I have never made Fudge before, so I was excited to give it a crack. After Googling some basic fudge recipes, I got creative in the kitchen and came up with this concoction and it literally is one of the best things I have ever made! It does need to be kept in the freezer or fridge as it melts very quickly! I used my favourite functional foods cinnamon, maca powder, turmeric, ginger, peanuts and cacao.

Autumn in Sydney brings us Broccoli, Pumpkin, Potatoes, Kiwi Fruit and Bok Choy.  I like to eat seasonally when I can as it is lower in cost, tastier and has a much higher nutrient content as the produce is freshly picked and hasn’t had to travel as far. Here is an outline of the some of the ingredients and their nutritional benefits.

I’m a big fan of sweet and savoury dishes (I’m a pineapple on your pizza girl!) and I was craving food that was warm and nourishing, but that also had a hint of sweetness.  

Growing up in the UK I was very spoilt with delicious curries and I always struggle to find a good curry here in Sydney. One of my favourite curries is Butter Chicken, but restaurant versions can be made with a lot of vegetable oil.  One rainy afternoon I had a real craving for a good old curry and decided to experiment with all the ingredients in my house. I ended up making one of my best dishes!

One of my favourite superfoods is turmeric. Its history lies in India and Southeast Asia, where it has been used in cooking, and for its therapeutic benefits for thousands of years, particularly in Ayurvedic medicine.

These protein bars are super easy to make and are delicious! Unlike many of the store-bought protein bars, these are completely natural. They are also great to have pre or post-workout, as the banana is full of potassium, manganese and carbohydrates, which aids muscle function, bone development, metabolism and provides energy...

These brownies are so good to make on a rainy afternoon or for an afternoon sweet treat. This one is made with a heap of healing foods-  chia seeds, linseeds, maca powder, cinnamon, ginger, nut butter and cacao- with lots of creamy coconut goodness thrown in.

Smoothies are a great way to start the day, especially for anyone that struggles to get enough greens and fibre into their day, and who doesn’t love a good smoothie? 

This smoothie is divine and is very nutrient dense.

It is spring which means it is beetroot season! Anyone who knows me, knows just how much I love beetroot. Beetroot is also one of the worlds healthiest foods as they are anti-inflammatory, high in antioxidants and they detox the body

An important part of wellness a is our senses. It is through our senses; seeing, touching, smelling, tasting and moving that we come to know and enjoy everything in our lives. Spending time tuning into our senses not only increases our wellness, but also lets us tap into our creative sides. One of my favourite sensing activities is a mindfulness walk. It has had a huge impact on my wellness so I would like to share with you my mini-guide so you can get started too!

This green juice is perfect for those days when you just don’t feel like eating a ton of veggies. It is also my secret hangover cure! I always have one of these after a night out drinking

When I first moved to Sydney I became obsessed with banana bread. I literally could not get enough of it and I was eating it every day… then went on a mission to create my own version , just with a lot less sugar! This recipe packs a protein punch too.

Rhubarb is one of my favourite winter vegetables. Warm yourself up with this nourishing crumble.

Self-care is about self-respect, increasing your awareness, and showing love, compassion and understanding of yourself. Most importantly, it’s about doing what is right for you - prioritising your needs and putting yourself first so that you can flourish on your wellness journey.
