Foodie Friday: Sugar free breakfast cereal

#Foodiefriday My version of Steph Lowe's Suger free breakfast cereal. Start with 3 big spoons of either Greek or coconut yoghurt, a small handful of nuts, 2 spoons of shredded coconut, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, 2 spoons of sunflower seeds or pepitas (or a mix of both), a small handful frozen raspberries. Mix well, then I topped it with a few blackberries, pepitas and a sprinkle of coconut. Enjoy! Thanks @thenaturalnutritionist 🙋‍♀️🙏

Foodie Friday: Nut crumbed Salmon

#foodiefriday Nut crumbed Salmon with Orange mash and steamed greens. I used almond meal, lemon zest and parsley to coat the salmon. This gluten free crumb could be used on other proteins such as chicken, veal or tofu. It's so simple and so delish 😋

Foodie Friday: Chicken Curry

#foodiefriday Chicken and veg curry with cauliflower rice. Take note - the only starch on this plate was from the sweet potato with normal rice substituted out to reduce the complex carbs. Good portions of protein from the chicken and good fats from the coconut milk. Give cauliflower rice a go with your next curry 👍

Foodie Friday: Asian Broth

#foodiefriday Asian broths are so versatile. This is my Husband's version. The broth base is made with onion, garlic, ginger, chilli, carrot, celery, tamari, rice wine and chicken stock. Chicken drumsticks were then poached slowly in the broth. We added Asian greens, vermicelli noodles and fresh tomatoes to serve. Have a go at this recipe this weekend 😀

Foodie Friday: Beetroot cake

#foodiefriday This is my version of Sophie Thomson's Beetroot cake. I halved the sugar, and used GF flour. The beetroot makes the cake super moist and its a bit chocolate fudgey. The pops of purple from the beetroot made the batter an amazing colour. This will be an occasional fun treat for my kids recesses, made ready for school next week (hooray we made it!) 😀

Foodie Friday: 7 veg San Choy Bau

#foodiefriday 7 veg San Choy Bau - I use turkey mince as the base (its much leaner than pork) cooked with leek, garlic, ginger, mushrooms, spinach and seasoned with tamari. I serve it in Cos lettuce leaves and add heavy garnishes of capsicum, cucumber, carrots and coriander. Definitely a family favourite 😀

Foodie Friday: Tempeh

#foodiefriday Tempeh & assorted curried vegetables with beans and beans sprouts for crunch. For those who haven't tried Tempeh before, it works really well in curries and stir fries. Pan fry for a few minutes first them add to your favourite dish, yum!

Foodie Friday: Chicken Provencale

#foodiefriday My interpretation of Stephanie Alexander's Chicken provencale. Slow cooked with Thyme, Bay leaves, black olives, a splash of wine in a chicken stock and tomato base. We had a win with red capsicum for my kids. They had flatly rejected it for a while, now they are fans again, happy days 😀

Avocado

I love love love avocados.

Containing approx 20 different vitamins and minerals (including more potassium than bananas), Monounsaturated Fatty acids similar to those in olive oil, beneficial fibre and antioxidants, what's not to love?

I try to eat 1/4 of a large avocado or a 1/2 of a small avocado in a salad or my morning smoothie every day

If you haven’t tried avocado in a smoothie - DO IT! it makes your smoothie incredibly creamy!

Food Prep Tips

Food Prep whenever you can. If I have an hour at home, tray bake some vegetables such as these gorgeous mini sweet potatoes and cauliflower florets. Toss in a splash of olive oil, cracked pepper and cumin. Bake at 180 degrees for 45-50min. Once cooled, they freeze really well so can be portioned up for quick lunches, or chopped up ready for an express frittata mid week. Job done 😀

#foodiefriday Whenever you do a traditional roast, always try to cook an extra tray of baked Vege and extra steamed greens. After a crazy day at clinic (like today!) this gets defrosted and eaten with any turkey rissoles I have in the freezer too or the vegetables get chopped up and turned into a quick frittata. Forward plan your food prep 👍
