Squash, Spinach and Chickpea Curry
This is a delicious vegetarian/ vegan curry. It’s very filling and has a really rich flavour thanks to the thick curry paste that is the base for the sauce. It’s also very economical which is always a bonus. Serves…
Wild Garlic Pesto
There’s such an abundance of wild garlic around at the moment, it’s lovely to see it and it also makes a great free addition to spring meals in the form of pesto. Easy to make from store cupboard ingredients,…
No Refined Sugar Cashew and Cacao Energy Balls
I’ve based this recipe on a paleo bar that I picked up at a supermarket checkout a few weeks back. The price tag alone made me decide to make my own version and these are the result. They…
