✨ Nourish Before You Garnish ✨
I always remind my community that a nutritive plate is far more important than a beautiful plate. A dish doesn’t need to be fancy or aesthetic to fuel your body with what it truly needs.
Last night’s dinner was the perfect reminder of that:
🍆 Baked eggplant with tomato sauce & mozzarella
🥦 Cauliflower gratin blended with grated pumpkin
🌶️ Grilled bell peppers
All fragrantly seasoned with oregano, thyme, garlic, ginger, a touch of olive oil and a little butter.
This simple, colourful combination offered:
✔️ Fiber for digestion
✔️ Antioxidants for cellular health
✔️ Healthy fats for hormone balance
✔️ A good balance of vitamins & minerals
✔️ A comforting, satisfying meal
Often, the most nourishing plates are not “Instagram perfect”—they’re wholesome, balanced, and made with intention.
So next time you cook, focus on building a plate that supports your wellbeing. Beauty fades… but nourishment stays with you. 💛
