Spiced Pear and Apple Protein Smoothie

I wanted to share with you a wonderful protein smoothie because it’s a light and refreshing snack, perfect for a warm summers day.

As you peel the fruit, make sure you eat the skin because it’s also packed with added nutrition and fibre. Because this is a raw food snack packed with a healthy balance of protein and carbohydrates, you will get a huge healthy pick me up from drinking this once or twice a week.

I use Pulsin’ Whey Protein Isolate in my protein drinks because it is one of the best quality proteins available on the market today. Their whey is produced from from grass fed cows that have been reared without hormone treatment and is 100% vegetarian. It also contains no added sugar, is gluten free, has no trans fats and is non GMO.

It’s almost as if you’d gone to the farm to collect it […]

How to Eat Healthy on a Budget

This is a question that comes up a lot and I am a big advocate for how to eat healthy on a budget because I know from personal experience that it can be done.

Now I don’t have any children (unless you count furry ones with paws and whiskers!) but a lot of the meals I make are for 4 and I just freeze the other portions so I know that they can feed a whole ‘family’.

Plan Your Meals
The number one tip is to plan your meals every week. Every single week I write a menu so that I know what I’m going to eat before I even step one foot into that week. This gives me control over what I eat and how much I spend on it. I’m […]

5 Superfoods to Boost Your Health

It’s so important to eat healthy foods that are packed full of vitamins and minerals; they provide energy for everyday tasks and also contribute towards your weight loss.

I’ve chosen 5 of my favorite superfoods that will boost your health and make you look and feel wonderful.

You can enjoy quinoa in a savoury meal or a sweet meal.

How to Reduce Body Fat

I get asked by women all the time why they aren’t able to reduce body fat despite doing regular exercise.

My response goes like this…

Your diet is one of the most important factors in reducing body fat. If your diet is out of whack then it simply doesn’t matter how much you exercise; you will NOT get the fat burning results you want to see.

Did you know that an average cheese burger has between 250 to 350 calories; that’s without any added extras like fries and soda! You could probably consume way over 1000 calories in 1 meal!

Did you also know that it would take you at least an hour doing laps in a pool and an hour running on a treadmill to burn off those 1000 calories? So that’s 2 hours of full […]
