How great is carrot cake? And how good is chia pudding? Why haven’t I tried to combine the two before? I mean, it’s also a brilliant way of including an extra serve of vegetables at breakfast. Plus it’s filled with warm spices and makes your kitchen smell amazing.
Fish Saag with all the Extra Greens
I really had no idea what to call this! But as we were first trying it my housemate said ‘it’s sort of like a saag curry’ so I’m going with that. Thanks Selena! The sauce is super easy to make and full of all the good stuff – greens, herbs, ginger, turmeric and so on. The flavour is a fresh and relatively mild curry that’s perfect with delicate fish.
Roasted Za’atar Pumpkin with Blue Cheese Ranch Dressing
This is taking sides to a whole new level. For the lat 2 weeks I’ve started each week with a batch of this pumpkin in my fridge to add to different salads and meals through the week because it makes me look forward to eating whatever it is that I add it to.
MEAL PLANS WEEK 33
Whoop Whoop it’s meal plan time again! And it’s my last week of the Gut Makeover! This weeks PLAN A will again be gut makeover friendly for any of those thinking of doing it or just trying to eat less carbs. However, this week I’ve been eating some fermented dairy so it’s still gluten free but no longer strictly paleo or dairy free. And I can’t tell you how excited I was to eat cheese.
GREEN CAULIFLOWER FRIED ‘RICE’
I know cauliflower rice is not new at all. I even have a recipe for it on the blog. But this is so much better than that recipe. Because it has broccoli too. And crispy bits. And cashews. And is easier and I’m sorry it took me so long to figure this out. You can thank this whole no grains thing I’m having to do for forcing me to find THE BEST way of making a vegetable based ‘rice type thing’. An here we are…
LAMB, EGGPLANT AND ALMOND CURRY
I’ve made this curry 3 weeks in a row now. Partly because I was perfecting the recipe and partly because it’s delicious and comforting. The lamb is super tender and the eggplant is just starting to collapse into the sauce making it creamy and delicious. You need to stock your freezer with it now.

ASIAN TURMERIC AND GINGER OMELETTE WITH PEANUT SLAW
Have you noticed yet that there’s loads of cross over ingredients in this weeks recipes? Thats’s because that’s how I normally plan my meals, and it’s oh so convenient. These golden turmeric and ginger laced omelettes are perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
