The "healthy" bar has 27 ingredients. The chocolate bunny has 7.

We're not saying eat the bunny instead. We're saying don't assume something is better for you just because it's marketed that way.

High protein. No added sugar. Natural flavours. These claims mean nothing without flipping it over and actually reading the label.

Both of these can absolutely have a place in your diet. But the one with the health halo isn't automatically the winner.

Read the label. Make your own call. 🐣

Most people know they should eat more protein at breakfast.

They just don't know what that actually looks like on a Tuesday morning.

6 options. All over 20g protein. All genuinely easy.

Save this for the next time you're staring at the pantry at 7am with zero ideas.

Viral Oven Baked Dumpling Curry

I’ve been seeing this dumpling bake everywhere lately and it always looks damn delicious, so obvs had to try it.

It’s a great concept for a quick dinner, but the original versions are usually a bit light on veg. I’ve tweaked the ratios here to pack in more greens, making it a more balanced, high-fiber meal. I’d also recommend adding some shredded chicken or something for a protein boost (this meal provides around 15g protein as is).

It’s a one-pan recipe with basically zero prep. If you’re short on time but still want a proper dinner, this is for you.

Serves 2

Ingredients
1 can coconut milk
2 tbsp red curry paste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp ginger, minced
1/4 cup salt reduced soy sauce
1.5 cups salt reduced chicken stock
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 lime, juiced
2 serves noodles of your choice (uncooked)
10 dumplings
3 cups mixed greens (broccoli, green beans, edamame, spinach)

Toppings: Fresh shallots, coriander, and sesame seeds

The Method
1. Preheat your oven to 200°C.
2. In a baking dish, whisk together the coconut milk, curry paste, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, stock, sesame oil, and lime juice
3. Add the noodles, broccoli, and beans to the sauce, then place the dumplings on top. Use a spoon to coat the dumplings in the mixture
4. Cover pan with foil and bake in oven for 30 minutes (removing foil for 10 minutes at the end). If you’re using spinach, stir it through right at the end so it wilts in the residual heat. Just as a side note - this recipe works without the foil too but I think turned out slightly better with foil.
5. Finish with plenty of fresh shallots, coriander, and sesame seeds.

The sauce is literally drinkable. 🤤

➡️ Sticky chicken & greens bowl🥬🥢

Serves 4

Ingredients:
✅1 tablespoon EVOO
✅ 1 brown onion, chopped
✅500g chicken mince
✅2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
✅2cm piece ginger, finely chopped
✅2 bunches broccolini, roughly chopped
✅2 cup green beans, trimmed and roughly chopped
✅3 spring onion, finely sliced

Sauce:
✅1 tablespoon cornflour
✅2 tablespoons water
✅1/3 cup soy sauce
✅1/4 cup chicken stock
✅2 tbsp cup honey
✅1 tbsp sesame oil
✅1 tbsp white sesame seeds

Cooked white or brown rice to serve

Method:
1. In a bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients. Set aside.

2. Hear oil in frying pan or wok. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes. Add the mince to the pan and use a wooden spoon to break it up into small pieces over 3-4 minutes. Then add the garlic and ginger, cook this while stirring for 1-2 minutes.

3. Add the broccolini and green beans and stir these through for 30 seconds. Turn the heat to high. Then add the sauce, stir through and then leave the mince without stirring for 2-3 minutes, so that it caramelizes. It should darken and look more saucy. Stir everything through for the last 30 seconds and turn off the heat.

4. To serve up: Place rice into bowls and spoon over some of the sticky mince. Top with some fresh spring onion.

Chocolate is a fav for many of us - but have you ever stopped to check the nutrition panel?

We compared 8 popular blocks and interestingly the nutritional differ a fair bit (even we were surprised!).

We’re not sharing this post to make you feel like you need to change your go to choccie or to feel like there’s a “good” or “bad” chocolate. If you’re a choccie fan, enjoy (a few squares) of your favourite chocolate mindfully.🙂

TERIYAKI SALMON BOWL 🥢

Save it for later 👇

Ingredients (serves 2)
2 salmon fillets, skin off (~200g)
1 small head broccoli, cut into florets
1 cup cooked brown rice
½ avocado, diced
½ cup frozen edamame, shelled
1 carrot, cut into matchsticks

Teriyaki sauce
2 tbsp salt-reduced soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cm piece ginger, finely grated
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp honey
2 tbsp water
1 tsp corn flour

Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a tray with baking paper.

To make the teriyaki sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine, then reduce heat and cook for 4–5 minutes or until thickened.

Place salmon fillets and broccoli on the tray and spoon over half the teriyaki sauce to coat evenly. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until salmon is cooked to your liking.

Divide rice between bowls and top with salmon, broccoli, avocado, edamame and carrot. Drizzle with remaining sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
