We’re on the lookout for a warm, organised, and proactive Admin Support person to join the Ward Nutrition team in a key front-of-house and admin role (20–24 hours per week).

You’ll be a big part of creating a welcoming experience for our clients and supporting our dietitians behind the scenes to keep the clinic running smoothly.

While experience with Medicare and NDIS is a bonus, the two things we value most are a great attitude and a willingness to learn. If you’re someone who enjoys helping others, takes initiative, and likes being part of a supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.

This role will suit someone seeking flexible part-time work in a friendly healthcare environment.

Meal Prep Monday - Dinner Edition!

This sushi bowl is a great midweek dinner or make-ahead option — all the flavors of sushi in a simple bowl that’s easy to prep and perfect for busy nights.

Sushi bowls (4 serves):
• 2 cups cooked sushi rice
• 500–600 g chicken breast, cooked in teriyaki sauce
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 2 cups cucumber, thinly sliced
• 2 cups carrot, pickled or lightly quick-pickled
• 4 sheets nori, finely sliced or torn
• Small drizzle sriracha mayo
• Optional: sesame seeds, spring onion

How to cook & prep:
Cook the rice and allow to cool slightly. Pan-fry or bake the chicken in teriyaki sauce until cooked through, then slice. Prepare the cucumber and pickled carrot while everything cooks.

This meal works two ways:
🥗Option 1 - Cook once, eat fresh:
Serve warm rice and chicken straight away, then top with avocado, pickled vegetables, nori and a drizzle of sriracha mayo for an easy dinner.
🥗Option 2 - Meal prep for the week:
Portion rice, chicken and vegetables into four containers and store in the fridge. Add avocado, nori and sriracha mayo just before eating to keep everything fresh. The chicken and rice reheat well, making this an easy grab-and-go dinner.

We love this dinner because of its great balance of carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats, with plenty of colour and texture. It’s simple, satisfying, and easy to customise based on what you have at home.

Bake at 175 degrees for about 40 minutes (less if you like it a bit gooey)

Flavour combo examples:
Carrot walnut: add 2 small shredded carrots with ~1/2 cup chopped walnuts, cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg
Lamington: add 1/2 cup cocoa powder and 1/2 cup shredded coconut

Meal Prep Monday - Dinner Edition!

This chicken burrito bowl is a perfect option whether you’re cooking once for the family or setting yourself up with dinners for the week - fresh, flexible, and easy to prep ahead.

Chicken burrito bowls (4 serves):
• 6–8 cups shredded lettuce
• 500–600 g marinated chicken breast
• 2 cups charred corn
• 2 cups cucumber, diced
• 2 cups capsicum, sliced
• 2 cups grated carrot
• ½ cup pickled onions
• ½ cup salsa
• ½ cup grated cheese
• 1–2 cups corn chips (to serve, for crunch)

How to cook & prep:
Pan-fry, grill or bake the marinated chicken until cooked through, then rest and slice. While the chicken cooks, char the corn and prepare your vegetables.

This meal works two ways:
🥗Option 1 - Cook once, eat fresh:
Serve the warm chicken straight away with the prepped vegetables, salsa, cheese and corn chips for an easy family dinner.

🥗Option 2 - Meal prep for the week:
Portion the chicken and vegetables into four containers and store in the fridge. Reheat the chicken when ready to eat and add fresh lettuce, salsa, cheese and corn chips just before serving to keep everything crisp.

We love this as a mid-week option as it’s high in protein, packed with colourful vegetables, and easy to customise. Prepping the ingredients ahead saves time on busy nights and makes balanced dinners much easier to stick to!

How to build a balanced meal prepped salad:
1. choose a protein (Nadia chose schnitzel and tofu bits)
2. choose a leafy green (Nadia did lettuce)
3. Choose a carb (carbs in the schnitzel and beans)
4. Choose a sauce (Nadia did hummus lemon and caper sauce)
5. Add in veggies of choice (Nadia did chopped cherry tomato and beans)
