A Few of My Fave Anti-inflammatory Recipes

Most of my recipes are, at least to some extent, “anti-inflammatory.”

All whole foods are anti-inflammatory in one way or another.

  • Some are potent anti-inflammatories, containing compounds that actively reduce inflammation in the body, such as turmeric and it’s active compound curcumin
  • Others, such as berries and sweet spuds, contain antioxidants which fight pro-inflammatory free-radical damage
  • Then there are those that aren’t anti-inflammatory themselves, but are a great replacement for food-like substances that are.

A Day on my Plate – All The VEG!!!

It’s been a while since my last “a day on my plate” post and I figured, I’ve actually got time to do a blog post (this chicken is up-to-date with her uni assignments). Let’s take a peek at my veg-a-licious eats.

A Day On My Plate: Easy Faves

The thing that helps keep me on track with eating nutrient-dense meals is having key ingredients on hand. When we a) love a recipe, b) have the ingredients available to us, and c) find said recipe easy to prepare, we can say winner, winner broccoli for dinner!

Here’s what I’m obsessed with lately …

A Day On My Plate: My Latest Obsessions

Ages ago (and I mean ages), I wrote this post where I was all like “I’m going to do a regular-ish post series sharing what I eat from day to day, because I find what others eat fascinating and figured maybe you do too”.  I got the idea from Megan and her “what I ate Wednesday” posts. Is it totally tragic that I enjoy perving on what she’s been eating of late? Don’t answer that.

“Banana-Cake Batter” In-A-Jar Dessert

I don’t always use the phrase “BOMB DIGGITY”, but when I do it’s because of taste sensations like this super-easy dessert “parfait”.

This baby only features two ingredients, but the technique and uh-maz-zing flavour combo is the absolute shizzle, I’m not even exaggerating when I say that it honestly tastes like banana cake batter. Who doesn’t love eating cake batter by the spoonful?

A Day On My Plate

A blogger fave of mine, Megan from detoxinista.com, writes regular posts entitled; What I Ate, where she shares photos and explanations of what she’s eating lately. I find it weirdly fascinating to take a glimpse at someone else’s nutrition habits. I’m guessing this strange interest is what makes me cut out to be a nutritionist.

Bang-For-Your-Buck Raw Vegan Protein “Peanut Butter” Brownies (nut-free)

Damn that title is long. But I couldn’t just say “boring old brownies”. No point of difference there. I couldn’t simply label them “raw vegan chocolate brownies” – the internet has enough of those making the rounds at the minute. I needed to add in the (nut-free) specification, because although these treats smell like they have peanut butter in them (thanks to to addition of inca inchi seeds), I assure you they don’t – hence air quoted “peanut butter”. I like the bang-for-your-buck prefix because it’s playful and sums the recipe up dandily.

Inca What?

My new favourite food is the inca inchi seed. I am so glad that Cyndi O’Meara from Changing Habits has gone to the effort of making this delicious nutritional powerhouse available to the everyday Australian.

I don’t loosely use the term “superfood” because frankly, most real  foods are “super” in their own right. However, this seed is pretty damn special, whether we dub it with the “super” label or not.

Fudgy Protein Balls

I’ve just purchased inca inchi protein powder because with my gallbladder attacks of last year putting me off virtually all animal products (nothing like almost choking on chicken and mayo salad vomit to put you off meat, eggs and oil for a while) I’m in desperate need of vegan sources of “complete” protein. I tried adding it to my pumpkin “custard” last night and it wasn’t glorious.
