Simply, mash the avocado and dill together and squeeze half a lemon into it

Warm Honey Cinnamon Oats

Simple breakfast to get you started on a busy day. Oats are a healthy energy boost to have first thing in the morning. All you need is 1 cup of jumbo oats (or rolled) 3/4 cup of a milk of your choice (I use unsweetened almond milk).

Cook on the hob for 10 minutes on medium heat until light and fluffy, pour into a bowl and drizzle in raw honey and cinnamon

I like to mix it all together to spread the sweetness of the honey 🙂

Definitely made me feel cosy this morning! Enjoy!

Quinoa Granola

I love making big batches of Granola for a simple healthy breakfast during the weekdays when I’m limited for time. I wanted to see change it up a bit so I used Quinoa along with the usual oats and the texture was beautiful and crunchy!

Homemade Fig Jam

I always wanted to make my own jam and I love figs so thought I’d start with homemade fig jam! Most jam recipes will contain lots of refined sugars so aren’t actually good for you, so I wanted to make mine without any refined sugar and as healthy as possible

First I bought about 5 Figs

I cut the Figs up into quarters

Mashed the figs up

Poured into a pan then added 1 tablespoon of pure honey

Then simmered with the lid on for about 20 minutes on a low-medium heat

I had mine with a freshly made crepe and greek yoghurt it tasted amazing! It also goes great with nut butter on toast and banana bread 🙂
