Hello! My name is Aoife and I am a 22 year old medical student from Ireland. I have always had an immense interest in food however it was only during my teenage years that I developed an interest in how the foods we eat impact on our overall wellbeing and health. I decided to overhaul my diet; out went all processed foods devoid of nutrition as well as refined sugar and in their place came nutrient rich natural wholefoods. Before long my energy levels were elevated and my general sense of wellbeing greatly improved; I have never looked back since. My diet is not perfect nor completely plant based (I have a love affair with salmon!) but I have found what works for me.  All the recipes are free from many common allergies such as dairy, gluten and wheat as well as refined sugar because I wanted recipes that everyone could use. This blog is about including a wide variety of nutrient rich foods not excluding foods. Whether you are a plant based eater, flexitarian or just want to eat more healthily I hope that in this blog you will find recipes that inspire and promote a healthy lifestyle.
