My son’s weight loss Journey
This is my son Jacob. The picture on the left is June 2017. At this point he is 17. In fact he is two types of 17, as he is…
Chicken ‘n’ Beans
This has been adapted from a Pollo A La Plancha recipe, which just translates as chicken on the grill. Its the beans that accompany it that set this dish apart.
Best meatballs ever
There is so much flavour in these meatballs. The sauce is gorgeous mopped up with a low carb roll. Forget pasta you don't miss it with a side of green beans and topped with Parmesan cheese.
No Pasta Lasagne
As I advise to move away from pasta which sends blood sugar sky high, the alternative has always been to use vegetables as a swap. But this cheat, again adapted from the Diet Doctor website ticks all the taste and texture boxes whilst keeping you low carb. A revelation.
Happy pancakes
These are 'happy' because they keep the body and brain on an even keel without a huge rush of insulin needed to deal with the high starch ingredients of regular pancakes.
Creme caramel
Using raw milk and the freshest local eggs, this is a dish made in heaven. It's fructose free as it only uses glucose based sweeteners so it has a subtle sweetness. Divine.

Low carb pizza
Melted and golden Buffalo mozzarella, basil and tomato is as traditional as you can get. But without the bread that causes blood sugar spikes that can lead to long term illness.

Low carb rolls
If you are trying to reduce your blood sugar, bread is the last thing you should eat. These easy to make low carb rolls are the perfect replacement.
Ultimate Gluten Free Pastry
I have tried many many variations to get this pastry right. This is it. A proper flaky, buttery texture with endless possible uses.
Aaarrgghhh! Stop boring me with healthy eating!
I know we have to eat. It's something we all have in common. But oh my goodness isn't it boring to hear different takes on the latest food trends day in…
Sweet and Crunchy Seeds
Based on my pecan brittle recipe, this is a no-nut crisp and sweet alternative. It's also packed with loads of vitamins and Omega 3 fat.
No Egg Mayo
For those with an egg allergy or vegan, this is perfect. I've tried cashew mayo which leaves a grainy texture on coleslaw, but this is truly smooth. Tastes delicious and the flaxseed mean it's packed with omega 3's.
