Even the simplest of food looks more appetizing when presented prettily on the plate

Even the simplest of food looks more appetizing when presented prettily on the plate. Portion control is important when making how you eat a lifestyle choice not a diet. A smaller portion styled attractively on a small plate will make you feel you've still eaten well and satisfied. Parma ham with fresh figs and green pesto ( basil, pine nuts, garlic and olive oil) dressing and salad leaves.

A Thai Laksa prawn curry

A Thai Laksa prawn curry. When you fancy comforting warming carb-type food instead try a healthy version that nourishes with the warmth coming from chillies and spices rather than starchy or sugary carbs. This is a Thai prawn Laksa with broccoli, basil leaves, pal choi, a few rice noodles, big fat juicy prawns in a thick coconut broth flavoured with chillies, and Thai spices including lemongrass, galangal, fish sauce, coriander and a pinch of palm sugar etc. Yummy. Filling, warming and healthy.

Wednesday filming day

Wednesday filming day. Even when you're filming a TV commercial in a studio and breakfast is served up for the crew members, it's possible not to choose the bacon butty but have the healthy protein and low carb option.

When you’re craving a sweet treat and you’re living a sugar free lifestyle, I discovered this little “cake” in my local health food store

When you're craving a sweet treat and you're living a sugar free lifestyle, I discovered this little "cake" in my local health food store. It's sugar and wheat-free and completely made up of natiral ingredients. See photo with the ingredients listed. It was super yummy and felt very indulgent.
