Enzymes, Vitamins and Minerals
Fruit and vegetables are brimming over with fibre, vital enzymes, vitamins and minerals - all of which are vital for our good health. A healthy diet will give your skin and hair a glow and your eyes a sparkle : great reasons to make more of your greens.

Five A Day
We are all being told to eat five fruits and vegetables every day. Sometimes this can be hard especially if you are not fond of your fruit and veg. Using our fruit and vegetable recipes are an excellent way to achieve this. Make a smoothie for breakfast, a chicken salad for lunch, and apple pie made with fresh apples for dessert. Does this sound good to you?

Cooking and Baking
Have you tried making a moist banana cake recipe or the world's best carrot cake - not only healthy but yummy? Have you tried cabbage rolls or roasted asparagus or homemade mushroom soup recipes? Find out how to cook mushrooms and spinach or how to pickle mangoes. Cooking with fruit and vegetables is anything but boring.

Working Mums
A lot of mums are working today but this doesn't mean that your child needs to live out of a packet or a jar. Our home-made fruit and vegetable recipes are easy and a lot of them are very quick. Make recipes in batches and freeze them, so they are easily available.

Home Cooking
If you cook your own food you know exactly what has gone into it and you know how fresh and healthy it is. A lot of shop bought foods are full of chemicals and colourings which make children in particular hyper and sometime ill. Babies and young children grow at such a rate that they need a diet which is rich in nutrients and vitamins.

I love easy to make meals, cakes and desserts and I love fruit and vegetables which is why I have tried to find simple recipes which are easy to follow, and are ones that I enjoy making myself.

Fruit and vegetables are at the core of many recipes, many of which are healthy and some which are just wickedly deliciously unhealthy.

The next time you hear the words, "What's for dinner" it won't be hard to answer. Go on, make cooking a pleasure and not a chore with our healthy fruit and vegetable recipes.

Take a look at some of our recipes:

Cauliflower Cheese - A cauliflower cheese recipe is one of the oldest and easiest meals to cook. You are going to love this very simple dish which can be made either as a meal in itself or as a side dish

Fruit Salad Ideas - Our fruit salad are really just recipes to get you started. Most fruits are low in calories although you should be careful with bananas, avocados and mangos as they tend to be a bit higher in the calorie count.

Grilled Asparagus - Mrs Beaton had about 14 recipes altogether on asparagus. They were a much loved vegetable in the Victorian age even though it was considered a luxury.

Carrot Cake - Our healthy carrot cake recipe is made from traditional ingredients using less fat along with wholemeal flour which gives this cake a moist nutty and tasty flavour

Chocolate Strawberries - Strawberries and chocolate make the perfect combination. An exciting way to eat fruit. Make them for barbeques, picnics, summer treats, desserts, cocktails or anytime you like.
