I love porridge. I have it almost every day for breakfast. And by ‘almost’ I mean that if I’m eating breakfast at home, chances are I’m eating porridge. Sometimes for dinner too, if we’re being really honest here. But it’s not like I don’t know how to make other things, I just get a little stuck in my ways. OK I’ll admit, today’s breakfast ideas post is probably more for me than for you. But whatever, let’s just hope everyone’s a winner….
The best chicken and corn soup
OK I need to preface this chicken and corn soup recipe by saying that the core of it is from an old Women’s Weekly recipe. It’s been my favourite soup since I was a kid, and it’s so easy to make! As I’ve grown into an adult (who still needs her mum to remind her of the original recipe) I’ve made some minor changes, upped the heat and bulked it out a little (because #carbs)….

Corn Fritters for World Health Day 2016: Beat Diabetes
Do you want to hear something scary? According to the World Health Organisation, the number of people in the world living with diabetes has nearly quadrupled since 1980. Diabetes Australia quotes that in Australia, 280 people are diagnosed with diabetes every day. That’s one every five minutes. And that figure doesn’t even take into account the number of people currently living with pre-diabetes. Diabetes complications can lead to serious health complications, including heart attacks, stroke, blindness, kidney failure and limb amputation. And the scariest part of all – but the part that should also give us the most hope – is that the most prevalent form of diabetes (type II) is entirely preventable….
Moreish Choc-Nut Muesli
My name is Jessica and I am addicted to chocolate muesli. I swear I didn’t used to love chocolate this much… in the ‘which would you choose first – lollies, ice cream, chocolate or chips?’ game (that I’m hoping everyone else plays or now I just sound weird), chocolate was always sitting down the bottom at number four. But now it’s all I can do to keep my dirty mitts out of the jar it’s kept in. Try it for yourself and you’ll understand why……
Valentine’s Day Un-Baking – Raw Choc Cake
Whether you’re single, taken or at the gym, Valentine’s Day is a good excuse for one thing: chocolate. But if you’re staying strong on those New Year’s resolutions (go you!) and are looking for a healthier alternative to the regular store-bought stuff, this post is for you. It’s a raw chocolate cake, developed by the team at Kamalaya Koh Samui, aka my dream holiday destination. I had them on the blog in 2015, talking meditation and sleep, but now we’re really into the important stuff: chocolate….

Date, Coconut, Nut & Goji Muesli with Butterscotch Surprise
I love muesli. The toasted stuff. The beautifully golden, deliciously sweet toasted stuff. In fact, I love it so much that usually I don’t keep it in the house. It is D-A-N-G-E-R-O-U-S. But sometimes you’ve just gotta live on the edge, you know? So on Sunday I cooked myself up a big batch. Cos I’m crazy yo. I’m proud to say I’ve only eaten about half of it so far and that’s pretty good going in my books, because it’s damn tasty stuff….
