Mango Coconut and Carrot Bliss Balls

Blissful in that they taste divinely creamy, sweet and deliciously treatlike. Also in that any child (or fussy grown up) will be blissfully ignorant that they are inadvertently consuming hidden carrots and antioxidant rich turmeric! Mango Coconut and Carrot Bliss Balls

Paleo Beetroot and Artichoke Hummus

Never was there quite such a quandary on the spelling of a word than with 'hummus' - or is it 'houmous' or 'houmus', which I used in my previous two 'hummus/houmous/houmus' recipes and can be found here Lemon and Rosemary Artichoke Houmus and here Smoked Paprika and Porcini Artichoke Houmus .

Sweet Potato Turkey Indian Spiced Patties

Over the busy summer holidays I have been trying to make meals that: a) cater to the tastes of all members of the family (quite a tall order given the diversity of strong likes and dislikes; b) require minimal fussing over a hob in the summer heat; c) can be served cold straight from the fridge for efficient leftover lunches.

A winner in our household!

After all, this is the highly sensitive subject of doughnuts, people! No-Bake Mini Matcha Sesame Dougnuts
