Loaded Sweet Potato
Loaded Sweet Potato
In last week’s Newsletter I addressed lowering high blood pressure and along with a whole range of suggestions including lowering your sodium intake I mentioned increasing foods high in potassium. So this week’s recipe is a potassium rich meal idea. It’s delicious. I enjoyed making it and loved even more eating it. I did add salt as I have low blood pressure and my partner who lowered his blood pressure significantly following the guidelines I shared last week is now fine to have salt in moderation too.

Waldorf Salad
Waldorf Salad
When we were growing up my dad often requested a Waldorf salad. It wasn’t until a couple of weeks ago when I was invited to a shared meal gathering that I actually had made one. I drew inspiration from Yotam Ottelenghi’s cookbook Plenty More. It will definitely be on my table for celebration dinners and am thinking for those who celebrate Thanksgiving this could be a winner. This isn’t a traditional Waldorf salad it has a few additions.

I was on a mission to perfect the filing for sausage rolls. My research involved buying many different vegan sausage rolls.

This recipe is the result of much delicious research and I not so humbly confess that you won’t find a better vegan sausage roll filling than this.

Breakfast Congee
What do you eat for breakfast? Do you eat the same thing every day or vary it up? My mum told me as a child that if you have breakfast you set yourself up for the day. Even science proves this. Studies show that if children don’t have breakfast their bodies struggle with absorbing the nutrients they need in the day and some studies show that children perform worse at school if they don’t have breakfast.

Diversity and Inclusion
While I acknowledge that I come from a place of privilege as a white, English speaking, able bodied, educated woman I always strive to be inclusive. I am aware that I have not always considered the barriers that others have to face in everyday life. However, I strive to provide a safe and inclusive learning space and continually seek ways to improve, to make the work I offer even more inclusive.

Acknowledgement to Country
I acknowledge the Midginbil people of the Bundjalung Nation as the Custodians of the Murwillumbah area where I live and support people with their health through food.
I pay my respects to the Midginbil Elders across time and wish to express my appreciation for your continued custodianship despite the injustices your community has faced. I have deep appreciation for the way you provide a harmonious balance between feeding the community and providing environmental conservation.
Always was and always will be Aboriginal Land. Jingi Wala.
