I don’t know about you, but I struggle for breakfast ideas. Moving into perimenopause and learning about nutrition in these years (40+) a higher protein breakfast is suggested. Eggs if you like them are the perfect breakfast. Unfortunately for me, I don’t like eggs, so I need to find a way to get them in […]

Spring is sneaking in and Tomato Toast is on the menu
Tomato Toast Fiber Points 9+ I love this recipe; it’s so simple, and you can add various herbs and seeds to boost the diversity of something so simple. Sourdough bread (to get the fiber points) or a nice bloomer. You want bread that has a good surface area when you slice it. If you are […]
Saturday Kitchen – It’s still soup season!!
February is technically still winter, even though new life is peaking through in the allotment/garden/park! Soup season is still with us. Now, I know I have shared this recipe with you before… BUT it’s delicious, and I know many of you tried it out (because you messaged me to tell me)… And some people here […]
Easy Laksa Curry
Along with Indian food, Thai is up there with my favourites. It’s always full of flavour and tastes fresh and healthy! This is an easy recipe for making veggie or adding chicken, prawns or tofu if you wish. As with all the recipes I share, the more variety of veg you use, the more fiber […]
The ultimate comfort food
What is your ultimate comfort food? My absolute comfort food is macaroni cheese, chips AND garlic bread! BUT… fiber points = pretty much zero, unless I went to the bother of making the vegan version, but that just doesn’t cut it. For my new subscribers, just to update you on what the fiber points thing […]

Saturday Kitchen – Thai Green Curry
It might not seem very festive, but curries are great for this time of year to increase your fibre, warm you up and easy to make. This is a chop, drop into the slow cooker, and then eat. Thai Green Curry Fiber Points 9+ 3 peppers (1 red, 1 yellow, 1 green or […]
Saturday Kitchen, Spicy Chickpeas
I have no image for this week’s recipe (without stealing one off the internet), so you will have to use your imagination!! I never use canned chickpeas, just because of the flavour of them. So, a bit of forward planning is essential if you are using dried chickpeas. And I would always recommend bulk preparation […]
Spicy Fermented Sprouts
I didn’t think I liked sprouts… to be honest, I had only tried them once and didn’t have a positive or negative reaction to them. My good friend Janice (of Nourished by Nature) said that at Christmas time, she made a spicy sprout ferment… I was inspired, so I gave it a go myself. I […]
Porridge… How do you take yours? Sweet, salty… or both??
Porridge… I think the sweet or salty, milk or water debate can be as divisive as pineapple on a pizza (it’s a solid yes for me!) How do you like your porridge? What are your rules? Me, I like both… sweet and salty in the same bowl… just like popcorn… yes you can mix it […]
