23.01.2022 Yesterdays Sweet Potato & Qunioa Patties became tonights healthy vegetarian burgers. On gluten free seeded buns Hummus The pattie ... Spinach Tomato Carrot Red onion Avocado Relish from Oksanas Kitchen real food sauces #meatfreemonday #vegetarian #goodness #homemade #healthy #burgers

22.01.2022 RECIPE - Sweet potato & quinoa patties. These patties are super high in immune building nutrients for fighting off winter bugs. Protein & plant based carbs make them filling & great for anyone who may be wanting to lose weight. Perfect for creating a vegetarian burger, eating with a salad or just a simple snack on the run. ... INGREDIENTS (makes approx. 6, I ate one before I took the photo to taste them ) 1 cup cooked quinoa 2 small (or 1 large) sweet potato cooked and mashed 1 egg whisked 2 cloves garlic crushed small handful chopped coriander 1 tsp. grated fresh turmeric Himalayan salt & black pepper to season coconut oil for cooking Method combine all ingredients (except coconut oil) in a bowl, mixing until well combined heat oil in a fry pan over low/moderate heat shape mixture into patties and slowly cook through, flipping when the pattie is firm set aside to cool when the patty is cooked & golden brown on both sides NOTE- I find cooking these slowly over a low heat helps to keep the patties together. Also using a lid on the frying pan helps the patties to cook through again helping to keep them together.

22.01.2022 Some of you may have read about the ice cream sandwich that didnt melt after being left outside for 3 days in Australia Well here is an experiment on that same brand of ice cream sandwich that made me cringe what the hell is in that so called food? #fakefood #eatrealfood

20.01.2022 Whats your opinion? Theres so much information and misinformation about healthy eating. Fad diets, magic pills and shakes, information constantly changing, low-fat vs high-fat, count calories, eat more, eat less, intermittent fasting, low carb, more protein......how confusing what works for one person may not work for another. I came across this article where I found myself agreeing with a lot of the statements such as the one about natural sugars - its still sugar refi...ned or not. Others statements I didnt agree with so much like the one about organics, I do think that organic food is a better option. Not saying I eat entirely organic but I do my best and buy spray free from my local farmers market. What do you think of some of these facts or factoids?

20.01.2022 Do you care if your banana is too bent, too straight, too long, too short, too fat or too thin? 40% of bananas grown in Australia are thrown away because they dont fit standards set by supermarkets! YES 40%....perfectly edible bananas that apparently arent aesthetically pleasing This is why I buy my bananas from local farmers at the markets because no one cares if the bananas are too bent or straight, skinny or fat, and trust me they taste so much better than the superm...arket ones! Support local farmers! Reduce wastage, dont stop at bananas.

19.01.2022 Spring is coming and the weather this weekend was perfect for making a raw BOE (bit of everything) salad with fresh produce from Mt warning produce at my local farmers market.

19.01.2022 Thankfully the smoothies I make are much more affordable than this #celestebarber

17.01.2022 Well its been ages since I posted anything on here. I have become somewhat underwhelmed with Facebooks lack of engagement unless you choose to pay for advertising. Its disheartening having over 5500 people liking the page only to post something and receive 3 likes or people unlike the page & leave me thinking "why, what did I do wrong?" Marketing strategists say posting three times a day is the best way to engage your FB audience but I personally dont have anything to sh...are 3 times a day that I feel is relevant to this page & Im busy at my day job or having a real life. Im sure no one wants to read posts about me walking the dog after work or eating cheap tacos on Taco Tuesday with my daughter. Another strategy is to pre-schedule my posts. Spend Sunday night pre-planning and scheduling my posts for the week. Ummmmm I seriously dont know how I can do that when Im flat out working out what Im going to wear to work on Monday, folding washing, food prepping etc. and generally just taking some downtime before the working week. Ive been sitting on the fence for a while trying to decide if I should continue this page when theres so many healthy foodie pages and info out there! Im the worst procrastinator Meanwhile heres a pic of a delicious Asian Quinoa Salad with Crispy Skinned Tofu I prepared earlier

17.01.2022 Banana & Blueberry Muffins On Friday afternoon I baked these muffins with a friends daughter. The first thing she said when she saw the ingredients was "were making them from scratch, not out of a packet?" I laughed, but once we made them she realised how easy they are to make and how delicious they are, best of all theyre healthy. Hopefully shell make them again. ...

16.01.2022 Ive had a couple of slack weeks posting on here. Sometimes life just gets busy & other things take priority. But still plenty of healthy cooking going on here. The season for coughs & colds is fast approaching. Its time for deliciously warming curries & soups. I came across this yummy curry recipe using so many of my favourite foods so I thought Id give it a go. "Sweet Potato & Cauliflower Turmeric Curry" ... I ended up adding more of the spices while it was cooking as I felt it needed more flavour, I gradually added more coconut milk while the quinoa was cooking as I found it was evaporating quicker than the quinoa was cooking. I also added fresh coriander with the spinach. I would also add beans if I had them on hand. Ill definitely be making this again Youll find the recipe here >>> http://bit.ly/2pyRxZd

14.01.2022 What's your opinion? There's so much information and misinformation about healthy eating.

07.01.2022 Spring has sprung on the Gold Coast which means smoothie season is back This smoothie is great for breakfast containing oats for fibre, avocado for healthy fats, spirulina for protein & many more nutritious whole foods. I only use half a banana & half a pear, its best to not overload your smoothies with too much fruit. So deliciously creamy & filling.

07.01.2022 Homemade Easter fudge, another great alternative to store bought Easter eggs. Using only 5 ingredients, dairy free & refined sugar free made with homemade coconut butter. Usually I would add nuts but I didnt have any so I added cacao nibs instead, these are optional. Youll find the recipe here >>>> http://bit.ly/1oafHEA

07.01.2022 Hahahaha we all know that one person. As much as I enjoy eating healthy it's all about balance, not being obsessive. I used to be quite obsessed with only eating certain foods but as my journey has taken different & sometimes unexpected paths I've changed my lifestyle. Some days it's all quinoa & green smoothies, other days it's pizza & red wine. #balance #eightytwenty

05.01.2022 Recipe ~ Salmon & Coriander Slice This could also be called a crustless quiche but it's much denser due to the coconut flour. You can use tuna instead of salmon if you prefer. ...

Ingredients 6 eggs whisked 1/4 cup coconut flour 1 tsp. baking powder 200g pink or red salmon drained 1/2 red onion diced 6 - 9 slices tomato (depending on how big your slice is) Handful chopped coriander Method 1.

04.01.2022 Gluten free homemade vegetarian pizza! Even for those who dont like cauliflower, this is a game changer! Cauliflower pizza base topped with a homemade coriander pesto, roast pumpkin, balsamic roasted red onion, goats cheese, toasted pine nuts & rocket. I hadnt made this recipe as a pizza base for a while & to be honest I do find making cauliflower patties/burger buns is easier than a pizza base because trying to flip this when cooking it is a real pain in the butt! So nex...t time Ill make mini pizzas instead. Still delicious, youll find the pizza crust recipe here >>>> http://bit.ly/1IBxZFY

04.01.2022 A delicious salad to get me through a very busy week. Such a delicious combination of flavours with a twist of Mediterranean. quinoa spinach garlic roasted pumpkin ... grilled capsicum sundried tomatoes kalamata olives lime juice See more

04.01.2022 One of my favourite recipes on the back of an Absolute Organic quinoa packet, Coconut Curry with Quinoa The flavours are delicious. I used roast pumpkin instead of carrots & I added coriander, cashew nuts & sesame seeds. I use more than 1/2 a tsp of each of the spices, generally around a tsp of each and I add lots of cracked black pepper too which helps in the absorption of the curcumin found in turmeric. The only thing that doesnt work for me in this recipe is 1/2 cup of quinoa to 1 & a half cups of vegetable stock, I find this to be too much liquid so I only use about 3/4 cup of stock when cooking the quinoa using the absorption method.

03.01.2022 Saturday afternoon & the rain has set in on the Gold Coast, making it a perfect day for baking - Blackberry Oat Crumb Bars. I came across this recipe from Baked Ambrosia and made a few minor changes to suit what ingredients I had at home. Instead of almond butter I used tahini, I used rice malt syrup instead of maple and I added shredded coconut on the top layer in the last 5 minutes of baking. I also added blueberries for extra texture and because I had some in the freezer.... You could use any berries, add apple or pear too. It says these bars are gluten free but technically oats arent gluten free. If you have a sweet tooth I would suggest adding more natural sweetener to the recipe, even mixing some through the actual berries. These bars are quite brittle and really could be served as a crumble for dessert. Theyre delicious, easy to make and healthy. Youll find the recipe link in the comments. #vegan #healthy #healthyfood #homemade #baking #foodie

02.01.2022 Thai Sweet Potato Noodles with Crispy Skinned Tofu ~ This recipe was introduced to me by my daughters friend, Kelly who is a big fan of healthy homemade food.

01.01.2022 Made some yummy caramelised red onion today after being inspired by eating the most delicious omelette at Home Plate Kitchen that had caramelised onion through it.
