25.01.2022 It’s little late but I have been FLAT STICK! Here are some pics of the GORGEOUS meals and drinks @benparkernutrition and I had for our birthday get away at @harvestnewrybar Head chef @allywaddell7 & team do the most incredible work to bring Australian cuisine to the table in ways that send your tastebuds and mind spiralling. @peterhardwick aka the forager, collects little untold Aussie secrets that are carefully and thoughtfully incorporated into the dishes by @allywaddell7... and team. @mowgli83110 is the magician behind the bar, creating the most phenomenal alcoholic free pairings, carefully constructed, fermented again using unsung beauties of the Aussie bush If you have not been here and experienced this magic then you absolutely must!! As a Dietitian I can tell you the ins and outs of the nutritional purpose food serves - but as a human I can confirm it plays so many more then just that. To eat like this, slowly, mindfully and gratefully is such a gift and if we ate like this more we would have a lot less sick people and a happier planet earth. Meals are as follows: #1 Oysters w native succulents #2 Vine ripened tomatoes in butter milk w wood fired sourdough #2 sashimi w kohlrabi #3 Beetroot, kale & rye - special mention to the house made Davidson plum wine #4 Buttermilk parfait - another special shout out to the fermented macadamia mylk . Amazing night, amazing food, amazing people #foodie #dietitian #eat #fortheloveoffood #nourishitall ALSO! Shout out to @bathhousenewry if you saw my stories of our amazing accomodation you’ll know how gorgeous it was! Can’t wait to go back there #love #gorgeous #dreamhouse @ Harvest Newrybar See more

22.01.2022 Can’t go wrong w kimchi scrambled eggs on home made sourdough #eggs #kimchi #tasty #fermentedfoods . Aside from the phenomenal flavour, fermented foods have been under the spot light for ‘super foods’ & ‘health foods’ and naturally we have seen a massive explosion in their marketability $$$ #foodcompanies #moneymoneymoney But like any food trend it’s good to have your witts about you . What’s the benefit?... Fermented foods contain probiotics, little live cultures & bacteria that add to/ boost/ strengthen the types & amounts of gut bacteria in your own digestive tract. These little creatures are suggested to be linked to all sorts of health conditions . What’s a good source of probiotics? Most of us are familiar with the dairy ferments, yogurt’s & kefir’s, but pickled vegetables such as sauerkraut & kimchi are great sources also. The trick is to find the ones labelled naturally fermented as this means the food item has used the natural sources of bacteria + time to ferment. Sometimes foods will use vinegars or sugar syrups and don’t have any beneficial microbes . Of course nothing compares to making your own and I would highly suggest you give it a burn! If you want to read more below is a link w a little more info that I found helpful when I was doubled checking some facts about ferments https://www.health.harvard.edu//fermented-foods-for-better @ Gold Coast, Queensland

20.01.2022 Last night’s ginger honey tofu stir fry whipped it up in 2 seconds #storytime have you every heard of Hot Pepper Hands? me neither... until last night when I thought it was a good idea to put 2x red chilli’s in.. #whyjess Let me tell you - the burn was worse then any steam, oil or flame burn I have ever experienced #hotpepperhands If handling chilli’s make sure you keep your hands away from heat - DO NOT OPEN YOUR PORES TO THE CAPSAICIN because it makes for a longgggggggg painful night lol #yaliveandyalearn #chilli #hotpepperhands #itsathing

18.01.2022 I have literally been eating pizza for dinner every night this week #youwhat #howcouldyou But here’s why it’s ok & fits my goals . Its home made (not calorie free tho - healthy does NOT equal calorie free) we use fresh nourishing ingredients (tomato, olives, capers, spinach, artichoke) + quality protein in our case we love sardines which most people hate but omega 3’s & calcium guys! but you could use chicken, salmon or lean meat. It has both soluble and inso...luble fibre & we REALLY enjoy it . We portion... well I portion Ben being a larger human w a fair bit of muscle mass and usually coming home after training or biking has a way larger calorie budget then I do #dammit but I don’t miss out Our small/ medium pizza has 8 slices usually, I’ll give myself 3 and have 1 cup of non starchy vegetables on the side + 1 litre of water to wash it down. The water also takes up space in my stomach so I am physically FULL so even if I wanted more (which I always do ) I can’t physically fit it. . We always have some kind of dessert so I can knock over my sweet tooth Knowing that I still have another course to get through helps me stick to my portions because I still want to enjoy my dessert. It’s usually a lower calorie food option w a good amount of protein & a small serve that I’ll compliment w a cup of tea adding more volume to take up space and help me feel full. At the moment we have protein jelly w fresh berries - it’s the legit bomb diggity #balance #lifestyle #longtermmaintenance @ Gold Coast, Queensland See more

16.01.2022 An actual visual of how I’m hanging on towards Christmas #needsomeholidays #nearlythere #soclose #endof2019 #notready #itshereanyway

15.01.2022 Shakshuka so delicious so easy paired w a fresh baked sourdough of course We have been living off @benparkernutrition home made baked beans and Oh My God. If you’ve never baked your own beans - man - you are missing the fudge out. It’s never occurred to me to make my own baked beans - but - so dang easy and WAY tastier then anything a mass produced commercial brand could ever deliver. You also get to personalise it up a bit - make em smokey, make em spicy really the options are limitless and of course one of the best parts - they store so well! Cook one batch and have 3 extra 2x portions (6 serves total) spare to freeze for a lazy Sunday breakie... or even #brinner #isogotmelike #whattimeisit #whatdayisit #bakedbeans #sourdough #delicious

14.01.2022 Flash back’s & nostalgia @theshakorganics One of the BEST cafe’s on the sunshine coast. If you’ve never eaten here before I would suggest getting yo there quick smart! Ft we have the Eggs Benny w Salmon & the Mushrooms I’ve also heard the waffles are nek level #foodiesunnycoast #noms #delicious #family #nourish @ The Shak Organic Cafe

14.01.2022 My favourite thing about it cooling down They have this new ‘5 grain porridge’ at Woolworths, it has oats, rye, barely, triticale and rolled brown rice #datfibre #guthealth SO YUM. My latest obsession is oats w a dollop of yogurt and heated berries oh and a drizzle of honey #canthelpmyself #delicious #foodpics

10.01.2022 No matter what - my claves are always there on another note - Fri-Yay! #thankgod #exhausted Hope everyone has a great weekend

09.01.2022 Tasty + healthy it doesn’t have to be one or the other #whynothaveboth You don’t have to count macro’s or eliminate food groups, you can just EAT real food until you’re full and not feel guilty at all. How?! 1. Be mindful of your meal components (eg. Instead of bacon, sausages and hash-browns, choose spinach, tomato & mushrooms). 2. Choose better cooking techniques (fresh, poached,boiled or baked over fried) 3. Be sensible with your portions (1/2 plate free veg, 1/4 c...arb aka toast, 1/4 protein aka eggs) 4. Opt for flavour from nourish foods over sugary condiments (kimchi over sauce) . Choose health and prioritising health is a lifestyle, it’s not short term. But health is the one thing money can not buy you #choosehealth #priortiseyou #nourish #wellness #dietitian See more

08.01.2022 Roasted tomato & garlic soup w quinoa, brown rice & basil. Served w a fresh baked, no knead sourdough #delish Also ft home made quinoa parmesan crackers #thagoods With the weather yesterday last night called for a heart warming soul filling meal As it starts to ever so slightly cool down the comfort foods come out so finding that balance between nourishing for the soul & nutrients can be tricky - BUT - I feel like we’ve nailed it with this one. Actually super easy to make, feeds a bunch of people/ house full of athletes and it’s really friendly to your waist line while caressing those needy taste buds who want’s the recipe?

08.01.2022 It has honestly been a thousand years since leg day #whoevenami #tiredthatswho #legday #illgetthere #megoodpegs

07.01.2022 Social eating can be healthy and yummy too! . This time of year you want to enjoy yourself #ido but I’m always trying to squeeze health promoting, nourishing volume foods in at every occasion because ya gurl lovessssss to eat Improving your diet/ health needs to be a lifestyle - it’s not just a buzz word - it has meaning. The most effective and sustainable health improvements are the ones that improve your health in a fashion the suit your eating preference, time, s...kills, family - LIFESTYLE. Instead of jumping on the NY’s diet resolutions of next fad diet why don’t we all just think of ways that you add a few more fruits & vegetables to your current daily routine & how we can add a little bit more movement #takethestairsyo . Here’s a pic of our maniac platters that we do up when we have guests yes there are sometimes foods on there - 100% should be but there are also amaZing fruits & vegetables, raw, cooked & fermented. Now granted when food is presented to me like this I 120% go shark eyes and portion control is out the window - BUT - another strategy I find useful is alternating. Eg - I can eat what I ever want & as much as I want, but I have to have a vegetable in between each ‘sometimes’ food. This may seem crazy but for me it ensures I’m still eating nourishing foods & fills me up. It might sounds crazy to you, or extreme but this works for ME. It’s just an example of #balance #haveyourcakeandeatittoo If you struggle finding strategies to assist you with better choices, then find a proper food pro to give you a hand what works for some won’t work for all. You are unique and wonderfully complex in all the RIGHT ways don’t let society make you think any less of yourself #selfcare #kindness #youramazing #dietitians #dietitian #foodies @ Gold Coast, Queensland See more

03.01.2022 I think this kinda cold snap calls for some chia cherry pie @benparkernutrition This is NOT a calorie friendly pie but good lordy she is worth every gram #inmyhumbleopinion and hey cherries are fruit and chia seeds have fibre and healthy fats #justdontaskaboutthepastry #itshomemadetho #stillhasvodkainit #sorrywhat?!? #secretspice

01.01.2022 Good old oats Big bowl o love Probs a bit much honey but life’s short, live dangerously #oats #breakie #noms Another way to justify it is due to it’s perfect mix of soluble & insoluble fibre great for gut health, regularity, slow release energy, cholesterol lowering capacity & tastes good! #winning #getyourstoday #woolworths #rolledoats #99c
