I don’t know about you, but until my recent colon cancer diagnosis I hadn’t heard of SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth). SIBO can be responsible for symptoms such as fatigue, bloating, wind, constipation and diarrhoea, Iron and B12 deficiencies as well as more long term chronic disease. It dawned on me (slowly), how my ‘healthy’Continue reading “Colon Cancer, SIBO & Blueberry Breakfast Crumble”

Mango, Coconut & Chia Cream
It’s officially the first day of the school holidays for us… Amid various melt-downs there were moments of loveliness. Breakfast was one of them. I think we all thoroughly appreciated the slow morning we had. The sun was shining and we sat in the garden eating and planning our day… With extra time comes aContinue reading “Mango, Coconut & Chia Cream”

It’s Make or Break – Fast…
This post comes late to the party… mainly because the party was late… and blogging the breakfast was far more than I could handle! So after a weekend of celebrations, a birthday dinner at ‘The Giggling Squid‘ Esher on Thursday night, Hersham Beer Festival on Friday night, a 40th at Weybridge Vandals on Saturday night,Continue reading “It’s Make or Break – Fast…”

Retro Rhubarb and Ginger Compote
When I think of rhubarb I think of ‘Roobarb and Custard’ the 1970’s kids TV show, or Rhubarb and Custard penny sweets, or endless Rhubarb crumbles every Sunday through the summer… I’m never very sure whether Rhubarb is a vegetable or a fruit and I’m always slightly panicked as to what to do with it.

Spelt & Honey Split-Tin Loaf
It’s been ages since I’ve made a loaf using commercial yeast, but yesterday was an exceptional day… My boy was home sick, and so was I. Nursing my sourdough, and getting up to bake it early this morning, was more than I could face. Plus, being the last week of January we are utterly utterlyContinue reading “Spelt & Honey Split-Tin Loaf”

Papaya & Coconut Porridge
It’s a tropical winter warmer… Sweet & fruity, but wonderfully warming on a cold winter’s morning… Porridge sets me up until lunch, providing there’s enough protein in it. I definitely couldn’t get by on oats and milk, but the addition of coconut milk, and or nuts and seeds keeps me going. I absolutely love thatContinue reading “Papaya & Coconut Porridge”

Papaya Yoghurt Breakfast Boats with Homemade Granola
I got into buying papaya during the summer to make a Hemsley & Hemsley ‘Papaya & Halloumi Salad‘, which by the way is absolutely delicious and a regular on the summer dinner scene at ours now. I picked one up the other day thinking that I’d make the salad, but it’s so cold I couldn’tContinue reading “Papaya Yoghurt Breakfast Boats with Homemade Granola”

It’s a Pop Shake “This Milkshake is Bananas B.A.N.A.N.A.S” or “My Milkshake Brings all the Kids to the Table”
My youngest daughter has discovered Gwen Stefani… so bananas can’t be bananas without a soundtrack! That’s why this milkshake is bananas B.A.N.A.N.A.S it’s a sensible diversion from the original expletive for a 5 year old! In fact, very many things have a soundtrack in our house. I have a musical brain, a degree in musicContinue reading “It’s a Pop Shake “This Milkshake is Bananas B.A.N.A.N.A.S” or “My Milkshake Brings all the Kids to the Table””

Chocolate Coconut Granola
Oh my, this is the kind of breakfast I absolutely shudder at when I see it in the supermarket. My contempt for chocolate breakfast cereal, and my resounding ‘absolutely not’ when the children ask for it! But here am I making it. The truth is this is beautiful, and this version is really nutritious too! Continue reading “Chocolate Coconut Granola”
