Lets’s face facts: everyone loves a crumble! So warming, so comforting, and usually so full of fat and sugar. Not when you make it the Wildcat way! And not only that, my simple, healthy Crumble recipe takes less than 15 minutes to prepare (and much, much less time to devour!)

Recipe: Peanut Butter Truffles
When brand new high protein peanut butter brand Hi-Pro approached me to create a healthy recipe with their fabulous new nut butters I knew I wanted to come up with a nutritious twist on a naughty treat. So my Hi Pro PB Truffles were born! Hi-Pro is different from other nut butters out there because it contains 33% protein per serving so these truffles are protein packed, free from refined sugar and bursting with nutrients. There’s still time to whip up a batch to enjoy with coffee on Christmas morning!

To make the truffles, you will need:
Recipe: Pear and Ginger Crumble
When you think of comforting, warming Winter desserts one dish comes to mind immediately – the traditional British Crumble! Whilst a regular version may pack a huge sugar punch, not to mention all that fat from the butter and custard, I’ve come up with a lighter, nutritious version, best enjoyed snuggled up on the sofa with the cold wind howling outside….
Recipe: the ultimate Autumn comfort food – healthy vegetarian Shepherds Pie
It can’t be helped that as the evenings get shorter and darker and the temperatures start to drop then our thoughts turn to warming, hearty comfort food for Autumn. Sadly for us a lot of these dishes are comforting because of all the delicious yet calorific things they contain – butter, sugar, cream, cheese….. which is why I’ve created this healthy alternative to the traditional Shepherds Pie that is not only lower in fat than the classic dish, but packed full of nutrients and vitamins to help support our immune system through the germ-filled Autumn months.

Recipe: Quinoa Burgers with Cajun spiced “fries”
Burger and chips – surely one of the ultimate cheat meals? Well definitely pretty sinful with the oil, mayo, cheese, sauces….. so how can we give this classic indulgence a healthy makeover? Well I tried – and these are the results – so let me know what you think!

Recipe: Spiced chickpea pancakes with spinach and feta
It seems you can’t open a health and fitness magazine now without seeing a mention of the spice of the moment – turmeric. It has long been a staple in Indian cooking and ayurvedic medicine, and little wonder with it boasting properties such as being an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant, as well as being reported to aid in warding off diabetes, strokes and even cancer. I therefore wanted to create a recipe that used the power of this mighty spice (that wasn’t a curry) so I therefore present to you my chickpea pancakes stuffed with spinach and feta.
