]]> This recipe couldn’t be more simple and easy to make. Plus a healthy alternative to carry with you when you are out and about, to use as a snack when you need it and to cover with home made Hummus, Guacamole or Salsa. Or whatever dip you care to make.

These can be quite crumbly, however practise makes perfect and they are fun, tasty and handy to have in the fridge for when you need something.

Seeded crackers, homemade hummus, salad & mint – a snack fit for a king. Or queen!


Crunchy Seeded Crackers
Servings8 portions
Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Combine all dry ingredients into a bowl, mixing well. Add water carefully.
  2. When the mixture feels quite sturdy (stronger than wallpaper paste - but not like concrete) then spread this out on a baking tray, lined with baking paper.
  3. spread to around ½ cm in depth and cook for around 15 minutes on a low heat. You just want the crackers to get slightly crispy. It may take longer but keep checking on them and when you can break a corner off, they are done.
  4. Leave to cool then decide on your topping!

]]> I just love the colour of this breakfast smoothie and the vitamin A it contains will give you laser vision! Well, not quite but it is very good for the eyes and if I have a lot of computer work to do this really helps me feel less foggy. Great for energy and easy digestion this tasty treat will soon become a form favourite!

You will need a smoothie maker for this recipe! I used a Nutri-Bullet. Not expensive and in regular use at my house!

Carrot and orange smoothie
Servings1 person
Prep Time5 minutes
Ingredients
  • 1 Carrot
  • 1 Orange
  • 2tbsp Oatsorganic gluten free rolled oats are best
  • 1/2cup Waterdistilled, energised, fresh clear water is best
  • 1/2 Bananafor added sweetness
  • 1tsp seedsI used flax seeds to help keep my bowel moving but any seeds will do
  • 1lime wedgefor decoration and added sharpness
Instructions
  1. TIP! Pour the water into the smoothie jug first so nothing gets clogged or stuck at the top.
  2. Peel and chop the orange and wash and chop the carrot. Peel banana and break into small chunks. Add these to the smoothie maker.
  3. Add the dry ingredients. If you take vitamins you can add these to the mix if not in capsule form. I added my vitamin D to this smoothie just to make doubly sure I was getting everything I need to set me up for the day.
  4. Blend or pulse for 30 - 40 seconds until smoothie is fully blended. You may add more water at this point if you prefer a less thick consistency. I like to 'chew' my smoothies and make a real meal out of it but we will each have a personal preference on desired consistency. Go with the flow and enjoy the glow! Serve with a lime wedge.

]]> This is a really decadent breakfast and such a treat! Use your choice of toasted gluten free bread. The blueberries are antioxidant rich and will help your cells with their battle against free radical damage. This helps build your body back at a cellular level and will give you clearer skin and a smoother digestive journey.

Ideally this recipe will be for the rebalance part of your course as it contains maple syrup but you could try it with using only butter if you wanted to include it as part of your detoxing journey. The blueberries are sweet enough and will be a treat to the taste buds!

Blueberry French Toast
Servings1 person
Prep Time7 minutes
Cook Time5 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Toast the bread.
  2. Whilst the bread is toasting, add the blueberries, water and a tbsp of maple syrup to a saucepan and reduce.
  3. Whisk the egg with cinnamon and dunk the toast in so it coats both sides.
  4. Add the butter to a fry pan and then lightly fry the toast both sides until a crispy golden brown.
  5. Once the toast is ready, serve and add the blueberries. Drizzle the remaining maple syrup over the top and enjoy!
