke that 2020 was the year of the banana bread. Being stuck at home, many people have turned to baking and banana bread is an obvious place to start for novice bakers.  It’s such an easy recipe to master and once 

Smoked Haddock Cauliflower Chowder (Cauliflower Cullen Skink)

Smoked Haddock Cauliflower Chowder (Cauliflower Cullen Skink)

Chowder is a thick soup, usually made with milk or cream that originates from New England in America.  Cullen Skink is the Scottish version but wherever it’s from, it’s always comforting and delicious.  Most smoked haddock chowder is usually made with potatoes, but as I 

Non-Alcoholic Spicy Ginger Switchel (Haymaker’s Punch)

Non-Alcoholic Spicy Ginger Switchel (Haymaker’s Punch)

If you’re off the alcohol for whatever reason, this drink is something delicious that really fills that Friday evening cocktail gap!  It’s an adult mocktail that isn’t full of refined sugar or tons of fruit juice like so many of the options out there.  I’ve 

Pomegranate Bellini

Pomegranate Bellini

I love a Champagne Cocktail and a Kir Royale or a Bellini are a couple of my favourites.  This Pomegranate Bellini is an inventive take on the usual Peach Bellini using Pomegranate Molasses instead of Peach Puree.  Perfect for winter or summer alike it’s sure 

Individual Grainfree Apple & Cinnamon Crumbles

Individual Grainfree Apple & Cinnamon Crumbles

I don’t normally make desserts as neither Dan nor I have a sweet tooth, but when we have guests over I make the extra effort – and if I’m making a dessert, I might as well make one that I can eat, right?  This time 

SCD Christmas Cake – Grainfree Glutenfree Fruit Cake

SCD Christmas Cake – Grainfree Glutenfree Fruit Cake

For me, the Christmas season always feels like it begins when I make the Christmas Cake. You have to make it in advance and ‘feed’ it (see further down for how to do this) with whisky until the big day so it’s best to start 

Refined Sugarfree Cranberry Sauce

Refined Sugarfree Cranberry Sauce

It just wouldn’t be Christmas or Thanksgiving without some cranberry sauce on your festive table to pair with that delicious turkey, would it?  Most cranberry sauce that you buy in a jar is full of sugar and so, because I can’t eat the white stuff, 

SCD Mincemeat – No added sugar

SCD Mincemeat – No added sugar

Some foods only come into their own at a certain Christmassy time of year.  Mulled Wine, Turkey and of course Mincemeat.  The Christmas season hasn’t really started until you’ve had your first Mince Pie of the year and that spicy, fruity flavour is so comforting 

Grainfree Fish Pie with Cauliflower Mash

Grainfree Fish Pie with Cauliflower Mash

I love Fish Pie! It’s one of those ultimate comfort foods but is usually off-limits for me as the sauce tends to be made with flour and the topping is usually mashed potato – two items that I can’t eat!  I created this Grainfree Fish 

Slow Cooked Lamb Shanks

Slow Cooked Lamb Shanks

Normally when I make a weeknight supper, I try and do something that I can pull together in 30 mins.  It means I can then walk home/go to the gym etc and we don’t end up eating too late.  This morning, however, I had some
