Nutrient-dense Fried Rice

This recipe is a wonderful ‘easy dinner’ treat that can be whipped up in a jiffy. I made this for my mum and step dad last night and they raved about it. I love having the chance to get creative in the kitchen (with less parameters than normal) and last night was no exception.

Keto Muffins

You may remember this post where I shared that my healing (for lack of a better word) “journey” is changing directions. If not, you might like to go back and have a read.

Jaffa Euphoria Balls

Do you ever set out to make a basic recipe, only to be overwhelmed by an intuitive plea to modify the recipe to such an extent that you manifest an entirely original product?

I was just going to do a basic date, cashew and cacao wafer bliss ball recipe, but then I saw all the other ingredients in the pantry and completely changed my mind.

Sweet and Simple Green Coconut Smoothie

No rant today.

Behold potassium-rich, gut-loving, bowel-cleansing heaven in a glass. This is one of my favourite summer treats.

Beetroot Chippies

This recipe is one of my new favourites. Although beware. The beetroot will stain your hands something shocking. There are a gazillion things worse than flaunting pink-tinged flesh on your palms. I figure it’s a small price to pay.

Nifty Banana Muffins

I turned 19 yesterday (did I MENTION I have to walk with a cane now – jokes)

It was my first birthday on GAPS and as I’m still not vining with fruits or sugars (or even too many nuts). Raw cake wasn’t an option this year.  I genuinely didn’t mind. I was too busy cooking up delicious cauliflower mash/onion soup (leftover  mash blended with sautéed red onion, garlic, broth , tallow and pink salt) and GAPS muffins.

Rebecca’s broth

Last Thursday I was lucky enough to be cooked a delicious GAPS friendly meal by my friend Rebecca. She did a slow cooked beef roast with steamed veggies (cauliflower, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans) and roasted baby dutch carrots and butternut pumpkin. It was so special to be able to go somewhere for dinner and not have to take my own food. Thanks girl, I really appreciate it.

I Finally Made My Own Sauerkraut!

I’ve finally mustered up the confidence to make my own sauerkraut! I’ve heard scary things about fermenting your own cabbage – mainly that it can go very, very wrong and go off and smell all kinds of awful (like after your dad’s been to the bathroom – yep that kind of awful). But I figured if I can ferment my own cream then I can surely ferment some cabbage and I’ll never know until I try, right?

Thai green chicken soup

This soup is seriously good and a nice break from the regular appearances of pumpkin and cauliflower soup that tend to share the starring role in my kitchen. My mum (a non GAPS taste-tester I might add) had several soup-gasms whilst devouring this creamy bowl of yumminess.
