Raw Chocolate Mint Slice
You can have abs and have your dessert too! Especially a healthy high protein dessert that is also dairy free, sugar free, gluten free and low in carbs. Made mostly with pre-soaked nuts of almonds and cashew, and sweetened mostly by dates and maple syrup. It also has spirulina, which adds the fresh green colour to the dessert while packing it with antioxidants and B-vitamins. The chocolate contrasts really well with the mint, making it a decadent yet refreshing protein bar - great for pre ...
Epi 5 Part 2: Snapper Thai Mango Salad
I love Asian food and spices and sometimes find clean eating and salads lacking in the flavours I am familiar with. So this dish, Snapper with Thai Mango Salad proves that we can straddle both the flavours and yet keep this meal sexy, fresh and low carbs. You can always alternate the use of palm sugar with honey or maple syrup or use less of the amount called for. However, the salty, sweet and sour taste of the dressing is in the balance of those ingredients. I am using locally caught snapper ...

Smoky Shakshuka
This recipe is inspired from one of my favorite cookbook author, Yotam Ottolenghi. What I like about this recipe is it can be vegetarian, without the bacon. It can also be a paleo, high protein diet.
While we are at this, it is also gluten-free and lactose-free :) Besides that it also photographs stunningly, the velvety red tomato contrasting against the silky white and soft runny egg yolks.
My version is a smoky sexy one, tuned it up using smoked paprika and liquid smoke. If you ...
Hulk’s Power Balls
Feeling like some super power to energize my Spartan team mates for Race Day. So I decided to make these Hulk-friendly balls!
Matcha (green tea powder) is full of antioxidants and coupled with dates and almonds, makes a tasty snack worthy of warriors. Heck, if you have little ones, tell them Green Arrow & Green Lantern live on them for their supernatural powers and hopefully wane them off the unhealthy stuff too! Besides Superheroes, this recipe is also Paleo, Vegan and ...
Cauli 2-Ways with Nuoc Cham
The pale cauliflower never turned me on as much as his beautifully green cousin broccoli does. Always felt that the white inflorescence is rather tasteless and bland unless consummated with cheese and milk in a gratin. Recently though he has been courting me unfailingly, and I finally succumbed because he is low in fat and carbohydrates and rather high in Vitamin C, with fleeting appeal of Vitamin B and K. Besides his sensibilities, I discovered he is also pretty flexible and I can ...
