One of my favourite countries is France. From my time living there as a young girl to travels on a regular basis, the country is one of physical beauty, great people and the food culture is unique.

These Festive Beaujolais Poached Pears are a lovely dessert for parties or any special occasion. They are vegan, lower calorie and gluten-free and they are suitable for many people. The crystallized ginger adds deeper flavours and heat to this traditional dessert.
This Banana Bread is a recipe that my mother typed for me and I have used so much. I wanted to try an eggless version, so the secret ingredient is silken tofu instead of eggs. You can make it added sugar free, dropping many calories but still enjoying a sweet treat. The overripe bananas give it sweetness and the vinegar, milk and yoghurt are a substitute for buttermilk . I have since made many updates to it and improved the calories, carb count and saturated fat profile, but it remains true to its original heritage.
I have never been very good at biscuits. When I saw this Tomato Cobbler with Distinctive Biscuits recipe, I jumped at the chance to try my luck once again. This one worked and it tastes great. I made some updates to it to decrease calories, sugars and saturated fats. And I added some wonderful tastes to the tomato cobbler. What are baked tomatoes without shallots and garlic? Try this one, you will love it.
My Summer Lemonade Cookies are not only delicious, but also gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian. So go ahead and enjoy these little beauties with a little less guilt.
