Want to make the quickest, easiest dinner EVER with stuff you can just keep in your freezer? Say hello to Gluten Free Potato Gnocchi!! 🥔

I keep the potato gnocchi in my freezer! Cook it as per directions! Pour it out into a colander and drain. In the same pot, add a jar of whatever pasta sauce you like and heat it up. Add the gnocchi back in and stir through, pour into a baking dish and add cheese! 🧀

I LOVE organic shredded cheeses (already shredded and no nasty stuff! 🙌🏻). I buy about 5 packets at a time and use it on everything from pizza to parmigiana. 😁

Anyway… put the dish under a hot grill until the cheese melts and serve! Dinner done! 🙌🏻 I always add salad of course! 😁

What are your criminally easy dinners? Give me some to try in the comments!

Going gluten free can be a bit of a shock to the lifestyle and you can feel like you’re restricted or deprived. The key is to try and replicate as many of your favourite foods so you don’t feel like you’re missing out.

Kebabs have always been one of my favourite things so, after a fair bit of searching, I found these gluten free Lebanese breads from that fit the bill. Just heat them in a pan before adding your preferred toppings!!

Mine consists of bone broth mayo (best mayo EVER!!! 🤤) plus sriracha, tomato sauce, raw garlic, lettuce, cucumber, sundried tomatoes and scotch fillet steak! 🤤

I’m also on a calorie restricted diet for a little while so for those wanting to know, this has 707 calories (because I ate the whole steak! 🤭 I normally only have half, which brings it down to 548 cal but I was hungry! 😆) and contains 54g carbs, 57g protein and 26g of fat and was beyond delicious!!! 🤤

Never think that being gluten free is a taste bud death sentence! There are always options! 😊

Is this helpful? I have other recipes I can share if you’d like them, just let me know in the comments! 😊

💩 Bile. What is it? Why should you care?

Everyone’s out here “detoxing” with teas, juices, and parasite cleanses while their bile is literally begging for help.
 Like “hi, I’m your built-in detox system, remember me?” 👋

Bile is your body’s natural waste truck hauling out used hormones, toxins, and fats through the back door (literally 💩). When it’s sluggish? You feel puffy, foggy, moody, constipated, maybe even a little ragey-for-no-reason.

It’s also the antimicrobial wash for the intestines preventing things like SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth).

So if you’re just doing a cleanse every now and then, you’re ignoring one of the most important daily processes of your body!

🫚 Enter the bitters. Dandelion, witloff, grapefruit, rocket, radicchio, ginger, artichokes, apple cider vinegar etc… those sharp, earthy, make-your-face-cringe foods? They wake up the liver and gallbladder, telling them it’s time to flow, and should be added to your daily food intake!

So next time you’re craving something sweet, try going bitter. Your skin, hormones, and digestion will thank you.
 Because you don’t need another cleanse, you need better daily bile flow.

Missed parmigiana since going gluten free? I’ve got you!! This is the way I’ve always made parmigiana! The crunch beats breadcrumbs any day! 🙌🏻

🍴Gluten-Friendly Parmigiana

Ingredients
* 2–4 pieces of meat or eggplant slices
* 1 cup gluten free corn flakes (organic if possible)
* ½ cup rice flour
* 2 eggs
* 2 tbsp almond milk (or milk of choice)
* Olive oil, for frying
* Tomato paste
* Cheese, shredded or sliced

Method
1. Blend the corn flakes in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs.
* Spread the crumbs on one plate.
* Put the rice flour on another plate.
* In a bowl, whisk the eggs and almond milk together
2. Coat each piece of meat or eggplant first in rice flour, then egg mixture, then corn flake crumbs, pressing gently so they stick well.
3. Fry each crumbed piece until cooked through and golden on both sides
4. Spread tomato paste over the top of each piece.
* Add cheese on top
5. Place under a grill until the cheese melts and bubbles
6. Serve Hot

Seriously the best parmigiana EVER! And coeliac friendly! 🫶🏻

😴 What I learnt today (or really, what I’ve been going on about for years)!

Every time I hear another speaker confirm it, I want to stand up and cheer because once again, sleep proves to be one of the most underrated weight-loss tools on the planet.

You can nail your nutrition and train five days a week… but if your sleep is trash, your metabolism is in full-blown survival mode.

⬆️ Cortisol climbs (hello, belly fat)

⬇️ Insulin sensitivity tanks (you store, not burn)

⬇️ Leptin drops (never feel full)

⬆️ Ghrelin spikes (night-time cravings kick in)

You don’t need more willpower, you need more Zzzzzzz. 🥱

Even one week of poor sleep is enough to throw your hunger and fat-burning hormones completely out of rhythm. 🙈

So if you’re stuck in that “I’m doing everything right but not losing weight” phase… start here:

🌙 Fix your circadian rhythm

💫 Support your sleep chemistry with magnesium, glycine, theanine or passionflower

🌼 Deepen your sleep with saffron, zizyphus or tryptophan

🧘🏻‍♀️ Bring in regular, consistent stress management practices

Because sleep isn’t self-care anymore, it’s a fat-loss strategy!

Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common nutrient deficiency in the world and while iron tablets can help restore iron levels, they often come with an unpleasant side effect… they damage the gut and cause oxidative stress. 😬

Researchers from the University of Granada decided to explore a gentler option: fermented goat’s milk (think goat yogurt). It’s low in allergens, highly digestible, and naturally rich in prebiotics & probiotics. All the things your gut microbiome loves.

In their study (animal model), fermented goat’s milk:
 🐐 Restored gut bacteria diversity & activity (in both small & large intestines)
 🐐 Repaired the gut barrier, preventing harmful bacteria from leaking into the bloodstream
 🐐 Supported faster recovery from iron deficiency anaemia
 🐐 Reduced the severity of dysbiosis (gut imbalance) caused by anaemia

Why is this exciting? Iron supplements often trigger dysbiosis and damage enterocytes (the cells that absorb nutrients). Fermented goat’s milk, on the other hand, may protect intestinal health while supporting iron recovery, making it a potential new nutritional tool in managing anaemia.

While the research is in animals, the findings are promising enough that scientists are calling for human trials.
 For now, it’s a reminder that food can be powerful medicine, and that protecting your gut is just as important as replenishing your iron.

Would you try fermented goat’s milk if it could help your iron and your gut? I know I will! 🐐😊
