Store Cupboard Heroes

I’m all about a quick lunch or an easy dinner. And I’m not going to lie, there are still times when I go all ‘guilty pleasure’ on the family and bust out the best (or possibly worst) of my freezer … and offer up nothing more creative or nutritious than fish fingers, chips and beans […]

Track & Field : Gore-Tex Sneaks to Live & Dry by

Whether you’re dodging puddles on a pavement, striding your way across dew-drenched grass or navigating full on ditches and dikes, a pair of truly waterproof sneaks is always a good investment. Gore-Tex and their ‘Guaranteed to Keep you Dry®’ promise is really the only tech you can count on, so say goodbye soggy socks and […]

THE WINTER EDIT 2

The Winter Edit

Training outdoors in the winter is a time when you’re going to require a solid amount of tech from you kit. The air temp might be chilly but once that BPM and body temperature starts to rise, you’re going to need ultra breathable, quick dry, sweat wicking wonders to help fend off the freeze and […]

Best Free Fitness Apps

Free workouts are ten a penny on You Tube, but what if you’re new to fitness or just aren’t sure what’s the right workout for you?

Chicken Curry

Chicken & Spinach Curry

This has what looks like quite a lengthy list of spices but I assure you, you will have most of them lurking in somewhere in that cupboard of yours, they’re just the sort of things you buy once and then never use again … so don’t look at the sell by date just get them […]

Broccoli tabbouleh

Jamies Lentil Soup

Store Cupboard Lentil Soup

Less of a soup and more of a meal in a bowl.  This one is packed full of greatness. You’ve got cannellini beans (an ace source of antioxidants, protein, iron, fibre and vitamin K) and lentil (packing in more protein and more fibre as well as folate, iron and vitamins B1 and B6) as well […]

chetna dal

Spiced Red Lentil & Spinach Soup

This says it’s a soup but I’d say it was more like a Dahl … either way, it’s very quick and easy supper and almost all the ingredients will come from your store cupboard. It’s also a highly customisable recipe, you can add in some chicken for additional protein, finish it off with fresh green chillis […]

Italian Chicken & Beans

This is a really easy one pot dish (YAAASSSS!) that’s quite simply delicious. Tasty and nutritious on so many levels.   Sweet roasted tomatoes, garlic with the contrast of the salty, crispy prosciutto all rounded off with fragrant basil. This one wins with each and every member of my family, it’s been in my repertoire […]
