These power cookies are the perfect grab-and-go breakfast, on-the-run snack, or post-workout nosh. This recipe makes a lot of large cookies, but fear not, they freeze beautifully. This means they’ll be close at hand when a cookie craving strikes.

Food is medicine. It all starts here. We create recipes with functional, whole organic ingredients that nourish your body and feed your soul. 

Food

These satisfying Green Pea Poppers are perfect any time of day. Green peas are one hard-working legume. They’re loaded with vitamins, high in fibre, and a good source of protein.

Any of these quick dips would be great on their own. However, put them together as one layered dip, and you have something that is way more than the sum of its parts.

Socca is a savoury chickpea pancake enjoyed as a street food snack in Nice, France. Here we have repurposed it as a protein-rich pizza base. You could choose to top it like a classic pizza, but this salad pizza makes eating your greens a whole lot more interesting.

Why not freshen up your recipe repertoire (and get a nutritional boost!) by incorporating some matcha green tea into your next meal?

Easily rivalling any coffee house concoction, this thirst-quenching cucumber cooler makes the perfect afternoon pick-me-up.

This salad is a great way to welcome spring. Cha soba are buckwheat noodles that have matcha green tea added to them. They can be easily sourced next to the regular soba noodles in the Asian section of some grocery stores.

These pretty banana muffins are a great on-the-go breakfast or midday snack. The spottier and browner the bananas, the better for this recipe. Very ripe bananas have a stronger banana taste, making for a tastier muffin.

For lovers of sushi, this sushi bowl is a great way to enjoy your favourite Japanese flavours at home. Sushi-grade seafood can be found frozen in Asian grocery stores.

With international breakfast recipes ranging from muesli to shakshuka, you can explore the world without changing out of your pyjamas.
