Quick Chickpea and Spinach Curry
I love curries of all varieties but chickpea is definitely one of my favourites. The little legumes seem to perfectly absorb the flavours of all the spices making each mouthful a taste sensation! Usually when I make curry, I prepare it in the slow cooker but since I only had half an hour to work with this time, this wasn’t an option! I thought making … Continue reading Quick Chickpea and Spinach Curry
Soya Free Chicken Fried Rice
Takeaways and restaurants are often tricky if you have allergies, and when it comes to soya sensitivity, the entire Chinese cuisine can pretty much be ruled out. This is such a shame as there are so many amazing dishes that I would love to introduce my son to. He’s a real foodie and would absolutely love the variety of flavours and taste sensations that Chinese … Continue reading Soya Free Chicken Fried Rice
Dairy Free Chocolate Crispy Cakes
Chocolate crispy cakes are a necessity for Easter and we try and make at least one batch every year. Even though they’re so simple to create, there are so many different recipes out there that it can be hard to choose. Golden syrup and cocoa, marshmallows, melted chocolate, which one do you like best? While we do love the variety made with real chocolate, when … Continue reading Dairy Free Chocolate Crispy Cakes
Chicken & New Potato Tray Bake
Like most areas of my life, my style (If you can call it that!) of cooking is very haphazard and erring on the side of laziness. I’m a big fan of one pot meals where you just chuck everything in and wait for the flavours to develop. They’re always big on taste and low on mess which ticks all my boxes. Usually I bring out … Continue reading Chicken & New Potato Tray Bake
Sugar-Free Banana & Date Flapjacks
Snacks are always in high demand in our house. After school in particular seems to require about 50 different edibles and dinner is still eaten with gusto. It can be hard to come up with a variety of healthy and free-from snacks, but these flapjacks are always a winner. The banana and dates offer more than enough sweetness so there’s no need for sugar or … Continue reading Sugar-Free Banana & Date Flapjacks

You can never go wrong with a chocolate dessert – a guaranteed people pleaser, they’re the ultimate way to end a meal.

I didn’t have much in the way of ingredients to hand but amazingly this tart is made using just … Continue reading Indulgent Dairy Free Chocolate Tart
Butterbean and Mint Houmous
We eat houmous with everything in our house and have tried all sorts of flavour combinations and add-ins. Butterbean and mint is one of our favourites though and is frequently requested when I make houmous from scratch instead of cheating with a supermarket pot. I could probably eat an entire bowful on its own, but tonight we served our houmous with vegetable burgers, Mediterranean vegetables … Continue reading Butterbean and Mint Houmous
Deliciously Dairy Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
You can’t beat a chocolate chip cookie, crunchy on the outside, chewy in the middle and with the perfect ratio of cookie to chocolate chip, they’re surely dessert perfection. I didn’t think it would be possible to create that perfect fudgy texture without egg but thankfully I was wrong and I’m so pleased with how these tasty treats turned out. The recipe is super simple … Continue reading Deliciously Dairy Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
Slow Cooker Vegetable Curry
There’s nothing better than coming home to the smell of dinner ready and waiting for you. This is why our slow cooker is hands down my favourite kitchen item. As if by magic, it can transform a handful of ingredients into a delicious dish, brimming with flavour and mouth-wateringly tender. One of the meals I make most in my slow cooker is curry. The hours … Continue reading Slow Cooker Vegetable Curry
