Mint and grated cucumber raita🥒✨ I adore Ind

Mint and grated cucumber raita🥒✨

I adore Indian cuisine, including its yoghurt side dish raita - the perfect cooling accompaniment to a spicy curry!

This raita is refreshingly creamy, and textured yet light. It features grated cucumber (with a nifty technique to squeeze out excess water), fresh mint to dial up the cooling effect, and a hum of earthy cumin. When made with ‘live’ probiotic yoghurt, it can provide a boost to your good gut bugs too!

Recipe live on the blog, link in my bio.

Note: while there are many raita recipes out there, this one is inspired by Charmaine’s Solomon’s in the ‘South East Asia Cookbook’🙏🏻

Avocado chocolate mousse🥑🍫 Feels kind of ret

Avocado chocolate mousse🥑🍫 Feels kind of retro now (so 2015💁‍♀️), but still darn delicious.

Blend five ingredients in a food processor and you’re left with a yummy plant-based and dairy-free chocolate mousse.

This recipe uses a nifty technique where it chills coconut milk, helping give the mousse a super thick and creamy consistency (at lower temperature, the saturated fat firms and voilà👌!).

Cold-smoked salmon pesto-cream cheese pinwheels✨

Cold-smoked salmon pesto-cream cheese pinwheels✨. These are the most delicious appetiser (or lunch!). They’re fun to prepare and full of flavour.

They’re as easy-to-make as spreading a wrap with a two-ingredient pesto cream cheese spread, layering over slices of @regalsalmonnz cold-smoked salmon and rolling tightly. From there, leave in the fridge to firm and slice.

@regalsalmonnz salmon has a well-deserved reputation for its exceptional flavour, vibrant color and buttery texture. Nutritionally, it’s a great source of quality protein and important minerals, and also offers a rich source of omega-3 fatty acid.

Want the recipe? It’s live on the @regalsalmonnz website now, the direct link is in my bio.

✨The most wonderful + engaging evening with @drl

✨The most wonderful + engaging evening with @drlibby for her ‘Bouncing Back’ tour. So much wisdom, passion and good vibes!💃

As a @bioblends ambassador it was a pleasure coming along to her New Plymouth event. I’ve been a long time follower of Dr Libby’s work, and are always in awe of her exceptional science communication - she makes tricky concepts accessible, improving health literacy🙏🏻.

Dr Libby is touring across NZ in Sep-Oct, talking to the widespread sense of exhaustion and emotional depletion many are grappling with due to life challenges. The event delves into relevant biochemical, nutritional and emotional influences on health and wellbeing, along with practical strategies and inspiration - you’ll leave with plenty of takeaway tips👌.

To find out where she’ll be speaking next and to book tickets, check out the link in my bio✨ #drlibby #bouncingback #bioblends
