Broccoli and Fennel Soup

The nutrients in broccoli are great for the brain and the fennel in this broccoli soup gives the soup a subtle enticing flavour. This recipe couldn’t be much easier!

If it suits your diet, chicken stock can be substituted for the vegetable stock.

Gingered Beef

This easy, yet impressive, beef steak recipe is courtesy of the lovely Tracey Pattison. It is just one example of a dish from her beautiful cookbook, “Healthy Meals: Love to Cook”.

Peanut Butter and Honey Popsicles

by Leanne Foreman

If you are a fan of the peanut butter and honey combination, then you will be a fan of these super easy popsicles.

Peanuts are a good source of protein, healthy fat, and vitamins and minerals that are good for the brain. However, if you have a peanut allergy, just use almond butter instead.

Raw honey is not heat treated so will eventually crystallise. I personally love it in this “candied” form but if you prefer it runny, then just set the honey jar in the sun for a day.

To make this recipe vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey.

 

Bacon, Feta, Mozzarella & Kale Frittata

This egg Frittata is an easy option for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

The kale can be substituted or mixed with spinach or silverbeet.

If you can’t source nitrate-free bacon, simply leave it out.

Corn Fritters with Avocado Creme Fraiche

by Chef Alastair McLeod

These savoury breakfast or brunch Corn Fritters by Chef Alastair McLeod have the added goodness of fresh off the cob corn kernels. The easily-made Avocado Creme Fraiche takes them to an even higher level of deliciousness.

Rainbow Salad

by Leah Follett

This is a close adaption of a recipe by my friend and colleague Leah Follett. This recipe first appeared in her book “A Well Fed Heart”.

Raw Dark Chocolate

by Leanne Foreman

This chocolate recipe is so easy that I don’t bother buying the expensive version in the stores anymore.

Cocoa butter can be found in most whole foods stores, but keep your eye out, as I found mine in a Spanish and Italian Food grocery store.

If you like it sweeter you can increase the honey or maple syrup up to 1/2 cup.

For my last batch, I replaced the vanilla with a few drops of food grade pure peppermint essential oil. I would suggest you add a drop at a time until it suits your taste. Next time I am going to try sweet orange essential oil.

Gayle’s Green Breakfast Smoothie

by Gayle Lawrence

This smoothie recipe is courtesy of my friend and mentor, Gayle Lawrence. It is packed with all the nutrients needed for a good start to the day.

The Slippery Elm powder can be optional, however it is very healing for the gut so perhaps add a little at first then work your way up.

Fresh Pea Soup

by Leanne Foreman

This is a quicker, fresher version of the usual split pea soup. Once all the ingredients and utensils are gathered, it can be on the table in 20 minutes.

If you follow a Dairy-free, Vegan, or Paleo diet, use coconut yoghurt instead of dairy cream or yoghurt, or leave it out altogether.

Sticky Date Muffins

by Anja Cass from Living With Plants

Anja Cass from Living With Plants has done an amazing job at making these vegan muffins taste just like mini sticky date puddings, especially when they are egg, oil, dairy, and refined sugar-free. They can even be gluten-free if you use gluten-free oats.

Great for breakfast or morning tea, or as a lunchbox or after school treat.

Chocolate Gummies

by Leanne Foreman

These delicious little chocolate gummy treats are actually good for you because of the gelatine that is used to make them gummy-like. Gelatine helps to heal and protect the lining of your digestive tract.

If you can’t tolerate coconut milk, then they are just as good using water instead.

Be careful not to get the mixture hotter than what you can comfortably touch, as a good way to make sure there are no gelatine grains left, is to ensure the mixture feels smooth between your fingers.

An alternative to the chocolate moulds is a glass baking dish. Once the gummies are set, cut into squares and enjoy!

Raw Raspberry Mini Cheezecakes

No I haven’t spelt cheese incorrectly. It’s vegan so no cheese allowed! This special occasion recipe is a perfect alternative for those who are dairy intolerant. As usual it is also refined sugar free!

Easy Dairy-free Chocolate Mousse

I hope you will try this Chocolate Mousse recipe. I have tried to made it as foolproof as possible, however it is very important to have your eggs at room temperature and that your eggs are very fresh with no cracks.

It is also important to use the best quality dark chocolate that you can afford. It should have 75% cocoa and the fat content should be cocoa butter and not the cheap and nasty “vegetable oil”.

As well as Dairy-free, it is also Low FODMAP, Nut-free, Paleo, and Vegetarian.

Fish in a White Wine & Mustard Cream Sauce

I have been cooking this easy yet impressive fish dish for over 30 years! It can be served over brown rice, mashed potato or pasta. I usually serve it with a salad, or with buttered green beans and honeyed carrots.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Raspberry and Yoghurt Popsicles

Because these refined sugar free popsicles have only three ingredients (or four if you like rosewater), they are super easy to make.

If you don’t have popsicle moulds then simply use small straight edged glasses or plastic cups.

Be sure to use coconut yoghurt if you want the Dairy-free, Paleo, Vegan or Low FODMAP version.

Satay Chicken Curry

An easy and delicious curry using a base of coconut cream and peanut butter.

Simple Bruschetta

Bruschetta (pronounced bru-sket-ta) is often served in Italian restaurants yet is super easy to make. This is the traditional way of preparing it as shown to me by my Italian brother-in-law, Tom. It is important to use a good quality, full flavoured extra virgin olive oil.

Baked Parmesan Zucchini Wedges

An easy way to transform zucchini from boring to brilliant. Great as a side dish or as party finger food!

Beetroot Dip & Olive Tapenade

These dips are super easy and super nutritious because they are made from raw ingredients.

The Beetroot Dip has been kindly contributed by Leah Follett and the Olive Tapenade by Rowena Jayne. Like me, both of these women have a passion to help as many as possible to live a healthy and happy life.

Vegan Pad Thai Salad

This easy salad is perfect as a summer meal for vegans and non-vegans, as the protein is provided by the nuts and sprouts. It is also a great side salad for a BBQ get-together.

Choc Banana “Sneaky” Shake

This delicious chocolate banana shake is a “sneaky” way to serve a little fruit and vegetable to fussy kids. I would suggest to start first with a teaspoon of each of the optional add-ins and then work your way up to a tablespoon, which in Australia equals 4 teaspoons.

Easy Baked Apples

This version of Baked Apples couldn’t be any easier. It is dairy and refined sugar free, so it makes an easy-to-please dessert, snack or lunchbox addition.

Parmesan and Herb Crusted Salmon

by Leanne Foreman

This is an impressive, yet easy, gluten-free crust of parmesan, herbs, and almond meal. It will turn a plain piece of salmon, or any other firm fish, into something special.

4 Ingredient Roast Chicken

This is the easiest way to roast a chicken and because it is cooked with the breast down, it is the juiciest as well!
