How incredible does this Guinness Cake look? I hugely appreciate customers sending me their creations - it keeps my content fresh and I just love to hear how you’re getting on! “Thermie has been a game changer for our family meals and baking. I made the most amazing Guinness chocolate cake and I have never achieved such a smooth cream cheese frosting before, even with my KitchenAid (which I have now sold). And it took 30 seconds! ❤️”

When you ask your son to film your assembly and he makes you do weird TikTok business 🤦‍♀️ this is the vegetable seeded wraps from the other day, loaded with healthy stuff. The things I do for love ❤️

Fermenting your own food can be so satisfying and a very cheap way of doing it - yoghurt, sauerkraut, cheese, siracha, kefir are all good ways to increase diversity of your microbiome and improve digestion. If you’re going to buy something ready made, always check the labels - if the list is too long and too confusing it’s probably not worth it! If you’re buying fermented food, it’s likely not the raw version but this is the real deal & is absolutely delish 💜

Protein Boosted Oatmeal… ***Trigger Warning - this porridge contains cottage cheese!*** Well I love cottage cheese, but not everyone does which I put down to a challenging texture. My top tip here is to whizz the cottage cheese as your first step in your Thermomix until smooth (10 seconds/ speed 6 should do it). Then put to one side and continue with the recipe. I doubled the protein powder and the water and cottage cheese and cooked WITH the banana. Serve with frozen cherries & raspberries and it was really very good. If standard porridge leaves you hungry, it means you’re getting a blood sugar spike from the oats and the spike needs a good whack on the head with protein and fibre. Adding the frozen fruit adds a summery vibe and interesting contrast 🙌

Cranberry Almond Chicken Salad (without the cranberries!). I used yoghurt instead of mayo and added some dill & walnuts… a great high protein, low carb lunch 💚
