Butternut Squash & Chickpea Curry

Butternut Squash and Chickpea Curry

February 5, 2016 by Elizabeth Atia

A Redmond Multicooker recipe – only 225 calories per serving! I love a good curry, me. I’ve been making variations of this particular curry recipe for some time now – it began with using sweet potato and adding handfuls of kale or spinach at the end, but, like many people, I’ve been on a sensible …

Chunky Vegetable Soup with Spinach Cashew Pesto

Chunky Vegetable Soup with Spinach-Cashew Pesto

February 2, 2015 by Elizabeth Atia

aka: what to do with all those ignored vegetables at the bottom of the fridge! Let’s talk Lego! My husband, bless his cotton socks, doesn’t do a lot of cooking. He can peer into a full refrigerator and not come up with a single idea for dinner. Shelves of vibrant vegetables get ignored in favour …

Skinny celeriac and apple soup

Skinny Creamy Celeriac & Apple Soup

January 12, 2015 by Elizabeth Atia

All the flavour and nearly half the calories! I love a hearty, creamy bowl of soup, me. Especially when the winds are howling outside and you want something warm and comforting. Alas, most creamy soup recipes use a ridiculous amount of double cream – something I just can’t afford to eat right now while I’m trying …

Chocolate Covered Peanut Protein Bars {vegan}

January 8, 2015 by Elizabeth Atia

100% plant power! I absolutely love weight lifting. Lifting heavy weights is not something I ever thought would interest me when I was younger, when my active trim self never had to pass a moment’s thought about the food I put into my mouth. I stayed slim naturally. Age, growing three babies, laziness and a …

Slow Roasted Tomato & Garlic Soup {vegan}

January 6, 2015 by Elizabeth Atia

Packed with the flavour of lycopene rich tomatoes and slow roasted garlic.   Nothing beats the humble tomato. Packed full of lycopene, its antioxidant properties and health benefits are well documented. Plus, a bowl of steaming hot tomato soup is the perfect comfort food, wouldn’t you agree? Especially when accompanied by a gorgeous, oozing, freshly made …

Curried Neep and Carrot Soup

Curried Neep & Carrot Soup

November 5, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

Remember, remember the 5th of November. I may lament about the scaled down UK Halloween and lack of trick or treaters (we only had two this year – they left with loads of sweeties) compared to my rural Canadian upbringing, but do you know what? Bonfire night totally makes up for it. I hadn’t even …

Strawberry Vanilla Bean Coconut Ice Cream

September 27, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

A vegan, all natural, refined sugar free frozen dessert. My ice cream machine died last year. It was a gruesome, horrible death with a cracked bowl and bright blue coolant oozing all over the contents of my freezer. This was the second time this happened (same model) and I haven’t replaced it yet. I’ve had …

Carrot & Cumin Soup

September 13, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

ideal for sipping from a tin cup on the rocky sea shore Hot soup sipped from a tin cup while sitting on the rocky shore watching the waves dance. What can be better than that? There are nine years between my eldest child and my youngest. This means it can be difficult to find something …

August 17, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

My lunch. Today. Yum. This was so nice I was really excited to share it with you all as soon as possible. The combination of avocado and strawberry is really something extraordinary, and when you pair those flavours and textures with balsamic vinegar and black pepper – wow. Just… wow.

Vegan Blackcurrant Ripple Ice Cream

August 5, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

My electric ice cream machine died last year. It was a gruesome death, with it’s bright blue coolant slowly leaking out all over the contents of my deep freeze. This was the second time this ice cream maker death occurred in my freezer. The first time it happened the company replaced the bowl free of …
