Granola Bars

May 16, 2018 | Food and Recipes

These are a very sticky and soft rather than a crunchy Granola Bar, they are vegan and filled with lots of super ingredients like goji berries and chia seeds. I will put a few in the fridge, however I wrap most of mine individually and store in the freezer, just taking out one when I think I will need it. I have eaten them pretty much straight from the freezer, but they are better if they’ve been defrosted for a couple of hours. If I am really disorganised I will have two of these bars with...

Pimped up Tabbouleh

May 11, 2018 | Food and Recipes

If you havn’t tried my easy Tabbouleh then why not!?! This is a pimped up version, you can either make it this way from scratch, or use this as inspiration to jazz up any plain leftovers you have. I tend to sever the plain version as a side, and this version if it’s a stand alone dish. If you are vegan then just omit the cheese, it’s just as nice! Ingredients plain tabbouleh– serves 4/6 200g dried bulgur wheat 50g fresh coriander 50g flat leaf parsley 20g fresh mint 20g chives 1 tbsp...

Tabbouleh

May 9, 2018 | Food and Recipes

This is such a versatile dish, made really simply with bulgur wheat and herbs it requires no cooking at all, just boiling water from the kettle. It’s really important to get lots and lots of herbs, there should be equal quantities, at least, of wheat and herbs, it’s brilliant served with barbecued meat or fish, as part of a mezze, I think it’s best served at room temperature and last for a couple of days in the fridge. Ingredients – serves 4/6 200g dried bulgur wheat 50g fresh...

Eating more fibre will make you happier

May 9, 2018 | Health and Wellness

In the UK we only eat, on average, about half the amount of fibre that we should. It seems perfectly acceptable to discuss how many carbs or protein you are eating, and the latest diets, however talking about fibre is deemed to be much less acceptable. The obvious link between fibre and bowel movements means that it is a bit of a taboo subject but did you know that it’s not just our bowels that are affected by our fibre intake? A healthy intake of fibre has been associated with good...

It might seem strange that a nutritional adviser is reviewing a book about eating what you want, however I love the philosophy behind this book, and my recent post about how we get improved nutritional benefit from eating food we enjoy shows how much I believe in eating food we enjoy; food should not be the enemy. The days when we were hunter gatherers and food was for nutritional value only are long gone. Our food choices are so vast and freely available we no longer need to eat what is...

Asian Style Barbecue Pulled Pork

Apr 20, 2018 | Food and Recipes

This is another great summer recipe for your slow cooker, and it tastes even better if you finish it off on the barbecue. Pork belly is a really cheap cut, and it responds well to slow cooking. It is a very fatty joint, but by cooking it for a long time you render off a lot of the fat, which you can just skim off the top of the sauce. I love recipes like this for when I am entertaining, as you get tasty results from not a great deal of effort, it’s a dig in and help yourself kind of dish...

Eating for Energy

Apr 18, 2018 | Hormone Health, Uncategorised

If you were to view your body as a machine that required fuel what types of fuel would you put into it and at what intervals to get the optimum performance? Have you ever thought about whether you are getting the optimum performance out of your machine? It’s a question that fascinates me and one of the main reasons that I became a Nutrition and Wellness coach. Once you start to think about how well you are fuelling your body, you start to think differently about the quality,...
