It’s less than a week till Easter Sunday so getting prepared with these delicious and easy to make chocolate truffle and peanut butter Easter egg cups.

Some chocolate facts for you...

The Olmecs of Mexico were the first civilisation to use the cocoa beans which grew wild in Central America 3500 years ago.

The Mayans were the first to roast and grind cocoa beans and mix in vanilla, chilli and spices to make a cold bitter drink.

Aztecs used the drink as part of their religious ceremonies as they thought it gave them spiritual wisdom, energy and enhanced sexual powers. Aztecs also used cacao beans as currency. Aztecs were the first to purport that cacao had aphrodisiac properties.

Although Britain has the 7th highest consumption of chocolate in the world, in Britain we eat an estimated 660,900 tonnes of chocolate a year, an average of 11kg per person per year. That actually equates to around 3 bars a week 😁

But remember to stick to good quality, high cacao content chocolate that has not been exposed to high temperatures and is refined sugar free which provides greater health benefits and of course all those amazing minerals and nutrients and neurotransmitters.

Chocolate Truffle & Peanut Butter Easter Egg Cups

100g dark chocolate (melted) I like to use their 72% or 90% dark chocolate

Filling
4 tbsp Peanut butter
2 tbsp cacao powder
1-2 tsp maple syrup

2 tbsp peanut butter

Head on over to my website for the full recipe and don’t forget to save, share and comment! And please do tag me in if you make these moorish Easter eggs 🐣

Life would be pretty boring if we couldn’t eat the foods we love! And eating well doesn’t mean you have to avoid certain foods or restrict what you eat!

It’s all about balance and yes that is different for everyone, but enjoying food, not stressing over macros or counting calories. If we all ate the same and exercised the same...we would still all look different so why do so many so called diets and fad diets expect everyone to eat the same foods, eat the same amount of calories and avoid the same foods.

That’s why I use the balance approach for each and every one of my clients who come to me confused and struggling to understand what works for them. By finding that individual balance using certain tools can really help to gain that confidence around food, and find balance with weight, hormones and gut health.

But it’s not always an individual journey, by including family into it can help to make it fun and enjoyable! No one likes to watch people eating the foods you crave! Make it possible to enjoy the foods you love...including pizza and chocolate!

Did you know that two thirds of women are on a diet most of the time...meaning that many are restricting the foods they eat, causing possible hormonal imbalances, weight fluctuations, nutrient deficiencies and gut issues but this is why I developed the Nourish & Balance Program to give people the tools they need to take control of their health and wellbeing, enjoy food, find balance and have the tools you need for life long balance.

The Program includes Weekly Modules as well as delicious recipes, weekly check ins, lifestyle tasks, and continued online support throughout.

Places are limited so book you spot and begin your journey to balance and wellbeing.

It’s almost Easter and I’m definitely in chocolate mode...anyone else?

Easter doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy eating the chocolate, you all know my love of cacao and it’s amazing health benefits.

Cacao is loaded with antioxidants and has 40x the concentration of antioxidants than blueberries.

Cacao has the highest plant based source of magnesium which is needed for over 300 chemical reactions within the body including supporting heart health, energy production, muscle relaxation, helps turn glucose into energy enabling your brain to work with clarity and focus, and support blood sugar balance.

Cacao also contains 4 amazing mood boosting chemicals serotonin, tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylethylamine, which can help with those feelings of happiness and wellbeing as well as alleviating symptoms of depression.

And not forgetting the high concentration of plant based iron with a whopping 7.3mg per 100g.

Add this to the amazing ingredients packed into these pancakes...spinach, ginger, courgette and pear along with the oat flour and some protein rich peanut butter for added richness you have yourself a nutrient packed breakfast.

I honestly couldn’t think of a better way to start to the weekend 🧡

Keeping healthy during lockdown

This lockdown has brought about its own challenges with it being winter, lack of sunlight, wet weather so making sure to keep healthy is vital for our ongoing health and mental health.

There are some things that we can all do to help get through the darker days during lockdown.

1. Eat nourishing foods...eating whole natural and unprocessed foods can support brain health, provide us with the amazing nutrients that our body needs, support our immune system and help support our mental health. Sugar and refined foods can actually suppress the immune system, can cause havoc on our blood sugar levels, disrupt out sleep and cause mood fluctuations.

2. Eat the rainbow...not only is it great for your health but also for our soul! Eating a wide variety of vegetables and fruit each day can help support brain, heart, gut, immune, hormonal health as well as providing all those amazing minerals and nutrients. Aim for at least 8 a day with the majority being vegetables!

3. Get outdoors! Being in fresh air has actually been shown to support and improve the immune system, can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Getting out for a walk, bike ride, jump on the trampoline and it’s the kid’s, go for a run (my least favourite 🤣) is all ways to be outside and can help to improve our sleep quality too!

4. Rest...yes we are allowed to do that! Although society is programming us to think that rest is laziness, it’s not! Our body needs time to recharge and help to destress! So take some time out for you! Have quiet time, read a book, meditate, take a warm bath, whatever you like to do to relax enjoy the time away from social media, TV, life! It’s about recharging so that we don’t end up running on empty.

5. Do something you enjoy! Finding something joyful in this madness can be really helpful for our mental health...so you want to bake your 5th banana bread, or you have taken up journaling, photography or something else, do what makes you happy, that keeps your mind busy and joyful! It’s about the little things that will help you to cope with the every day stresses of lockdown.

6. Sleep...yes this is vital for our overall health....sleep is vital for our mental health, allowing our body to rest and restore.
Sleepless nights are a form of chronic stress that can actually shrink our hippocampus, the memory centre of the brain, which is why we can sometimes become forgetful. And that when we are stressed, it actually depletes our vitamin C levels within the body repressing our immune system and can also break down the lining of the gut.

So making sure we add in some good quality sleep can dramatically improve our mental health, focus, immune system and wellbeing.
