Not very instagram-pretty...but so delicious I’m posting it in case I want to make it again 😊 . 🍏 Bramley apples, goji berries and raisins, stewed in a syrup made with cinnamon sticks, dried ginger, cardamom seeds, juniper berries and coconut sugar. . . Served for breakfast with riazhenka (baked milk kefir) and the most addictive chocolate, buckwheat, ginger and almond granola. It’s based on a @mynewroots recipe. Which I now make in triple quantities 😊❤️😊 . #breakfast #breakfastvibes #healthybreakfast #breakfastfix #granola #stewedapples #granola

A deliciously indulgent smoothie for breakfast this morning. Since the weather became colder, smoothies have been off the menu, but I really craved one today. This one is higher in fructose than I normally like to make them...and as a result is seriously yummy 😆 . . 🍌1/2 banana 🌱Big handful of kale 🍐Pear 🥥Frozen coconut flesh ✨Baobab powder ✨Marine collagen ✨Cardamon pods ✨Crystallised ginger ✨Oat milk ✨Topped with bee pollen and raspberries #smoothie #breakfast #superfood #beepollen #baobab #vitamix #kale #coconut #mylk #collagen
❄️ Comfort food is firmly back on the menu each week, now that the cold weather is setting in ❄️ . . This is my take on fish pie. Smoked haddock and salmon mixed with as much veg as I can squeeze in . . 🥦 Leeks, courgette, cavolo nero, kale, fennel, peas, and dulse flakes, topped with sweet potato and potato mash. With a lovely cheesy topping. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything eaten quite as quickly 😊 . Here’s a rough recipe in case anybody wants to give it a go. . . . 🥧 Add fish to around 750ml of whole milk, and allow to come to the boil, then remove from heat and allow to cool 🥧 In the meantime put on the potatoes and sweet potatoes to boil (when cooked, drain and mix with butter and a little milk, season and mash) 🥧 Fry the veg gently in some ghee with the dulse flakes until soft 🥧 Strain the fish from the milk, keeping the milk ready to make the sauce 🥧 Add 2 tbsp corn flour to the milk and heat until thickened. Add grated cheese and lemon zest and juice to taste 🥧 Add the fish to a large serving dish, then top with the vegetables and gently mix together. Add the sauce and gently combine, then top with the mash and grated cheese 🥧 Heat in oven for 20 mins or so until brown 🥧 Eat. Quickly. Or it will have gone before you get a chance 😊 . #fishpie #pie #smokedhaddock #salmon #fish #supper #vegetables #mashedpotato #comfortfood
A couple of days ago I wrote a long and thoughtful note about how much love I feel for London at the moment, after years of wondering whether we should move to the country for clean air and a horizon. . . ✨There is such a tangible move here towards all the things I feel passionate about - gut health, inner peace and life balance. When restaurants like the wonderfully named @highmoodfood put krauts, kefir, kombucha, living bread and living sauces centre stage, my heart sings, as I really believe that small changes can help to make a big difference to health and happiness. . Sadly instagram wouldn’t post it, instead saying it would ‘try again when there was a better connection’…and then deleted it 🤬 Not deterred (inner peace and all that) I wrote it again a day later…same thing 🤬🤯😳 So - third time lucky. Not because I am passionately attached to this post but because I really don’t like losing. I am nothing if not determined…! . #happy #joy #lifebalance #innerpeace
🤷♀️ Is it COMPLETELY wrong of me to want to eat salt and pepper chocolate chip cookies for breakfast?! I mean...they ARE made from oat flour (made from whizzled up oats) so that’s practically porridge, right? Plus they have dark chocolate in - antioxidants anyone? And brown rice syrup instead of any refined sugars, which @iquitsugar argue is marvellous as it has 50% less fructose than sugar. . . I guess you COULD argue that they are nutritionally better than a lot of shop bought cereals…and just what I want to eat on an I’m-Bone-Tired day...😊💫 . Saying that, I can justify pretty much anything, especially if it involves expensive shoes. Or more crystals for my collection…😆 . @mynewroots I salute this recipe 😍 Sprinkled with smoked salt, with the slight spice of black pepper alongside dark chocolate. SO good. And perfect for breakfast in my opinion 👍😁 . #chocolateforbreakfast
Comfort food for supper ❤️ . Kedgeree inspired rice with smoked haddock, eggs, onion, garlic, spinach, peas, green beans and tomato, cooked in my homemade bone broth with some added kombu seaweed for extra umami 😊 Mustard seeds and a little mild curry powder for flavour. . Is it just me, or are one-pot meals the BUSINESS?! . #supper #kedgeree #eggs
☀️ I felt like a sunny lunch today, so made this open sandwich on my homemade Life Changing Loaf of Bread from @mynewroots topped with ghee, avocado, haloumi and the most delicious squash kimchi from @fermentedbylab . Creating a healthier gut one meal at a time 😊💫 . I really love fermenting food, but I usually end up with vats of the same flavour and seem to eat the same thing for months (or years, in the case of my last over-enthusiastic kimchi making 😂). I really love @fermentedbylab boxes as I get different krauts and kimchi’s and pickles, all with different probiotics, AND I don’t have to chop anything myself 👍 I really recommend buying a box if you’d like to give fermented food and drink a try ☀️ . #lifechangingloaf #glutenfree
🍂 We had a beautiful walk this morning in the Autumnal sun. I made this gut-friendly tomato and basil soup for lunch when we got home. I used my long-cooked bone broth and added miso and fermented smokey carrot and tomato relish from @fermentedbylab for added goodness. Topped with riazhenza (baked milk kefir). Recipe below 😊 . 🍅 Tbsp ghee 🍅 1 leek finely cut 🍅 1.5 jars of passata . 🍅 800ml bone broth or stock 🍅 Handful Basil . 🍅 Tbsp white miso 🍅 Heaped tbsp sauerkraut . 🍅 Yoghurt, kefir or riazhenka for drizzling on top . . Fry leek gently in ghee, and when soft add the passata, stock, basil and miso. Cook for around 15 mins then remove from heat, add sauerkraut and blend well until smooth. Serve drizzled with yoghurt, kefir or riazhenka ❤️🍅❤️ . #recipe #instafood #organic #healthyfood #healthy #realfood #guthealth
Winter ready ❄️🧣🤒 . . Elderberry syrup with cardamom, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, and fresh ginger. I hope this will work to keep the germs at bay 🤞 . #herbalmedicine #hedgerowmedicine #winterready
While I’ve popped out of my hermit cave, I thought I’d post a picture of my favourite meal of the moment ❤️ . 🌿Short grain brown rice with olive oil and soya sauce; feta, tomato and lambs lettuce salad with lots of fresh herbs; boiled eggs; and olives and gerkins. With some homemade kimchi on the side. . . I’m a bit obsessed with short grain brown rice at the moment. I regularly cook it in my instant pot pressure cooker. And it’s even better slathered in olive oil and soya sauce. . . Y. U. M. We eat it at least once a week 😊❤️🌿 . #shortgrainbrownrice #rice
I haven’t posted for a while as I’ve been channelling my inner hermit 😊 But I thought I had to share this picture of my crystals having a salt water cleanse. Aren’t they beautiful? If you look carefully you can see the rainbow hidden in the piece of citrine 🌈 💕 . And swipe to see the gorgeous colours radiating off the water. Like a luminescent orb of sunshine☀️ . . I spent a happy hour yesterday with a friend, helping her choose her first crystals from @buddhaonabicycle I couldn’t resist and bought the raw peridot you can see in the centre. . . Although I absolutely adore crystals, I like to keep my cynical side alive, so always question how I’m feeling and why. This time there was no question - I picked the peridot up and felt like I was going to fall over. I had the most extraordinary rush of energy into my head. My mother-in-law has always told me of a time that she picked up a crystal and immediately collapsed, but if I’m honest, I thought that maybe she was over exaggerating! Now I know it’s a ‘thing’. I wasn’t sure if it meant I should or shouldn’t work with it, but I decided to go with it and bring it home with me! If anyone knows the answer, do please comment 😊 . @crystalmuse_ ??? 🤷♀️ . #crystals #crystal #crystalhealing #crystallovers
🎂🎈It’s this little love-monster’s second birthday! Happy Birthday darling Suki ❤️ . To celebrate I made her this ‘cake’ with her normal dog food, topped with beef gerky sausages, cubed cheese, peanut butter and yoghurt. All her favourite things. She didn’t quite know what to do with herself 😁 . #birthday #birthdaycake #cockapoosofinstagram #cockapoo #dogfood @nutrimentraw #peanutbutter #yoghurt #cheese #sausage #spoiltdog #celebration #dogsofinstagram #dog #dogbandana #dogstagram #cockapoolove #cockapoolife
❤️💚❤️There is something about this combination of colours that just makes me happy. Maybe I was Italian in a former life?! 🇮🇹 . . 🍅 Lambs lettuce with beautifully red organic tomatoes, and feta, topped with fresh dill, coriander, basil and parsley. And a shake of dulse flakes. . Served with short grain brown rice, which I cooked in my home made bone broth, and then slathered with olive oil and a drizzle of soy sauce. . . The olive oil is super-delicious and comes from a friend’s dad’s (Italian) olive grove. . . Actually, now I come to think about it, I was singing opera, in Italian, in my singing lesson yesterday. Hows that for a themed post?! 🇮🇹 . . 🙏 It was a big step for me to start lessons, as I haven’t sung since I was a child. But I am LOVING it. I’ve been surprised to realise how much singing and yoga feel interconnected. In both there is a shedding of layers of emotion, opening of the chakras, and control of the breath. And of course the moving of prana through vibrational energy from sound. My teacher described how when you sing opera the sound vibrates at different points of the head depending on the note, and it sounded very much like kundalini rising - moving that sound and energy through the chakra system. Love love love 💕 . . . #salad #lambslettuce #tomato #feta #organic #herbs #freshfood #lunch #rice #bonebroth #guthealth #healing #yoga #yogaeveryday #yogateacher #yogainspiration #chakra #vibration #kundalini #breath #breathing #breathcontrol #karma #singing #opera #italy #operasinger #lesson #student #prana
