Final part for the Christmas Veggie Recipes for this year. My Brussel Sprout dish is really a miracle because even lukewarm and soggy sprouts taste great with this recipe. The Saffron Potato and Parsnip Mash is perfect too because the saffron makes it sound posh enough for Christmas. […]
When you are making a veggie Christmas dinner you can really go to town on the vegetable dishes. Here are two recipes that are quite easy to make but delicious and impressive. The stoved potatoes are particularly good because you make them in a pan but they look […]
Veggie Christmas Cookery Demo’s This week we have had some great Veggie Christmas cookery demo’s, in Sale, Manchester and Dimensions in Bangor. This is a great nut roast recipe from the demo. It’s not a veggie Christmas without nut roast, burned roasties and luke warm sprouts. Make plenty […]
You don’t necessarily need to be a strict vegetarian to be healthy. Even a predominantly plant-based diet is a much healthier lifestyle choice than eating largely animal products every day. In the USA, a congregation called ‘Seventh Day Adventists’ has many people who choose to be vegetarian. Other […]
After giving the liver a bit of a treat, now it’s time to look at another really important detox organ: the skin. Most people don’t realise but the skin, because of its large surface area, is a bit like a third kidney. Through sweat and shedding dead skin […]
A castor oil pack is a really gentle way to detox the liver, and that’s important because the liver helps us digest fats, detoxes the blood, regulates hormones and stores energy. The pack gently relaxes the liver allowing it release toxins and rejuvenate. The potential benefits are; more […]
Went to the yoga show this weekend, which was great. Somehow though I have conditioned myself to go to these shows really hungry. I think it’s from my time working at Dimensions the Dru health food store. Then we used to go to lots of organic food fairs, […]
As you know the journey from London to Bangor on the train can be challenging food wise, see my blog “the-trip-back-to-wales” . This time I was taking no chances, Greens and Beans the Dru cafe is only a few minutes from Euston station, and an absolute oasis of […]
Juicing is a great way to start the day, and supplement your nutrition naturally. It transforms simple vegetables into a delicious drink and the nutrients are in a natural liquid form making them easy to absorb. It’s so easy, try chewing 5 carrots, see how long it takes, but put […]
Went to the cinema last night to see Eat, Love, Pray which was great. It was amazing to see god and prayer featured on a mainstream film. Normally god is a taboo subject it’s a bit like a three-letter word! I think basically god is suffering a major image […]
Just started the day with a really healthy green smoothie. The great thing about this is that you can take quite a few healthy ingredients like omega oil, barley grass, raw spinach and lecithin that individually you would have to force down like medicine, and whizz them up into something delicious […]
I thought Bulgaria was bad for veggie food, till i just got the train to Wales. Was a bit late, so no time to stop at the Euston M&S food store for a really healthy falafel wrap and salad as planned. Had to rush on the train at […]
Its my turn tonight to cook again! Whoever is doing the rota is forgetting to put themselves on it… So pinto beans tonight, why? Because we have got about three things to choose from and we have done the other two. So I soaked these for 8 hours. People […]
