  • Make Your own Fruit & Veggie Wash

    Do you always give your fruit and veg a good wash before biting in? I’ll be honest, not always. Sometimes, when I’m really feeling a bit… lazy, I’ll do a quick splash under the tap, but if there were any pesticides or bacteria there that could do damage I wouldn’t have made a dent in it. No…

  • Avocado & Lime Pasta = Stress-free cooking!

    I just hosted a very good friend’s birthday party and we had such a blast! We chatted, sipped champagne and ate for hours. If you’ve ever hosted, I know you’re thinking: the host never gets to enjoy all the fun, we’re stuck in the kitchen preparing the food! Not this time! I planned a stress-free…
