Salted Peanut Butter Energy Balls

These Salted Peanut Butter Energy Balls taste like they’ve been sent from heaven after a long run.

Samphire and Cashew Cream Flan

Samphire and Cashew Cream Flan

Samphire is my new favourite food. Official. It’s a good source of Vitamin C, so sailors used to eat it to ward off scurvy, an obscure enough reason to love any ingredient, IMHO. It’s also fresh-tasting, delicious and a great vegan source of calcium. I like the way Jane Rowney describes it in Weekend Notes:…

It’s food, it’s salad and it is straight-up super, packed full of ingredients that nutritionists wax lyrical about because they are so unbelievably good for you. Let’s call it a really, really great…
