Come cook a cosy mushroom risotto with me 🍄. Because carbs are for energy and are not the enemy.�
Simple, creamy and the kind of meal that actually leaves you feeling warm, grounded and properly nourished.

You’ll need:
* 1 punnet mushrooms (250–300g), sliced
* 1 onion, finely chopped
* 2 cloves garlic, crushed
* 1 tbsp olive oil + a small k**b of butter
* 200g risotto rice
* 1 litre hot veg or chicken stock
* Splash of white wine (optional)
* A good grating of parmesan
* A small splash of milk at the end for creaminess
* Salt + pepper
* Fresh parsley if you fancy it

How I make it:
1. Heat the oil and butter, then soften the onions gently.
2. Add the garlic and risotto rice, letting the rice toast for a minute.
3. Pour in the wine if you’re using it and let it bubble away.
4. Add the hot stock a ladle at a time, stirring so it turns creamy.
5. Once the rice is halfway cooked, add the mushrooms and keep going with the stock until everything is tender.
6. When the rice is ready, stir through a splash of milk and melt in the parmesan.
7. Season and top with extra cheese (always allowed).
Balanced, hearty and actually satisfying — because you deserve meals that keep you fuelled.

Please let’s not start choosing advent calendars according to their calories!

I’m here to remind you that enjoying a small chocolate everyday is totally fine to do. It’s such a small amount of your days intake - it won’t make any difference to your weight, your health or your body. It’s what you do long term that counts.

Food is about more than calories. In this case it’s about culture, celebration and the preparation for Christmas.

So enjoy that small advent chocolate each day. Savour it and let’s turn a blind eye to diet culture on this one.

Fat is one of the most misunderstood nutrients, but it’s essential for your health and recovery. Diet culture has told us to cut down, eat low fat and that fat is the enemy but it’s to change that record!

Your body uses fat for hormone production, brain function, vitamin absorption, and long-term energy. So they really are something to include and not exclude.

When you cut our fat, you’re not being “healthier”, you’re depriving your body of what it truly needs. There are nutrients we can only get enough of if we eat fats.

Remember eating enough fat helps your hormones function, your mood stabilise, and your body heal. It also makes food satisfying and enjoyable, which is a huge part of life!

If you want support with building your meal plan and knowing exactly what to eat comment “FOUNDATIONS” below. As an eating disorder dietitian I’m an expert in helping people with this.

Take home message: You don’t need to fear fat. You need to include it.

Apple Spiced Muffins

Every weekend for the past year I’ve been baking snack snacks for pack lunches in order to reduce the amount of UPF’s and the children’s diets.

Now I’m not against UPF’s, I totally think we need some of these foods in our diets in order to live life! But there are ways we can reduce our reliance on them. So baking snacks is one of my ways.

Here’s our Apple spiced muffins!

Ingredients:
300 g plain flour
Two tsp baking powder
Half tsp bicarb of soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
200 mils whole milk
60 g Greek yoghurt
60 mls vegetable oil
80 g brown sugar
2 eggs
2 large eating apples finally diced
50 g porridge oats

method:
– preheat the oven to 180°C.
– Mix the flower with a baking powder, bicarb and cinnamon.
– Measure the milk yoghurt oil, sugar and eggs in a bowl. Mix to combine.
– Mix the dry ingredients into the wet and mix. Adding the apples and oats to the mixture stirring to combine.
– Divide the mixture into muffin cases and bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
– Will keep in an air type container up to 3 days. Will also freeze well.

Enjoy! Xx

For years diet trends has called for low-fat everything… but in action fat normal fat dairy may be the better option for you!

I hate the labels we have - full fat so often isn’t high in fat at all! Based on nutrition guidelines, full fat milk is actually medium fat!

Full fat dairy is nutrient-rich, satisfying and keeps you energised. You don’t need to fear it. In fact, including a little fat in your meals helps you absorb vitamins, stay fuller for longer and enjoy your food more.

I usually advise my clients to switch to normal yoghurt or a 5% Greek yoghurt. It leads to more nutrition, more satisfaction and is better for your blood sugar control too.

For nutrition information you can trust comment “FOUNDATIONS” to get on the waitlist for my How to Eat course. I’ve a special one off sale this weekend that will be launched through the email list!

It’s Not Just You: Why It Feels Like Everyone Is Shrinking and it’s not OK.

It feels like we are sliding back into the 90s aesthetic, and that feeling that society demands we take up less space is overwhelming. Between super skinny celebs and weight loss jabs, the noise is deafening right now.

As an Eating Disorder Dietitian, I want you to know: This pressure is cultural, not personal. The constant push for “smaller” is a massive threat to your relationship with food and fuels the toxic voice of disordered eating.

We worked too hard to push back against the myth that our size determines our worth. So know that if the noise of the “shrinking” trend is making eating regularly and enough feel impossible, remember you don’t have to face it alone.

Your Worth is Not Negotiable. I want you to expand your life, find food freedom, and focusing on joy - not on shrinking your body. Don’t let a fleeting trend steal your peace.

The Recovery Tribe offers compassionate support and guidance to help you stand firm against these unhelpful societal messages.

Here’s why 1200 kcals is NOT enough for your body.

There’s been a flurry of certain PT’s and others suggesting 1200kcals is enough for female bodies - I totally disagree, it’s going to be the exception and not the norm.

As a dietitian I literally work out people’s nutritional requirements and 1200kcals is often around the amount a female body needs just to maintain their BMR. Thats the amount you need to do practically nothing all day.

Restricting down to this amount can damage your relationship with food and your body. So please don’t start that journey.

Bloating in recovery is uncomfortable and frankly unfair, but it’s a completely normal part of your gut relearning how to work again, it’s not a sign you’re doing anything wrong.

With regular meals, patience and the right support, it does settle.

Today, I am joining with experts, organisations, and families across the UK in signing an open letter calling for urgent action to prevent people with eating disorders from ending their lives under the Assisted Dying Bill.

People with eating disorders are already dying while waiting for treatment. Many are young, with decades of life ahead of them. Their families are left devastated and searching for answers that should never have been needed.

Clinicians and services are under enormous strain, and we still do not have reliable national data on how many people with eating disorders are dying. We are calling on government to record these deaths consistently and invest in the research and specialist services needed to prevent them.

Evidence from abroad shows what is at stake. At least sixty people with eating disorders have ended their lives under assisted dying laws in other countries. All were women, and a third were under thirty. With timely treatment and sustained support, many of these deaths might have been prevented.

The UK has an opportunity to learn from this. If assisted death becomes available in a system where access to treatment is already limited, people who are overwhelmed and unwell may request to end their lives at points when they urgently need help to live.

People with eating disorders deserve treatment that helps them stay alive and gives them a chance to recover.

Tell the House of Lords: people with eating disorders need support to live, not assistance to die - go to or bio to grab the email to take action.

Everyone loves to assume being a dietitian means I hand you a colour-coded, calorie-counted meal plan…
and then just leave you to it.

Absolutely not.

I’m not the “here’s your strict plan, good luck!” type and I never will be. Because recovery needs more than numbers on a page. It needs flexible meals, support for your nervous system, space to work through the tough thoughts, and someone in your corner when eating feels overwhelming.

You can work with me 1-1 to have plenty of time to pick my brain, to have me guiding you and checking in on you.
Details on my website.

Or via the Recovery Tribe, where we work in group coaching with a vibe I truly love. You don’t just learn what to eat, you learn how to actually feel safer, calmer and more confident around food.

With a few songs along the way. Maybe 😂
