There is something so comforting about sitting down to a bowl of hearty delicious soup in Winter and I think soup is the perfect vehicle to get in the wonderfully nourishing foods our bodies thrive off at this time of year.

This recipe has been brewing in my mind for a long time and I was very happy to finally test them and be more than satisfied with the result - crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle!

Making up a big batch of salad on the weekend is such a good idea because lunch for the next 2 -3 days is sorted! I am always trying to come up with different salad combo's because I feel like salad is something people get sick of quite quickly. 

These burgers are a great vegetarian option whilst still keeping the protein high with chickpea's and quinoa.

Sweet Potato...mmmmmm!! Definitely one of my favourite foods, especially when its baked in the oven. These bright orange beauties are a great source of slow releasing carbohydrates which help to stabilise your blood sugar levels and improve your response to insulin.

Even using sugar substitutes or small amounts of natural sweeteners can have your body still craving for sweetness so I have put together a list of 20 snacks that are sweet free and isn't your boring old vegetable sticks or a handful of nuts. 

This salad is a fantastic example of how you can balance a vegetarian meal. Millet is a great gluten free alternative that is similar to cous cous when cooked and is rich in iron, phosphorus and B vitamins, not to mention it also has an impressive amino acid profile for a grain. In this recipe I have used turmeric in the cooking liquid which has phenomenal anti-inflammatory properties.
