Beetroot Chippies

This recipe is one of my new favourites. Although beware. The beetroot will stain your hands something shocking. There are a gazillion things worse than flaunting pink-tinged flesh on your palms. I figure it’s a small price to pay.

Spectacular Soul Saturday: Megan Osbourne

You know when you hardly know someone, yet get the vibe that they are a ‘good egg’? That’s Megan. We met at the 2015 Wellness Summit and even though we only spoke a few brief times, I was overwhelmed by Megan’s genuine warmth and humble glow.

Nifty Banana Muffins

I turned 19 yesterday (did I MENTION I have to walk with a cane now – jokes)

It was my first birthday on GAPS and as I’m still not vining with fruits or sugars (or even too many nuts). Raw cake wasn’t an option this year.  I genuinely didn’t mind. I was too busy cooking up delicious cauliflower mash/onion soup (leftover  mash blended with sautéed red onion, garlic, broth , tallow and pink salt) and GAPS muffins.

Let’s Support Pete

Howdy friend. You’ve stumbled across an old article. I believe in real food and support anyone – celebrity or otherwise – in their advocacy of nutritional medicine. This doesn’t mean that I support all of the views they express on their own platforms.

My friend Kim recently brought up something that I’ve been thinking about for a while now. Chef Pete Evans is under constant scrutiny from the media. Labelled as ‘arrogant’, ‘extreme’, ‘un-educated’ and some go as far as to say, ‘dangerous’.

Spectacular Soul Saturday: Kimi Hill

This week I’d like to share the insights of blogger Kimi Hill, author of www.sunandmoon.me. I don’t know Kimi personally, but she approached me after hearing my interview on Up for a Chat and asked me to do an interview for her website.

I decided to return the interview favour and here we are. Kimi is a driven young lady with a beautifully sensitive and creative streak.

Meet Kimi …

Health isn’t a “trend”

Does it bother anyone else out there that health, wellness, well-being, nutrition, mindfulness, Paleo, vegan, GAPS, gluten-free, sugar-free, (and all the other common buzz words etc.) have become a trend? Or is it just me?

Don’t get me wrong. The real food movement is exciting! People getting excited about fruits and veggies is encouraging! The public is starting to explore and ask questions. I am thrilled about this! In fact, health being ‘trendy’ has many, many advantages.

Rebecca’s broth

Last Thursday I was lucky enough to be cooked a delicious GAPS friendly meal by my friend Rebecca. She did a slow cooked beef roast with steamed veggies (cauliflower, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans) and roasted baby dutch carrots and butternut pumpkin. It was so special to be able to go somewhere for dinner and not have to take my own food. Thanks girl, I really appreciate it.
