crispy Sardine

Sardines are extremely nutritious. They’re packed with long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, protein, iron, zinc and many other minerals. They’re also a more sustainable seafood as they’re much lower down on the food chain. They are, however, not always the most tasty food! This recipe is a different take on sardines that (at least for me) makes them way more … Read More

There’s just no arguing with the marriage of flavours that are DILL and SALMON. It’s seriously the best! It even makes smoked salmon taste pleasing for me (I’m not normally a fan of smoked salmon, despite loving cooked salmon). You know what, it’s actually just really great with all kinds of fish! Thus, I love having my creamy, flavourful Dill Pesto … Read More

This helps explain why liver is such a great source of nutrients when it comes to eating it! We’re talking ridiculously amazing levels of Vitamin A, Riboflavin, B6, B12, niacin, … Read More

I’m someone who doesn’t eat a lot of dairy – the whey protein doesn’t seem to agree with me. So I’m always sourcing non-dairy foods that are high in calcium. One such food is the humble sardine! Did you know that 100g sardines (with the bones) contains more calcium than a glass of full fat milk? So  this week’s creation … Read More
