Carrot Cake with Cashew Frosting
My homeschooling mama friend, Emily, made this for when we went round to her house for a playdate, and I fell in love! It is beyond good. Emily has made it several times since, and so have I. Me being me, I have of course edited the original recipe which came from the Unconventional Baker, and this is what I share with you today.
The Changing Colours of our Moon Cycle
When I started to connect with my cycle being linked to the moon cycle, I gained a deeper connection to myself as a woman, physically and energetically.
Navigating our way into homeschooling
From September 2020 we took the decision to remove our children from Steiner Schooling and to embrace home schooling as a family. Here I share my insights on how to get started including links to some of the home schooling resources that we use.
Mint Choc Chip Green Smoothie
This vegan mint choc chip green smoothie is super easy to make and really hits the spot. It’s particularly good for breakfast but it is delicious at any time of the day. It is your healthy alternative to mint choc chip ice cream - you’re welcome!
Homemade, Veg Packed, Tomato Sauce
It is so wonderful to be able to make something simple, that packs in the veggies, and that everyone in the family loves.
What is also wonderful about this recipe is that it makes enough to freeze. Win, win on every count!
Fudgey Chocolate Courgette Cake
The ever evolving cake!
This recipe took several attempts to perfect, inspired by a recipe my good friend Tamsin gave me, but quite far removed from the original, as I love to play with recipes to make them my own.
This is a firm favourite amongst friends and family, and I challenge anyone to not enjoy it, even if they are not vegan or gluten free!
Chaga Cacao Latte
Chaga is a medicinal mushroom. I know, I know…mushroom latte!? I promise you it is delicious though…earthy but deliciously so! If you haven’t started including Chaga into your daily routine yet, here are a few reasons why you might decide to:
Gingerbread Cookies
Everything ginger please! I love everything about it: what it does for our bodies, how it smells, how it tastes. I am lucky in that all of my family share the same love.
Raw Peppermint Creams
Back at the time of coming up with this recipe, I has recently run a class in my mother-in-law’s garden, looking specifically at the Flower, Grass and Herb oils for health and beautifying. It was such a lovely class – all of us had such a truly nurturing time in one another’s company. I made lavender lemonade, geranium, orange & rose raw chocolate slab, and these peppermint creams.
Blueberry Tahini Smoothie
This smoothie is SO good. I am in love with tahini anyway…I could have it in anything, and it is a really good source of plant based calcium.
Do you go nuts for granola!?
Oh how I love granola! Crunchy, yet chewy goodness, for what is quite frankly my favourite meal of the day…breakfast! I also love chocolate in all its antioxidant rich, nutrient dense glory, so chocolate granola…win win!
Women’s Wisdom Chocolate Delight
I came up with this recipe in 2015, for the first weekend in my training to become a Moon Mother. This weekend marked the beginning of my work in Female Energy Awakening.
Millionaire's Tahini fudge recipe
Over the past couple of years I have had the pleasure of getting to know a very inspiring yoga teacher: Charlie Anderson. Charlie has taken part in many of my cleanses (which is a total honour for me), and the other day she emailed me to let me know she had made a combination of 2 of my cleanse recipes and shared it with her yoga students. They all wanted the recipe, so I said I would type it up in a blog post to share with all of you,
Lentil Bolognese
This family favourite features brown lentils and is a perfect winter warmer or summer evening meal
Supercharged Breakfast
Enjoy knowing you are nourishing your body with an incredible amount of goodness and health…wow what a start to the day! Combined with a green smoothie you will be skipping around all morning and glowing like never before.
Zesty Avocado Mousse
I like this super quick avocado mousse recipe for breakfast…with all the healthy fats, fibre and protein, it keeps me going until lunch, especially if paired with a delicious green smoothie!
