This tasty mama was dinner tonight. I found the recipe at 'Multiply Delicious' and have been meaning to try it out for a while. We had them with whole wheat burger buns, mayo, salad and tomato. You're welcome.

I Love London
I love London right now, its people, the tourists, the Olympics, its multiculturalism, hearing people cheer, roaming its streets with Mr A, going to food festivals, eating amazing food, drinking lovely wine..... I love London!
I had to drag Mr A away from Olympic TV today to take in some real Olympic atmosphere in London. We’d heard about the Olympic ‘houses’ that have been set up around London so wanted to visit a few. We started off...

Chorizo and Asparagus Frittata
I'm not very good at putting together my own recipes. I'm much better at trawling the internet and finding amazing recipes that other, more talented people have put together. My friend said that I've got a special talent for finding the really good ones. However, I am good at putting together some recipe's of my own, the ones where you just throw everything in a bowl and hope for the best like this Chorizo and Asparagus Frittata.

Whole 30 Progress
It's not going very well at all, I lasted about 3 days. The minute I restricted my diet so much it stopped being fun. It turned in to eating just to fuel rather than enjoying the process of cooking and finding new recipes. It was the grilled halloumi that did it. You try telling a hormonal women she can't have grilled halloumi when that is exactly what she wants at that exact moment.
Now, I know these are just excuses because if I had planned and organised myself properly I would be cooking new recipes that easily fit in with...

Foodie Photos
I don't know what it is about taking pictures of my food that makes me feel so self satisfied!? These are some of my favorites from the last couple for months, some of which were before I started the Whole 30 Challenge. I'll post about my (not so impressive) progress soon!
From Top Left: Cherries and Grilled Halloumi (my late night snack, so good!!), Left over BBQ Chicken, Spinach and Tomato Salad, Sweet Potato Falafels, Puy...

Whole 30
A few posts ago I said I wanted to quit sugar. It's been 2 weeks since I stopped taking sugar in tea and coffee. I felt completely depressed for the first few days, it got easier but I've found myself craving sweet things in the evenings. I don't want to replace the sugar I'm giving up in tea with snacks in the evenings! So this week while looking for inspiration I stumbled upon this;
This is basically about as...
Sweet Potato Falafels
My new favourite recipe, Sweet Potato Falafels. So easy, quick and healthy, my kind of food.
You can find the recipe over at 'My New Roots' blog. I served mine with loads of tahini sauce on spinach, rocket and tomato salad. The recipe makes loads so perfect for lunch the next day.

The Commandments
Source
As I mentioned in my first post I've been trying to eat as gluten free as possible lately. As well as limiting gluten I have also tried to eat as 'clean' as possible by sticking to fresh, unprocessed, unrefined foods that haven't been played around with too much. There is so much out there about what we should and shouldn't eat and conflicting arguments as to why not. I was overwhelmed by this at first but I'm starting to...

Cauliflower Crust Pizza
I can't stop telling everyone I know about this clever little recipe I found at Eat. Drink Smile. I never know what to do with cauliflower other than steaming, crudités and adding to curries, so I came across this recipe when scouring the internet. Here's a picture of my version, which I think is not far off the original and tasted so good! This also fits right in with my attempts to eat as gluten free as possible....
