Easiest Goat’s Cheese Salad

Easiest Goat’s Cheese Salad

This is the easiest goat's cheese salad ever. I eat loads of different goat's cheese lunches but this one is the quickest to make as it requires no cooking, just the opening of a few packets! It's barely a recipe, to be honest, and hardly even warrants a proper post,...

Recipe: My Amazing Keema Curry!

Recipe: My Amazing Keema Curry!

I posted this video on Youtube months ago and totally forgot to put it up here on the website. Sorry about that! It's the recipe for one of my all-time favourite dishes, Keema Curry. (Keema is just lamb mince, so don't be put off by the unfamiliar.) The best thing...

Which Supplements Should I Be Taking?

Which Supplements Should I Be Taking?

I must tell you that I get thoroughly confused when it comes to supplements. No longer is a simple multivitamin enough; a new superfood or magical health-improving tablet seems to be added to the long list of nutritional "must-haves" every week. And I used to be...

Light Lunch: The Classic Greek Salad

Light Lunch: The Classic Greek Salad

Not really a recipe, more an idea. A passing thought. Namely: how amazing is a Greek salad when you haven't had one in a while? I get sick of feta cheese very easily, especially when I go to Greece on holiday and have it for virtually every meal, but after a bit of...

How to Start Running – Tips from the Top!

How to Start Running – Tips from the Top!

Two weeks ago I attempted to start running. I say "attempted" because I did two runs and then realised that I was totally and utterly unequipped to take on the challenge. As a total non-runner, I had thought that just sticking on some trainers and downloading an...

The Bread-Free Breakfast: Herbed Mediterranean Frittata

The Bread-Free Breakfast: Herbed Mediterranean Frittata

I've been trying to cut down my bread intake. Which isn't too much of a faff, apart from the fact that in the mornings I do tend to rely on being able to pop a couple of slices of wholegrain into the toaster and spread on some butter and honey. I can live without...

Friends with NutriBullets…

Friends with NutriBullets…

A little update: I went for a night out with friends this week, after I had already scheduled my NutriBullet review. Four girls, out together - we went to see The Book of Mormon in the West End, it was great fun, thanks for asking! - and naturally I was quite excited...

Useful Beauty Products to Take to the Gym.

Useful Beauty Products to Take to the Gym.

Continuing along the whole "health and fitness" vein; some useful beauty products that I take with me to the gym. On video for your entertainment - and boy is it entertaining. Especially if you like the word "moist", or want to have the mental image of me doing naked...

NutriBullet 900 Pro: The Ultimate Healthy Smoothie Maker

NutriBullet 900 Pro: The Ultimate Healthy Smoothie Maker

And so, when I had only just got my head around the idea of juicing, something else was thrown into the mix: blending. As in smoothies. (But not the mango and papaya sweet-as-you-like things you can buy with your croissants in the morning; we're talking very green and...

Getting Back into a Fitness and Exercise Routine!

Getting Back into a Fitness and Exercise Routine!

It is the year of the slug. Well it is for me, at any rate. I have never been quite so sedentary; whole days - weeks - sat virtually motionless in front of the computer. If an alien landed and peered in through my office window, it would probably think I was dead, but...

It’s All Good (but remember the measuring cups)

It’s All Good (but remember the measuring cups)

I have to say that, despite Mr AMR's scepticism, Gwyneth Paltrow's recipe book, It's All Good, is rather good. Although some may find the introductory chapter a little off-putting (full of ingredients that might seem unfamiliar or difficult to get hold of), once you...
