High protein chocolate and banana porridge

The cold and the rain has settled in truly here in the UK, so I have been experimenting with making my meals healthy but comforting. Annoyingly, when food is comforting it tends to be smothered in chocolate or deep fried, which is not great when I am still trying to stay consistent with my current … Continue reading High protein chocolate and banana porridge

Floof Friday

During the summer, I bought my husband and I bee revival kits from Beevive, and naturally we did not have any chance to use these during the summer months when there were bees a plenty. But I was so excited to find a very fluffy bee resting on a parking bollard whilst we were out … Continue reading Floof Friday

I am currently trying to focus on finetuning my diet, and in all honesty trying to eat 'clean' during winter is the worst idea I have ever had. The weather is cold and rainy, and all I want is some comforting food to make me feel a little bit better during this time.

M&S Plant Kitchen No chicken and chorizo sandwich

I am not normally someone who buys these ready made sandwiches, as I am very much a stickler for always bringing my own lunch with me to work.

A new vegan protein product! I feel like it has been one hot minute since a new meat alternative was welcomed onto the market, so I was somewhat disappointed to see that it is just another sausage.
