Fish Curry
My lovely friend Sarah came round for dinner the other night with her hubby and as I know they both like curry, I decided to make my Fish Curry for them, really easy – chuck in dish that looks and smells like you have spent ages in the kitchen slaving over a hot stove for hours, when in fact it is so quick and easy – my type of food! I also like this because it is a great way to serve fish to…

Yoga Journal; reaching a defining moment
Yoga Journal; reaching a defining moment
My yoga journey started, well really, with my Mum doing various ‘poses’ or ‘asanas’ at home when I was about 5 upwards. I am sure she went to yoga classes but we are talking about 46 years ago so I don’t really remember it all that clearly! My fab Mum is now 83 years old and does her own version of a sun salutation every morning!
Years of playing hockey, running marathons, half marathons,…

Sun Salutation B; Surya Namaskara B
Sun Salutation B; Surya Namaskara B
There are a couple of different Sun Salutations, this one is Sun Salutation B; so depending on your teacher you may get to try a few different variations. I quite like warrior poses so I like this one and tend to adapt it by adding in the other warriors. This is a great place to start though if you are new to Yoga. Try it everyday – repeating it maybe 3 times if you have time. Don’t worry if you…

So starting on the 1st of the month I will be taking on one of my own Actively Nourish Multi Sport Challenges.

Stuffed Chicken Breast with Iberico Ham & Brie
Stuffed Chicken Breast with Iberico Ham & Brie
I keep this dish as an essential, mainly because it is so versatile so I will generally have a couple of these chicken breasts in my freezer to have with a salad for either lunch or dinner. If you are not a brie fan you can leave it out and still have great flavours.
These chicken breasts are great cold – with a salad for the next couple of days, or try cooking a couple of extra breasts and…

Sun Salutation: Surya Namaskara (A)
Sun Salutation: Surya Namaskara (A)
Those of you who follow me on Instagram will know that I have only recently got passionate about practicing yoga. To be honest a few years ago I would have pooh poohed the idea of me practicing yoga in any form. I didn’t feel it would challenge me enough, nor would it help me lose or maintain my weight and tone up. How wrong can someone be. I apologise to all those who have tried to get me to do…

Anyone who has come to stay with me recently in Mahon will know that this is a firm favourite at lunch time. Egg, bacon with asparagus and some dijon dressing is a light and easy lunch. For the men I usually add a corner of a fresh baguette so they don’t complain about it being a salad. Believe me you don’t need it, the protein will fill you up. In the picture I have made it on a side plate, I…

Roasted Broccoli & Rice Salad, perfect side for a summer BBQ
I found this great, easy recipe recently in the free Tesco book for Roasted Broccoli with Rice a vibrant, vegan-friendly salad. Roasted with chilli, garlic and spring onions for a deliciously fragrant finish, tossed with wild rice and an aromatic miso dressing and sprinkled with sesame seeds for added crunch, it works as wonderfully as a main as it does part of a summer spread.
