About Me

My photo
I think every meal (yes, every meal!) can and should incorporate some kind of fruit or vegetable. This is a blog that will show you how. I'm a Health Advisor by trade, which means I help people find easy, realistic ways to tweak their eating and exercise habits to maximise their health and well-being. I firmly beleive being healthy is not about dieting, skipping meals, cutting out food groups or exercising until you can't see straight. All you need is to move more, and vegetate your plate!

Individual Salmon and Broccoli Bites



What's Good about Them?

The salmon and chia seeds (if you choose to add them/have them available) are a mega dose of brain-friendly Omega-3's, the broccoli packs a punch of vitamin C (more than an orange!) and best of all, they are mega easy to make and transport well for a perfect packed lunch. Let the nom nom nom commence..

What You'll Need:

- 300g salmon
- 1 head of brocolli
- 4 eggs
- 1 tub single cream
- 100ml skim milk
- 1 handful spinach
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds to thicken (optional)

The How-To:

1. Preheat oven to 180c
2. Cut the brocolli small (no bigger than bite-sized), and steam until soft
3. In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, cream, milk, chia seeds, brocolli and salmon. Gently mix through the spinach last.
4. Pour into cupcake cases* and cook approximately 25 mins (until middle is not gooey)
5. Serve with a crunchy side salad

*note on cupcake cases: I use silicon bakeware. I cannot vouch for how this might turn out in paper cases. I imagine it could get a little messy...!
