Taco Tuesday, but better 🌮

Cantina tacos are made with real ingredients, no added nasties, and they’re now in Sainsbury’s and Ocado 🙌🏼.

One of my favourite ways to boost my family’s health… old school bone broth!

Recipe:

1 x chicken carcass (with meaty bits)
1 x large white onion
1 x large carrot
2 x garlic cloves
Water (to the top of the slow cooker)
Seasoning of choice - I use black pepper, dried chives, salt.

Method:
- chop the veg finely and add to the slow cooker
- Add chicken carcass to the slow cooker and fill to the top with water
- add seasoning to suit (I used salt, pepper, dried chives)
- lid on, set slow cooker to LOW temperature and leave for 12 hours
- after 12 hours, remove the carcass and any inedible pieces.

That’s it! It’s really that simple!

Potential benefits of bone broth (there are so many more too!)

✅good source of collagen - skin, joints, cell repair
✅gut health boost
✅source of electrolytes
✅rich in vitamins and minerals

🫶🏼Save your Sunday roast chicken bones!🫶🏼

Most sausages are packed with artificial additives, preservatives and things our bodies don’t need.
That’s why I always flip the pack and read the label.
 Finnebrogue Chipolatas have:
* No additives
* Gluten-free
* Chicory inulin (a prebiotic that feeds your good gut bacteria)
Compare that to other brands and it’s an easy choice!

Remember every little supermarket swap counts and this is a good one!

I’m all for ease when it comes to eating well (we all are, right?). Getting more fibre in isn’t about changing everything you eat, it’s just about the small add-ins that make a big impact.

The recommended daily fibre intake is 30g, yet 90% of us are not hitting this!

💛What could you be doing to increase your fibre intake?💛

I’m all for ease when it comes to eating well (we all are, right?). 💛
Getting more fibre in isn’t about changing everything you eat, it’s just about the small add-ins that make a big impact.

30g fibre per day is the recommendation, yet 90% of us are NOT hitting that amount!

What could you be adding to increase your fibre intake?
The real question is though, who has tried kiwi with skin on? I LOVE IT! 💛

💛Collagen, the wonder supplement.💛

Honestly, this is the supplement that I’ve actually noticed a huge difference in my skin and hair and one I can no longer be without.

We start losing collagen from our mid 20s, and by 40 you could already be down about 25%. No wonder things start to feel a bit… “less bouncy 😂”.

But here’s the thing: not all collagen supplements are created equal. Some are cheap, bulked out, or barely absorbed.

💛Why I stick with Fat Cow Collagen:

* Grass-fed bovine = quality you can trust
* Hydrolysed for bioavailability (your body can actually use it)
* No fillers, no nasties, just pure collagen |AD

💛Lunchboxes are never about chasing perfection (that doesn’t exist, right?).

For me it’s about how well I can nourish my kids in the middle of a busy day.

Every lunch I pack has different food, same foundations:

🌱 Variety of plant foods
🥪 Limited ultra processed things
🌾 Fibre, fibre, fibre
🍗 Protein

Lunch is such a great chance to slip in different nutrients that support both their immediate and ling term health.

Some days it looks colourful and creative, other days it is pretty simple, and that is ok. The goal is never a picture perfect box. It is balance, fuel, and a little peace of mind for me as a mum.

💛If you’d like a list of “best brands” that are minimally processed, great for lunchboxes (and everyday meals) for just £4.99! Comment ⭐️BEST ⭐️ and I’ll pop the link in your DMs.

Big love always,

💛No brainer porridge swap💛

Single ingredient foods always win!

Oh and even going organic on the porridge oats, milk and maple syrup is cheaper per portion!

Quakers Golden Syrup Porridge Pot portion = £1.30

Organic single ingredient porridge per portion = £0.46

Better price and better nutrition 🙌🏼🫶🏼.

The amount of people I hear say…

❌ “I haven’t got time to be healthier”
❌ “I want to learn more but I’m just too busy” is unreal.

Here’s a bit of tough love👊🏼💛…
all those things you’re so busy with aren’t even possible without your health.

💡 Your health is always a profit whether you like it or not and improving it isn’t as hard as you think. It just takes a few simple changes implemented consistently.

Small shifts = huge health benefits.

🙌🏼If you’re ready to finally make those changes, we’ve got a few spaces left on The Basic Course this month, designed to give you the health boost you need without drowning you in overwhelming info.

Comment PROBLEM👇 and I’ll send you the link.

Big love always,

Sofi x
