I think these Mouthwatering Salmon & Grilled Eggplant Burgers really speak for themselves. I mean seriously, just look at them! The day we shot these burgers I purposely made them just before we took a break for lunch. The boys were quite famished by this stage, so it’s very safe to say these burgers did ...
Why is a nutritionist posting a recipe for mulled wine? I’ll tell you why. It’s because life is for living. Life is not about deprivation and an ‘all or nothing approach’ that leaves us resenting a healthy lifestyle. When you want to kick up your heels and let your hair down, then you should ...
Yikes! This is my first YouTube video folks and I am really excited (and nervous if I was to be honest) about sharing this with you. I love being in the kitchen and creating my favourite dishes for the blog, the process of styling, photographing and editing. Though as much as I love photography, the ...
Vita-weats are not something that I personally eat, but this blog isn’t just about what I choose to put in my mouth. Its about what works for everyone else, its about diversity and balance, no matter what your dietary restrictions or non restrictions are. When clients come to the jcn clinic we do not automatically pull ...
As soon as the weather warmed up I instantly found myself craving a good bircher. My interest in steaming hot pancakes and hot porridge dissipated, and I longed for a cooling breakfast to put a bounce in my step for the day ahead. Bircher is like porridge’s cousin.

This dish (like many of my dishes) is inspired by Italy.

A good polenta (like a lot of paired back recipes) really does require decent quality ingredients. ...
On my last visit to Melbourne my sister in law took me to one of her favourite cafe’s on the Mornington Peninsula. I feel pretty fortunate having family in the Mornington area; it truly is a lovely part of Victoria that is blessed with fine food and wine. My sis-in-law is an avid foodie like ...
These toasties with braised balsamic blueberries, goat’s cheese, prosciutto and rocket where one of those crazy brain wave ideas I sometimes (often) get. I was pondering how I would like to use the surplus of blueberries I had, and I started going off in all sorts of weird and wonderful directions until this one came ...
I always know I am onto a winner when people who (can) eat cakes loaded with gluten, dairy and sugar love my creations. I took this Blueberry & Almond Teacake with my to visit family, and unless they were just keeping me happy with appeasing comments (I hope not), it was a huge success. After ...
Its easy to get swayed by filling the blog with scrumptious baked goods and enticing goodies, after all, who doesn’t like a little somethin’ sweet? Sometimes you have to rein it back in though and think about the mid-week dishes that also deserve their time in the spot light. Realistically it’s these mid-week meals that ...
