**UPDATE** The competition is now closed and the winner was drawn fairly (live on Snapchat) and randomly using a random name picker tool. Congratulations @dromvittran and thanks so much for the interest everyone! I wish I could give you all a place on the program. For those who are interested in joining this round, it’s…

CHUNKY MONKEY BANANA BREAD GRANOLA by I Quit Sugar (+ a Healthy Breakfast Cookbook review from a veggie perspective)
Prior to Oliver’s arrival, I was given a copy of the Healthy Breakfast Cookbook by I Quit Sugar and had the opportunity to test some of the recipes (and do a little make-ahead meal prepping too before I headed for the maternity ward!). With the next round of the 8-Week Program about to kick off (registrations close in just a few…
WORLD’S EASIEST 3-INGREDIENT PLANT-BASED CAESAR DRESSING
As it says on the proverbial tin, I do believe this is the easiest alternative to a Caesar dressing you will find. I posted it on Instagram a long time ago, but pointing people to a recipe on my blog is far more convenient than directing them to “look way back in my Instagram gallery…
I QUIT SUGAR 8-WEEK PROGRAM, ROUND 3 (Clean Week and beyond in review)
It has now been a few weeks since the last round (my third) of the I Quit Sugar 8-Week Program wrapped up, and although there where similarities between this round and previous ones I have participated in, on a personal note, some new things certainly came to light. As always, the recipes were wonderful and the…
I QUIT SUGAR 8-WEEK PROGRAM, ROUND 3 (the first 3 weeks in review)
This is my third time around, doing sugar-free the IQS way. As always, it’s a fascinating (and delicious) process. And already significant health-related revelations have come to light, which I will delve into later. But I’ll start with the food. No doubt the best place to start… WHAT I HAVE BEEN EATING Week 1 arrived and the program kicked off with…
I QUIT SUGAR… AGAIN! (IQS 8-Week Program, weeks 3 – 8 in review)
Hello friends! I have been meaning to post a review of my last round of the IQS 8-Week Program for a couple of weeks now, so before this truly becomes “old news”, let’s get right down to the nuts and bolts of it, shall we? WHAT I ATE Week 3 kicked off and, despite being at the…
I QUIT SUGAR… AGAIN! (IQS 8-Week Program, weeks 1 & 2 in review)
Right at the very last minute, literally a day before the registrations closed for the new round of the I Quit Sugar 8-Week Program, I found myself not only signed up, but appointed an IQS Ambassador* by the IQS team! I hardly ever check personal mail at work (and never Facebook), but I happened to log in…
MY BIG NEWS & THE CONTINUATION OF THE SUGAR-FREE JOURNEY (and the gratitude)
What a week it’s been! My Cupcake became an 18 month-old today. This combined with seeing her through her first week ever at nursery school and my little L having some medical (and other) issues, makes for one super-emotional Miss Marzipan. And the start of a new cycle has of course amplified every feeling tenfold 😛 . But…
I QUIT SUGAR 8-WEEK PROGRAM (weeks 7 to 8 in review)
And so, the IQS 8-week program has officially come to an end. :'( *blub blub* It hasn’t stopped me from whipping up Easy Gado Gado for dinner tonight, nor treating myself to a Zucchini Brownie for afternoon tea. Yes, it seems that 48 hours post-program, I have stuck with sugar-free, despite being technically “off the hook” now. And…
SPARKLING ICED GREEN TEA INFUSED WITH MINT, LIME & BLUEBERRIES (sugar-free refreshment!)
On this – the hottest* day I have experienced in Stockholm during 2014 – I spontaneously threw together a refreshing iced tea drink that manages to combine some of my favourite things; sparkling water (I could drink litres!), green tea, ice, blueberries, mint and lime. An easy-to-make, beautiful drink that promotes beauty from the inside out! SPARKLING ICED GREEN…
