- Cashew Cream Cheesecake
Would you like to make this Christmas really special, different and healthy? How about some new wonderful ideas for your Christmas table that not only looks and tastes good, but is very nutritious and healthy. Okay, I’ve decided to do a Raw Food Workshop – just for Christmas. The format for the day will be, light, simple and appetising.
Christmas is very complex, very corrupt in many ways. The traditional food is so heavy and so unhealthy. We have become set in our ways, and pulled towards heavy, lifeless, empty calories, which give nothing back and cause enormous stress in our digestive systems long after the big weekend or event has passed.
How would you like to feel fantastic after eating Christmas Lunch? How would you like to have enough energy to enjoy your time with family and friends, and not have that feeling of ‘Oh God, I wish I didn’t eat that much!’? It’s possible you could be enjoying a very different style of food and really enjoy it. It’s possible that this Christmas you could actually look your best, feel fantastic and not put on weight!

Gluten Free Alternatives to bread!
Well they said it wouldn’t happen, but it has! Waffle bread is on a come back.. People everywhere are asking for decent ‘waffle bread’ recipes… I’m really excited about this, because I have some! Yep, I’ve got a few crackers that can be whipped up in no time, provided you have some basic ingredients available. For starters, some cooked brown or white rice, so gluten free Self Raising flour or plain flour, some herbs and spices, some chopped vegetables, or grated vegetables. Seasoning like herbal salts, curry powder, Cayenne pepper, chia seeds, sesame seeds and ground almond. Oh the list goes on, however at the end of the day the best combination is the simplest one. Less is more!
Waffle bread is so simple, and so practical to include in your weekly menu. I wrote ‘What A Lot Of Waffle’ because I wanted to find a home for a compilation of Gluten free waffle bread recipes that I had collected. I told myself that I would have the book together in no time, but it took longer than I expected. Life gets in the way sometimes. Hey the book is available now, and what a wonderful gift it would make for someone for Christmas or any time for that matter. Read the rest of this entry

Before I get onto these amazing seeds (which is what this blog is about), I’d like to first talk about plastics, because plastics are the biggest culprit of all containing a lot of hidden estrogens. And unfortunately plastic is everywhere and we use so much of it everyday. It may surprise you that all plastic contains estrogens. And the more flexible the plastic the more estrogen it contains.
The best advice I can give you is to store your food in glass containers, use a glass drinking bottle, and never ever heat your food in a plastic container. The humble flexible plastic bag contains a lot of estrogens, so be careful about storing nuts and seeds in plastic bags. And if you think the estrogens cannot get into your food or liquid, think again because they can. Read the rest of this entry

So it’s time for lunch, and what are you going to have today?
Most peopole usually make decisions on what to make, by what’s left in the refridgerator. Is that good enough? Yes and No! Lunch is often rushed or over looked when really ‘Lunch time’ gives us an opportunity to have the most beneficial meal of the day. Especially if we make the time to sit down and digest a delicious meal. All it takes is a little organisation… Read the rest of this entry

Recently I met some people at the Noosa Harbour Market. They were interested to know what ‘Healthy Home Stay’ was all about. I thought the best way to answer them was to write a typical scenario and share the information with everyone here.

Fruit and Passion
Eating live food doesn’t mean that you will sacrifice all those great foods that you have become accustomed to. A taste for fresh and delicious fruits, vegetables, cereals and nuts is readily acquired, and a cleaner taste soon discovers a delicacy and sweetness in the raw foods that the highly salted, flavoured and cooked foods never had.
