Cinnamon Maple Crackers
This recipe by Anna that she posted on YUMible sounds so simple and quick…and most importantly absolutely delicious! Anna is 26 and from Dublin’s fair city.

Sams oaty coconut cookies
After posting a pic of these oaty coconut cookies on Instagram we got lots of requests for the recipe, so I thought I would share it here. They have become a staple in our house as they are a perfect anytime snack for children (and adults too!).

I find them particularly great for our little 1 year old as they aren’t crumbly, so they can hold up to our busy boy eating with one hand and...

Vegan Quinoa Chocolate Squares
This recipe is a healthy twist on one of my favourite childhood treats – Rice Krispie squares. Instead of Rice Krispies I have used quinoa pops, which is essentially roasted quinoa. Quinoa pops have an unusual yet delicious nutty taste and you can buy them in bulk on Amazon or make your own (I bought mine on Amazon). Quinoa, in general, is a superfood which offers numerous health benefits, such as helping to reduce blood pressure and cholesterol, and it is also a great source of protein. This recipe is vegan-friendly and so simple to make. Caramel Ingredients 1 1/2 cups of Medjool dates (around...
