The Munchies.

Finish work at 1pm. Staaaarving! Must. Resist. Buying. Sushi.

I quickly made my way home and flung open the fridge door and decide to cook up a super tasty omelette. Screw those high GI white rice sushi rolls with their over processed chicken cooked in chemical laden sauces.

Mix together in a bowl:

2 free range, organic eggs
Red onion
Goats fetta
Mushies
Grated zucchini

And cook in an omelette pan on the stove with some extra virgin olive oil.

When mostly cooked, throw on some basil from the garden and tear up some pak choy leaves. Then fold in half. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkling of chia seeds.

Too easy xx

PS. Rest assured, not all sushi is bad. But when it's purchased on the run as a 'quick fix' from one of those little kiosks with flavours like turkey and cranberry or chicken ceasar, turn the other way!

Snack attack!

How often does this happen to you…

You’re at work and the hunger pains set in. Only trouble is you didn’t bring any (or enough) food with you to get you through the day to leave you feeling energised and happy. So you end up buying a muffin or whatever is convenient to satisfy your hunger, even if it's not the healthiest option...

Be prepared people! The more healthy snacks you have at work, the less likely you are to buy unhealthy food or a coffee during the day. I find that this happens to alot of mum's in particular. Even though they pack their kid's lunchboxes for school, they don't think about their own needs. Pack yourself a lunchbox!

*Stock your shelves with herbal tea bags rather than black tea and instant coffee.
*If you have a fridge at work, keep small tubs of Jalna or Gippsland Valley (green lid) yoghurt, hommus or miso soup paste for whenever you need a snack.
*Keep a zip-lock bag or a small container of nuts and dried fruit handy as well.
*Other foods to have on hand include a packet of corn thins, tins of tuna, bolied eggs, vegie sticks, Carmen’s muesli bars.

*Fresh fruit like apples, mandarins and bunches of grapes.
*At the start of the week bake a batch of muffins make on spelt flour instead of wheat flour. Google “spelt muffin recipes”.

*Or make up a zucchini slice in muffin tins, felafel balls or fish cakes.

Yum!!
