1 week ago by brownpapernutrition Hi friends, please excuse my radio silence as we've launched into 2020 I had a little break from social media to refresh and have honestly just felt a bit speechless with the bush fire devastation in our country so haven't been posting, rather I've quietly plugged away with $ donations to different charities, donated supplies to any of the collections possible and have been supporting those close to us, in particular my family, caught in the fires. My aunty has had to evacuate her home, it's situated right in the middle of the two southern fires, as a family we
3 weeks ago by brownpapernutrition #simplification Lots of New Year resolution chats happening this time of year and before the anxiety of wtf shall I resolve to do and an epic long list appears before you I just wanted to drop this thought which is - it’s ok to resolve to do less. Doing less and simplifying things doesn’t make you any less. In fact, if anything, just doing a few less things but doing those chosen things with INTENTION will mean you are doing more - because of the QUALITY of your attention to it. I scaled back on SO MUCH in 2019 and
3 weeks ago by brownpapernutrition INDIAN SPICE SAUSAGE ROLLS WITH RAITA : Most of my sausage roll creations come about from leftover veggies, a handful of herbs and a well fuelled spice rack. I don’t ever recall going out and physically purchasing anything for them and that I think is the best principle when it comes to these things – especially when there’s some cheeky pastry to wrap around it like a present to your tastebuds. Having oats, eggs and sunflower seeds on hand helps here but no doubt you could do with breadcrumbs and whatever other nuts or seeds you might have for some
1 day ago by brownpapernutrition I didn’t want to share too much of our excitement for this little person whilst there is so much devastation in our country, but after speaking to a few friends and being reminded that with all darkness we must also have light to look forward to I thought maybe a bit of bump might be ok to share here too. Can’t wait to meet this tiny human... only about 6 weeks to go. Love. #34weekspregnant @svendsenfitnesshealth
3 days ago by brownpapernutrition Mum sent me home with some chocolate melts she didn’t know what to do with ... I had two options, 1/ eat them straight up, as they delicious 2/ be kind and get my bake on even though temp and humidity feels like 45 deg C today. Option 2 evidently won, the melts didn’t melt and I am not one bit worried about it. I’ve done plenty of melting today for everyone This ALMOND BROWNIE recipe is a quick variation from one I’ve got on the blog and it’s nek level... especially with cheeky chocolate care of the my lil

Lunchbox friendly savoury Sweet Potato Egg Muffins

by Jacqueline Alwill

Diving back into school this week and I have some ripper recipes for lunchboxes for you kicking off with this one – SAVOURY SWEET POTATO EGG MUFFINS. Kids love these (actually big kids do too…) because they’re easy to pick up and eat, pack like a gem in a lunchbox, taste delicious and for some reason (*wink wink) their tummies aren’t hungry again within the hour…Must be all the juicy hidden veggies including MACRO SWEET POTATO POWDER – only available at Woolworths!

The powder is such an awesome and convenient way to sneak more nutrition into kids meals and snacks – works really well in both sweet or savoury. I’ve also popped some MACRO NUTRITIONAL YEAST into this recipe which are a great option for those who are dairy free. Nutritional yeast has B vitamins for energy (as part of a healthy diet) and contains vitamin B12 too! Seriously delicious, wholesome and nourishing on all levels!

SAVOURY SWEET POTATO EGG MUFFINS

Makes 6-8

Gluten free : Dairy Free : Refined Sugar Free : Paleo

2 tablespoons Macro Sweet Potato Powder

2 tablespoons Macro Nutritional Yeast

12 free range eggs

1 (300g) red capsicum, seeded and diced

1 cup (20g) baby spinach

1/4 cup (5g) basil leaves, shredded

Optional: pitted and sliced kalamata olives

Preheat oven to 180C and grease an 8 cup muffin tin with olive oil.

Place Macro Sweet Potato Powder, Macro Nutritional Yeast and eggs in a large bowl and whisk well to dissolve sweet potato and nutritional yeast into the egg.

Divide diced capsicum, baby spinach and basil between 6-8 muffin holes, then spoon equal portions of the egg mixture over the top.

Add sliced kalamata olives if desired.

Bake in oven for 20 minutes.

Cool in tin and enjoy.
