Tonight I volunteered to show the cub scouts how to make Bliss balls as a quick and healthy snack.

All were engaged and had some great questions for me. I gave them a taste test of some of the raw ingredients first. Trying cacao nibs were a hit.

Finding out how chocolate can be healthy!

Different shapes were created as not everyone wanted to make a ball shape. Some great creations.

So that's a wrap (or a salad) for my month's challenge of eating 10+ serves of veg a day!

I did realise that I don't eat as much veg as I thought when I was aiming for 5-6 cups per day to equal 10+ serves.

Some days, I'll be honest, I might have been lucky to hit 1 cup.

On average, though it was 4-5 cups a day. Some days more at around 7 cups a day!! 🙌

My example pics above included mix lettuce, baby spinach, rocket, king mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, seaweed salad mix, green beans, sugar snap peas, snow peas, radish, raw zucchini, red capsicum, sauerkraut.

I don't usually add a side salad to every dish, but this is becoming my new normal.

Snacking on raw veg was a great way to get extra in. Carrot sticks and sliced radish were my go tos (I eat a lot for radish!!).

Why did I do this?

🥒 To see how much veg I actually do eat
🥒 I wanted to optimise my health by getting extra vitamins, minerals and nutrients
🥒 To see how it might impact my blood sugar levels, satiety and energy.

Overall, it's been a positive experience! I will continue to aim for around 5 cups a day (or more).

How much veg do you eat?

*Thanks to for the inspo!! 🙏🥦🥬

Day 14 - 22 - 10+ serve veg challenge

So most days I have been averaging around 4-5 cups of veg (10+ serves is 5-6 cups).

I realised that my go tos to bulk out my meals more with veg is baby spinach or English spinach, mushrooms and lots of mixed lettuce.

Please send through some other ideas as I need more inspo or I'll never want to eat spinach and mushrooms again!!! 😫

In my pic is a super tasty veg and zucchini slice. Who else enjoys a good zucchini slice?

Why only tomatoes on one side? My family dont eat tomatoes 🍅

Post partum or the perinatal period (which can be up to 1 year after birth) can take a toll on a new mum. Sleep is usually being disturbed, there are new routines, if breastfeeding there is additional strain on the body.

Ensuring mums eat properly is an important aspect of this recovery time.

Protein is important, so including proteins like meat, eggs, fish and legumes should be included in each meal.

Good fats high in omega 3 can help with "baby brain". Include foods like salmon, mackerel, olives, olive oil, chia seeds, h**p seeds, pumpkin seeds or grass-fed beef or kangaroo.

Vegetables are also important including dark leafy greens, not only for fibre but all the nutrients that vegetables have to boost up your nutrition.

If you have had a baby and want to find out more how you can support your body in the recovery phase, then reach out.

Or if you haven't had a baby, but also interested in how nutrition can help you achieve your goals, reach out.

"Tale of two wolves

An old Cherokee told his Granson, 'My son, there is a battle between two wolves inside us all.

One is evil. It is anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy and truth.'

The boy thought about it, and asked, 'Grandfather, which wolf wins?'

The old man quietly replied, 'the one you feed.'" - Granite Recovery

Our Story

As a qualified nutritionist I can assist you with any health issue/concern you may have. I believe that good diet, exercise and lifestyle changes alone can often be enough to combat many illnesses and diseases with prevention always being better than cure. Many conditions can be triggered due to nutritional deficiencies and I like to focus on bringing these nutritional deficiencies into balance within the body using food as medicine, nutritional supplements, exercise and lifestyle prescriptions.

I consider good food and a healthy lifestyle as extremely important however so too is enjoying life, therefore achieving good health should be about creating a nutritional and lifestyle balance.

As a mother of two sons, this is even more important to me to provide a healthy diet and lifestyle for my growing family.

I like to help people achieve good health by equipping them with nutritional knowledge whilst also providing individually tailored dietary/lifestyle plans, cooking tips and recipes.
