This week’s recipe, curried parsnip soup, is a bit of a special one. Not just because it’s tasty and nutritious – and it is – but because it was personally recommended to us by Lorraine Shaw, two-time Olympian – and winner of the Commonwealth Games. We always want to learn …

Yogurt Parfait When it comes to weight loss recipes, different people need different things. And when it comes to nutritious breakfasts, well, each to their own. We’re going for the yogurt parfait. Or yoghurt parfait, if you prefer. Some people like my brother can eat the same thing day in, …

When we’re testing out recipes, there are three ways that a recipe (like these almond flour muffins) is guaranteed to catch our attention. 1 – taste 2- speed and/or ease 3 – nutritional health benefits In fact, these three criteria are a huge part of Hurry The Food Up. Those, …

We’re huge fans of breakfast. We’re also huge fans of Patrick Lange, the current IRONMAN World Champion. Yep, one of the greatest athletes of all time – and also happens to be vegetarian. This recipe is our tribute to him. Who said vegetarians can’t be healthy? For those of you …

Ah dates. That flurry of excitement, of expectation. The buzz of the unknown, and the possibilities still to come. The…oh wait. Well, date smoothies are still exciting! Right?

Pear soup with blue cheese is undoubtedly a niche recipe. If you don’t like blue cheese, then you probably won’t enjoy this recipe. If you do like blue cheese then there’s a good chance this pear soup will blow you away. Pear and blue cheese has long been known as …

Yess!! It’s that time of year. I get to write about Christmas and pancakes – two of my favourite things. Don’t worry if you’re reading this and it’s not Christmas, gingerbread pancakes rock at any time of the year. You’ll just have to ignore reindeer references, jolly Christmas puns and …

Grapes yes, roses no. I’ll give you that. But I’ll also assume you caught the play of words and didn’t expect any roses in this overnight oats recipe. Plus, any chance we get to reference one of our favourite rock or metal bands, we’ll take it 😉 This is a …

Woohoo! December is here. Which means Howie and Kat officially (we made a deal) have to let me post as many Christmas recipes as I want! So here we are. Although I’m usually a savoury man, a little sweetness and light never hurt anyone – that’s why I’m starting with …

URRGH. If you’re reading this post then you probably know what a hangover feels like. Mouth like the inside of a boot, the rolling stomach, the banging headache. All you wanna do is pass out again. Hangovers are obviously caused by excessive drinking, something that tends to happen fairly often …

Here’s what’s happening: your cooking skills leave a lot to be desired, you’re knackered after a long shift and your date has just text you to say they’re on their way round. You’ve already botched the starter, slaughtered the main course and are just beginning to lose all hope of …
