I was recently sent some products from new Kiwi company, the Kiwi Goodness Company. You guys know how much I love my lifestyle and wellness products, so I was thrilled to be able to sample the new range of healthy gummies from this NZ brand. The whole philosophy behind this brand is taking ingredients which have well-known…
One of my goals for 2020 was to reduce the amount of meat I am eating. While I don’t plan to cut it out altogether, I do want to reduce my meat intake and instead try and include a few more vegetarian options in my diet. I always find I feel the best when I eat fresh,…
Three things I love are roasted chicken, roasted veggies and couscous, so as you can imagine this couscous and roast veggies dish is one of my favourite recipes. It’s also so simple and quick to make, and it’s a winner for the whole family (Jack loves it too!). Best of all, you can use leftover roast chicken…
Right now I am all about the quick and simple recipes, and even better if that recipe is healthy and tasty. I’ll be honest, while I love cooking I’m not much of a cook, preferring to make simple things or rely or a recipe. Of course, with a nearly six month month old in the house, I…
A delicious hot chocolate is one of my ultimate comforts, especially when it’s not so nice outside. While Spring is finally here, and we’ve had some amazing Spring days, there’s a storm heading over NZ so there’s no better time to enjoy an amazing hot chocolate. Nothing beats a sweet, creamy hot chocolate with tons of froth…
Ah the Kmart Milk Frother. A genius little appliance that not only froths, but heats your milk, allowing you to make hot drinks almost as good as you’d get in a coffee shop. I purchased my Milk Frother about six months ago when they were fairly new out. Now they seem to be super popular, with many…
While I wouldn’t say I was coffee addict per se, it’s definitely something I used to have quite a lot of. I would enjoy 2-3 cups a day at my peak coffee drinking times, which I know isn’t much compared to some people (I used to know a guy who had 11 cups by lunchtime!). But caffeine…
For the past few months or so, I have been very particular about what I am buying when I visit the supermarket. Instead of leaving with a trolley full of fizz, chips and chocolate, like I used to, I am only buying healthy foods. I’ve dropped a lot of snack foods from my diet and no longer…
Chocolate chip cookies are one of my favourite indulgences, and when I went dairy free I wanted to still be able to enjoy this delicious baked treat…. but without having to break my no dairy diet. I did a little looking around on the internet, but some recipes contained ingredients I either didn’t like (such as peanut…
Chai Lattes have been my go-to drink for years now, often so in the place of coffee. I love the spicy warm taste, and I could seriously drink a few of them in a day! I was quite excited to discover Chai Protein, a protein powder that tastes like a chai latte. It can be consumed hot…
