10 foods I always have in my kitchen


If I want to eat healthy I must keep healthy foods in the house. And that is exactly what I do. Fruit and vegetables are on rotation depending on what’s in season but these 10 bad boys are always in my pantry or fridge come rain or shine. Some of them make snacking a really good idea.

Ginger: I have been buying fresh ginger and drinking it with hot water for years. I remember it helped immensely when I felt nauseous while pregnant with Georgie. I would keep it in my desk drawer at work. I also use ginger in cooking whenever I get the chance. Sometimes I whip it into a paste along with fresh garlic, coat a bunch of vegetables and stick them in the oven. Grate it, chop it, cut it or slice it, ginger is one of the healthiest foods you can have in your kitchen.

Mixed Tape // 2

Another mixed tape! in a slightly different form. I’m back to my usual evening chill routine which basically consists of cooking and listening to music. So over the past two weeks I’ve been jotting down new favourites and teaming them with old loves to create my second mixed tape. Enjoy!
