Even though Spring has officially arrived, soup season isn’t over just yet!

I love making Roasted Tomato Soup this time of year because it’s warming but not too heavy. Plus, it’s one of those familiar foods that can be so comforting during the seasons of change 🥰

The dawning of spring has got me thinking a lot ab

The dawning of spring has got me thinking a lot about change and how the biggest changes are simply a culmination of tiny steps. Sometimes, so tiny the actualization of them is not even acknowledged, especially when we are constantly looking ahead to new ambitions.

Take my journey with homemade dairy-free milk, for example. Having a steady supply was a task that, at one time, felt a little daunting and intimidating. But, as with anything, a little determination and action can go a long way. After many years, it’s now just second nature to have a rotation of almonds, tigernuts and cashews soaking in the fridge. And for the days I don't, I’ll make a quick batch of coconut milk. It’s a goal I have achieved that I completely overlooked because over time it has become an effortless habit.

So, wild ones, what changes have you made that may have been overlooked? Take a moment to celebrate yourself and revel in how far you’ve come!

And as always, you can find my tigernut and coconut milk recipes on the blog!

This Lemon Roasted Crack Broccoli is made on repea

This Lemon Roasted Crack Broccoli is made on repeat in my house. Friends and family even request it when they come over! Which is never a problem because it makes the perfect side for almost any dish. With a mix of chopped almonds, pumpkin seeds and fresh broccoli florets tossed in a lemon garlic sauce and roasted to perfection, it even makes a delicious, crunchy snack!

Winter is the perfect time to nourish and nurture

Winter is the perfect time to nourish and nurture our water element.

This can be done in various ways and may look a little different for each of us.

For some, it might be increasing naturally sodium-rich foods like seaweed, meats, bone broths and brined vegetables.

It could also be getting a healthy dose of bitter foods such as greens, green tea, rapini, cacao and sesame seeds.

It might also look like drinking herbal teas that help flush the kidneys. Dandelion root, ginger, hibiscus and Hawthorne are some yummy ones.

Or increasing foods that support the urinary tract. Cranberries are traditionally favoured in the winter for good reason!

Another way to nurture our water element can be getting in touch with our emotions or taking time for some quiet reflection.

Maybe it’s even just showering yourself with some needed care.

It can also be (one of my personal faves) simply spending time in or near water.

Let me know, wild ones - what’s your favourite way to water yourself?
