A little while ago I was on cake duty for a work birthday and cheesecake was requested. I decided to make something I hadn’t tried before, and the result was this honey pistachio cheesecake. Like all baked cheesecakes it’s a little time consuming to make, but thankfully very simple. Most importantly, it’s delicious!
After taking lots of sweet foods into the office I decided to mix things up and go savoury with these honey paprika spiced nuts. In fact, I could barely stop snacking on them so it was a miracle any made it into my office at all! They were a big hit though, and didn’t last long in the office either!
I found some delicious looking pears at my local fruit & veggie shop and decided a salad was in order, and this beetroot pear salad was the result! It’s oh so tasty, easy to whip up and perfect for lunch or as a side at dinner. Yum!
Welcome to the last Meatless Monday recipe for 2015! I’ll still be popping in occasionally over the next few weeks but won’t get back into the full swing of things until early Jan. I’ll still be hanging out on facebook & instagram though!
With the weather getting warmer it was time to restock my freezer with icy poles! I wanted some healthy options on hand for a post-dinner treat or even a cooling breakfast option and these blueberry yogurt icy poles really hit the spot! They are super easy to whip up, deliciously tasty and are guaranteed to put a smile on your face!
I found myself with a fruit bowl full of rather ripe bananas over the weekend and, as it was a little fresh to fancy a smoothie, muffins seemed like the obvious next choice. I wanted to keep them as healthy as possible so went light on the sugar content, and threw in some nuts and lots of cinnamon to ensure they are still full of flavour. The end result was these banana walnut muffins and they were the perfect treat for work during the week!
