Energy balls, bliss balls, apricot balls, whatever you want to call them, are delicious little things that are perfect for lunch boxes and a quick snack. My energy balls contain hemp seeds which have a rich nutrition profile with high levels of antioxidants, fatty acids, minerals, and vitamins. They also contain oats, chia seeds, unsweetened coconut, dried…

Black Sticky Rice with Caramelised Coconut and Mango
Black sticky rice with caramelised coconut and mango is our favourite dessert, but I hear it is most often eaten at breakfast in Thailand. I could definitely get on board with that! On our recent visit to Thailand, H and I ate this everyday – sometimes twice a day! It’s the perfect balance of sweet…
Homemade Golden Rough Chocolate – healthy, sugar-free, vegan!
Well Easter has come and gone and I got away with it for another year. H still doesn’t like chocolate! He wanted a kinder surprise bunny and a big kinder surprise egg – its all about the toy inside obviously! He was a happy boy but had no interest in the chocolate. I…
Coconut Chia Seed Pudding
Chia seed pudding is one of the first recipes I posted on this blog. H and I both love it, and I love the convenience of it when served for breakfast. I always make it the night before and it is ready to go in the morning. It is so easy to make and requires…
Macadamia Bonbons with Chocolate Toffee

Healthy Avocado Lime Ice Cream
I have two weaknesses when it comes to food, chocolate and ice cream. I often enjoy a bowl of ice cream of an evening, and up until recently I would serve myself ice cream and H natural yoghurt – sneaky but brilliant right :) But at 2.5 years old, H is now totally on to me….
Strawberry and Coconut Muesli Squares
These strawberry and coconut muesli bars are a real winner. They are super easy to make and always work out beautifully. I have used strawberries because there seems to be an abundance of them in Australia at the moment, they are super cheap, super tasty and we can’t get enough of them. You can substitute what’s in…
Coconut and Puffed Amaranth Muesli Squares
Puffed amaranth is an ingredient that I stumbled upon at my local health food store recently and I love it. It is great to add to dishes like muesli bars and on your breakfast. I love to add it to yoghurt. It sort of melts into it and make it very fluffy. I have…
Coconut covered Bananas
It doesn’t get much simpler than this – Banana dipped in lemon juice and tossed in coconut. A nice easy snack for the little ones – it also makes it easy for them to grip.
