This vegetarian moroccan shepherds pie is a play on the traditional version. Here hearty green lentils become the backbone of a moroccan spiced braise that is nestled beneath sweet and earthy mashed sweet potato. Don’t be fooled by the vegetarian tag either. This dish is very filling and satisfying, and would keep any meat eater ...
One of the most recurrent health concerns in today’s busy world is fatigue. Too many of us are finding it increasingly difficult to have the energy to make it through the day.

This Vanilla Maple Granola is a tried and true recipe in not only my kitchen, but the kitchen of many clients. Once you have made this granola it becomes a must have staple, as you find yourself craving it first thing in the morning, or even crunching on it as that perfect afternoon snack. ...

The idea of this on the go bircher muesli is to create an easy weekday meal that can be portable if needed. There is of course the ‘ideal’ option of eating at home, but let’s face it, for many of us that simply isn’t going to happen. Big works days and morning work outs ...
This is my favourite version of salsa verde. Salsa verde is one of those accompaniments that you will find yourself adding to everything. The combination of fresh herbs with the acid of the vinegar and mustard work perfectly with so many dishes. This side dish gives punch to a wrap or salad, adds bite ...
