If you need to eat on the run then there are not many healthy, low-carb options. I’ll share the ones I discover here but my basic advice is don’t eat on the run: it plays havoc with your digestion and your diet. Chew a few nuts and wait until you’re somewhere you can eat properly.

Speedy smoked mackerel paté in gluten free courgette cups

December 14, 2018December 14, 2018Leave a comment

That nibbly time of year is approaching when I find myself missing those little dainty ‘croustades’ that I used to buy and fill with delicious concoctions in the days before I was gluten free. I’ve been wracking my brains for an alternative and realised I could make little containers with slices of courgette. Continue reading →

Three pea salad with fresh mint and roasted hazelnuts

I made this the other night to accompany some (home-cured) duck prosciutto. The duck was good but the salad took all the praise, so I thought I’d blog it in its own right. Continue reading →

I invited friends for a casual supper last week and found myself at the last minute wishing I’d thought ahead to make some nibbles to get the evening started. Continue reading →

Cauliflower, lentil and halloumi salad

April 16, 2018June 29, 2018Leave a comment

This was one of those accidental salads that worked so well I felt duty bound to write it down and share it with you. Therefore, apologies for the photo because, as so often happens, it wasn’t until it was half-eaten that I realised how good it was! Continue reading →

This recipe works just as well for a winter starter as it does for a healthy packed lunch; the quantities in the recipe mean there’s plenty for both. Continue reading →

Halloumi, avocado and strawberry salad

June 13, 2017June 25, 20182 Comments

Inspired by a recent visit to Juliet’s (my favourite Tunbridge Wells café) this salad is the perfect accompaniment to grilled or barbecued meats; tonight it is going to sidle up to a grilled lamb chop from Speaight’s butcher. To me, supper doesn’t get any better than this! However, this salad would also make a delicious and nutritious lunch. Hope you like it as much as we did!

Spicy Mexican Bean and Green Salad

May 26, 2017June 25, 2018Leave a comment

Although this recipe is a little higher in carbs than I normally include  (containing roughly 10g carbs per 100g) a  small portion (c.150g) in an otherwise low carb meal should not threaten ketosis once you are keto-adapted.
