As I started to research into the hormone space a few years ago, it became clear to me that many hormone experts, who I love and have learned a lot
I am sure I am not the only one that used to grab one of those supermarket mud cakes from Woolworths or coles. All my friends used to eat these,
After ovulation, the ovary begins to secrete progesterone. The luteal phase is a progesterone dominant phase. During this phase, appetite increases quite noticeably. Studies have shown it is completely normal
I was visiting a friend’s house a while ago who randomly told me that you can make arancini balls with leftover risotto. Its something that I had never considered before
Every year just before Halloween I see the internet explode with a bunch of pumpkin recipes coming from America. I can’t get over how many sweet things make with pumpkin.
We absolutely love patties in our family. I think its the perfect way to pack in different vegetables, legumes and wholegrains in a compact little size. Patties have got to
The inspiration for this recipe came from a random discovery that walnuts have quite a lot of omega 3. I always knew walnuts contained omega 3 but I didn’t know
It has taken me a few goes to get a carrot cake oatmeal right. My first two goes were ok but the carrot ended up being too crunchy and it
I am really into rose flavoured desserts lately. I typically use rose water on my skin because it is said to help with lots of skin-related issues. Rose is also
I’m not really sure what to call this dish. I think its more of a rice side dish that would traditionally be eaten with meat, but we like to eat
I used to make vegetarian nachos all the time when I was younger. Except back then I just used store-bought salsa, no beans, and quite a lot of cheese! When
As I dive deeper into the hormone space, I want to write more and more articles around hormone health and balancing, but it is hard to do so when there
I love veggie sausage rolls. They are a serious craving of mine. I’ve been obsessed with them ever since buying them at the canteen in highschool. They are my favourite
This is my homemade version of baked beans. I'm not sure if it is very authentic, because there is no baking involved. I have always gotten a little grossed out by baked beans on toast, only because the only version I was exposed to was the canned version.
I am actually on a mission to add more types of whole grains into my diet more consistently, hence why I also added buckwheat to this recipe. I love buckwheat because its a good source of magnesium. I have currently taken to cooking up a big batch of whole grains and freezing them. I do a big batch of millet, buckwheat, and quinoa as well as brown rice.
Paring it with the magnesium from the raw cacao and almonds as well as the b vitamins found in sunflower seeds means that this dessert is wonderful for building healthy neurotransmitters and boost mood (most chocolate does that). The added bonus of fresh raspberries adds extra antioxidants and vitamin c. I particularly love my fresh Aussie raspberries from Perfection Fresh, that I get from my local Aldi down to the road.
This cake is one of my most favourite recipes because it's so heavy on the chocolate! I really enjoyed having it in my freezer and munching away at it after the workshop, it was also really handy to have to serve to guests.
I have tried a few vegan brownies over the years and I am most excited about this recipe. Not only does it contain no flour so it is completely gluten-free, texture-wise it is the most legitimate brownie I have made to date. It tastes just like a less sweet version of a traditional brownie
I have experimented with chia pudding a fair bit over the years and was never quite happy with all the different ways to make chia pudding. Chia pudding is usually eaten for breakfast but most recipes I have seen called for a plant milk base and quite frankly it is just not filling enough or flavourful enough.
I have been a little slow to the game and never owned a rice cooker until now, but I am so glad I waited because this rice cooker serves as the perfect machine for easy set and forget one-pot meals.
