GOOD TIMES | Three years ago today I posted a little headshot announcing I was starting a nutrition consulting business called Good Plate 💫

With a bunch of new followers and faces here (👋🏼), it felt like time to re-introduce myself & what GP stands for. Good Plate is still all about helping clients reach their health goals and supporting my community to find joy in delicious, nutritious food & meaningful movement - but the way I deliver that mission has broadened and more than ever is centred around collaboration 🙌🏽

I’ve been a busy gal building GP into what it is today… and I’m also studying Naturopathy so I can offer a wider scope of practice, a Naturopathic toolkit & a deeper understanding of how the body can heal itself with the right guidance & support 🫐🚶🏼‍♀️≥💊

My favourite GP moments have always been collaborations - running workshops & co-hosting retreats, helping hospitality businesses improve their menus. I love working with people, sharing my love of food, nutrition, movement & balanced lifestyles that aren’t about perfection but about progress and fun 🪇

So here’s a little update told through some recent photos (with a couple of personal ones… including my 40th this year - you’ll spot it 😂).

I’ve also updated my website & services (see ). New offerings include my Good Work Workplace Wellness program (taking bookings for 2026), menu consultation for hospitality businesses, customised meal & exercise support programs & more. AND I finally have a blog with some of my fave Good Plates - I hope you love the recipes as much as I love sharing them, I promise to keep adding more each week ✨

It’s been an incredible 3 years. Not always sunshine & rainbows - but as they say, if it feels easy, you’re probably not doing it right. Thank you to my clients who’ve entrusted me in supporting them, and thank you also everyone who has supported me unconditionally…you know who you are 🥹🫶🏽

If you’d like to collaborate in any capacity, reach out. Food gets me out of bed every day — but it’s the people I get to share it with that truly excite me 👯‍♀️

Oh - and happy birthday to Good Plate 🧁🥰

Buon appetito 🍋

GOOD VIBES | Last week I was very lucky to hang out with and watch her work her magic with her mummas in the kitchen cooking the most incredible, authentic Lebanese food 🇱🇧

I came away feeling so inspired and was reminded of how much I adore Middle Eastern flavours 🙌🏽

I’m always wanting to widen the variety of foods my family eat - although they’re already pretty good, a bit more exposure to a bigger range of flavours and spices like cumin, turmeric, allspice & coriander is always a good idea 🫚

So I got creative and decided to change up the regular taco Night and make it Lebanese style. It’s a pretty straight forward concept & I am sure there is a proper Lebanese name for this - help me out here !? I don’t trust ChatGPT enough for this job 😂

Feel free to mix it up as much as you want but here are the major components:

‘Kofta’ mix using a combo of beef & lamb mince, raw onion, crushed garlic & KITCHEN HACK ALERT toss in a packet of Butter Chicken mix which has a very Middle Eastern flavour profile. Feel free to add allspice and sumac if you have them in the pantry too. Cook it off until brown & crumbly 🤎
Pickles like turnip & cucumber, onion, chilli 🌶️
Chopped lettuce, cheese like freshly grated halloumi & feta, chopped tomatoes, radish, spring onion, cucumber, loads of fresh herbs like parsley & mint (or just do a tabouleh to have on and for t), pine nuts, tahini-yoghurt sauce all piled into lightly toasted Lebanese breads! If you want to go vego just go use felafel instead of the mince. Bangin’ flavours 💥

It’s another ‘choose your own adventure’ vibe that the family loves - and I am here for it 🤲🏼 
Comment recipe and i’ll pop it through to your DMs 💌

Buon appetito 🍋

GOOD TREATS | What a week its been - feeling super inspired after spending time with & but now its back to reality & need to make some healthy snacks to have on hand for hungry little (and not so little) hands 🤲🏻

I found this one on Fatimah’s instagram page & it’s a winner. Super nutrient dense but also very much a treat. It’s your very own homemade Lebanese Loco Love - and I love love love it 🤎🤎🤎

Did you know pistachios are JAMMED with fibre, protein, good fats Vitamin B6, potassium, magnesium - need I go on? They are just the prettiest little nut (just like you!) and all of these nutrients are the best combination for hormonal health, brain cognition, hunger regulation and of course, gut health 💩

The dark chocolate is also a flavonoid factory (I’ve used 💯 pure dark chocolate leaves here from ) so thats a win for both flavour and functionality. If you want something slightly less intense - use chocolate chips with a slightly lower cacoa % as these almost knocked my socks off 🧦🤯

I’ve popped Fatimah’s beautiful recipe up on my blog and if you want the link sent direct to your DMs, pop a 🤎 into the comments.

Buon appetito 🍋

PS . How good is this audio 😍

GOOD PLANS | When we’re even a little bit planned and organised, everything feels easier. It sets us up to make consistently good choices around food without relying on “willpower” or feeling like we have to be perfect 🙄 (and who wants to be perfect all the time anyway?!)

Just as importantly, planning gives us the freedom to really enjoy those ‘sometimes’ foods without the guilt — because we know the bigger picture is balanced & nourishing ⚖️

Planning doesn’t need to be a full meal plan that you stick to religiously and without compromise. It can be a quick scribble in your diary, a note in your phone, a post-it note stuck to the fridge 📝

Whatever it looks like for you - this little bit of forethought brings more variety, more enjoyment, and takes away the mental load of having to decide what to cook when you’re tired, busy or stressed. And honestly, reducing that load is just as important for your wellbeing as the food itself ✨

If you’re not sure where to start, I’m here — whether you need a structured meal plan or gentle accountability coaching. I’ll meet you exactly where you’re at and help you build habits that feel good, delicious and sustainable 💫

If this sounds like the support you need right now, send me a message and let’s chat. 🤎

GOOD RUB | One of the simplest ways to transform a humble home-cooked dinner is with a freshly made marinade. Nothing fancy, just real ingredients and a quick whizz in the blender 🌀

I’m NOT a fan of pre-marinated meats, so consider this a gentle nudge to skip the stabilisers, fillers and refined oils. Make your own. This took literally three minutes. Truly worth it 🙌🏽

HOT TIP: Unless you’re using this on chicken, don’t add lemon juice (even if you’re tempted like I was)
It’ll start to cure or “cook” the lamb before it hits the grill and it definitely doesn’t have the best outcomes for beautifully pink cutlets 💕

Here’s my go-to lamb marinade (also delicious on chicken & pork). Adjust to taste, go wild, do your thang:

1kg lamb chops or cutlets
2 tbsp EVOO
3–4 sprigs fresh rosemary (leaves only)
3–4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp each smoked paprika + dried mint or oregano (or all 👀)
Rind of 1 lemon, finely grated
4–5 jarred anchovies
Salt & pepper

Blend until smooth, coat your meat and let it sit for 10 minutes to 10 hours (or overnight). Bring to room temp before grilling on high. Cook to your liking and enjoy immediately 🤤

🧄 Garlic count check: How many cloves is too many for you? (Asking for… well…me 😂)

Buon app 🍋

Also shout out to as I know she loves ‘meat on a handle’ and it’s very nostalgic for her 🍖🤎😉

GOOD MUESLI | Warmer mornings call for a little breakfast switch-up, and I’m a huge fan of ‘home brand’ muesli — aka the mix you make yourself from whatever wholegrains, nuts + seeds you love 🤎

I grab most of my bits from bulk wholefood stores like @ - because they’re always fresh and great quality ✔️

The mix itself? Never an exact science. I change it up depending on what I feel like and love getting more variety this way 🌈

This is the Good Muesli I threw together this morning. It’s wheat-free & super yum. Nutritionally, I often prefer a raw muesli over granola. Granola is delish (we all know this), but it’s usually cooked in some sort of syrup — even if it’s maple or honey, it’s still more of a morning sugar spike than I like 📈

I keep my portion small(ish): about 1/4 cup of muesli over 3/4 cup natural Greek yoghurt (currently obsessed with ) plus seasonal fruit — today was mango & blackberries 🥭

I don’t have muesli every day as I lean more into savoury breakies, but it’s so good to have a nutritious breaky option ready to go when the mornings are rushed
🏃🏼‍♀️💨

Save this for your next bulk food shop 🛒

GOOD MUFFINS | So this happened, and on a Monday morning…🤪

I managed to get Sonny excited to grate 2 carrots and a zucchini and then throw it all in a blender with some cacao powder, a brown banana, a couple of eggs and a few other bits e voila - some deliciously moist vegetable muffins that are dressed up as chocolatey sweet treats. SAY WHAT?! 🥕🥒🍫🧁

At the risk of sounding a bit crazy - they only took total 25 mins to make so they are definitely achievable for a morning before school bake session (is that even a thing?) 😂🔫

And in even more good news - they’re gluten free, dairy free, more or less refined sugar free but ABSOLUTELY NOT flavour free - so you can feel guilt free having one and packing them into your kiddos lunchboxes 🙌🏽

The sweetness comes from about 1/4 cup of honey because the choccy chips I use are dark & high cacao % which I love. It’s almost too good to be true 🍯

Want the recipe for my Choc-full-of-Veg-Muffins??!! Comment “muffin” below and I’ll flick it to your DMs 🧁🧁🧁

GOOD CRUNCH | Before you roll your eyes and scroll past yet another nutritionist plugging yet another kale salad — this one’s worth stopping for ✋

It’s got bold, smoky flavours, fibre for days, and all the good fats working together — plus the crispy crunchy chaos of tortilla chips. Just buy the best you can afford, made with real corn and no additives or fillers — I love 🌽

Where’s the protein, you ask? The clever combo of black beans and h**p seeds creates a complete amino acid profile in one vegetarian dish that’s as fun as it is functional — plus manchego, which packs a serious protein punch 🧀

It’s perfect for busy weeks too — just keep the dressing and avocado separate until you’re ready to eat 🥑

Taco ’bout a winner of a salad 🙌🏽
 Drop a 🌮 below and I’ll flick the recipe straight to your DMs 📫
