Recipe: Beef stew booster

Posted by: jacqueline in: Can of Tomatoes | Healthy Eating | Main Meals | Recipes

My uncle told me about this recipe, and I’m including it because, along with other gorgeous ingredients, it contains turmeric. I am a turmeric virgin, but really want to learn more about what dishes to add it to. This is not a typical turmeric-fuelled recipe, but it is lovely.
It’s called The Barge Casserole because my [...]

What’s your miracle cure?

Posted by: peter in: Healthy Eating

I’ve been a bit of a wreck lately. I’ve no idea why I’m confessing this all to the nation, but I’ve been home alone for the past few weeks and eating really unhealthily. I became addicted to Burdock’s, I ate a packet of biscuits for my dinner, and I once woke up with a chocolate [...]

It was so warm on Monday morning that I had my morning cup of tea in the sun and it was bliss. It has been such a long cold winter, I felt like a cave creature that had just crawled out of the darkness - pasty and squinty-eyed in the bright pure sun. I know [...]

Recipe: Sweet celery salad

Posted by: jacqueline in: Healthy Eating | Recipes | Starters, Salads & Soups

At the weekend, my partner and I catered for a friend’s christening. We had the camera ready to fondly take pictures of our food, and exclaim over how great it all looked, but we seriously misjudged our timings. We didn’t have time to lift a camera, we barely had time to breathe - the evening [...]

I’ve never gone down the Weight Watchers route. Some of my friends, male and female, say it’s the only thing that works for them; I don’t really have an opinion one way or the other.
However, over the weekend a good friend of mine called over, laden down with Weight Watchers snacks. I was cajoled into [...]

Jacqueline posted last week about her Pauper’s Pizza: a bit of a coincidence, as I have another quick and easy alternative to pizza to share.  This one is similarly hassle-free to make, and is particularly good if you’re craving pizza but don’t want to be too unhealthy - it’s basically a pizza with a tortilla [...]

Posted by: jean in: Healthy Eating

…are teenage girls, according to recent UK government research.  This does not come as the slightest bit of a surprise to me, having once been a teenage girl myself.  Being a teenager is a pretty horrible experience, as Caitlin Moran argues in this hilarious piece in the London Times, and requires a fair bit of [...]

For the month of January, The Sunday Times has been offering up a ten-point plan to a better you in the style section. A plan that encourages you to ‘Learn to relax’, ‘Find your purpose’, ‘Revel in strong moments’ and ‘Boost your chi factor’.
When reading it, I kind of zoned out and couldn’t help feel [...]

Curative Foods

Posted by: rercy in: Healthy Eating

I have a nasty cold at the moment. I could feel it coming on all last week but I had to babysit four of my sisters children for the weekend so I wouldn’t allow myself to be sick. Now I feel like rubbish and can’t even think straight.
Well, it turns out that all of the [...]
