Here’s a favourite protein smoothie packed full of protein, fresh berries and abundant superfoods. This ol’ smoothie is always a hit anytime of the day. If you’re wanting to restore your gut health or lose weight in January, then I recommend you do not use frozen berries or add ice to your smoothie as it will be too cooling for your gut and exacerbate any bloating or digestive discomfort you may be experiencing.

Mothers' Day Peking duck pancakes
Here's a way to your Mother's heart - that is if she's not a vegan! So get quacking down to your local Chinatown, pick and pluck a duck to take home. They'll cut it for you and take the bones away of you ask nicely. This is the fastest way I know to get that Peking feeling without lining up for the Duck Nazi on Smith Street or paying Flower Drum prices. 12 small or 24 very small round gluten free wraps 1 roasted Chinese duck, especially cut for Peking duck 1 large cucumber, peeled and sliced … [Read more...] about Mothers' Day Peking duck pancakes

The Princess and the Pauper
As it's Melbourne Cup day in Australia, I thought I'd re-post a traditional racing recipe that is all about celebration and not so healthy. There's still time to make these snappy little sangas - recipe below - before you head out to the track.

Salad of smoked trout with quinoa
This recipe was originally created for a segment on What's Up Down Under TV with Frankie J Holden, which you can watch here. The shoot was at Hastings Point, about 25 minutes north of Byron Bay on a very windy weekend morning. Frankie J was just hilarious and we had a ball together! I've swapped the original couscous for quinoa, which works just as well. That's the thing about quinoa, you can dress it up or down, make it sweet or savoury and it always works well. It's highly nutritious and you … [Read more...] about Salad of smoked trout with quinoa
