Paleo Maki Rolls aka Sushi

Egg Fried Cauli-Rice

Egg fried rice was one of the first meals I ever learnt to cook so it is only fitting that I still make it - albeit in a Paleo incarnation. Egg Fried Cauli-Rice jazzed up with Sliced Avocado and Cucumber and a 'P'aleo drizzle of sirracha As with any fried rice the meat can be substituted with whatever cooked meat is to hand.

Beetroot Banana Cocoa Cake

Beetroot Banana Cocoa Cake Ahead of my 4 year old starting school I worried about a great many things at length - how he would make friends, would he like his teacher, could he be trusted to wash his hands properly after going to the toilet, how damaging to his self esteem would it be sitting next to a boy with photographic memory.

Best of all, no unknown or unwanted ingredients lurking unseen!

Whole Orange and Butternut Squash Breakfast Muffins

Whole Orange and Butternut Squash Breakfast Muffins Growing up, we were the sort of family who used all elements of a vegetable, fruit or meat in our meals. From the eyeballs of the fish to the feet on the chicken and the more mundane broccoli stalks (why only eat the florets?), nothing was off limits.
