It’s almost Easter, so of course our breakfast had to have carrots in it.

It’s almost Easter so carrots need to be in one meal every day.

It’s almost Easter so of course my bunny tea towel had to come out.

It’s almost Easter, so of course I’m going to share a super easy, healthy recipe with you.

It’s almost Easter so here’s a quick breakfast carrot cake baked oatmeal recipe.
1/2 cup oats, 1/4 cup milk, 2 large tablespoons of apple sauce, 1 egg, a pinch of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, 4 small baby carrots peeled… mix all the ingredients in a blender, until combined, then add in 2 tablespoons of a nut of your choice and three chopped dates… pulse until they are roughly chopped in your batter. Pour the batter into a ramekin and I baked mine in an airfryer for about 15 minutes at 350f, but adjust the time to your airfryer… it was so good served with yogurt and fresh fruit.

Monopoli in southern Italy was where we stayed… would I stay there again… it was amazing, so the answer to that is a resounding YES!
Life in Italy took a little getting used to, no Wawa gas stations for all your needs 24 hours a day, the roads were crazy to say the least and Italian parking and driving is not for the faint hearted that’s for sure!
But when all is said and done… Italy is an amazing place, that we here in the US and back in the UK could definitely learn a lot about life from.

If you want to read all about that beautiful town we stayed in… read on, you may just find yourself planning a trip there too! -

What do you do when you’ve been away all weekend… well, me I spend my Monday morning in the kitchen…

First job of the day, let’s save all the leftovers from last week instead of just throwing them away. Stale bread is made into breadcrumbs and frozen, a tip I got from my peasant food Italian cookbook. All other leftovers like, rice, noodles and pork get frozen and not thrown away… we can always use those up for lunches, freezing extends its life.

Next stop apple pie chia puddings for tomorrow’s breakfast, then it’s stime to start the lasagna for dinner tonight. Bolognese simmering, pasta made and drying, it’s time to make the béchamel sauce.

My tip here to save money is… substitute some of the meat for plant based ground meat and lentils, no one will even notice and you are getting more nutrients too!

I have one more money saving tip when you are making a lasagna… heat the oven and make something else at the same time… so when this lasagna bakes so will my whole cauliflower to go with it and also some apple muffins… one oven three things made and ready for the week. Also if you can make a double batch of lasagna… and then freeze the other half, healthy freezer meals for a night when you have no time, and you need a quick meal!

Monday money saving tips straight from my kitchen… let’s beat these crazy prices!

We are back from a Summer living in a hotel with a very limited kitchen due to house problems… then a hastily arranged trip to the UK and Italy… and now we are back home adjusting to our lives again!

Read all about adapting to being in my kitchen again, getting back into homeschooling schedules and just every day life back at home in October.

Soup season is here… read all about how I have embraced this in my from scratch cooking, added apples from apple picking into the food we eat and much more!

Breakfast they say is the most important meal of the day… so make the first thing that you eat each day count!

Strawberry smoothie overnight oats.

1 cup of oats
1 cup of frozen strawberries
1cup of plant based milk, I used h**p seed milk
1 cup plant based plain yogurt
2 teaspoons maple syrup (completely optional)
2 tablespoons of chia seeds

In a blender combine strawberries, milk, yogurt and maple syrup until it is thoroughly blended and smooth. Add your smoothie mixture to your oats and chia seeds in a bowl, then divide into two and place in to sealed containers (I love mason jars for this).

Leave your containers in the refrigerator overnight and then in the morning you can put some fun toppings on top of your overnight oats… I topped mine with frozen blueberries, sunflower seeds, cacao chips and a little more maple syrup!

I made some fresh green juice, and served it with our oats… a yummy nutrient packed breakfast!

Do you need a quick breakfast that’s easy to prep and healthy too… do you need a super delicious on the go breakfast or a pick me up snack in the middle of the afternoon?

Well this recipe is for you, full of fibre, nuts, seeds, fruit, no fat, no dairy and totally vegan.

My on the go healthy granola bars!

1 cup oats
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup raw cashews
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup raisins or any other dried fruit
2 tablespoons of flax meal
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon peanut butter powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1/2 cup apple sauce
1/2 cup cacao chips

Preheat fan oven to 300f.

In a blender or food processor pulse the oats, nuts, seeds and dried fruits until they are finely chopped, add to a bowl with all the other ingredients… then mix until they are all combined.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the dough into the center, create an 8” x 8” square with the dough then with another piece of parchment paper on top of the mixture lightly press down until the dough is firmly compacted.

Bake the granola dough for 25 minutes… allow to cool then cut into 12 rectangular pieces… divide with parchment paper and allow to refrigerate for an hour… well that’s if you wait, they are so darn good!

On a side note… feel free to switch out whatever nuts, seeds and dried fruit to what you like, also if you are not worried about the fat content add some nut butter instead of the peanut butter powder… the world is your oyster go have fun with these, they are so darn good! 🤩

My husband and I were inspired by our night away on Friday… we woke up and had breakfast in our hotel, my husband spied a freshly pressed juice on the menu… oh my it was delicious, beets, carrots and apple, who new healthy juicing of root veggies could be this good! And so our journey into juicing began, lots of research, lots of recipe ideas and this week we are on our third day of morning fresh juices with our new juicer, what a wonderful way to get all those micro nutrients into your body quickly… we have been through so much produce already!

Of course when you juice you remove the fiber if you do not add in the pulp so we have been having healthy fruit smoothie overnight oats bowls. Here is quick recipe I threw together this morning:

Juice… sunshine in a glass! 🌞
Celery
Oranges
Papaya
Carrots

Overnight oats… tropical paradise! 🥭
Blitz together a cup of frozen mango, a cup of water and 2 scoops of all natural organic coconut milk powder. (Alternatively use a cup of coconut milk instead of the water and coconut powder)

Mix the mango smoothie together with half a cup of organic oats, (please make sure all your oats are organic, if not they are sprayed with that terrible Roundup) add two table spoons of chia seeds and leave in the refrigerator over night.

To serve in the morning divide between two bowls, and top with anything your ♥️ desires… I topped mine with papaya, sunflower seeds, h**p seeds and cacao chips! (I would have added shredded coconut but Mabel took my bag to college this past weekend… 🤩) Relax and just enjoy! 🤩🤩🤩
