- How to make habit changes that stick
- Simple ways to make sustainable changes to your diet and lifestyle to feel better and healthier

Chocolate Overnight Oats with Strawberries
Chocolate flavoured breakfasts seem so naughty, and chocolate and strawberry together seems extra decadent! But you can eat this guilt free 🙂
Orange & Yoghurt Pancakes with Berries
Up for trying something a bit different? Get a fresh citrus start with a perfectly balanced breakfast 🙂
Cheese and Spring Onion Sandwich
A classic British sandwich which is a favourite amongst our parents. The spring onion gives a bit more zing and really complements the flavour of the cheese. And the addition of some raw veg is great for your digestion!
Cranberry Baked Oats
Warm homemade cereal bars topped with yoghurt and fresh fruit with just a hint of chocolate – yum!
Sardines on Toast
Mellow the strong taste of tinned fish with garlicy veg and toast in this omega 3 packed lunch. Perfect for healthy hearts and minds.
Spaghetti Bolognase
A real family classic. I’ve added some grated carrot, courgette and spinach into the sauce to add some extra veg, and swapped beef for the more eco-friendly pork. Still bound to go down well with the kids, especially if you blend the veg in 🙂
Sun-dried Tomato and Broccoli Quinoa
A colourful dish packed with veg but full of taste from the sun-dried tomato pesto. Also the chance to vary your grains up a bit with the quinoa.
Ultranourishing Green Smoothie
If you’re suffering from sicknesses and need to pile in the nutrients to heal, you need to pack more green leafy veg in than you can eat in a day (realistically). Smoothies are a great way to consume loads with a fairly sweet taste.
Strawberry & Chia Pudding
This is a pudding to enjoy with little guilt as it’s packed with vitamins, minerals and healthy fats. Chia seeds swell in water and become a bit like a jelly, so really this is a fancy strawberry jelly with a satisfying crunch!
Slow Cooker Cauliflower and Chickpea Tikka Masala
A good one to put on at lunchtime and produce like magic at dinner if you’ve got a busy evening. You can even cook the rice in advance too and just reheat.
