On a low heat add the eggs and slowly cook the egg to a scramble, when cooked to how you like add the cottage cheese and dill.

Plate the scrambled egg, zuchini, onion and salmon or other protein source on the side, I add the kim-chi onto the scrambled egg.




 



Chia Parfait & Apple Crunch


This recipe can be adapted using whatever fruit is in season. Plums, berries, even feijoas or tamarillos would be great instead of apples. If you want to make it dairy free, replace with coconut yoghurt.


Quick Chia Puddings


  • 2 cups milk of choice ( raw milk, almond or coconut)

  • 5 tbsp chia seeds

  • 1-2 tsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tsp vanilla essence


Make the Chia puddings the night before,  combine all the ingredients in a bowl, and while you are making the apple crunch stir the pudding mix occasionally. Then divide the mixture between 6 glasses, cover and put in the fridge.

Note; You can make a quick version of chia pudding. 

just use 1 cup of milk and its should thicken in about 10 minutes. 



Warm Apple Crunch


  • 1 -2 tbsp butter, ghee or coconut oil

  • 1 -2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 large apple

  • 1/4 cup / 60 ml sunflower seeds

  • 1/4 cup / 60 ml pumpkin seeds

  • 1/4 cup / 60 ml hazelnuts

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1 pinch ground ginger

  • 1 pinch sea salt


Preparing the warm apple crunch; chop the apples into 

small dice. Heat butter and honey in a heavy pan. Add 

apples, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, hazelnuts and 

spices, cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring every now and 

then until the apples are golden and soft and the seeds 

and nuts are crispy.


Layering Ingredients


6 generous tbsps plain unsweetened yoghurt, ( you could use coconut yoghurt)

6 tsp nut butter , the runnier the better.

1/2 chopped fresh apple 

1/4 cup organic blueberries, fresh or frozen


Layering the pudding; 

Get the chia puddings from the fridge add a dollop of nut butter, followed by a good spoonful of

yoghurt. Top with the apple crunch mixed with a few fresh apple slices and sprinkle with blueberries.

Enjoy!

If you are using other seasonal fruits  like feijoa or tamarillo just cook the nuts separately and mix with the fresh uncooked fruit. You will probably need to sweeten if using tamarillos so use honey or maple syrup to taste.


 



Gut Healing Morning Porridge


The gut needs fiber and mucilage to function optimally and this breakfast cereal contains both; fiber from the oats and fenugreek seeds and mucilage from the slippery elm and flax seeds. 

Grains like oats need to be processed properly and that means soaking them overnight. 

If you do not like oats, you can swap them out and use other cooked wholegrains like brown rice, quinoa or buckwheat, if you use another type of grain make sure it is pre cooked.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup organic whole oats

  • 2 cups water 

  • 1 tsp fenugreek

  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 cup berries fresh or frozen

  • 1 tsp slippery elm powder

  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

  • 2 tsp ground flax seeds

  • 3 tbsp yoghurt


Put oats, 1 cup water fenugreek and 1 tbsp yoghurt into a pot.

Sit covered overnight.

In the morning, add remaining 1 cup water, cinnamon, berries, water and seat salt.

Bring to a boil.

Lower to a simmer and cook 5-7 minutes, or until cooked, this should take less time as they have been soaked overnight.

Top with flax seeds and remaining yoghurt.

Serve and garnish with berries.
