25.01.2022 DOUBLE TAP FOR SOME CHRISTMAS LEFTOVER IDEAS?!?!?! Cos I am going there people! We have some finality on what we can do for Christmas in Sydney, and now because we've all shopped but plans have been altered we are VERY LIKELY to have leftovers sooooo below is my scrumptious recipe for leftover roast veg / sweet potato sausage rolls which you can serve up on Boxing Day and add your own extras from Christmas (ham, roast meat etc ) as you wish. I buy a spelt puff pastry at spec...iality grocers as they don't have it in the big supermarkets but you can do as you wish. You'll love these - so juicy! ROAST SWEET POTATO SAUSAGE ROLLS Vegetarian Makes 12 small sausage rolls or 4 individual 300g cooked sweet potato pieces 1 tablespoon caramelised onion 1x 400g tin (220g cooked) lentils, rinsed and drained 1 teaspoon sweet paprika 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup (54g) rolled oats 2 eggs, 1 for the mix and 1 to brush the pastry 2x 100g sheets puff pastry*, thawed Heat oven to 200C. Place leftover baked sweet potatoes, caramelised onion, lentils, spices, olive oil, oats and 1 egg in a food processor and blitz until uniform texture. Measure half the mixture over the first third of the pastry in a sausage shape and squeeze to make it hold ready to roll the pastry. Roll the pastry over the top and continue rolling to the end. Repeat with other half of mixture and pastry. Slice into 12 small sausage rolls and place on a large baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Whisk the second egg in a small bowl, the use a pastry brush* to wash the egg on top of each sausage roll. Bake in oven for 40 minutes, cool slightly and serve with a delicious wholesome tomato sauce or just as is!

22.01.2022 The misperception that I hear so often is that a vegetable soup lacks balanced nutrition ie protein carbs and healthy fats, which isn't entirely fair to soup. Rather in fact, soup can actually deliver optimal nutrition and boost lacking nutrients in your day - you just need to consider your ingredients as you would with other meals. This one is a prize example CARROT CHICKPEA AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP which deliver 13.2g protein in a delicious hearty bowl of PLANT BASED WHOLE FOOD...S. It's an easy meal and one you can cook once but enjoy multiple times - eat some, freeze some etc etc - so to me it's one of those no brainer nutritious meals. Remember that protein doesn't always have to be derived from animal sources, plant based whole foods and eating a variety of them throughout the course of your day can provide very adequate sources of protein too. If you'd like my recipe for this one, hit the link below. It's scrumptious and pumpin with quality nutrition to fuel and support your health. http://blog.eimele.com/carrot-cauliflower-chickpea-soup/

22.01.2022 ENGAGED!!!!! I feel like we waited a lifetime for each other, but when we found each other again we knew it would be a lifetime together. I love you and everything we have and will create beautiful man @svendsenfitnesshealth xoxoox

22.01.2022 Simple soul food. Rather than skipping meals because you're later heading out to more festive ones at this time of year or favouring a liquid dinner, focus on a few simple ingredients on a plate to deliver good nutrition and ensure there are still the foundations there for your health. Plus you'll lower your chances of overeating, experiencing digestive discomfort and a hella hangover if you do have nourishing food in you. I know what I'd prefer! On my plate - juicy avo (obsessed atm - craving avo and salt so much!), haloumi yerrrrrmmmmm, home grown tomatoes oooooh yeaaaaa, my roasted beetroot dip (will post that one on the blog soon) and my home made flat breads which look more like an english muffin but taste equally as awesome. This recipe is on the blog already too. Sending health and happiness your way my people - Jacq xo

22.01.2022 MAGNESIUM CHARGED FRUIT AND NUT CHOCOLATE I’ve a recipe that’s going to absolutely change your chocolate game. Rather than your typical refined sugar laden chocolate treat I’ve pumped this beauty up with plenty of magnesium from cacao, nuts seeds and @healthycareau Super Magnesium Powder too. Magnesium is such an important mineral in the body, it stimulates many of the enzymes in the energy production pathways, improves insulin sensitivity, it helps regulate body temperature,... supports bone structure, neuromuscular communication and muscle contraction, it regulates the sleep wake cycles in the body - and that’s just a start!!!! You have the opportunity to do something GREAT for your body with this chocolate my friends and I’m posting the recipe below so you can get your mitts in the kitchen and start making it now. Enjoy!!!! *Always read the label. Follow the directions for use. Vitamin and mineral supplements should not replace a balanced diet. J #healthycarepartner #healthyrecipe #chocolate #magnesium MAGNESIUM CHARGED FRUIT AND NUT CHOCOLATE Serves 30 Gluten free : Dairy Free : Vegan 3/4 cup coconut oil 3/4 cup raw cacao powder 2 tablespoons maple syrup 1 teaspoons vanilla extract 2-3 tablespoons Healthy Care Super Magnesium Powder 1 1/2 cups mixed raw nuts - hazelnut, macadamia, almond, pecan 3/4 cup dried fruits - cranberries, sultanas, currants Melt coconut oil over low heat on the stove. Whisk raw cacao powder, maple, vanilla and Healthy Care Super Magnesium Powder into coconut oil. Toss together the nuts and fruits in a bowl. Line a loaf tin with greaseproof paper, pour half the chocolate mixture in, top with half the fruit and nuts and repeat. Place in freezer to set for 2 hours then slice and enjoy! Best stored in the fridge up to 3 weeks.

21.01.2022 We’re big smoothie fans in our house and always looking for ways to make them more fun - enter the BANOFFEE PIE SMOOTHIE! This recipe is an absolute ripper It’s wholesome, fuelled with plenty of beautiful ingredients, and utterly delicious. I’ve used NEW Dairy Farmers A2 Goodness + Prebiotic Milk for a more traditional smoothie base but with the added benefits of the prebiotic milk (2.5g galacto-oligosaccharides prebiotic per serve) to fuel the good bacteria in the gut as pa...rt of a balanced diet. And the caramel sauce well if you haven’t had my almond butter caramel yet then my friends now is your time! Full recipe below - enjoy! Jacq xo @dairyfarmersau #DFA2goodness #ad BANOFFEE PIE SMOOTHIE Serves 2 Gluten free : Vegetarian 2 cups (500ml) Dairy Farmers A2 Goodness + Prebiotic Milk 3 frozen bananas 2 fresh medjool dates, seeds removed 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 tablespoon hemp seeds 1 tablespoon chia seeds 2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts Cacao powder for dusting Caramel sauce: 2 tablespoons almond butter 2 teaspoons maple syrup splash DF A2 Goodness + Prebiotic Milk Place Dairy Farmers A2 + Prebiotic Milk, bananas, dates, vanilla, hemp and a chia in a blender and blitz until creamy. In a small bowl whisk together ingredients for caramel sauce with a fork. Smear dollops of caramel sauce around two glasses, fill half way with smoothie, sprinkle some walnuts and fill the rest of the glass. Dust with cacao and enjoy.

20.01.2022 A VERY MORE-ISH SPRING RICE SALAD WITH SALSA VERDE... Mmmmmmmm....This would be one of the best salad recipes I’ve written for a while, to be honest though it’s one of the only ones I’ve written in a while for the blog too! So maybe that’s why I feel it’s so great. It’s moreish, flavour-FULL, wholesome and such an easy eat. Team it with your choice of protein. Now live on the blog friends - linked below! J xo http://thebrownpaperbag.com.au/moreish-spring-rice-salad-w/

19.01.2022 Delicious brekky over here... coconut quinoa, choc coconut yoghurt topped with heeeeaps of yummy seasonal berries, almonds and a bit of buckwheat for crunch. Having a dandelion tea on the side which I often forget is in the recipe cupboard and then remember how much I love it when I have it?!?! What’s dory. sun shining in Sydney - hoping for a bush walk today! J xo

19.01.2022 WILD BERRY ICE CREAM CAKE as promised !!!!!! A cracker of a festive cake without too much fuss and a recipe that welcomes swaps to suit any dietary requirements. Dairy free ice cream for dairy, gluten free or plain shortbread for ginger biscuits, coconut oil for butter and fresh summer fruits such as mango, and pineapple in place of berries if you so wish! Although the berries do taste all THAT MUCH BETTER soaked in Remedy’s newest brew WILD BERRY KOMBUCHA. If it’s not on hand you’re welcome to just go with the berry as is. Find it on the link below - Enjoy! http://thebrownpaperbag.com.au/festive-berry-ice-cream-cake/

17.01.2022 I need to get back to meal prep so I can have more lunches like this because I've honestly become such a "don't know where the day went or when/what I ate" recently and I don't feel all that energised as a result. Aiming for a couple of salad mixes, protein rich dip, some cut veg and that'll be it for a small goal this week! This plate is the crispy beans and bubba I showed yesterday on reels, a greeny salad with salsa verde and rice and hullooooooooo haloumi. What are you meal prepping this week? And ps can you deliver????

16.01.2022 Perfect plate of flavour nutrition and colour to kick off the week. My baked pumpkin butter bean salad with yoghurt and a chimichurri dressing. The beauty of dressings like a chimichurri or salsa verde is you’re able to pack a heap of delicious herbs in there - using up any leftovers you may have looking sad in the veggie drawer and adding valuable phytonutrients for anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects in the body. It’s rare you’ll find a salad of mine without herbs s...o if you’re new here (hello! ) be ready with your herbs my friends!!!!! Full recipe up on the blog and linked below. #onthetable #delicious https://thebrownpaperbag.com.au//pumpkin-butter-bean-sala/

15.01.2022 ONE PAN ITALIAN CHICKPEA BRUSSEL SPROUT AND POTATO BAKE yum yummity yum! One pan bakes are some of the best ways to be resourceful and sustainable in the way you eat, using up whatever is left in the fridge and pantry. We usually have starchy staples like potato or sweet potato in the veggie box, plenty of legumes in the cupboard, bits and pieces of herbs needing to be used or blitzed into a pesto and a great selection of condiments like olives, capers, kraut etc which all br...ing a meal like this to life. You can swap potatoes for sweet, brussels for cabbage, chickpeas for cannellini beans, cheese for nutritional yeast in the recipe and still have a scrumptious one tray meal ready without too much effort and maximum nutrition in no time. Recipe up on the blog - linked below! Loves! Jacq xo http://thebrownpaperbag.com.au/one-pan-italian-baked-chick/

15.01.2022 Let’s have a bit of a trip down food memory lane and talk about time warp foods for just a moment. I’d say my top go tos which take me back are : cheese and gherkins, lemon poppyseed cake, and cous cous. They were all HOT trending foods throughout the 70’s to 90’s and I still love em. TELL ME YOUR TOP 3???? Cous cous, circa 1991-99, is a quick and easy grain to add to your meal (you can buy both white and wholemeal cous cous in the ‘rice’ type variety) and if you’re up for so...me time warping in the kitchen then it’s definitely an ingredient to have in your pantry. I’ve taken my 90’s favourite and re-fashioned it for a more contemporary look with zucchini, broccolini, parsley, edamame and caramelised onion. It works folksbetter than the tencel jeans with "boob tube" tops (lol), platform sneakers and bad eye make up of a similar era. Enjoy. http://thebrownpaperbag.com.au/green-cous-cous-salad/

14.01.2022 Without sounding like a total #healthwanker I do very much crave a big bowl of greens and you knowwwwww the haloumi on top just makes it all the more juicy hehe. Been loving salads with a dressing of evoo, fresh orange juice and some vinegar recently - so yum especially when with haloumi which is a squidge on on the salty side of life. Haven't written a recipe for this because it's literally just a throw together but ingredients were kale and asparagus which I blanched together, finely sliced cucumber, toasted almonds, mint, coriander, quinoa, the yummo dressing and haloumi to top. If you make any of my ACTUAL recipes, (soz this one so loose!) please tag me in I love to see them and share on stories! 5 days left of winter lovers!!! Boo ya! Jacq x

10.01.2022 Finalising our Christmas / holiday menu for however things play out this year and took a dive into one of my favourite food guru's @kirstenljenkins books One Leaf At A Time for some drool recipe heaven. It's the most beautiful ebook, substantial salads and sides for any and every occasion. The charred eggplant had me at hello.

I've popped a link below for you - it's SO DELICIOUS!!!! http://www.kirstenjenkins.com.au/one-leaf-at-a-time-e-book

10.01.2022 FULLY appreciate that a muffin recipe isn't reinventing the wheel but these really are so delicious - please make them they're divine ORANGE BLUEBERRY RICOTTA MUFFINS - yum yum yum - recipe below! ORANGE BLUEBERRY RICOTTA MUFFINS Makes 8... 1/2 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil/melted butter/coconut oil 3 free range eggs 3/4 cup whole milk ricotta 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest 1 1/2 cups spelt flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries Heat oven to 180C and grease 8 cup muffin tin. In a mixing bow whisk together maple, evoo, eggs, ricotta and orange zest until creamy. Add flour and baking powder and mix.

Cool and enjoy if you can resist - I love these with a good smear of almond butter.

08.01.2022 A snap from 6 years ago when I signed my first big corporate deal, I had been in the industry working for 2 years. I was excited and nervous, dreaming big and so incredibly passionate about what I could do to impact people’s nutrition, health and lives. Guess what? NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!!!! I still feel EXACTLY the same!!!!! (Given I look a little worse for wear now with the same passion on not much sleep but ya know this too shall pass! ) The health industry has changed a l...ot in that time, it’s not bad it’s just change and change is important but it’s still a wonderful industry to be a part of and I am stoked EVERY SINGLE DAY I made the choice to follow what I have always felt most inspired by and am living it. I am so grateful to all my clients, corporate partners, business partners, colleagues, fellow founders, industry leaders, mentors and you beautiful folk who are part of this journey with me. It’s 8 years this month since I founded @brownpapernutrition I am so friggin excited to see how the next 8 unfold... BRING IT. Sending love and great Friday vibes. Jacq x See more

06.01.2022 Fritters are a fab way to get more fibre on your plate, not to mention look fancy and delish at the same time. Fibre goes well beyond supporting your bowel motions friends, it reduces your risk of chronic disease, lowers cholesterol, helps feed the good bacteria in your gut to strengthen your immunity, and so much more!!! If you haven’t already heard about or read it I’d love to give a big holler out to @theguthealthmd who has written a most wonderful book called FIBRE FUELLED and it truly is one for everyone to read. Meantime, grab the recipe for these hella yummy fibre rich CARROT BRUSSEL SPROUT FRITTERS on the blog. Happy days - Jacq. X

06.01.2022 For the nights when you reaaaaallllllyyyyy want some juicy home baked wedges but with an awesome twist go some of my Miso Baked Wedges with Wasabi Guacamole. Oooooh yeaaaaa I also love these with chopped nori or gomaiso or a Japanese seasoning called 'furikake' on top which you can buy in yummy Asian supermarkets (one of my favourite places to hang and have mems of my past living in Tokyo!) however if you want to make a bit of a seaweed gomaiso blend simply toast a ratio of ...1:3 sea salt to sesame seeds in a pan and then crush them with a mortar and pestle or something similar with the chopped nori. Real little rippa of a seasoning you can use in lots of ways. Recipe for Miso Wedges and Wasabi Guac up on the blog - arigatou gozaimasu!!!!
