Intermittent Fasting - Have you tried it?

I am a big advocate of fasting, I started it almost 10 years ago, initially to lose some weight after my daughter was born, but I have kept it up as the health benefits are fantastic and it really helps with my inflammation and gut health.

But fasting has a bad rep! And everyone thinks it’s just about cutting calories and losing weight, but that’s not the case at all.

With so much conflicting advice on Social Media, I can understand why people are confused.

Is fasting really bad for women?

Is it bad for perimenopause?

Are you helping or harming your hormones?
and how does it support weight loss?

These are the questions I’ll be discussing live with with Niamh Burke, keto and female hormone expert, tomorrow (Wednesday) at 1 pm!

So join us live or pop any questions you have in the comments below and we will answer them for you, the replay will also be on my page.

Happy 8th birthday to my beautiful boy 💙

This year he is mad for BMX and skate parks so I alway theme his cake with his current interests!

And I realised I have the cake board upside down 😂

We moved home from Australia when he was just 8 weeks old, can’t believe he’s 8 now, time really does fly!

It’s National Potato Day, so why not try out these Taco Loaded Potato Cups!

These crispy potato smashed potato cups are really easy to make and very versatile as you can add any fillings you want. You can make them in the air fryer too, but as I was making a large batch I popped them in the oven, but you can get smaller muffin trays.

For the Potatoes:

Preheat your oven to 200c.

Parboil 12 small potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, until tender when pierced with a knife but not falling apart.

Brush a muffin tray with olive oil, then pop in the potato and use a shot glass to form the “cup” shape.

Brush the edges with olive oil and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

For the Taco Mince:

600g beef mince
4 tsp smoked paprika
4 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely diced
2 tsp garlic, minced
1 tbsp tomato paste
150ml passata

In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the beef and break it up with a wooden spoon until browned all over, about 5-7 minutes.

The mince is browned, add in all the spices and stir well to coat the meat evenly.

Add the tomato paste and passata and stir to combine.

Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture thickens, if it’s too dry you can add some water or stock.

Loaded Cups:

Then when the potatoes are ready, spoon in the taco filling, then add some grated cheese and pop back in the oven for about 10 minutes.

Serve with some sour cream, a sprinkle of paprika and some jalapenos!

LOVE TO BAKE? 🎂

I recently signed up as a Consider it Cakes baker, dropping off this vanilla cream sponge earlier today. Consider it Cakes is a volunteer group who “bake the world a better place, providing free birthday cakes in Ireland for asylum seekers and the homeless to brighten up their day. 😁🎂

It’s a fantastic organisation and a great way to give back to the community. 💚

There’s no minimum requirement, bake on your own schedule, whether you contribute weekly or monthly, or occasionally, every cake helps!

Check out the pinned post on their Instagram page on how you can sign up!

It’s LIVE!!! 📚📚📚

Finally, after several setbacks, my e-book is live!

When I started this book I didn’t realise how long it would take, so apologies for the delay! As well as running this page, I work part-time as a Business Operations Manager, and I’m also a full time mum to my two fabulous children, so there were a lot of late night hours to get this finished!

The book contains my own personal journey recovering from IBS, as well as lot of information and practical tips on how to improve your gut health. It also contains 36 delicious recipes that have been throughly tested and are perfect for all the family.

I also love to support Irish brands as much as possible and I have included a list of my favourite stockists that provide gut healthy products.

I am really happy with the result, and I hope you will be too! As always, I really appreciate your support, and thank you for allowing me to work in this space that I love ❤️

To purchase the book, click the link in my bio, and I’ll post to stories and ad as a highlight also.

While we worry about presents and food, and what movie to watch next, there are people going through unimaginable suffering. Posting this won’t make a difference but the more people speak out the better. It’s not something we can ignore because it’s too difficult to watch. Feeling so grateful for the Christmas I’ve had, and that my children are safe. 🕊️
