I often get asked (generally by older individuals) what minimalism is and why I bother striving to live in this way and giving up on having stuff which could make me happy. The truth is although many people believe being a minimalist means owning almost nothing; sitting in an empty home, with barren walls and empty cupboard, what minimalism really means is to only own things that actually make you happy and make your life easier.
I don’t know if everyone would classify this as a salad but I do! It’s delicious cold or hot and lasts for days in the fridge. It’s affordable but a little bit luxurious, it’s easy and it’s filling.

Anyone else enjoy a sweet snack every now and then? These cashew stuffed dates dipped in chocolate are the ultimate indulgence and they’re vegan too! Easily stored in the freezer or fridge, these stuffed dates will be your go to for that after dinner sugar hit or just because. We’ve picked cashew butter but you can definitely mix it up and add almond butter or peanut butter - whatever you have in the cupboards is fine! And if chocolate isn’t your thing, don’t add it or maybe dip half in, the choice is really up to you.
Who doesn’t love a tortilla? They’re super easy to make, they delicious, cost effective and so versatile! The only downside to modern tortilla is that it usually comes wrapped in single use plastic - not ideal. We thought we’d share our favourite tortilla recipe to help reduce some of plastic out there AND everything taste more delicious when you make it yourself! These are great as wraps, cut into strips served with hummus and guacamole - you could even use it as a pizza base!
