Zucchetti Meatballs
This recipe was one that I first shared as part of my feature in YUM. Gluten Free Magazine for their Italian issue a few months back....and is also a regular on my weekly menu's at home
Is a detox really healthy?
Now although I am not one to promote diets or labelled eating patterns, I personally do a detox every year and actually look forward to it after Winter because it is honestly like a natural version of a berroca, red bull and expresso martini all mixed into one...you really do feel that energised and amazing afterwards (note: afterwards :P).
Coconut Baked Fish with Crunchy Kale Salad
With this meal here I think the salad is just as, or even more delicious than the fish and it is my version of Changs Noodle Salad (everyone knows someone that always bring the Changs Noodle Salad to the BBQ right?)
Coconut, Almond & Buckini Chocolate
Cacao really is amazing! Super high in anti-oxidants, a great source of magnesium and also a source of tryptophan which is needed to produce our happy hormone serotonin. I've combined it here to make a chocolate and it's seriously easy so everyone really should try making their own chocolate
Fish Curry
Fish is such an undervalued food by most people and a lot of clients I see do not include enough of it in their diets. I know it can be expensive and a lot of people are not keen on the 'fishy' smell or texture but I find this curry always tend to win people over.
My Top 20 Snacks to Say Goodbye to Sweetness
Even using sugar substitutes or small amounts of natural sweeteners can have your body still craving for sweetness so I have put together a list of 20 snacks that are sweet free and isn't your boring old vegetable sticks or a handful of nuts.
Red Lentil & Spinach Dhal
Dhal is such a hearty, warming and nourishing meal and is something I always crave during the winter. I thought I would share it with you all because even though we're nearly past winter, the temperature certainly doesn't suggest so!
Pumpkin, Spinach and Feta Muffins
Being gluten free it's hard to find muffins that are still moist, filling and delicious..but these are just that! They're a great snack and can even be a good option for breakfast paired with a green juice or an almond chai.
Sugar - give it to me straight!
Ok, I’m going to be straight up with you here and hopefully give you everything you need to know about sugar in the one article - because it is not something we should be beating around the bush with!
Green Tea, Salmon and Miso Soup
This is my idea of heaven. Especially seeing Melbourne has decided to turn up the winter dial all of a sudden! Salmon is a fantastic source of omega-3 fatty acids and if you find little bones in yours, don't stress, they provide you with calcium so I suggest you gobble them up. Sea weed is so underrated in my eyes and gives you plenty of Vitamin A, C, calcium and antioxidants as well as providing a great source of iodine. Edamame beans are high in protein and fibre and we have bok choy, mushrooms and soba noodles to boost the fibre content even further. Warming, nourishing and super delicious!
