If you’re a regular around here you may have read one of my previous posts all about eating clean. I love experimenting with healthy foods and trying out nutritious alternatives. Recently I have been on a major chia seed hype! Filmore and Union is all about providing ‘fresh, unprocessed food which is also delicious’. There is a wide selection of gluten free and vegan food with an emphasis on natural eating and feeling healthy. I love their ethos and when I found out there was a restaurant in the beautiful Victoria Quarter in Leeds I went along to try out their menu. Not only is the food incredible but the decor and design is so aesthetically pleasing and photogenic. I found my self unable to stop clicking away on my camera, it is a blogger’s dream!

Hey Guys!

Back on the 14th February, Yoghies, a frozen yoghurt company in Leeds, launched their brand new sparkly venue in The Core shopping centre. I was inverted along to try it out and as a massive fan of Frozen Yoghurt, I was definitely in my element. There were so many incredible toppings and flavours to chose from. I went for a mixture of natural and toffee yoghurt, topped with raspberries, white chocolate and toffee sauce. I also had a layer of granola in the base. Absolutely Scrumptious!

Hi Lovelies!

I hope everyone enjoyed pancake day yesterday! It was the perfect excuse for me to indulge in Nutella and not feel too bad about it. Today is the first day of lent and I thought I would write a post about my plans for this year. The biggest difficulty for me with lent is that my birthday falls in the middle of it. This means that I am always very reluctant to give anything up as I don’t want to have to miss out on birthday cake/chocolate etc! This year I have found a way around this so lets talk lent!

Chia seeds, avocado and eating clean!

Hey Lovelies!

I really enjoy eating clean and experimenting with healthy recipes. There are endless possibilities to be creative with healthy and raw ingredients and I love trying out new things. I haven’t really posted any recipes in ages and this is something I really want to start doing more. I wrote about the two ingredient pancakes way back in October when I first started blogging (you should definitely try these btw) and I would love to start writing about this kind of thing again.

Rize and Shine!

Although I loved waiting for my fortnightly graze subscription, I had concluded that it was overpriced and not a necessary strain on my limited student budget. Consequently, about 18 months ago I cancelled my deliveries. If anyone else has been in this position, you will be used to the frequent emails tempting you to rejoin. Finally, this last week I decided to give the breakfast graze box a go with my half price box.
