If you’re looking for a low-carb meal that will leave you stunned rather than satisfied, this dish is for you. I’m talking tender chicken and a melting mix of herby cheese, all tied together - quite literally - with the ambrosia of our world. Bacon. (On a side note, I do…
I know, I posted a salad recipe just the other day. How can I help it? When spring arrives, the supermarket shelves come to life again, filled with freshness. Besides, this isn’t an ordinary salad. It has seven shades of green. Spinach, olives, cucumber. Spring onion, pumpkin seeds, Italian herbs. Olive…
It’s not often you find a salad that can satisfy you for dinner, especially if it lacks the carbohydrates brought by couscous, croutons, or noodles.

I am truly in love with stuffed capsicums - whether they be filled with couscous, chilli con carne, or bacon and eggs, like these! My new low-carbing lifestyle means delicious, wholesome food filled with plenty of satisfying fats and non-starchy vegetables. I don’t over-do my protein, but I can still…
Low-carb food can be difficult to make if you haven’t found the wondrous cauliflower. This delicious, vitamin-loaded vegetable provides a creamy purée under the juicy, buttery prawns. I only used the stems from my cauliflower, not the crumbly tips of the florets. You could use these, too, but I love…
