The summer heat is on in the Northern hemisphere and we've been keeping cool with some icy treats. So today, I thought I'd share my tips and tricks for creamy dreamy nice cream and smoothie pops and a recipe for Peanut Butter Banana & Jam Pops, kind of like the sandwich but frozen and without the bread.
Read MoreThis vegan oil free chocolate banana tahini cake is fluffy yet moist, and chocolaty with a subtle sweetness from the bananas and just a touch of maple syrup. It makes a perfect accompaniment to your choice of drink as an afternoon snack. I enjoy mine with my afternoon tea, a golden milk or matcha latte, while hubby enjoys his with coffee or capuccino and Amal likes hers with a cup of cold oat milk.
Read MoreThese healthy whole food parfaits are packed with the goodness of millet and fig and spiked with ginger, hazelnut butter and cinnamon for a flavour explosion in your mouth. Nutritious and satisfying enough for breakfast, yet decadent enough for dessert and light enough for a snack. What more could you ask for?

Read MoreThis super crispy chickpea cracker thin is one of our favourite things to whip up for snack times. It’s falvourful enough to eat alone thanks to the chickpea flour, which also makes it gluten free and whole food based.

Read MoreThese delicious rustic sesame oat crackers are a family favourite in our home. I make two batches every 2 or 3 days. We snack on them, eat them with dips, spreads, nut butters and jams and use them in place of bread to accompany soups and salads. They’re simple, vegan and gluten-free when made with certified gluten free oats. Best of all, they’re husband and kid friendly.
