Detox

Fresh and delicious

Pineapple and Passion Fruit with Toasted Coconut Flakes

This is an extremely easy, cheap and healthy dessert to make.

A refreshing and very healthy drink

Strawberry and Watermelon Drink

I love the texture of this drink because it's very light and almost frothy and wonderfully refreshing.

Lovely and fresh cucumber salad

Almond and Cucumber Salad

I know I say this about nearly all my recipes but this one truly is amazingly healthy. It contains healthy fats, calcium, protein, fibre, antioxidants and minerals.

Maria and Pete are dear friends of ours who used to own and run a cafe called 4 Market Place in central London (very close to where we used to live).

My favourite remedy when I have a sore throat

A Drink for Sore Throats

I don't get a sore throat often and I rarely ever get a flu or a cold (thankfully).

A delicious smoothie although very sticky when in a hot car!

A Very Sticky Nairobi Banana Smoothie

Oh dear, oh dear. It was September 2007 and me and my husband were travelling in Kenya. We were waiting to fly back to London and had a couple of hours to spend.

Bean sprouts are packed with enzymes

Aduki Bean Sprouts

There are some tools available that are supposed to make your sprouting easier, however I have had fantastic results with just a glass jar and water.

Lovely and fresh cucumber salad

I know I say this about nearly all my recipes but this one truly is amazingly healthy. It contains healthy fats, calcium, protein, fibre, antioxidants and minerals.

A light and refreshing drink and cleansing as well

Apple and Grape Juice

This is one of the shortest recipe on my website. Short doesn't have to be bad though, right? This is a very refreshing and lovely drink, especially in summer.

A lovely and simple dressing for every salad

Apple and Tamari Dressing

This is a lovely, fat free salad dressing which can also be served with nut patties, burgers, grilled vegetables and more.

A very filling and heart healthy smoothie

This smoothie is very filling, almost like a full meal. It is packed with fibre, protein, vitamins A, C and E, calcium and healthy, mono-unsaturated fats.

A tasty and colourful salad packed with vitamins

Avocado and Cantaloupe Salad with Lemon Grass Dressing

I love this salad, especially in the summertime. Cantaloupes are packed with Beta Carotene (which are converted into vitamin A in our bodies) and vitamin C and are very good for our eyes.

A very good smoothie for the digestive system

Avocado and Pineapple Smoothie

This is an excellent smoothie for the whole family. The pineapple contains Bromelain which is an enzyme that helps the digestive system.

Avocado Pineapple and Red Onion Salad

This salad is interesting and a bit different. You wouldn't necessarily bet on pineapple and red onion as a duet but it works!

Banana and Peanut Butter Smoothie

This is one of the creamiest, loveliest, smoothie ever.

This is a fantastically healthy juice, packed with vitamins and antioxidants.

A juice packed with iron, vitamins and vitality

Beet and Carrot Juice

This juice is packed with vitamins and goodness.

A wonderfully healthy salad with vibrant colours

Beet Salad with Parmesan and Rocket Leaves

This is the perfect late summer salad. It has vibrant colours and a slightly sweet taste with a peppery kick. I adore beets (beetroots), especially baked as it brings out their subtle sweetness.

Colourful and healthy ice lollies

Berry and Rhubarb Ice Lollies

These lollies are as colourful as they are healthy. They are layered and I always like layered colours in food because it is fun to look at and gives you a mini selection of different tastes.

Lovely and blue, just for you

Blueberry and Banana Ice Cream

Yum..I absolutely love this ice cream. When I first made it I made a large batch and put the leftover into the freezer and then completely forgot about it.

A super healthy ice cream, absolutely packed with antioxidants

Blueberry and Chocolate Ice Cream

Blueberries and chocolate are a fairly unusual combination, at least in an ice cream.

Carrot and Celery Juice

Carrots and celery are a classic combination in the juice world and no wonder, I think it is amazing.

A lovely juice, and packed with antioxidants and vitamins

Carrot and Fruit Juice

This is more like a smoothie or a thick juice since the pear and nectarine are blended in a food processor or blender. You can also juice the fruits if you prefer a thinner juice.

An easy and very healthy salad, the perfect side dish for the barbecue

Carrot, Pineapple and Sultana Salad

An easy and very healthy salad, the perfect side dish for the barbecue. I have tasted a similar version of this salad several times in Kenya.

Not the most beautiful smoothie in the world but very healthy

I know that this smoothie doesn't look beautiful...it has a brownish colour and looks kind of uninteresting.
