Roasted chickpeas: an easy and nutritious snack

I made a batch of roasted chickpeas last week and many people asked me for the recipe when I put in my Instagram stories so I thought I’d share it on here too. It couldn’t be simpler to make roasted chickpeas because all you need are store cupboard ingredients. That means you can whip up […]

Chocolate flapjacks

As promised, here’s the recipe of the chocolate flapjacks I put up on Instagram the other day. They were inspired from a paleo recipe I saw somewhere and which over the years I adapted. I’ve used other dried fruit, sometimes added seeds but somehow always kept the chocolate; funny that… White chocolate works as well […]

Almond, cherry and orange energy balls

I’ve been making these almond, cherry and orange energy balls for years and many of my clients like them. I love that they are so easy to prepare and keep well in the fridge. Almonds and cherry go well together, don’t they? These energy balls are effectively like mini cherry bakewell bites… Why I love […]

Peanut and cocoa energy bars

These peanut and cocoa energy bars taste like they are good for you but in a good way. I don’t like labelling food as “good” or “bad” but people do, don’t they? And when people say that something tastes like it’s good for you, they generally mean that it tastes a bit like horse fodder. […]

Cranberry and coconut flapjacks

My kids love those cranberry and coconut flapjacks. To be fair my kids and, come to think of it, my husband love most flapjacks. I think it must be a culturally kiddy thing, I mean I don’t recall having ever eaten flapjacks while growing up in France; too busy eating pains au chocolat I guess… […]

Oat and berry pancakes: nutritiously tasty

Who doesn’t like pancakes for breakfast? The American are the kings of fluffy pancakes, they just have this tendency to drown them in maple syrup, which makes them a little bit less attractive from a nutrition standpoint. The health conscious amongst you will have noticed that and that’s why the web is now awash with […]

Vietnamese Spring rolls: a nutritious and vibrant lunch

These Vietnamese spring rolls will forever remind me of my childhood. Despite the fact that I grew up in deep dark Brittany, my culinary influences have stretched much further since I come from a very multicultural family. My mum came from the Germanic border, I had one German uncle, an aunt who had been well […]

Beetroot wraps

Those beetroot wraps were a real hit on my Insta feed so I had to put the recipe on here! The slight problem is that I did my classic freestyling when I just go (in my head) “that’s so simple I’m totally going to remember this and in any even I’ll post it right up on my […]

Breakfast pizzas

Breakfast pizzas: I like breakfast and I like pizzas so it was only a matter of time before I was to combine them I suppose… I’ve come to the conclusion that what I like the most about pizzas is eating them with my hands, there’s something quite childish and quite tactile that I really like. […]

High protein yoghurt cakes

I used to called these “breakfast cheesecakes” but I don’t like the name anymore. Firstly, I don’t tend to eat them for breakfast only (although you could) and secondly, it gives the impression that these are “healthy” mini cheesecakes. In fact, it gives the impression  that they are so healthy you could have them for […]
