Beefed up Tabbouleh
This is exactly what it’s called….Beefed up Tabbouleh. It’s beefed up in the fact that it’s served with beef on the side, but also it’s tabbouleh plus more! The photo doesn’t really do it justice, I should’ve put a bit more love into it….but photography is not my strong point! I’ve been doing this salad…

Festive Salad with lemon dressing
This salad looks festive with most ingredients in it red and green and the golden nuts. The prefect salad to have at the Christmas dinner table with either meat or seafood, and the lemon dressing helps cut through the fat of the meat. It looks impressive and is pretty healthy too. I made it for…
Jamie’s Turkey Modified
So some of Jamie Olivers recipes are healthy, whilst some are totally indulgent and covered in oil and loaded with butter. I’ve made this slightly healthier by leaving out a few ingredients etc and adding in some others to make it gluten free and fructose friendly. Ingredients: 5 kg turkey (or whatever size you need…
Double Choc Banana Cake
There’s not too much sugar in this cake; 1/2 cup plus the dark chocolate chips isn’t really too much spread over a whole cake. It’s super easy to make, plus it doesn’t take too long to cook. Leave the icing off if wanting to keep it half healthy though! I was making it for my…
Super Boozy Rum Ball Slice
I tried to make these healthy and it just didn’t work! I accidentally put too much rum in and then it didn’t taste sweet enough. So I melted approx 100g chocolate to pour a thin layer over the top and made a slice of it, to sweeten it up a bit. It’s slightly healthier using…
Gluten Free Rocky Road
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…
