Roast Cumin Carrots
Carrots are a great source of vitamin A, K, calcium and fibre so good for your eyes, bones and also digestion. These roast carrots are tossed in a coriander and cumin gremolata, on a bed of feta whip, topped with tahini sauce and pomegranate.
Pecan Pumpkin Pie
If you’ve got an autumn gathering coming up, this Pumpkin Pie with Pecan Praline & Chantilly Cream is definitely the pudding to make or take. Pumpkin is a good source of fibre!
Chocolate Orange & Cardamom Cake
Please try this because it’s crazy good! I’m not exaggerating to say this is one of best cake recipes I’ve ever tasted. Gently spiced with cardamom, which aids digestion and balances blood sugar.
Loganberry Ripple Gelato
This loganberry ripple gelato is both sweet, creamy and sour at the same time. Made with Loganberries grown by my neighbour (a hybrid soft fruit of raspberries and blackberries).
Lemon & Raspberry Scones
I was up early today and greeted by sunshine, having a wander in the village I bought some lemons and fresh raspberries and made this scone wheel for breakfast.
Japanese Cheesecake
I’m not going to claim any great nutritional benefit to this fluffy Japanese cheesecake other than as food for the soul! But I did work hard to adapt recipes to keep this as light as possible.
Fig & Ricotta Cake
This truly delicious autumn cake is full of sticky fresh figs and creamy ricotta. It’s a very sophisticated slice of stodge that could be served equally at a dinner gathering as wrapped in a paper bag for your next autumn 🍂 walk.
Lime & Coconut Gelato
Here it is, my first ever homemade gelato! It’s delicious yet low fat. I started out looking at many recipes and methods for making ice cream, gelato and frozen yoghurt. I’m sure I will try many variations through the summer, including those made with beans - maybe!
