Warm winter LCHF porridge
Breakfast is the one meal of the day that people changing over to a low-carb, grain-free lifestyle struggle with the most. The good news is that there are many breakfast options that you can “primalise”. Breakfast doesn’t always have to be eggs – although eggs are your BEST choice and CAN be eaten every day.

So I encourage you to put that apron on and get into the kitchen and have some fun. Keep reading for the recipe for the winter porridge. Read the rest of this entry

I literally jumped at the chance to inform them how to be “sugar smart”. This post will teach you that important life skill too. Read the rest of this entry

It has been a fabulous tool in helping my family transition to a grain-free, sugar-free, low-carb lifestyle. This post details all the wonderful things I do with my blender. I hope it gives you some new ideas. Most of all I hope that it inspires you to give this “grain-free” approach to eating a go. Of all the things my family has changed about the way we eat, I would have to say that avoiding grains and gluten has been the best thing we have ever done for our health. Read the rest of this entry
