Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
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 …
One of my favourite lunches is soup, and soup is usually served with a nice crusty bread roll. I love some kind of bread with my soup and sliced bread doesn’t always do it. Sometimes you want something you can rip a chunk off, slather …
Easter is nearly here and nothing screams Easter more than Hot Cross Buns. That sweet, cinnamon and fruit flavour reminds me of Easter afternoons in front of the fire and I love a toasted Hot Cross Bun with lashings of melted butter. I knew I …
It’s Shrove Tuesday soon and it wouldn’t be Pancake Day without Pancakes for dessert! Every Pancake Day my mum used to make us lemon and sugar-filled crepes (I think my record might even have been 6! once) but these days my diet has changed and …
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 …

Sunday Brunch is an institution in our house! Whether it’s a fancy restaurant with friends for a Champagne Brunch or a relaxed brunch at home, we always try to make it a bit special. It’s not just the meal to replace breakfast and lunch, it …
Sunday always calls for brunch in our house and one of my favourites is Eggs Benedict. There’s something about the Hollandaise Sauce that makes it feel really decadent and it’s even better when you make your own from scratch (avoiding all the thickeners and additives …
Rhubarb is such an autumnal fruit (or is it a vegetable)? It reminds me of roast dinners followed by mum’s homemade rhubarb crumble and custard. The rhubarb was always picked from the garden and tasted incredible. That combination of sour tartness and the sweet crispy crunchy …
Tonight I was in the mood for eggs and we settled on a kind of ‘breakfast for dinner’ type dish. If you like this kind of idea then my Shakshuka (Moroccan Baked Eggs) is also a great breakfast recipe that I often eat in the …
