Nutritional Therapist and Chef taking a fresh look at what 'healthy' actually is, offering individual consultations, sharing my handcrafted recipes and demystifying the sometimes confusing world of nutritional science. Natural Nourishment began to mark my own journey of discovery with natural health and the many mistakes I made based on the swathes of confusing and often incorrect information avai

lable on the topic. By sharing my experiences I hoped to break down the barriers and lay bare the truth in a factually correct but lighthearted manner, making the science behind nutrition approachable to all. Following my qualification as a Nutritional Therapist I now have the pleasure of also offering individual consultations, in a addition to personalised meal planning and recipe development services. It is my belief that we can all optimise our health by nourishing our bodies with natural, whole foods, without compromising on flavour and most importantly the joy that great tasting food brings! My approach involves utilising fabulous ingredients, alternative methods and positive lifestyle choices to support you on your personal path towards long term, whole body well being. Tied in with this is the hopeful avoidance of disease but if such issues do arise then I will also look to provide a natural alternative or adjunct form of health promotion. I hope regular posts on a variety of subjects (with even more regular new recipe updates) will hopefully keep you entertained whilst I continue to transform Natural Nourishment into its full all singing, all dancing self, if there is anything I fail to touch on that you would like me to address please feel free to comment or message me.

REMINDER 👉🏻 REAL PEOPLE REPEAT THE FOOD THEY EAT 🤯 And this comes from someone with an EXTENSIVE knowledge of the benefits of what an optimal diet would be + a SIGNIFICANT love of cooking 🙏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The suggestion (possibly incited by the many unrealistic ‘what I eat in a day’ posts 🫠) that we need to CONSTANTLY change our meals is NONSENSE 🤫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So if that’s ever left you feeling overwhelmed I’m here to tell you to IGNORE THAT sense of pressure🙅🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To use myself as an example, this week I’ve eaten these 5 low effort meals over & over again, & I am DELIGHTED 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
MY WEEK IN MEALS 👩🏻‍🍳
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most recipes are on my website, comment LINK & I’ll DM them to you 😊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
BREAKFAST - 2 egg + 3 egg white omelette + herbs, rocket & avo
LUNCH - meal prep baked salmon & coconut rice OR herb falafel & roasted veggie bowl with tahini sauce
DINNER - my ‘Love Me’ beef stew + bone broth potato puree OR pesto pasta with green beans & roast chicken (not shown here)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’d love to know if you struggled with this OR if you’ve found your favourites & cycle through them do let me know what they are🫶🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HAPPY SATURDAY 😘

IF YOU CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT FOOD 🥺 You’re either….
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣Under eating generally
2️⃣Under eating certain nutrients (too little protein/fat/carbs or ratios out of balance)
3️⃣Eating meals you think you should rather than what you actually enjoy
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also let me just say I’VE BEEN THERE but now I make sure to consider my meals a celebration, I eat enough & I purposefully make things I love which means they satisfy me & then I move on with my day 🤸🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me know if you’re struggling with a plague of constant food thoughts in the comments & I’ll do my best to help free you from those ⛓️⛓️‍💥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And if you want to join me in unadulterated delicious joy find the recipe for this beautiful meal below 👩🏻‍🍳 It’s my current favourite breakfast after I swim when I want something easy to digest but bountifully nutritious 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
MACROS (if served with 100g each steamed rice & broccoli) 👉🏻 350kcal | 30g protein | 39g carb | 10g fat
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HAPPY THURSDAY 😘
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
{SIMPLE STEAMED EGGS} per portion  2 beaten eggs  Warm water - double volume of the beaten eggs (weigh your beaten eggs in grams, then use double that amount in ml of water)
Pinch of salt 1 tablespoon spring onion - finely chopped  2 teaspoons tamari  1 teaspoon sesame oil
100g deveined & peeled prawns
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pour water into the eggs, add salt & mix.
Pour through a sieve into a bowl, sprinkle on the spring onion.
Prepare your steamer - I use my Always pan with the steamer basket but you can use a regular pan with an upturned bowl in the bottom to rest your dish on so it’s not in the water.
Cover & steam for 7 mins then add the prawns to the top & steam for a further 3 mins.
Serve drizzled with tamari & sesame oil.

EATING BEFORE EXERCISE 🔥 Hello potential confusion central but never fear things are about to get SUPER clear 😎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Getting your pre workout fuelling right will 👇🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥇Optimise performance when exercising
💪🏻Increase the physical benefits of exercise
🐰Avoid energy crashes & cravings
🛡️Prevent injury
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
NOW THE HOW 💡
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are 3 key components to consider here👇🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣When you are eating in relation to exercise - the closer to exertion the easier access you need that energy to be.
2️⃣What kind of activity you are going to do - sustained endurance & explosive power vs lower intensity need different support.
3️⃣How long is that activity for - if you’re exceeding 60-75 mins sustained exertion you’ll either need to pre-fuel more significantly or top up on fuel during. Give time to eat properly &/or use a carb drink/gels during. I suggest the range (comment LINK & I’ll DM to you)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⏱️WHEN YOU ARE EATING
30-60 MINS PRE - small overall portion, mainly simple carbs, with low fibre, minimal protein & fat. Soft fruit, a rice cake with a smidge of nut butter/tahini + jam or honey, or a glass of juice.
60-90 MINS PRE - still small portion but slightly slower release carbs like oats or toast + a little more protein/fat. A small bit of yoghurt + a bit of granola or a light smoothie.
90+ MINS PRE - normal meal portion but not too high in fat or fibre. Porridge with protein powder & fruit, eggs on toast,
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🏋🏻‍♀️TYPE OF ACTIVITY
HIIT, CrossFit, Weight training, Running, Swimming, Spinning etc - need to be fuelled before hand
Yoga, Pilates, gentle walking, low intensity cardio

CREATE A STATE OF CREDIT. THEN JUST LIVE 🙏🏻 My approach to health in a sentence ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Scroll ⬇️ for this recipe but 1st SOME WORDS 🎙️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Being healthy is often over complicated when in actual fact it comes down to 4 key things 👇🏻
😴 Allowing ourselves time to rest & sleep.
💦 Giving our body enough water so it can function well.
🍲Eating foods in as close to their natural state as possible. Nothing fancy, just real food.
🚶‍♀️‍➡️Moving our body in a kind way every day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2️⃣ It’s not about doing everything, it’s about repeating what you CAN do for prolonged periods. When you have space to do something new, do it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3️⃣ You don’t have to constantly change to progress. A new solution isn’t always the answer.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4️⃣ If you can’t get to grips with the points in number 1 then you can ignore all suggestions of cold plunges, saunas, fasting & superfood powders flying around. It would be like painting a house before you’ve put the windows in.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HAPPY THURSDAY 😘

WHY I EAT WHITE POTATOES EVERYDAY 🤩 It’s such a weird one but SO many people think white potatoes are bad or that they’ll cause weight gain however the OPPOSITE is true & here’s why 👇🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Potatoes, the most basic, unfussy white chaps, are ACTUALLY the MOST satisfying food there is 🥳 And yes this is a properly science backed fact ✌🏻 [Comment LINK & I’ll send you the journal I took this data from 📑]
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁉️WHAT DOES THIS MEAN⁉️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Basically per serving of potatoes you will get MORE & LONGER LASTING fullness for a smaller number of calories due to their fibre & resistant starch content 🔥 This is not about turning food into numbers, it’s about hacking the system so you can lose or manage your weight WITHOUT feeling hungry all the time 👏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You also feed your gut bacteria, balance your blood sugar & encourage better eating habits overall by avoiding any sense of deprivation within your diet 👌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Obviously not all preparation methods are created equal so you want to KEEP SKINS ON then choose:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥔BAKED
🥔BOILED/BOILED THEN MASHED/SMASHED
🥔STEAMED
🥔BRAISED
🥔AIR FRIED
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The extra tit bit to enhance these babies EVEN MORE is to cook & then cool them - ideally leave them in the fridge for 3-4 days as this makes them develop more resistant starch 👍🏻 I always prepare a whole array of potatoes at the weekend & then just eat them over the week 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These examples are:
1️⃣Roasted for 1 hour in a 190C oven
2️⃣Boiled for 8-9 mins then smashed & crisped in a 200C oven for 15 mins
3️⃣Boiled then tossed with olive oil, herbs & red onion
4️⃣Air fried at 200C for 15 mins
5️⃣Air fried at 200C for 40 mins
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So who’s about to start celebrating the humble spud a bit more❓
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
HAPPY MONDAY 😘

STRATEGIES FOR SEASONAL OVERWHELM 🙏🏻 My clients have been feeling it, I’ve been feeling it & I’ll guess some of you have been feeling it to 😮‍💨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Individual presentations will differ but common signs would be 👇🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍 Mental fatigue & low motivation
🤍 Difficulty sleeping, waking feeling tired
🤍 Being unable to settle but also unable to get back into a routine
🤍 A heightened sense of generalised anxiety
🤍 A feeling of dread around normal responsibilities or self expectations
🤍 Muscle/body aches, headaches
🤍 Heartburn, bloating & IBS
🤍 Weight gain &/or comfort eating behaviours
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What many forget as Spring unfurls around us is that it’s actually the END OF WINTER, where we have established specific routines to cope with the dark, the cold & all that brings 📋
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now we have brighter mornings, longer days & a time change……& our current life blueprint NO LONGER FITS 🗺️ Which = a really intense sense of disconnection with ourselves 😵‍💫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁉️SO HOW DO WE FIX IT⁉️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Structure gentle change - be proactive & make decisions ahead of time. Meals, exercise, free time, ideally in a visual way so you can quite clearly see things laid out over time. I like big wall planners 🤩
2️⃣ Prioritise multi-form rest - physical, mental, emotional, sensory, creative, social & spiritual. Gift yourself the opportunity to settle & come out of your winter cacoon! Both & have great posts on this.
3️⃣ Reconnect with nature - get outside & get your skin on natural surfaces (🦶on 🌾) stare at the sky (no 🕶️ or🧢!!) to reconfigure that bond with the season we’re now in.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me know if this resonates with you & comment EGGS for the recipe for these tea dyed beauties!

HAPPY MONDAY 😘

SWEET TREATS YOU CAN ALWAYS EAT 😍 Sweet foods AREN’T actually bad for us, what we have is an issue where our ability to appreciate NATURALLY sweet foods has been distorted 🤪

HOWEVER if you switch out added sugars, sweeteners & artificially flavoured foods your taste will RESET in 7 DAYS 🤯

And this recipe is a perfect example of something truly delicious & naturally sweet that will help you to get there ❤️

2 SIMILAR LOOKING MEALS, 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT METABOLIC STORIES 🧐
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The meal proportions for balanced blood sugar, stable energy & a happy body is protein>carbs>fat FYI 🥇
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now before anyone gets upset 🤫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣This is NOT a post slamming plant based eating
2️⃣I am not about to encourage you to weigh your food
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What I DO want to highlight is the importance of understanding the amount of protein RELATIVE to the portion sizes of foods ⚖️ Many things contain protein but HOW MUCH have you got to eat to meet the usual 30-40g per meal target❓
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
SOME EXAMPLE NUMBERS FOR YOU👇🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
100g chicken breast = 23g protein | 0g carbs | 3g fat
100g 5% fat beef = 20g protein | 0g carbs | 4g fat
100g 0% cottage cheese = 10g | 2g carbs | 0g fat
100g tofu = 8g protein | 2g carbs | 5g fat
100g lentils = 12g protein | 13g carbs | 1g fat
100g quinoa = 4g protein | 21g carbs | 2g fat
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So as you can see protein DENSITY in animal foods is a lot higher, whereas plant proteins contain MORE CARBS relative to their protein content 🧐 This means you’ll need to eat LARGER AMOUNTS of plant proteins to achieve your needs + satiety, & getting that ratio of a meal overall can be tougher 🥗 This can often be a reason for bloating, gas & constipation as well, because there’s just more digestive work to be done!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My sincere apologies if this has thrown a spanner into the works as YES portion sizes count BUT proportions of nutrients within a food ACTUALLY count more 🫣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

HAPPY MONDAY 😘

HAPPY FRIDAY 😘

MACRO BREAKDOWN per portion 364kcal|12g fat|26g carbs|36g protein|6.5g fibre (if served with 150g steamed broccoli)

{PERFECT FISH PIE} Serves 4

MY TOP 4 BLOAT FREE DIPS 🤩 If beans don’t suit (cos they make you toot) then this is usually due to an inability to adequately break down the fibre they contain😖
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That’s a tale for me to fix another day (comment LINK for a secret trick to try in the meantime) BUT FOR NOW here are my favourite bean free options that provide oodles of flavour, plenty of protein (see pinned comment for note on this!) & an abundance of nourishment too💃🏻

ALL FOODS FIT, IF THEY FILL YOU UP 😍 Have you ever noticed that some foods/meals actually make you MORE hungry after you eat them⁉️

This is because satisfaction from foods is actually pretty UNRELATED to total calories (another nail in that coffin 🤞🏻) & many things can offer a significant number of calories but with insufficient protein & fibre to keep you full 🙏🏻 Which means a quick return to needing to eat which we would want to avoid🤨

A classic Caesar salad would be a perfect example with an average macronutrient breakdown of 👉🏻 ~633kcal | 35g fat | 39g carbs | 39g protein | 4g fibre

Key points being equal protein to carbs to fat (you’d want pro>carb>fat) & tiny amounts of fibre which = low satiety for@high energy density (calorie content)

COMPARE THAT TO MINE NOW 👉🏻 534kcal | 25g fat (with Parmesan & avocado) | 22g carbs | 46.5g protein | 25g fibre

Basically teacher’s pet vibes comparatively 😎🤣

Let me know if you have any questions ✌🏻Comment RECIPE for the full details of this beauty 💃🏻

HAPPY WEDNESDAY 😘

{CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD SUPREME} Serves 2
Chicken breast
Boiled eggs
Avocado
Celery
Courgette
Sourdough bread or boiled potatoes
Romaine lettuce
Parmesan shavings

DRESSING - 0% fat organic yoghurt, anchovies, Dijon mustard, garlic, lemon juice, Parmesan, black pepper

A NUTRITIONIST’S FAVOURITE CHEAT MEAL 🍲

By which I mean my favourite throw together dinner that relies on the brilliance of a couple of shortcuts because let’s face it even I DON’T ALWAYS MAKE EVERYTHING FROM SCRATCH 🤯

This BEAUTIFUL ramen literally comes together in 15 minutes thanks to the Tonkotsu broth (HELLO flavour 💣), the worlds SIMPLEST quick pickled cucumber garnish, a light sear on some SENSATIONAL steak & a bit of noodly doodling (the technical term 😏)

Cos that’s the GREAT thing about great ingredients 👉🏻 they do ALL of the hard work for you 🥳

RECIPE BELOW, let me know if you’re going to make it & if you have a similar failsafe favourite 🙏🏻

HAPPY THURSDAY 😘

{15 MINUTE STEAK RAMEN} per portion
3-4 cauliflower florets
1 carrot or golden beetroot (I like mine as noodles but you can just slice them) OR a big handful of stir fry veg
70g soba noodles
400ml Tonkotsu bone broth
100-120g hanger or onglet steak (I tend to buy their steak box. Code NATNOURISH gives 10% off)

CUCUMBER SALAD - 1 cucumber, juice of a lime, 2 tsps each rice vinegar & tamari, 1 tsp sesame oil, sprinkle sesame seeds, fresh coriander

Prep the salad - slice the cucumbers thinly or use a veg peeler. Toss with the dressing & leave to sit.
Preheat a large frying pan, season your steak & then press down onto the hot pan & seal so it’s well caramelised on all sides. Remove & leave to rest for 5 mins.
Meanwhile cook your noodles in boiling water.
Add cauliflower & bone broth to a small pan, gently simmer with a lid on for 2-3 mins.
Slice your steak into strips, it’ll be pretty rare! Get your pan nice & hot again then quickly seal the strips on the sliced sides.
Add noodles to a bowl followed by broth + cauliflower, noodly veg & your perfect steak pieces. Top with cucumber & fresh coriander.
Dive in!
