Summer Garden Berry Smoothie

vegan summer garden berry smoothie

There’s something deeply satisfying about the vibrant sweetness of a summer garden berry smoothie, especially with fruit freshly gathered from your own raspberry and strawberry plants (if you are fortunate enough to grow your own that is). For years, my soft fruit crops never seemed to yield enough to allow me to bring any back to the kitchen, because I’d devour them straight off the plant! These days, I feel…

Super Cleansing Green Kale & Coriander Drink

Super Cleansing Green Kale & Coriander Drink

There are an infinite number of combinations that you can create, yet, most people usually find a favourite combination that they go back to again and again. I’ve been juicing my favourite ‘super cleansing green tonic kale & coriander drink’ for years now… After traveling last week I am…

Apple & Cinnamon Smoothie With Tahini

Apple & Cinnamon Smoothie With Tahini

Smoothies make a regular appearance in our house around breakfast time each morning. Apples don’t always spring to mind when people think of smoothies, which is a bit of a pity because they really are one of nature’s finest super foods, well worthy of our attention. I find that adding a little tahini (a paste made from sesame seeds – see notes below) helps to slow down the release of…
