I love food & cooking & my favourite thing to do is find new places to eat. The thing is, I want to eat food that not only tastes delicious but is easy to eat & nutritious too. There are so many healthy ingredients that we have access to now but are not used in traditional recipes. I would love to have the expertise & knowledge to tweak these recipes & make yummy food that you could enjoy without feeling guilty. If I won Cheffactor I could do this so please, please pick me!!

My sister & I have been in search of the perfect brownie for a while now: a dense, moist, melt-in-the-mouth slab of fudgy goodness strewn with chunks of dark chocolate & crunchy walnut pieces- NOT DRY & NOT CAKEY! When I found this recipe it sounded so strange I had to try it & everyone really loved them. No-one could believe the secret ingredient but the beetroot gives the brownies such a great texture & because I use wholemeal spelt flour they are healthier than your average brownie too! :)
