The Ultimate Endurance Athlete Smoothie
My husband and I have been on a mammoth training exercise for 4 months now in preparation for Australia’s toughest endurance event – The Gold Coast Kokoda Challenge. We’ve been madly researching extraordinarily healthy ways to get oodles of carbs, protein and energy into us for the 96 km-in-under-39-hours walk (or run for the truly [...]
Scrumptious Healthy Chocolate Fudge
Time for something sweet again! My good friend Suzie, a quietly passionate vegan property investor and author from You Can gave me this recipe for healthy chocolate fudge recently.

I like salad. I like tomatoes. I like olives. I really like onions (for some bizarre reason). Who says [...]
The MOST Incredible Chocolate Pie You’ve Ever Tasted!

Green Wraps
Talk about simple! These green wraps are a great substitute for traditional sandwiches. I once heard bread referred to as “bum glue” by a naturopath so if you’re wanting to reduce your carbohydrate intake, these are a brilliant, yummy and utterly healthy idea. Very satisfying too. Ingredients a few large leafy green pieces – collard [...]
Banana, Celery, Dates.
Seriously. That’s it. Chop it. Slice it. Mash it if you like. Soak the dates if that turns you on. Eat it. Spoon, fork or fingers. It’s yum. It’s vibrant. It’s healthy. Try it. Did I mention yummy?
