Vegan Lunch Recipe
So this vegan lunch recipe is one of my own creations. I don’t make it that often because it uses way more than one or two pots. But if you want to put the effort it, I can assure you, it is totally worth it. It is so tasty! There aren’t that many things I […]
Read articleCorn and Courgette Cakes
Time is the biggest killer of my love for cooking and trying new recipes. If I had it all my way I would experimenting and trying new foods all the time, unfortunately I don’t prioritise this as highly as I should. I still manage to eat relatively well, but it usually easy meals such as […]
Read articleWhen the Fodmap Vegan met the Buddha Bowl!
I currently follow so many fodmap and vegans on instagram, whose food is so beautifully presented, that I spend a lot of my time hungry!

Read articleAubergine, Spinach & Lentil Bolognese Recipe
I’ve got to say a massive thank you Jo Stepaniak (low-Fodmap and Vegan) for this lentil bolognese recipe! Whilst I’m currently finding it hard to recognise anything tomato and aubergine based as not being a form of Ratatouille; I had to give this Aubergine, Spinach and Lentil Bolognese recipe a go because it doesn’t contain courgette or […]
Read articleHealthy Nut And Seed Bar Recipe
I made this healthy nut and seed bar recipe for our recent boot camp. They are full of good fats, slow release energy and high in protein. I love using them when I’m on my long 2-3 hour bike rides as they give me the right balance of energy to keep going and protein whilst […]

Read articleWhat Do I Eat? The Food Diary of A Personal Trainer
It used to be the case that I got asked on a regular basis where I got my protein from, but not any more. These days I find that people are actually interested in what a personal trainers daily diet looks like. I guess we are always advising people on their diets so it’s only right […]
Read articleLook At My Plums! Plum Flapjack Recipe
I realise of course that my food blogs make it sound like I have a garden full of fruit and vegetables – which honestly isn’t true. The back garden has some remaining rhubarb and raspberries, dying courgettes in far too small pots and a chill plant sprouting the biggest chillis I’ve ever seen! In the […]
