Grab the grapes! These are the tastiest ways to eat them

  • Post published:March 7, 2017

That satisfying pop when you bite into an ice-cold grape or that gentle sip of red you take after a long working week, there’s something pretty special about these little round fruit that beautifully dots our country’s vineyards. But besides it’s aesthetics and ability to be turned into a beloved alcoholic beverage, we want to explore the wonderful ways in which we can cook with it. So, get your grapes and we’ll meet in the kitchen!

Low carb waffles with caramelised banana and fresh strawberries with Caralishious

Caralishious says: ‘One thing that I often miss on this healthy journey of mine is none other than the good old waffle. There is just something about a hearty crisp waffle that really gets my taste-buds worked up…even the thought of a waffle can trigger cravings second to none. And so off to the kitchen I went to work on a healthy waffle recipe (obviously…wink wink). What makes my heart sing even more is that this particular recipe is low carb too. Such a win! In this recipe I do use caramelized bananas as a topping which may increase the carb content, so for those of you who are watching your carbs, you can leave out the banana and just use the nut butter and strawberries as your main toppings. I hope you love this one as much as I do.’
