3 Gluten free Pancakes

Pancakes were always a staple in my house growing - my dad loved cooking them for us for breakfast and he definitely made the best pancakes I've ever had! He'd always made the batter at night, and so going to bed I'd know we'd be having pancakes for breakfast!! He had one of those awful recipes that he couldn't share - a dash of this, a splash of that, a few eggs... What does that even mean?!?! He did it all by consistency and they truly were the best to be had!

Best Homemade Guacamole

When it comes to my favourite type of cuisine I'm as fickle as the Irish weather. I could be with you at lunch and saying "Hands down, burgers are the greatest food! Well done America!" however by the time dinner rolls around I'll be lamenting "why isn't Lebanese food the one food of the world?" and those poor people who have never tried it "how are they surviving life?"

Brewji has taken to just smiling at me, shaking his head and saying "I know it's your favourite, dear."

Cooking for the Specific Carbohydrate Diet: Review


This is definitely one of the most useful and educational cookbooks I have ever gotten.

I was lucky enough to get it as part of my Christmas present last year and since then it hasn't been far away from me. I pretty much pick it up every single day to have a read.

Easy Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe


These are honestly the easiest cookies to make, from start to finish it was about 30 minutes, you only need 4 ingredients and they are so delicious! I was seriously craving something sweet but salty earlier on and these definitely hit that spot.

They're crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and they go great with a cup of tea.

I guess cause we were super busy, moving up to Dublin and getting settled.

Anyway, keep reading to see what I've been loving so far this year...

Homemade Granola


Granola is something I love to have in the cupboard, it's the perfect thing to snack on when you want something sweet or to add to stuff to give it a little bit of crunch. And it's so easy to get a hold of, I mean every cereal brand and supermarket brand has their own version. But, seriously, what is with the prices?! I mean, really, it's just some sweetened toasted oats with a few bits thrown in...

3 Easy to Rustle Up Lunches.

I will never be the kind of girl who can survive on a lettuce leaf for lunch, thank goodness for that. I love nice, wholesome food that keeps the mid-afternoon munchies away.

I'm here to share three of my favourite lunches to whip up that are easy and nutritious, and not a battered ham sambo in sight!
