I’m a massive advocate of protein being included with every meal, and a well-balanced protein smoothie is a great way to “break fast” for the first meal of the day. Protein plays a large role in keeping our blood sugar balanced and decreasing inflammation. Getting enough protein evenly dispersed throughout the day is an important foundation of good health and …
Greek Salad is synonymous with spoonfuls of sun-kissed tomatoes, cucumbers, and riots of red onion and capsicum colour, all brimming with vitamins, phytochemicals and flavour to boot. The salmon? Ah, it’s a magic piece of the puzzle 🧩 It’s rich in Omega-3 fatty acids which, along with helping us absorb the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, also help …
Turmeric lattes have had a resurgence of late, offered these days in plenty of urban hippies cafes (what a good thing!).
Turmeric latte mixes are also easy to pick up for home from your local health store or on-trend supermarket. I love how easy these mixes make putting together a golden latte at home. But is it a habit to get into?
It’s a shame people can’t immediately taste this fish dish because honestly it tastes way better than it looks. It’s really, really good Mum. You can make that again loads. One of my all time favourite soups, definitely! Teenager review Thanks to my eldest son and his honest summary of my version of Fish Stew, this dish has become a …
Kitchari is a beautifully nourishing dish that is both cleansing and easy to digest. Kitchari – catchy name don’t you think? – means mixture, in this case of two grains.

A messy cook is a happy cook. Alrighty, truth be told I totally made that quote up! I’m sure neat and tidy cooks, organised cooks, dancing cooks and even first time cooks are also truly joyful souls, so us messy ones can’t own ALL the happy stakes. There’s one type of messy that every cook should claim from beginner to …
Who can resist a chocolate Christmas ball once the Festive Season is in full swing? And what if they’re gluten-free, dairy-free, refined-sugar free and vegan to keep healthy options on a roll? These blissful chocolate balls tick all the boxes, but more importantly taste so delicious that you’ll be keen to make them any time of the year for a …
You all know I love a good salad, and that I’m obsessed (in a good nerdy nutritionist way!) with keeping our microbiota in balance. This salad ticks ALL the boxes! Oh my gutness, this salad delivers with nutritional clout and loads of flavour. SPA salad is the nickname I’ve fondly given this recipe. Not just for the obvious acronym, but …
Ciambotta is one of my favourite Italian soups, a delicious stew which encourages the cook to include whatever you’ve got on hand. I’ve taken this soup a step further with a couple of fast-tracked ingredients so that the prep for this can be sorted quicker than you can choose your next Netflix series. Ready set go right? And if you …
No salad deserves to be boring, and this tabbouleh salad is a great example of a feel-good-and-eat-it dish with sassy character, flavour and punch.
