It isn’t often that I voluntarily make a dessert that doesn’t include chocolate. However this was for my mum’s birthday and my parents are a little fed up with the excess of chocolate cakes and brownies I bake! I had a lot of doubt about a cake which had fruit in where the chocolate should… Continue reading Not Skinny Raspberry and Lemon Drizzle Cake
So I’ve had an amazing holiday and am suitably brown/burnt. The food was amazing and it was great to get away and not have to cook for myself much as I enjoy it. Spain is a great place for food paella, tapas and sangria is not something many people would be able to find fault… Continue reading I’m Back!
So I want to be very transparent here I bought myself the graze box through wowcher for £4 total for 4 boxes delivered 1 per week. I also (using a separate debit card) had another free box. I selected the light boxes all of which are under 150 calories per snack. However they do a… Continue reading Graze Box Light Review
WARNING WARNING WARNING-NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT SKINNY Now I feel this probably goes without saying but there is nothing even remotely skinny about this cake. However Tasty Thursday is about the best thing you ate this week and I can without a doubt say this is the best thing I’ve eaten this week and… Continue reading Tasty Thursdays: Best Chocolate Cake Ever
This was a bit of a fridge and freezer clear out dinner for me and I am pleasantly surprised to find you can get a full Sausage and Mash dinner into under 400 calories really! I mean talk about home cooked comfort food. I know it isn’t complex cooking and not exactly original but I… Continue reading Sausage and Greek Yoghurt Mash
This is one I make to boost that protein intake if I’ve had a big gym day. It’s quick and easy and definitely doesn’t feel like diet food because you have that nice melted cheeseyness. Once again this has been approved by my difficult boyfriend so I can confirm this is safe even if you’re… Continue reading Skinny Twist Turkey Cordon Bleu
I’ve now made this twice for my diet fearing boyfriend and he has been impressed on both occasions. There is nothing about this dinner that will make you feel like you’re skimping out and yet you’re not blowing the calorie count either. This is actually a dish I had been making for ages before beginning… Continue reading Chicken Parmiagano
This was one of the first lower calories recipes I made when i started my diet. Today we’re actually having a BBQ with all of our friends and low calorie options aren’t really happening in between chocolate ice cream cocktails, burgers, sausages, birthday cake and crisps. So I thought I’d dig out one from my… Continue reading Asparagus, Bacon and Poached Egg Hash
So I’ve been having these as really great lunches recently on days where I know i don’t have a lot of time to make dinners. They’d be a perfectly good dinner too you can just serve them with a nice big salad like I have in the photo. I am a big fan of pizza… Continue reading Flat Bread Pizzas
I haven’t been doing a whole lot of cooking the last couple days with my last 2 exams and then all the post exam celebrations!

Who knows maybe it’s all the nutrients from the fish but I am hangover free today… Continue reading Cod with Bacon, Lettuce and Peas
