Rainbow Rolls with NuVitality

Nuts and seeds are some of my most favourite ingredients to use in cooking. Not only are they powerhouses of nutrition but their versatility is endless! There really isn’t anything you can’t do with them! Today I’m sharing an absolute cracker of a recipe that I developed in partnership with NuVitality, who are a small whole foods company picking and packing the best quality nuts, seeds, and grains.

Savoury Butternut Pumpkin Muffins

Your morning tea is about a get a serious make over with my savoury butternut pumpkin muffins! I really love trying to squeeze in extra veg in different ways at snack times because, in all honesty, even though I'm a nutritionist, raw carrot sticks just don't do it for me.

Red Lentil Soup

This week there's been a few weird-weather days here in Melbourne. Even though it's summer, we went through a bit of a rainy, cold-snap and I felt like nothing more than soup. However, because it is summer, I didn't have any of the usual suspects in my fridge, like celery, pumpkin or broccoli. Luckily, I had the right handful of ingredients to make this delish Turkish red lentil soup that I learnt to make last year.

Lunching Lighter With Cruskits and Vita-Weats

Did you know that more than 3.8 million Australians skip lunch thinking they will get more done? But by 12pm blood sugar levels begin to drop leaving you feeling tired and having trouble concentrating. Taking a few minutes for a light lunch helps to re-fuel your body and get you ready to take on the afternoon. Good choices for lunch are quality carbohydrates, protein, good fats and some vegetables or fruit.

Tarragon Chicken Open Sandwiches

My first introduction to tarragon was when I was in year 7 home economics or cooking class at high school. My home eco teacher needed extra help to prepare a staff lunch during my maths class so naturally, I jumped at the chance.  I don't remember any other dish I helped to make that day, just this chicken tarragon sandwich filling.

Pumpkin, Coconut & Peanut Butter Soup

As many of you who follow me on instagram know, I have been working on something so special for what seems like AGES now! I wanted you to be the first to know that I have spent the better part of the year trying, testing, photographing, and building my FIRST EVER recipe ebook! And what's better?

Savoury Gluten Free Tart

So if I'm being honest, I can barely be bothered cooking dinner most weeknights because, like everyone else in the world, I'm tired. When I don't cook dinner, I will either have a breakfast meal like muesli and yoghurt, a toasted cheese sandwich, cheese and biscuits, or prawn pad thai from my local thai restaurant.
