Vegan Chickpea Wraps

Vegan Chickpea Wraps These versatile Chickpea wraps are perfect as an accompaniment to curries or stews but work equally well as a salad wrap or with fajitas. I got the inspiration from the wraps they make on the Italian coast of Liguria. Here they are cooked on a super hot griddle often to great proportions and cut into triangles to serve along side fresh fish and salads. They are delicious on their own or experiment with adding flavours to the batter and sprinkling fresh herbs on top too. Some of our favourite flavours are below. Makes 8 Ingredients 200g gram (chickpea flour) ¼ teaspoon sea

Three Classic Overnight Oats Recipes for a Winter Treat

I’ve been experimenting with overnight oats for a while but I think it’s important to get the flavours right and add some texture too or all you end up with is a mushy goo. If that’s been your experience too, give these three delicious flavours a try – they have become staples in our household. The brilliant things about Overnight Oats is that they’re so easy to make, all you need to do is throw all the ingredients into a bowl or screw top jar – I love an old fashioned Kilner jar, give it a stir and put it in the fridge until morning (or 3 hours if you’re in a super hurry!) We love them in

Ali's Favourite Mixed Vegetable Soup

A great recipe for using up an abundance of root vegetables. Try adding different combinations to see what you like best - you can't go wrong.

Ali’s Super Green Juice

I love a green juice mid-morning or mid-afternoon if I’m feeling like I need a break in the office or am just back from a dog walk. They seem to pick me up and provide a spring to my step. All that green goodness is a real energy boost. Although I’ve added so many greens I like to get a scoop of the Arbonne Greens Balance in there too as it has a broad spectrum of fruits and veg in it so you’re getting much more than your single 1 portion. It’s also super alkalsying to your digestive system too which I love. If you’re having a Green Juice post a workout why not add a scoop or two of pure Vegan

Coconut Protein Pancakes you won’t believe are Gluten Free

I’ve been experimenting with gluten free American style pancakes for ages. The mixture was either too thick to cook all the way through or so runny it became a flat pancake rather than a fluffy American style. These are pretty much perfect in every way. Packed with protein, vitamins and minerals, due to the addition of a plant based protein powder, they are super delicious. They make a perfect breakfast or brunch and would double up as a treat for pudding too. Enjoy Ingredients: 50g coconut flour 1 ½ tea spoon bicarbonate of soda 2 scoops Arbonne Essentials Vanilla Protein Powder (20g protein)

Sweet Potato Pea Fritters

When I first suggested these as a brunch snack Mr H looked a little perplexed. I don’t know what he was expecting but they turned out much better than either of us anticipated. They are little dollops of yummy-ness on a plate. I like to serve them with a green salad, salad leaves or watercress, when in season. Half a sliced avocado and a poached egg on top really complete the dish. You could of course serve them with a dip as an appetiser before supper or as a mid-afternoon snack while entertaining friends. The choice is yours. All I ask if that you enjoy. Ingredients 30g frozen peas –

Roast pumpkin seeds with fennel and chilli

It’s that time of year. I am scanning the US sites with envy as I see all the amazing halloween displays and goodies to buy. Here in the UK we’re a little late to join the Halloween party but I’ve been carving pumpkins for years and love the buzz of trick or treating on a cold October night, though I do struggle to give trick or treaters all that sugar as I see it as the enemy on so many levels. Still more of this in another blog. If I’ve got my act together in time I’m going to create some healthy trick or treater treats to hand out. For now I’m simply using up the pumpkin seeds from my

Ali’s Beetroot Hummus

I love beetroot but no one else in the Hutchinson house will touch it. I’ve tried adding it to smoothies, chocolate brownies, soups but they still detect it so I’ve now given up and have to eat a whole bunch to myself. Shame! This beetroot hummus recipe came out of necessity. I had cooked some beetroot that had arrived in our organic box but had far more than I needed so was wondering what to do with it. Making a batch of hummus for the following week is often a weekend task so I just put the two together and hey presto you have the most delicious, amazing coloured hummus you can imagine

Ali’s Superfood Protein Bars

I love a refined sugar free protein bar that is also gluten free and these are just one of my best inventions. Not only are they packed with protein and super foods but they are super tasty – they’ll keep for a week in an airtight container (if you’re lucky) – they never last that long in our house! Give them a try and let me know what you think. Ingredients ½ cup quinoa flakes ½ cup gluten free oats ground into flour ½ cup Arbonne vanilla protein powder A pinch pink Himalayan Salt 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup

Hummingbird Café Inspired Carrot and Pineapple Tray Bake with Coconut Lime Frosting

Sometimes you need cake that really feels indulgent. I've loved watching The Great British Bake Off over the years but i'm mostly left feeling hungry and disappointed that so many of the gluten free alterntives to traditional cakes are so dense, tasteless or packed with refined sugar. This was a superb exeriement that i undertook after I had a can of pineapple pieces left over from a birthday party. I'd been tasked with re-creating one of those 1970's inspired hedgehogs of cheese and pineapple spikes! It was a triumph and thankfully this cake was too. My inspiration was a cake I tasted at the
