Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
Smoked Mackerel Paté reminds me of days spent down at our beach hut in Frinton-on-Sea. A huge fish platter for lunch, with giant prawns, crab, hot smoked salmon, lobster, all served with a big bowl of Hollandaise Sauce (and washed down with a glass of …
I’m not quite ready to let go of all the summer flavours yet, especially all those delicious Mediterranean ones. I was craving something filling but light, and so I settled on a frittata! The eggs in a frittata make it protein-heavy, so it always fills …
I never really had a sweet tooth until I got pregnant, and both times it ended up being what I craved throughout the pregnancy (and the craving didn’t go away afterwards). I used to be a ‘cheese and crackers’ as a snack girl but these …

Nothing quite says Christmas like a mince pie – it really feels like the festive season has started when you get your first taste of that sweet, spiced fruit flavour! It evokes such a festive feeling – we always have a mince pie and a …
Sloe Gin is one of those quintessential British drinks that you don’t really seem to find anywhere else in the world. For me, it brings back memories of wintery walks in the forest with a nip of Sloe Gin from a hip flask but these …

Easter is around the corner and the shops are full of chocolate eggs, bunnies and hot cross buns. It’s a sugar-overload everywhere you look! So what can you treat yourself with at Easter if you can’t tolerate refined-sugars? Look no further as I have some …
