Chocolate Coconut Brownies
Flourless, crumbly, moist, and chocolatey? Rich, satisfying, and . . . low-fructose? I love brownies! I’ve made countless batches over the years, starting from the good-old Edmonds Cookbook recipes, to my own variations involving dates, wholemeal flours, ground almonds, and even olive oil. Now, I know how to make healthy,…
Chocolate, Peanut Butter, and Avocado Smoothie
Aah, this smoothie makes my mornings spectacular. Smooth, creamy, and incredibly, thick, it’s full of healthy and satiating fats, protein, and vitamins.

With lutein to protect against eye degeneration, 25 essential nutrients, healthy and satiating fats, anti-inflammatory properties, and an ability to regulate blood sugar levels, avocados are one of my FAVOURITE foods!…
