This mushroom, chicken & ginger immune boosting soup has been a favourite of mine in clinic for years. I’ve lost count of the amount of clients I have handed this out to for a therapeutic boost of nutrients through the cooler months. I have also used it countless times to help reduce inflammation and for ...
One of the most common down falls I see in clinic is clients not eating correctly around their work outs. More often than not people aren’t consuming the correct food (at the right time) leading up to their exercise session, and on top of this are not refueling correctly once finished. Generally, the rule of thumb ...
Have you ever met anyone that didn’t like spaghetti bolognese? It is pretty much a household staple in most family homes. I know for a fact from discussing weeknight meals with so many people in clinic that spaghetti bolognese is a super popular dinner option. It is also the meal of choice for many parents for hiding ...
Where do I start with this Chicken, Roast Potato, Lemon Salad with Capers & Crispy Sage? This recipe has been given pride of place once a week in our household as a tried and true staple. It’s been given the ‘favourite meal’ status by my husband, taking the previous winning spot of my kofta ...
I think its important to have a mix of recipes here on the website. Sometimes we want to spend lingering hours in the kitchen, pottering about, mixing and measuring.

These admirable relationships had developed purely through social media channels. Kate Bradley from Kenko Kitchen has broken this mould. I had ...
I knew I was on a winner with this cinnamon & coconut gluten free granola recipe when I was photographing my first batch on a Saturday morning to post on Instagram. My husband was helping me out by pouring hot chocolate sauce over the freshly made granola, stacked in a jar with yoghurt and ...
Lets be frank. This cherry & blueberry meringue smash with coconut cream & nut praline is decadent. Yes, its dairy free and gluten free. Yes, the fats in the coconut cream are ‘good fats’ and the berries are loaded with antioxidants along with the dark chocolate, but it’s still an indulgent and luxurious dessert. What ...
Ugly food. Ugly food by my definition is food that tastes really delicious, but looks damn ugly. That’s what these orange-spiced jam drop cookies are. Ugly cookies. I’m okay with that. Not everything needs to be pretty. What I do demand though is flavour, and these tasty little morsels do not let me down. These ...
This recipe for tomato, almond & potato salad w creamy dressing was meant to be slow cooked carrots with a creamy dressing. The thing is, I have a bad habit of deciding on a dish, then heading to the supermarket or fruit and vegetable store and being influenced by the fresh produce I see ...
