Read more "Super antioxidant green smoothie!"I love falafel but on my present ‘no legumes’ regime I’ve missed them, so here’s my take on a paleo, gluten, grain and legume-free version with lots of veggie, nut and seed goodness! I have to say the texture is really good, very reminiscent of chick peas, and the flavour is….well, falafel-like! Serves 4-5 Ingredients […]
Read more "Baked Autumn Squash Falafel"Well….thought I’d better keep you all up to date!

If you’ve read my blog from the beginning you’ll know I talked about being ‘well, wholly well’ and I’ve written about finding OHC 18 months ago, and then the last couple of weeks things have gone a bit quiet-just a few recipes! I’ve […]

Read more "Raisin Bread"Double bonus this week-two recipes! Sorry for the break in transmission, I was battling with a bug and being challenged with memories of CFS. You will hear more in due course, no doubt! Meanwhile I came across a couple of recipes for slow cooker breakfast casserole and couldn’t resist trying my version. It seemed to go […]
