HEALTHY MAYS

This comforting #mushroom and #lentil #vegan #shepherdspie with #sweetpotatomash is perfect for a wholesome, healthy meal full of #fibre & #rainbow #antioxidants. Ideal for cooler wintery nights this is one of my fave hearty #recipes. This definitely isnt your traditional shepherd’s pie, I’ve swapped lentils for meat, #sweetpotato mash for regular white potato mash and a #tomato based sauce instead of gravy sauce. Showing that pies dont have to be unhealthy, full of refined c

Its #halloween so of course time for some hearty #pumpkin #soup! This is the most cheesy (#vegan), creamy, smooth & delicious veloute #pumpkinsoup topped with toasted sunflower seeds & parsley. If you're having it as a main meal instead of a snack - make sure you add a good quality protein source to go alongside it and of course a dark green leafy veg salad for optimum digestion and fibre.

This one is one of my fave summer #mango flavours. Soaking the nuts is a great t

Nothing beats a #potatosalad perfect for #summertime and #barbecue season and this one is a really jazzy version made with #roasted Jersey Royal #newpotatoes for that yummy nutty crunchy flavour and jazzed up with roasted #beetroot, hot smoked #salmon and #watercress. Not only are you getting plenty of fuel and carbs in this #salad via the #jerseyroyals but also lots of #omega3 fatty acids in the salmon, amazing for fighting inflammation in the body, heart health and even upl

These yummy #pancakes are the best blood sugar balancing #breakfast or #brunch. Eating a #highprotein meal keeps your #bloodsugars steady so they dont crash afterwards like they can sometimes with a carb heavy meal. They are also super satiating since the protein keeps you full for longer in between meals. Protein is our most satiating macro and if you are #plantbased especially you may find that you are more carb heavy and protein light so this is a fab way of boosting your
