It’s the simple things. The honest, uncomplicated, wholesome things that make life truly wonderful.
A quiet pause sipping a warm drink, basking in the morning winter sun before the day’s hustle begins. A cheeky smile from your bright-eyed little one as they sneak into your bed for a cuddle, you notice how big they’re growing and cherish it all the more. A simple meal shared with the fondest of friends, where wine and laughter overflow becomes food for the body and for the soul. A simple moment shared in secret with your lover at midnight. A slow meander along a never-ending shoreline under an apricot sunset. A simple embrace that breathes out the longest sigh of contentment and says, I am happy when things are simple.

No weeknight meal plan is complete without a one-pot wonder that uses up all the veggies hanging around in the fridge. This curry is seriously tasty and fuss-free! If you’re like us and don’t feel like making a curry paste from scratch after a big day, you’ll love this recipe. We made this recipe using an authentic, additive & preservative free curry paste that packs a real flavour punch!
Simple Quinoa Bowl with Smokey Coconut Bacon
This delicious creation is a lunchtime staple at Nutra HQ. The smokey vegan coconut bacon makes it an absolute next level dish, but for an extra speedy version, you could use just toasted coconut chips.
Seared Salmon with Tamari Caramel Glaze and Miso Greens
Gorgeous umami flavours, sticky salty caramel paired with a fresh, crispy salad and earthy brown rice… YUM! This weeknight staple is definitely on the gourmet side but is easy and quick to make.
Pumpkin and Kale Pesto Zucchini Pasta
Once we discovered hemp seeds in pesto, a whole new world of pesto opportunities opened up and we promise you’ll be impressed-o with this pesto! Our take on a kale pesto using hemp seeds instead of pine nuts and Vegan nutritional savoury flakes instead of parmesan makes with an all-around winner for dinner!
This classic family dish of pumpkin, pesto and pasta takes it to a new level by replacing ordinary pasta for zucchini noodles, but you could use almost any veggie that can go through a spiralizer.
What’s great about a breaky bowl is it’s basically a selection of your favourite things you like to eat, all together in one big bowl of goodness. This recipe is a favourite, combining fermented foods, healthy fats, protein, iron-rich kale and nuts and seeds. It’ll keep you feeling satisfied well into lunch time!
Rainbow Bowl with Spiced Turmeric Rice and Green Goddess Dressing
The term ‘eat the rainbow’ couldn’t be more appealing with this eye-catching bowl of goodness! We got a little spiralizer happy with this one, but if you don’t have this device on hand, you can cut the veggies into julienne strips or even buy some fresh store-bought spiralled veg.
