We enjoyed getting our fingers green yesterday and planted few things including lettuce, tomatoes, corn, cucumber, courgettes, peppers and herbs.

Looking forward to the harvest already 😉

They turned out pretty well and taste so much better than the shop bought. It's definitely our new Easter tradition!

Happy Easter!

💚 Making pancakes with my boy makes me happy.
💚 Seeing him enjoying time in the kitchen makes me happy.
💚 Looking at his excited face just before he tucked in makes me happy.
💚 Him telling me that this was his favourite breakfast in a looong time makes me happy.

Happy Shrove Tuesday everyone!

My recipe:
1 cup spelt flour

Topings: limitless possibilities but make sure you squeeze a bit of lemon juice over-this truly elevates any pancake 😉

Brexit is unfortunately not just about the economy. Environment, food chain and supply and ultimately our health will be impacted too. Only time will tell.

What does fibre have to do with hormonal balance? ❓

It helps to move things along the digestive tract, ensuring old hormones are cleared away, instead of building up and causing hormonal imbalance symptoms including low energy, mood swings, weight gain, skin problems, joint aches and PMS.

Apart from wholegrains, vegetables are the top fibre source. If you can work on one thing, try to include vegetables at every meal. 🍅🥕🥦🍄🌽

Roasting is a great and easy way to increase your veggie intake. Last night I chopped peppers, courgettes and cherry tomatoes, coated them with olive oil and seasoned with flaked sea salt. It was bursting with flavour and was served with our roast dinner.👌

Do you use saffron in your cooking? This most expensive spice in the world is packed with antioxidants, has anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer properties and can help regulate mood and decrease depression. 👍

It adds lovely red colour to dishes and deep, warm, earthy flavour. 🥘

This Vegetable Brown Saffron is really simple to make. Let few strands of saffron infuse in a bit of warm water. Sautee chopped vegetables of your choice in olive oil (onion, garlic, pepper, courgette, mushrooms, carrots, sweetcorn or green beans work well), add cooked brown rice, saffron liquid, stir to warm through and serve. You can sprinkle cheese in, add beans or pieces of cooked meat or fish too. Enjoy! 👌

Being in nature is my therapy! 🏞

There is a lot about boosting immunity in the media at the moment. Beeing outdoors is as equally important as healthy diet, sleep, exercise and positive thinking. ✴

It reduces stress and benefits physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. 🌟🙏

So put your walking boots on, wrap up and get outside to soak in the gorgeous colours of autumn 🍂🍁, catch a glimpse of sunshine🌞, marvel at amazing natural wonders and give your lungs, muscles, brain and heart a little workout. 👍

Do you know that cooked tomatoes are more beneficial to your health than raw tomatoes? 🍅

I am talking about lycopene, powerful antioxidant, that gives tomatoes its red colour. Cooking doubles lycopene levels and improves body's ability to ward off free radicals that can create oxidative stress that is linked to premature ageing, inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, as well as chronic disease including hear disease, diabetes 2, Alzheimer's and cancer.

Try this simple Sundried Tomato Spread/Dip. Drain a jar of sundried tomatoes and blend with fresh basil leaves, cream cheese (I used non-dairy), seasoning and squeeze of lemon juice.

You can spread it, dip it or even use it as pasta sauce. Delicious! 👌

Zinc is an essential mineral that not only supports immune system function, helps with wound healing, reduces inflammation but also is a part of many enzymes that we need for growth and repair and other metabolic processes.

It can be found in meats, fish, seafood, beans, wholegrains and nuts and seeds like pumpkin.

I put handful of pumpkin seeds in my porridge. You can also use them as a topping for dishes including salad and soup. They are delicious roasted too. They are also full of antioxidants, fibre and magnesium. 👍
