your december reminder to stop + look around 💫

04/12/2025

Hi Facebook, it's been a while but I'm back & officially seeing 1-1 nutrition clients again 🥹

I have a few slots left in December - which might not seem like the obvious time to start working on your nutrition but in my opinion, is actually the perfect time to help you:

🫩 Support end-of-year burnout
🍾 Maintain balance through the festive season (healthy, balanced eating doesn't have to be perfect!)
💚 Build a stronger foundation for 2026

Things I can help with:
- Food intolerances/sensitivities
- Digestive issues (IBS, IBD, bloating, irregular bowel movements)
- Hormonal issues (PMS, PMDD, PCOS, irregular periods + other menstrual irregularities, low libido + more)
- Headaches
- Fatigue, burnout, brain fog
& lots more

If you’d like to work together or have any questions, send me a message or book a free health clarity call via this link: https://my.practicebetter.io/ #/63a3913b11175a3b0bd37b4b/bookings

"Your weekly shop is your opportunity to give yourself the building blocks for healthy, gut-loving meals and snacks throughout the week. A little thought and pre-planning can go a long way but at the same time, leave room for flexibility so you can listen to what your body intuitively wants to eat, be inspired by the seasons and try new things".

If you want to improve your overall health, improving your gut health is one of the first things you should look at. Making healthier choices when it comes to the foods you eat is a good place to start, and healthier food choices start in the supermarket! Your weekly shop is your opportunity to give...

Quinoa porridge topped with chai-soaked figs, coconut yoghurt, toasted walnuts and sliced apple 🍏

What are the benefits of using quinoa instead of (or in combination with) oats in your porridge?

💪 Protein: quinoa is slightly higher in protein than oats and contains a wider range of amino acids (the building blocks of protein), so it’s an easy way to increase your intake of bioavailable protein from your first meal of the day

🐛 Gut health: it’s also high in fibre to support gut health and enhance microbial diversity along the digestive tract

🩸 More blood sugar friendly: because it’s higher in protein and fibre, quinoa has less of an effect on blood sugar. Having it with healthy fats like coconut yoghurt, nuts and seeds will flatten blood sugar spikes even further

🌿 Nutrient-dense: contains other key nutrients such as copper, magnesium, iron and zinc which are essential for a healthy body and mind

It’s also gluten-free so can be enjoyed by those avoiding/limiting gluten.

👩‍🍳 Tips for cooking quinoa:

- It’s a good idea to soak and rinse quinoa before cooking as it contains compounds called anti-nutrients which can inhibit the absorption of certain nutrients

- Soak it overnight in a pan, rinse and drain in the morning and cook with 3/4 cup water per cup quinoa until soft and fluffy

- I always make extra to add to porridge, salads and stir-fries for the next few days.

This particular porridge is made using Hodmedod UK-grown (yay) quinoa, with dried figs, soaked overnight in a locally-made chai tea blend, toasted walnuts and a dollop of Cocos Organic coconut yoghurt, and almost everything is from my local refill store.

A delicious and nutritionally-balanced soup that will warm you from the inside out 🧡

Many soups, while delicious, are lacking in protein and fat, making them more of a snack than a complete meal. This creamy and delicious soup is packed with fibre, plant-based protein and healthy fats, it also contains ginger to aid digestion and turmeric which has a potent anti-inflammatory action in the body and brain. The addition of the nuts and beans means that the soup is not only creamy but packed with healthy fats, plant-based protein and even more fibre, making it a nutritionally-balanced and completely delicious meal that will warm you from the inside out.

Been a bit quiet on here recently (again), but making up for it with today's recipe. It's gluten-free, refined sugar-free and vegan-friendly, plus is higher in fibre and protein than your average banana bread making it a great option for a nutrient-dense snack or wholesome breakfast.

TAHINI + OLIVE OIL BANANA BREAD with MISO TAHINI CARAMEL + TOASTED NUTS & SEEDS

INGREDIENTS

🍞 Loaf

Wet ingredients:
2 bananas, mashed
1 egg (or flax/chia egg to make it vegan)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup good olive oil
1/3 cup tahini
1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Dry ingredients:
1/2 cup brown rice flour
3/4 cup almond or another nut flour or your choice (I used strp'd tigernut flour)
1/4 cup chickpea flour
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon (I used Wunder Workshop Ltd.)
1/2 teaspoon ginger
a pinch of nutmeg
a pinch of salt

🍯 Miso tahini caramel
2 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp pure maple or local honey
1 tsp miso paste
1 tbsp warm water

✨ Sprinkles
Your choice of nuts and seeds, dry toasted in a pan until golden and fragrant. I used brazil nuts, pumpkin seeds + HempNorth locally grown h**p seeds

🍌 Extra banana for topping

MAKE IT
1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees C and line or lightly grease a loaf pan
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, then pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix gently (but thoroughly) to combine
4. Fold any extra nuts, seeds or choc chips through the batter
5. Pour the batter into the loaf tin and top with banana slices
6. Bake for 35-45 minutes or a knife comes out clean and your loaf is golden on top
7. While the loaf is baking, toast nuts and seeds in a dry pan over a medium heat until golden and fragrant, set aside
8. Make the caramel by whisking the ingredients together in a small bowl
9. Remove the loaf from the oven, drizzle over the caramel and sprinkle with nuts + seeds
10. Allow the loaf to cool for 10-15 mins before slicing, this allows it to firm up a little and reduces the dreaded risk of your loaf crumbling

Slice as needed to keep the loaf as fresh as possible. Store on the side for 3-4 days, after that, slice and freeze for up to 3 months.

Happy baking 🤍

4-INGREDIENT GREEN CHICKPEA FLOUR CREPES ✨

I’m obsessed with chickpea flour at the moment, literally using it in everything from banana bread, cookies and pancakes to veggie burgers and savoury crepes like these ones. It’s high protein, naturally gluten-free and is a good source of prebiotic fibre which encourages the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut - so a great flour to use in your cooking to boost the nutritional content of your meals 💫

Adding greens to the batter is a way of sneaking in extra veg, something I'm always recommending to clients (and doing for myself).

For the crepes:

Ingredients
1 1/4 cup chickpea flour
1 1/2 cup water
1-2 big handfuls of spinach or parsley
A generous pinch of salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy
Heat a small amount of ghee or coconut oil in a pan over medium-high heat and pour 3 or 4 tablespoons of the batter into the pan at a time. Cook until bubbles appear, then carefully flip and cook the other side. Repeat until you have used up all the batter. You should get 4-6 crepes depending on how big you make them

Serve with hummus or avocado and your choice of protein - spicy black beans/crispy tofu and veg, flaked salmon and salad, or eggs, avo and greens for a dreamy protein-packed savoury breakfast.

Any leftover crepes can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, you’ll just need to reheat them in a pan when it’s time to eat them.

I wrote something for Abodus Student Living on the problem with plastic & what we can do to help for 👇

Plastic pollution is an urgent global crisis that impacts literally everything in our world. An eyesore at best, tiny pieces of plastic, also known as microplastics, have been found everywhere from the highest of mountain summits to the deepest of ocean trenches, with catastrophic effects on the natural world and human health. These microplastics have seeped into the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink and the earth beneath our feet, which means they make their way into not only our bodies, but the bodies of all the animals and plants we share the planet with, and the intricate web of ecosystems that exist all around us (upon which human life actually depends).

Every stage of plastic production; use, transportation and disposal, has huge implications for human, animal and environmental health, and is directly linked with many serious human health conditions including cancer, diabetes, reproductive and hormonal problems, respiratory diseases and many more.

Additionally, plastic pollution disproportionately affects Black, Brown and Indigenous (BIPOC), rural and low-income communities, making it a social justice issue that often slips under the radar. Despite the urgent and well-publicised need to dramatically reduce our reliance on fossil fuels (from which most plastics are derived) the plastic and petrochemical industries continue to grow rapidly. In short, we must act now.
