That said, I could eat this Lightly Spiced Quinoa and Black-Eyed Bean Stew even on the hottest of days, especially if allowed to cool down … Continue reading Lightly Spiced Quinoa and Black-Eyed Bean Stew
The one thing that has been on me to-make list recently has been a sweet potato smoothie bowl, but then I thought “why is it taking me so long to make something so simple?” I always have sweet potatoes in the house, but perhaps I was holding out because I knew I would think of … Continue reading Cacao Squash Smoothie Bowl

Filled with lovely accents, friendly faces and the most delicious Welsh Cakes fresh from the bakery, my visit to Cardiff was everything I could have wished for, and more.

Now, while I still incorporate all factors into my day to day eating, I have … Continue reading Bacon Bits Tempeh Kale & Lentil Salad w/ a Creamy Turmeric dressing

This tastes like summer in a glass to me – light, refreshing and so juicy thanks to the abundance of berries. The coconut water makes the smoothie even fresher, while adding a bit more flavour and summery vibes. I love adding some baobab to morning smoothies as they add a real zing that really wakens … Continue reading A Refreshing Coconut Berry Smoothie
