One of the Easiest Meals Ever

This is probably my go to meal when I'm either feeling sluggish (which i'm pleased to say is rare these days), or don't have much time.

Mixed veggies in the top section of the Varoma and Salmon in the bottom section.

Varoma
Speed 2
25mins

EASY!!!!

And as a bonus it is Paleo and super DELICIOUS :)


I find this great for the kids also as the fish is really tender when it's cooked this way. 
Note: I do wrap the fish in tin foil first so the it cooks in it's own juices.

Enjoy!

Planning

Planning is crucial for me to keep my sanity.

Working Full Time, looking after the girls and keeping our home in order makes for one very busy mama (and Daddy of course!). So here's one way I keep on top of breakfast...





I pre-make and freeze around 6 or 7 bags at a time and here's what's in them:

2 Stalks of Kale
1 Stalk of Celery
1 Apple (skin on)
1 Handful of Spinach Leaves
Ginger to taste

Then in the morning i empty a bag into the Thermomix (you can use a blender instead), add a tablespoon of coconut or flax-seed oil, around a cup of water and a handful of frozen blueberries.

Mix on Speed 8 for 2 minutes or until you reach your preferred drinking consistency.

Enjoy :)

Change Is In The Air....

About 9 months ago a friend of mine introduced me to Crossfit and living a Paleo lifestyle. I was completely inspired, however having just had our baby girl Lexi it all seemed too hard, and to be honest i just didn't have the brain space to handle it.

What i did have though was lot's of time to research them. Crossfit is still out of reach at the moment with the times of available classes etc but Paleo seemed very achievable.

So began my adventure of transitioning our family of 4 over to a Paleo/Raw diet lifestyle. It's now been 3 weeks that we have been 90% living this way and I LOVE IT!! I say 90% because Lexi is still on formula which is cows milk based and Mali still has dairy at daycare. Oh and i did have a small cherry ripe the other day (in support of a fundraising drive for daycare...surely that's a good excuse?) so to me we are almost there.

This blog is for recipes, ideas and hopefully a guide on how you too could change your life by what you eat.

Please comment or ask questions if you have them.
