  • As part of my ongoing harvest of #organicallygrown strawberries. I experimented with some savoury notes, to make a #strawberrychutney. I have to say though after trying it, I think it needs a bit of perfecting but I believe the concept is strong. I paired it with this lovely soft peppered #vegancheese from @tescofood #tescofreefrom range. Needs a sharper cheese to compliment it I think...am working on it hahaha. Note: eating in season is a great way of saving some coins. And getting the best in flavour from the fresh foods available. #Toptip : if you dabble in growing your own, share the excess glutt with friends and neighbours. Most people love receiving #homegrown products. . . . #kitchentakeovers #foodstyling @thrivemags #veganfoodshare #plantbased #glutenfree #vegansbelike #flexitarien #gesund #plantpower #plantbasedlifestyle #whatveganseat #starwberryseason #ichigo
  • Happy Friday beautiful people! I'm celebrating the end of rather busy week with a feast for the senses. Replenishing nutrients and #eatingmindfully, the #chickpeas and eggplant in my #chermoula sauce (so, so good). #rawvegan couscous and my absolute favourite #lentilsalad with fresh spinach, olive oil sauté #oystermushrooms and sweet #heirloomtomato #nourishyourbody have an epic evening my lovelies x If you are breaking the fast #happyeidmubarak 😊 #eatshare
  • Gluten free, dairy free, high  in protein and chuck full of vitamins, minerals and fibres. Honestly, what else can I tell you that you’re going to get from munching on a couple of  of them; your colon will thank you. Adding mixed seeds to your diet in the correct portions can aid in brain function, from the omega fatty oils. They can help keep your colon healthy and reduce your risk of cardio vascular disease, due to the soluble and insoluble fibres and healthy fats. And if you don’t care about those things, maybe the fact that the above mentioned properties and other nutrients they contain, will also help with hormone balance. Keep skin and hair healthy, and aid toxin removal from the body might just interest you enough to add more seeds to your diet. . . . . 🌱RECIPE 👉 http://kitchentakeovers.co.uk/2017/10/vegan-seed-crisp/🌱

  • How are you beautiful people? #tbt to this dish... ...got me thinking sometimes reflecting on the past can be a gateway to the future you are trying to build, especially if you've lost sight of your goals along the way. Yesterday, I had the chance to attend some inspiring talks and masterclasses around business and networking. I learnt so much and came away thinking, wow! I have alot to learn. It doesn't matter how far you've come on your journey, or how successful you've become. There is always more to learn... On that note - I'd like to know what you lovely folks would like to see more of from @kitchentakeovers. Is it more #nutritiontopics? #practicalnutrition application? #Eatinghealthyonabudget? Perhaps you just want to see more of me and the things I get up to when am not creating and sharing recipes. 😊☺
  • Happy Sunday beautiful people! Bringing you this tropical coleslaw - cause it was epic. Not like other coleslaws that are heavy on the mayo. This is light, fresh and fruity. Goes with pretty much any meat dish or if you're like me and just love your veg grab a large bowl full and dig in. Recipe: 1/2 savoy cabbage shredded 1/2 white cabbage shredded 2 large carrots coarsely grated 1/2 red onion, finely sliced 1/2 can crushed pineapple 1 ripe mango flesh cut in match sticks 1/2 scotch bonnet pepper finely chopped Handful toasted coconut flakes Mint and parsley to garnish Toss together gently . . . Dressing: Mix equal parts apple cider vinegar and good quality olive oil Add some dijon mustard, bit of sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Shake well and pour over the veg. . . . NOTE: I've not given exact measures for the dressing because it is very much make to your liking. I like mine alittle on the sharp side so I add in some lime juice. Some folks may want it sweeter so add abit more sugar. You see where am going with this? Good...with that said it's a simple and delish side salad/coleslaw. Enjoy! . . . . . #kitchentakeovers #foodstyling #coleslaw #caribbeanfood #islandflavours #tastespotting #jamaicanchef #eatraw #rawvegan #saladfordays #happyhealthy #yourhealthyourchoice #sunshine #sundayvibes #tropicalvibes
  • Okey #KTFAM, its a #tbt! Three years ago today, I got to see 3 of my recipes published in Cross Grain Magazine @coeliacuk and recieved my first lot of glossy #cookeryclass flyers. Happy was an understatement. I have come a long way since then and made so many changes along the way. But, in all the change, challenges, and finding myself drained mentally and physically. Reflecting on how far I've come on this journey has kept me going. THANKS to everyone who have encouraged and supported me over the years. You know who you are and I couldn't have done it without you. Now, it's time for another change and I hope you will all stay with me on this journey... Light and love to you all my lovelies x 💕
  • Wow wow wow! This sunshine got me tripping - guys am so happy to finally be basking in these gorgeous rays. Hope you've all had the chance to top up those #vitaminD levels over the long weekend. I've been sorting my garden getting it ready for some #organicgardening. Truly I can say being out there in nature. Does wonders for the soul, this delish dish was just missing a chilled glass of #whitewine. There's even a space for it - can you see it? #chickemshawarmas #falafelsalad #persiancuisine
  • I went foraging on my lunch break and found some lush 'wildleek' so made me some #scrambledegg on toast 😆😊 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 🎓Latin Name: Allium triquetrum. Can be found in hedgerows, verges, woodland edges, field edges, waste ground and peoples flower beds. 👓 what to lookout for - Long leaves, that are thin and green. They have gorgeous hanging clusters of flowers (white or pink) very much like a white bluebells with six petals, and flowers from April to June. 👀👅 tastes aand smells of spring onion or young leeks. All of the plant is edible. TOP TIP 👉 The young plants and the leaves and flowers can be used in salads or the leaves in soups or stews, the more mature onion like roots can be used as onion or garlic. WARNING: ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK FOOD FORAGED THAT YOU ARE UNSURE OF BEFORE EATING!!
  • Tamagoyaki with fresh salad and #siracha was the bomb for lunch. Honestly this was so darn delish, and healthy. But, I was certainly craving some carbs after! How do people not eat carbs?! Yah'll are crazy. I had to go find myself a piece of wholemeal bread after 😂😂😂 it's about balance folks...BALANCE 😊 . . . . . . #tamagoyaki #healthychoices #simplerecipes #eatwelllivewell #ilovecarbs #carbsarebae #culinarynutritionist #intuitiveeating #noadditives #highfiberdiet #kitchentakeovers #foodstyling #lunchgoals #delishdish #caribbeanfusion #omelette #japanesefusion #eattingforhealth #fitchick #nutritionist
  • More of this soup because it seems these bugs just love me 😑😕 Am here wondering where to focus my energies. You ever get to the stage where you do too much, burn your candle at both ends till the nearly meet? That's been me for the pass couple of months. In all our pursuits for happiness, success and enlightenment I think sometimes we forget (my self included), to take time out and step back from it all. Give yourself space to just BE... #*Note to self ' the grind will always be there'.*#
