Bran Muffins with Carrots and Walnuts
This week on the blog I decided to do an update recipe of my Carrot Bran and Walnut Muffins. It’s such a delicious recipe that is so great for lunchboxes, breakfasts and afternoon treats. If you’re one who can tolerate bran, then I’m sure you’ll love this recipe. It’s sweetened with dates, coconut sugar and raisins and is full of fibre.

My Favorite Wellness with Taryn Recipes
This week on the blog I thought I’d share a couple of my favorite recipes so far. Sifting through archives and reminiscing on past dishes has been quite wonderful, therapeutic in a way. A stroll down memory lane is always good. These recipes range from sweet to savory and are in no particular order. One thing that gathering all these recipes has made me realize is how much time, effort and hard work I’ve poured into this blog. Not that it feels like work at all!
