There is so much advice out there on how to eat healthier, it can feel really overwhelming. Over the years, I have trialled a lot of healthy eating styles. Most recently, I have begun The Glucose Goddess Method as I have often felt a slave to sweet cravings. I am still continuing with intermittent fasting and eating a wide variety of plant-based, wholefoods, however, for week 1, I have swapped a sweet breakfast for a savoury one. No more oats to start the day (sob 😢), scrambled eggs here I come....! I'll keep you posted.

I love plantyou recipes. They are not only healthy and delicious, but reduce cooking waste. Last night, I made Mac n Cheese for my family. The 'cheesy' sauce was packed with cauliflower, garlic, leeks, onion, peppers, sweet potato, carrot and herbs and the kids were none the wiser! The leftover sauce has been frozen in ice cube trays and will be used to make speedy meals in the future. Win!

A week ago, I returned from a weekend away to find our freezer had defrosted. So annoying!! However, I threw all the defrosted fruit in a pan with some water and simmered them until very soft. Then, I gave it a quick blitz in the food processor and mixed in some chia seeds. When it had cooled, I poured it into ice cube trays and ice cream moulds. There's dessert, fruit coulis, smoothies, and jam right there 😋

Are your children fussy eaters? I feel your pain! Last weekend, I made this veg packed bolognaise. I boiled cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, green beans, sweet potato, and leeks. Then, I steamed bok choy and kale and pan-fried garlic, onion, peppers, cherry tomatoes, large vine tomatoes, and celery. I blitzed these up until smooth and finally added them to organic lamb mince, borlotti beans and passata - kids were none the wiser! I even had loads of the veg mix left, which I froze into ice cubes and will add to their smoothies. Sneaky 😏

Eating organic can be a hit on your bank balance. The Clean 15 are plants that are least likely to be contaminated by pesticides so in order to reduce your food bill, buy the standard versions of these.

I have to say, I used to think eating organic was a fad for fussy people! But since becoming so much more aware of farming practices and food production, my family and I try to eat organic wherever we can.

Try to aim for at least 30 different plant based foods a week 💪🏻

The effect is about a third that of a taking daily cholesterol-lowering statin, research suggests.
