25.01.2022 The Humble (Healthier) Lasagne This image and meal, is our most liked from our Meraki community. Like everything, we aim to do things differently in our kitchen. We choose to make our own cauliflower bechamel and hide a lot of vegetables in to the mince. This leaves you feeling lighter and not so much the 'need the couch' feeling after eating it! These lasagnes are a labour of love and unfortunately (or fortunately) often sell straight out of the oven. Literally! We have w...rapped lasagnes in tea towels several times! So, they can be hard to get your hands on lately. The girls have made extras for the shop today and they are also available on our Cookaborough menu for next week too. Menu released this morning with orders ready next Wednesday for pick up or delivery...... https://cookaborough.com/meraki-produce



23.01.2022 And isn't life interesting...... Meraki was a dream that started just over 3 years ago in a Google Doc. Ideas and inspiration, saved in a document that ended up being over 40 pages long. I printed it, read through it constantly to look for common themes. What ended up being the common theme..............healthy, great quality food . Healthy food has always been and always will be my inspiration. To share that with others was a dream that with each day that passes, continue...s to come to life. I may not have ever known my dream, if I didn't start recording it. Do you have an idea? A dream? Something that keeps you awake at night or something that you think about whist you are in the 9-5......that's your dream . Write it down. Anyway you can. Don't over think it. Don't stress about how you record it. Just start. Screenshots, memes, photos, ideas.... The best thing I ever did, was just, start as there will never be a perfect time . #meraki #juststart

23.01.2022 Christmas Catering Thank you for being patient with us whilst we finalised our menu.

All with our Meraki spin on it . Our menu is available through Cookaborough from 6pm tonight and closes 5pm Wednesday 16th of December (see note). Pick up is on Christmas Eve between 11am-2pm. Click the link her...e to place your order...... https://cookaborough.com/meraki-produce A few key points to remember: Due to the size of our kitchen, we will have to monitor orders and may have to stop the menu earlier than the closing date. We suggest placing your order early (we aren't just saying this to encourage orders, those who know our kitchen, know what we are talking about!) Pick up is on Christmas Eve strictly between 11am-2pm (Sorry to be strict over here however it is really important to myself as a business owner, that my staff can enjoy time with their family so we are closing earlier this year). Thank you so much for your support. The thought of sharing Meraki meals with you this Christmas is just one of the greatest feelings as a healthy food business owner. See more

22.01.2022 Last day of ReLaksa With the weather warming up, tomorrow will be our last day for Laksa. So, make the most it........... I can hear you saying,... What ever will they replace ReLaksa with? What will the new Friday name be? Whatever happened to Mr Squiggle? (Probs not asking that but I am) We will be introducing something you all ask for ALL OF THE TIME and something that takes us A LONG TIME TO MAKE. But we do it because we love you . Answer your question? No. In fact it doesn't but you will have to wait and see. As we know, good things take thyme. What do you think it could be?



22.01.2022 Bao-Down Friday (an extra special day tomorrow!) At the risk of ruining our Insta profile with the same bao photo.....we think it is worth it. Why you ask? 1. It’s Bao-Down tomorrow. Korean Chicken Bao Buns to be precise.... 2. We’ve been too busy each Friday to take any other photos of our baos. So, this is it. 3. It’s our Heidi’s last day tomorrow before she goes on mat leave (), we want to make it the best day she’s had! Tomorrow from 11am-2pm these will be available. Along with a breakfast options, a million rice paper rolls, plenty of fresh bowls and every family meal under the sun for your healthy Friday takeaway.

22.01.2022 A gut healing curry for the whole family Our Fragrant Thai Green Curry has continued to be one of our most popular family meals. Green curry for the family you say? Yep! We make our own paste and take out half of the chilli seeds, making it a mild curry! But that's not all that is great about this curry.... Our beautiful friend and resident Meraki nutritionist, @tahliathomasnutrition told us what makes this curry so great for you and your gut. Tahlia is a detox expert ...with a special focus on the gut microbiome so she knows a thing or two about gut health A gut healing curry that also assists with cardiovascular health with the inclusion of ginger. Ginger is a wonderful inclusion to help increase blood flow and circulation throughout the body. It’s also a wonderful ingredient that helps to naturally increase digestive capacity and nutrient absorption within the gut. Gut loving curry! So, what are you doing for your gut today? p.s. Meraki is open from 9-5pm today and 8-5pm tomorrow for all of your gut needs . How convenient of them.



21.01.2022 Honey and Lemon Tea This has become a morning ritual in our house. First thing when I wake up.... Hot water Lemon... Honey from @mountainbee3709 Meraki's resident nutritionist got me on to this good thing.... why you ask? Well, as @tahliathomasnutrition says is alkalising and it also helps with activating digestive processes and enzyme function first thing on an empty stomach. is antibacterial and immune supporting. So, if I do nothing else in the day, at least I know I have nailed my gut health first thing in the morning. Anyone else feel like an adult when they achieve milestones like these?

20.01.2022 Healthy Christmas Puddings Here is an incredibly easy and delicious (if we do say so ourselves) healthy Christmas pudding recipe. Literally, 10 minutes tops! You’ll find all of these products to make this recipe from Myer Centrepoint Albury. ... Enjoy

19.01.2022 Did someone say podcast? No. No-one did but I wasn't sure how else to bring up the fact that I was INCREDIBLY fortunate enough to be asked to do a podcast with the absolute legends from @thedolanders. Nik and Blake from The Do Landers created this podcast which 'seeks to uncover inspiring stories of ordinary folk making a change and DOING when others don’t'. ... To be honest, I was very, very hesitant to share this as from all of the 'out of comfort zone' things I have done, this rates as one of the highest. However after listening to it, I am incredibly proud of it and that is a huge credit to Nik and Blake. They made a very daunting experience really fun but also, very honest. This podcast was one of the first opportunities I have had to reflect on Meraki so it is very raw, very honest, very detailed and very emotional for me. The line up of guests on the Do Lander podcast is illustrious and undeserving for myself. I wasn't quite sure how I fit into it all but nevertheless, I am there and really proud of what the team, my support network and myself have done so far. The fact that we love what we do is all that matters to me. I am asked a lot about how does one go from a passion to a business and well, this podcast is my answer to that. For all of the work that Nik and Blake go to each week to provide these stories for people, I would love you to have a listen...... https://thedolanders.com/jacquie-koschitzke-found-her-pass/

19.01.2022 Proud as Just a couple of Kosi's who are as proud as punch to be wearing that logo. That logo represents so much and I honestly walk a foot taller when I wear it. We are only early on in the Meraki journey but to have Jarod (and so many others) help me in every which way that he does, means that Meraki will continue on. Some days I genuinely can't make one more decision or more so, I just have no idea what I am doing (standard) but JK supports me 150%. He now unders...tands the intricacies of Meraki and will allow me to bounce my crazy ideas off him. He will also show me, teach me and make decisions that have meant Meraki is in a better position each day it’s open. JK is the other half of Meraki but it’s the half you don’t often see. As a business owner who built this little business from the ground up, it means everything to have someone else help carry the sometimes burdens of business. But more importantly, to celebrate the little wins along the way . So yes, we wear our hoodies and hats like a couple of proud idiots (not together, that would be weird). But we love what Meraki is, what it means for us and what it is becoming for our community . Go Team Meraki See more

12.01.2022 Happy Birthday to our Lindy Today is Lindy's birthday. A day where she wouldn't want any fuss caused or any focus on her so we have given her today off. However, tomorrow......... may the fuss and focus be all over you Chef Lindy! You deserve a little fuss . Meraki wouldn't be opening its doors each day without this incredible lady. She has stood by my side and has helped Meraki in more ways than anyone can imagine. She treats Meraki like one of her own and will often fo...rgo her own wellbeing to make sure she provides the best for the Meraki community. Her attention to detail and level of execution in everything that she does demands the absolute best from herself and those around her. It is why Meraki is known for its quality. She wouldn't have it any other way and I thank the bloody food Gods each day that we have Lindy. Legit, every day! Happy Birthday Batman, love from Robin, your apprentice and the whole Meraki community

11.01.2022 Chicken Nuggets The story behind these humble nuggets. The first time I made these nuggets years ago for my nephew Archie, he said "Jax, you should start a shop and sell these." I hate to disappoint little people, so I went and opened a shop. ... Now these nuggets, made from chicken breast (yep, actual chicken!) and fresh gluten free bread crumbs, now are synonymous with Meraki and are available on our online menu this week https://cookaborough.com/meraki-produce Thanks Archie man for the idea . Pictured here are our beautiful little people models, Cash and Lola who have been big supporters of Meraki since day one.

08.01.2022 Catering As things begin to return to a 'new normal', we have updated our catering menu to suit the current situations. We have kept many of the Meraki favourites however, we have added 'Individual Packages' and more 'Salad and Tray Bake' Packages. This, like all of our menus, are evolving! We are beginning to book out for our weekends in October and, we can't actually believe we are saying this however with Christmas only 12 weeks away....... well, you get the idea ... Keen to find out more about our catering packages, head to our website, link in bio or click the link https://merakiproduce.com.au/catering/

08.01.2022 Tahlia's Top Tips for Enjoying Christmas To help you feel your best through the silly season, Meraki's Nutritionist and Detox expert, @tahliathomasnutrition has provided us with some helpful tips........ Christmas can be a challenging time when it comes to our dietary and lifestyle choices, larger meals, less sleep, more alcohol. In saying this, there are still some little non-negotiables that I like to encourage my patients to follow to ensure they still stay on track du...ring this time 1. Ensure you're drinking 2 litres of water each day to stay hydrated, but this also helps with overeating as water can fill your stomach and this means that you're less likely to overindulge. Try and ensure it's filtered water, and add a little fresh lemon juice to increase the digestive supporting benefits! 2. The digestive system tends to struggle over this time with the extra food and cheeky treats! Always have some digestive enzymes on hand to utilise when you're feeling full or to use as prevention when you know you're going to have a large meal. These are best prescribed by a Practitioner! 3. If you're someone that struggles with a hangover, this generally means that your liver needs a little more support in clearing excess toxins. Try 1 tsp of Activated Charcoal in water before your head hits the pillow, the charcoal binds to the toxins and removes them from the body more efficiently, reducing the severity of your morning headache! Just ensure you're taking the charcoal 2 hours away from any supplements or medications Happy Christmas, enjoy all of the good things!

07.01.2022 That’s a wrap From our Meraki family to yours, we wanted to say thank you. From the bottom of our grateful hearts, thank you. This week was the biggest week our little kitchen has experienced and due to these legends , we did it. We successfully catered for lots of our Meraki communities Christmas and we couldn’t be prouder. It was a pinch myself kind of moment to see all of that food in the cool rooms. Healthy, nourishing food that was made with a whole heap of love. F...or those who will or have enjoyed Meraki. Thank you for choosing us. From our faces you can see it was a big week. Well, a big year really. And now, we are taking the time to rest, reset and be with our loved ones. Apparently I’ve been married nearly a year so I might hang out with my husband for a bit . Catch up on the goss and what’s generally been happening outside of Meraki’s 4 walls. We love what we do and we love those 4 walls however next year, we have some news to share with you about those walls . Our 4th year in business may just be our biggest yet.....

07.01.2022 Tahlia's Tips and Tricks Tahlia and the team at Meraki have been working on some exciting things behind the scenes. We have listened to our community and creating recipes, tips and tricks to help you feel at your best as the warmer weather approaches. In the meantime, Tahlia has kindly shared some of her top tips for getting the most from your meals.......... 1. Incorporate a glass of warm lemon water with each meal. This will help with optimising your digestion to ensure t...hat you’re able to absorb all of the goodness from each mouthful, because ‘you aren’t what you eat, you are what you absorb’. Incorporating this with each meal will also assist in the absorption of iron in meals like Meraki's Beef Meatballs or their Lasagne. An extra bonus being that lemon trees are flooded at the moment! Ask your neighbour if you don’t have your own! 2. Make each meal time a mindful moment, take the opportunity to sit down and eat your meal mindfully. Put your phone down, turn the TV off and enjoy each mouthful! Another way to enhance this ritual is to aim to chew each mouthful 15-20 times. This simple practice can do wonders for your health. 3. Variety and diversity is important! We know you all have your favourites, but to ensure your incorporating a variety of different nutrients and your gut to a variety of different fibres, try and choose a different meal each week!

06.01.2022 Chicken Poppers They are back. Gosh you guys have missed these but we will be honest, we haven't missed making them! These bad boys take a lot of love and labour but we know you are desperate for them. We have several customers orders on a 'Chicken Popper' waitlist. What is in this magical ball of goodness that we made up in our kitchen just over a year ago? Chicken mince, lots of veggies (peeled zucchini etc), tasty cheese, a few extra delicious flavours which a...re then rolled in gluten free breadcrumbs and baked until golden. These are great on their own as an after school snack or quick dinner or on top of a salad to name a few options. These are also available on our Cookaborough online menu this week. Please, please we ask that if you are after these, order online as we can't guarantee we will make enough for the shop too. https://cookaborough.com/meraki-produce See more
