So I posted this picture on Facebook and Instagram asking my followers to guess what I was making and what was in it. I got some pretty good and funny answers. Some said, a salad, but that the powder was throwing them off and most said a soup. When I asked them to specify ingredients, …
Sugar-Free
Banana Walnut & Chocolate Chip Muffins
There’s something so comforting about banana muffins or banana bread, don’t you agree? The smell from the oven is so delicious, the muffins are moist and the taste is so perfect! They’re probably one of my favourite flavours in muffins. To make them even healthier, I’ve added in a flaxseed blend. But why use flaxseeds? …
Apple Double Crumble
Who loves apple crumble? I do! I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like it to be honest. I remember as a kid how much I loved the crumble part. I mean I also loved the apples, but the crumble part was my favourite. I created this apple crumble recipe and made sure that there would …

Green Bean Salad
On Christmas day we had a family gathering at my husband’s sister’s place where my contribution to the yummy traditional turkey meal was a green salad, a green bean salad and a gluten-free dessert so my daughter could have something sweet. I think the bean salad was a hit, there was none left and my …
