The Tastiest Veggie Stew

If your going down the meal prep road, first of all- fair play! It’s a great way to stay on track and a certain way to succeed in your 2016 food goals. To keep this up long term? Needs serious creativity when it comes to spices, herbs and combining flavours!

This recipe is great to prep this as your vegetable portion for meals or simply prepped on a bed of quinoa.

Pistachio, Orange & Ginger Hake

Wow, this is such a flavorsome dish! I love fish and eat it everyday, I only have one small issue sometimes white fish can be bland and needs help to get the most out of it. When shopping for fish I always go to a good fish mongers and wild hake is always on my list unfortunately one of the few fish left that’s wild and at a reasonably price. Now before you think this dish looks too fussy I swear it does not take any time at all! It would be a perfect dish to make for friends calling over or as a meal prep option it just has so much flavor, texture and visually its pretty nice too. I serve my fish with some cherry tomato on the vine which I placed on the baking tray along with the fish to bake, roasted sweet potato and fresh salad

Avocado & Egg Parma Parcels

The absolute ultimate breakfast, this is complete Avocado & Yolk Porn! The crisp outer layer of the parma matched with the soft texture of the avocado is deeply satisfying. If I could forever live on one egg recipe, this would be it. Although this recipe does require some skills from peeling the perfect egg to wapping the parma, its not rocket science! So don’t be afraid to give it a go. When I make it sometimes I put on 3 eggs just incase I mess up one…. nothing starts your day off bad like an egg that just won’t peel! I think this recipe is a fantastic dish to make for friends calling around for brunch or if you want to impress someone special!

Olive, Orange & Berry Spelt Muffins

The Perfect breakfast muffin, easy and tasty. I love using spelt flour its one of the only wheat flours I find I can easily tolerate and don’t feel sluggish after I indulge. Spelt has numerous health benefits from containing the full spectrum of all essential fatty acids, and often more minerals and vitamins than other wheat sources. Another plus to spelt is that is very accessible and there are tonnes of great producers of stoneground spelt. This recipe is an all in one mix simply using a mixing bowl and spoon. I used stevia in this recipe to keep the sugar content as low as possible so you’re not starting the day on a high- literally! -there is plenty of natural occurring sugars from the fresh berries and fresh orange. Olive Oil is one of the main ingredients here, make sure you are using a good quality olive oil as you will get a hint of the olive taste which pairs deliciously with the berries and orange.
