Breakfast in bed on Mother’s day? Absolutely! A delightfully simple smoothie bowl which is blood sugar friendly and loaded with antioxidants and good fats. It’s my favourite breakfast for a lazy start and perfect for a Mother’s Day “stay in bed till late” type of morning… maybe followed by a few hours in the spa afterwards.

By Vanya Maksimova, CNM Vegan Natural Chef student:
"I have enjoyed all the classes on the Vegan Natural Chef course so far but the digestive/blood sugar balance therapeutic menu class I've enjoyed the most. My favourite thing about the course is being encouraged from everyone and being given an opportunity to express myself through cooking. We all lift each other up and that's so wonderful 🙂 When I finish the course I'm curating my own retreats for women focused on balancing hormones, restoring and connecting with our inner energy through nutrition, dance and self-care rituals."Are you interested in healthy cooking?
