Happy Pancake Tuesday xx

Oat pancakes with pear for pancake Tuesday
by Dorcas Barry

Quite a few years ago, I discovered that I could no longer eat wheat. For someone who not only has a sweet tooth but who also loves to bake, this felt like a disaster. But, bit by bit over the years I have sourced ingredients and recipes, tested lots of different ways of cooking with these ingredients and am so delighted that I can now still enjoy equally delicious cakes, biscuits and especially pancakes. Pancakes are special, the weekend breakfast that everyone shares together, the arguments for the…

Roast Pesto Cod with Chorizo and Tomatoes

Roast Pesto Cod with Chorizo and Tomatoes

This is a quick and easy family dish. The cod can be easily replaced with any white chunky fish and you can choose any selection of tomatoes.

My favourite is a mix of cherry or vine tomatoes whole, mixed with some plum tomatoes cut into quarters.

The chorizo is used as a background flavouring.

Try to get it without preservatives or additives.

To make this dish even more convenient, you could also use good-quality frozen cod fillets. In this case, the cooking time would need to be extended by 10 minutes approximately.…

Coconut Oil health benefits

17 February 2012 @ 9:02 am |

Coconut contains many health benefits and is a nutritious source of meat, milk juice and oil. For generations it has been effectively used to feed, fuel and cure a large percentage of the world’s population, especially in the Asian and Pacific countries.

While coconut possesses many health benefits due to its fiber, vitamins and nutritional content, it is the oil that makes it a truly remarkable food and medicine.

Coconut oil used to be regarded as bad oil, high in saturated fat and therefore not good for our diet. But recent studies have shown that the coconut oil is…

Love her or loathe her, as she starts her MDNA tour later this year with a Dublin bound date, there’s no escaping the fact that Madonna is in the best shape of her life. Toned, healthy and glowing, with not a bingo-wing in sight. So how does the best looking mum on the block keep herself looking so great?
Her tipple of choice is now a good pint of stout in a country pub. In a recent interview she claims, ‘it’s really important to me that I have a normal life and I do things that everyone else…

Going CocoLoco with Jennifer Aniston

13 February 2012 @ 6:08 pm |

When Jennifer Aniston was spotted with a shopping trolley full of coconut oil, the manufacturers of this little-used fat must have jumped for joy. Coconut oil has had a bad press because of its high saturated-fat content, but devotees claim it is misunderstood. It is heart-healthy and fantastic for weight loss, they say, because it speeds up the metabolism. It is also cholesterol-free and – according to some of the wilder proponents – can cure anything from candida to cancer. The coconut is being touted as the health food of 2008, but a closer look at the science…

Go Nutz about Nuts

7 February 2012 @ 8:08 am |

Don’t worry about weight gain; you can go nuts with nuts

Some people avoid nuts because they think of them as fattening. But while it may not be your best idea to shovel in cheap, heavily salted peanuts while knocking back a beer at the local bar, adding organic nuts into what you eat provides great health benefits. Eating nuts can actually help you lose weight because they are so filling.

The more I dig down into what foods are good for us and how great different foods are, the more I realise why it is so good to…

Colds and Remedies by Oliver McCabe

COLDS and REMEDIES by Oliver McCabe
Colds are caused by any of more than two hundred viruses that infect the upper respiratory tract. Colds are spread through the air, such as by sneezing or coughing, or by contact with a contaminated object. In response to an invasion by a cold virus, the membranes that line the nose and the throat become swollen and start producing additional mucus.
The result are symptoms such as congestion, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, sore throat, fatigue, loss of appetite and a general feeling of nausea, all of which are your body’s way…
