I recently became that woman who looks like an idiot walking in high heels. The one I usually roll my eyes at while muttering under my breath about how people really should learn to walk in heels, or alter their footwear choices. But I used to wear towering shoes of every description, so how ever did this happen?! Well it turns out that walking in heels is not at all like riding a bike. Huh. You see, back in my corporate days, heels were a regular part of my wardrobe. There is, even … [Read more...]
Healthier Pecan Pie
Well now, isn't that a terribly mundane name for a stunningly good pie. Perhaps I could have gone with something more descriptive like Dairy-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Pecan Pie, but I feel that it's really just a longer and equally mundane name for a remarkable dessert. So remarkable in fact, I had to make a video -- but we'll get to that in a moment. Maybe I should have named it something more screechy and celebratory -- The Best Pecan Pie Ever!!!! Life-Changing Pecan Pie!!! OMG … [Read more...]
Vegan Spelt Pie Crust
Five years ago (good lord where does the time go) I posted a recipe for Whole Spelt Pie Crust. After making said crust for every year since I figured it was high time for a bit of an update. Over time, I've worked out that coconut oil is better for this crust when it's a touch firmer, so there's a bit of extra detail about how to get it right when it's hot in your kitchen. I've found adding some extra water is better too -- and I've refined the refrigerate and roll times because … [Read more...]
Carrot & Zucchini Muesli Bowl
I started you off slowly with rainbow purees in porridge then moved on to a green as it gets smoothie with sweet, sweet potato gems but now it's time to go straight from the crisper to the table -- are you ready? There's almost no prep required for the veg in this bowl meaning you're up and out in no time at all. Now you may get a few side-glances from partners or workmates but feel free to give them a smug smile and continue eating your breakfast in peace. Confidence is a terribly … [Read more...]
Green Smoothie, Sweet Potato & Granola Bowl
Green Smoothie bowls are a regular visitor to my breakfast table (who am I kidding, there is no table in this equation, I eat breakfast standing up in the kitchen as I prep for shoots, or sitting at my desk while editing photos... but that's another story altogether). Not only do I quite enjoy them but they're a great way to get a huge quantity of veg into the start of the day -- and eating a green smoothie with a spoon instead of drinking it from a glass serves a dual purpose. If the … [Read more...]
Rainbow Pumpkin & Beetroot Oatmeal Bowl
The other day I gave you all sorts of ways to add veggies to your breakfast bowl, now it's time to put some of those ideas into action. I'm a big believer that rainbows always win and breakfast bowls are no different. Bright swirls of pumpkin and beetroot puree pack a veggie punch, while kiwi and blueberries add a colourful tang. You could certainly apply these topping combos to a bowl of yoghurt and muesli, or even flakes if that's your thing, but oatmeal porridge is my go-to more … [Read more...]
A Dozen Ways to Add Veggies to Your Breakfast Bowl
Who knew adding veggies to your breakfast bowl could be such a shocking (SHOCKING!) idea? Apparently the concept is confronting and unusual and unexpected, yet -- as someone who adds veggies to porridge more days than not -- I find the reaction to the idea as shocking and unexpected as the idea itself. It is however all a matter of packaging (isn't everything?). I recently shot some photos and videos for the #mybrekkiebowl campaign, and as part of the press release I was quoted … [Read more...]
