Peppermint Hot Chocolate
We are now officially in the festive season and that means comforting and warming drinks and of course chocolate. This lightened up Healthy Peppermint Hot Chocolate has less sugar than most. That hint of peppermint is sure to get you in the festive mood.

If you are looking for something a little bit different to serve on Christmas day, then why not try this Honey Roast Duck. Crispy roasted duck with a little sweetness from the honey and orange and a hint of thyme. The festive season doesn’t have to be all about turkey, and your guests might appreciate the change. This recipe couldn’t be easier, and it’s cooked to perfection thanks to the Thermapen.

Mulled Apple Juice
What could be more festive than a warming mulled drink. Mulled wine and mulled cider are popular at this time of year, but here is our non-alcoholic version. This Mulled Apple Juice is full of the spices of Christmas and will warm you up after a day of Christmas shopping. Perfect for serving up at a party!
Easy Three Bean Curry
This Three Bean Curry is super easy, comforting and made using store cupboard and freezer ingredients. The ultimate kitchen raid meal, so it’s perfect for a healthy meal on a budget. It’s vegan, gluten-free and oh so delicious. What makes this bean curry so easy is the frozen Birds Eye Mexican Bean Mix we used in it – great for busy families.
Mushroom Bolognese
Spaghetti Bolognese is always a family favourite, but this version uses just mushrooms instead of beef to make a vegetarian (it can even be vegan) version of a classic Italian dish. Swapping meaty dishes for vegetarian versions a few times a week can have a huge impact on your health (and environment) and because mushrooms have a real meaty texture, you won’t notice the difference.
Apple Pie Smoothie
Apple season here and this Apple Pie Smoothie is a quick and delicious way to make the most of it. All of the flavours of a comforting apple pie in an easy healthy smoothie for a snack or breakfast on the go. All of the taste of an apple pie, with less of the calories. Kids love this apple smoothie too!
