OK so there is not much healthy about this recipe, except maybe the fact that its dark chocolate instead of milk and a bit of cacao and coconut oil! But it’s Christmas, so all in moderation…… 1/3 cup coconut oil 1/4 up cacao or cocoa powder 1/2 cup shredded coconut 1/2 cup cranberries 1 cups…

Toasted Pumpkin, Avocado and Mint salad
High in fibre and B vitamins, combined with the protein of the walnuts, this salad is filling. The dressing is what makes it though; hardly original, but this dressing goes with everything! If having for dinner, serve with a bit of grilled fish or chicken for a low fat, healthy meal. 1 cup brown and…
Bacon, spinach and feta frittata
Frittata needs bacon. You don’t need heaps, but it just makes frittatas so much tastier, after all bacon and eggs go hand in hand together! These are awesome lil packages of protein, but be careful not to have too many as they’re pretty high in fat! They didn’t last long in my household with BG…
Moroccan Chicken Salad
With all these aromatic, healing spices, this Moroccan dish is good for the soul. I usually double the mixture of the spices but you can obviously make as much as you like, as its a good spice mix to use to marinate meats or put in curries. 1 x can chickpeas 1/2 pomegranate 1/2 cup…
Super greens pesto chicken
This dish is clean and green and sooo easy. Just poach or steam your chicken, make your pesto (or buy from supermarket) cook your rice and assemble.

Thai Fried Rice
This is a different version of normal fried rice; lower in fat, less processed meat and one that most kids love too because of the different colours. Also its easy to leave out the ingredients that they don’t like and add them in at the end for adults. This can be made healthier by using…

It’s officially bone broth and soup season! Bone broths are all the go at the moment, and with very good reason. Bone broths contain gelatin, which helps heal gut inflammation and is also great for inflamed joints and the immune system.

Thai Chicken Pumpkin Soup
I know its getting warmer, Hallelujah….about time! But I love soup any time of the year as its so flexible, nourishing and filling. Have it for lunch, dinner or leftovers. Its a great way to get some gut healing chicken stock into you also, if you’re into that. I’ll post my recipe for that also,…
Curry Salad
This salad originally came from my sister Andi, but I’ve changed it a bit to be a bit more fructose friendly. It’s a bit blokey too I think because of the curry dressing so men seem to like it as well. My BG loves it and always scoffs two bowls down. So the dressing is…
