With Christmas quickly coming up on us it starts to be time to plan the menu for the day, and a big pile of greens is always an excellent choice to balance out the meal. These cranberry hazelnut greens are not only fresh and light but very Christmassy in flavour, and they look pretty too!
I don’t share cocktail recipes often here, but after whipping up this autumnal treat I thought I should share the love around so you can enjoy one too! The best part is this apple cranberry cocktail is quick and easy to whip up and is sure to make everyone’s weekend (or weeknight, I’m not judging!).
While I try and eat pretty healthy most of the time, sometimes I just need to whip up a baked good to have with a cup of tea, or to take to work to stave away the mid-afternoon energy slump. That was the impetus behind this cranberry, almond & choc chip slice and I was certainly happy with how it turned out! I think I’ll be making this one again soon!
Given my love of hearty salads it’s probably no surprise that when it comes to family gatherings I am generally given the task of bringing along a salad or two. With Christmas fast approaching I thought it was about time I started playing with some options to make this year and so far this roast chickpea & sweet potato salad is sitting in first place.
I seem to be using oats in a lot of my baking of late, I don’t know whether it’s because oats remind me of winter food but it shall be interesting to see how long it lasts! There’s something about oats in cookies that makes them feel healthier and more filling, and with the addition of fruit and nuts you could almost eat these for breakfast!
