Hellooo, I hope everybody survived their first post-Christmas week of normality? I don’t think my body has quite adjusted to getting up early and not eating chocolate at regular intervals, but we’ll get there 😉 This is the first time I’ve featured pan fried venison (or any other kind of steak) on the blog, mainly because it is almost impossible to cook, plate and photograph Read Post
Garlic Kale with Crispy Bacon
I know what you’re thinking: “oh look, yet another ‘healthy’ January recipe”. But, look a little closer at this garlic kale and you’ll see that the recipe involves not only kale but super crispy bacon and a healthy dose of garlicky butter. It’s what I like to call ‘superfoods made good’ (see also: nutty avocado quinoa salad, kale cauliflower cheese). What I’m trying to say is, Read Post
Baked Salmon + White Wine Cream Sauce
Heeey, it’s been a while hasn’t it? Every time exams come rolling around I promise myself I’m going to be mega organised and have posts scheduled but I think it’s high time I accepted that I am just not that person. Soz guys. Anyway, time for food! This baked salmon recipe is one that I made as part of the Waitrose eating organic challenge so Read Post
Smoked Haddock Sweet Potato Hash
This, my friends, is the ultimate feel-good comfort food. Soft sweet potato, smoky haddock and an oozy egg for extra indulgence. This smoked haddock sweet potato hash ticks all the boxes: packed full of veg + protein to fuel your body, light yet filling and – most importantly – delicious! We absolutely devoured it (seriously, it was gone in about 5 minutes!) for dinner a Read Post
Banana Protein Breakfast Bowls
Oh look, another breakfast recipe! These peanut butter + banana protein breakfast bowls are a totally different type of breakfast to my last one (Chorizo Scrambled Eggs) so I reckon it’s allowed. When it comes to breakfast food I don’t discriminate. Sweet, savoury, sweet and savoury – I’ll take them all! I’ve always been a breakfast lover. I swear I can’t function until I’ve got a belly full of Read Post
Blue Cheese Walnut Salad
Happy Friday everyone! I’m currently en route to London for a weekend involving Taylor Swift and plenty of Prosecco so, needless to say, I’m in a pretty good mood! Today’s post is a little collaboration with Florette, who I’m sure you’ve all heard of. They offer a range of salads and have recently started selling smaller, single serve bags which is great if you’re the type Read Post
Spicy Kale Salad with Chicken + Garlic Croutons
Remember when I mentioned that I wanted to get excited about kale? I wasn’t even kidding! I promise I’m not about to turn into some kind of hipster health food blogger. I did just put gin in ice lollies and encourage triple chocolate cookie consumption, after all. But, I am currently experiencing unprecedented levels of excitement about leafy greens so that should tell you something. Let’s start Read Post
Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus + Poached Egg
I mentioned how excited I am about asparagus season a couple of posts ago whilst raving about this chopped chicken bacon salad. Well, asparagus season’s still here and I’m still excited! Mainly because I feel like I’ve discovered a food combination that was just meant to be in this prosciutto wrapped asparagus. FYI, food is about the only thing I’ll ever talk about being meant Read Post
Chopped Chicken Bacon Salad with Grilled Asparagus
After a couple of weeks of relying on chocolate and biscuits to relieve exam stress, I’m feeling like treating my body to some slightly more nutritious food. It’s also the start of asparagus season which makes me seriously H A P P Y. Every time I eat asparagus I remember how much I love it & wonder why I don’t eat well all the time. Then Read Post
Cherry Bakewell Overnight Oats
Guys, I’m about to ramble right at ya. About exam stress, technology meltdowns and also the beauty that is cherry bakewell overnight oats. You’ve been warned! Oh man, what a crazy few days it’s been! I’ve been buried deep in notes and calculations for the last couple of weeks so this little space hasn’t had much of a look in. Aaand then the night before my Read Post
