Growing and eating your own vegetables is such a rewarding thing. Whatever space you have, you can grow something, no matter how small it may be. It could be simple like some fresh herbs on a window sill or a tomato plant on a patio. Homegrown veg tastes so good, much better than shop bought…
go bananas
Banana bread – I love it. It’s that healthy sounding snack that’s oh so damn good with a ton of sugar in it or packed with chocolate chips, but c’mon, this is an AIP blog! This recipe does contain some coconut sugar and eggs, both of which I am not opposed to using every now…
(not) bread rolls
It’s September and Autumn is here! I’m still glad it’s a gorgeous sunny day here in London Town but let’s mark the start of the season with a hearty squash soup and some grain free rolls. Since my friend brought me over from the States some Otto’s Cassava flour – I’ve been in love. I…
avacado cacao mousse
This is a dreamy chocolatey desert. If you’re avocados are at perfect ripeness and tasty too then blend them up with a little cacao, some coconut milk, some honey, and BOOM! There are a various variations of this recipe on the internet – have a google, have a play, add a banana, use maple syrup…
beet dis
Pickled beets. I love them! After discovering in M&S, their new horseradish rosebud beetroots – I had to try and make my own as theirs has sugar in them – although I figure a bit of sugar in the beetroot vinegar is better than a mars bar right?! Pickling beetroot is so easy and you can…
raw butternut squash cookies
A friend lent me a dehydrator. They were probably glad to make some space in their kitchen as the thing is huge, but I wanted to give it a go as many people rave about theirs. In the UK they are not that popular, probably as our houses are so much smaller and we have…
nice as pie
Last week I had a great moment – I bought a chicken, had Sunday roast, a chicken salad for lunch, then I made bone broth and then with the leftover chicken that had fallen off the bone, I made chicken and leek pies! As a former veggie I felt I had done the chicken a…
happy fritter day
I will resist the pancake – although the paleo mom has a great recipe for plantain pancakes which I like, but today I tried her plantain and apple fritters which I LOVE! So easy to make too – mash a couple of ripe plantains (riper the better) add a grated apple into the mix with…
sweet thang
So everyone spirallizing is causing a courgette crisis – yikes! But I think squash stocks are safe. All supermarkets are selling premade courgetti along with squash spaghetti and lasagne sheets. Well I was excited to see this latest addition, squash WAFFLES, in my local Sainsbury’s. Bung them in the oven, cook up some pancetta and…
streaky fish n chips
Sometimes just a simple piece of fish makes for a great dinner. Try wrapping streaky bacon around some smoked haddock or cod. Bake in the oven for around twenty minutes at 180 degrees. Goes great with sweet potato chips and greens.
sweet potato toast
Autumn is here which means I am very happy surrounded by a variety of squash freshly delivered from Riverford Organic Farmers. It may be sunny out but it’s getting colder which means soups can replace salads for lunch and with the discovery of sweet potato toast recently, I no longer have to miss that chunk of…
liver. yes liver.
Liver, it’s good for you. Try to eat some. First fry up a couple of rashers of bacon till its crispy. Then remove to a plate with kitchen towel on it. In the bacon fat, fry up one or two onions over a gentle heat, then add a couple of cloves of chopped garlic and…
