The same technique applies for almond meal. Making your own flour is more economic. You get both milk and flour from this technique. Withou...

Ghee is my favourite choice of fat when cooking. It is high in saturated fats which makes it the perfect choice for cooking especially on high heat. Unlike other vegetable oils such as olive oils which have very low heating point and gets oxidized very easily. The fatty acid chains in ghee is so easily digested by the body. Ghee is proven to reduce cholesterol and It is a good brain food. When your brain functions well, everything in the body will function well such as the nerve system, the thyroid system which regulates the hormones in the body and the list goes on. Apart from ghee, I also use coconut oil for cooking due to the same reasons. Our body needs healthy fats and these oils are the perfect healthy fats what your body need in order to function well. Nowadays, we see a rise in `fat phobic´ culture. Most health practitioners and advisor´s are advising people to stay away from ghee and butter but instead opt for the unhealthy margarine and processed vegetable oils such as ...

Smoothies are the best way to consume your vegetables and fruits on the go if you are always busy or just plain lazy to eat them in your salad. The vitamins are still intact as it is raw unlike when you cook them the vitamins gets reduced. I usually have smoothies for my lunch and I love it green. I usually use simple easy ingredients in my smoothies. When making green smoothies you need to add some amount of fats in it in order to make the nutrients in the green vegetables more bio available. Fats makes it easier for the absorptions of the vitamins and nutrients from the vegetables in the body. Adding a type of fruit also makes the smoothie more interesting and delicious. The base of my smoothies is usually a dairy free yogurt. My favourites are coconut and almond yogurt. It is packed with probiotics which aids in a healthy digestive system. One glass of a smoothie is equals to a meal for me. It is nutrients dense and fills me up till dinner time. You can make this in advance at nig...

    Skin is the largest organ of our body. It absorbs every thing that is being applied on it. Most of the time we apply creams that contains loads of crap in it. Doesn't matter if its expensive creams or the ones from the drug store. No wonder more and more people these days are suffering from many unexplained diseases. Especially pregnant women must emphasize on the ingredients what they apply to their skin. In a recent test done on baby umbilical cord have shown around more than 200 type of chemical compounds found in it. Babies are born with loads of chemicals in them. Obviously not all the 200 chemicals comes from lotions and creams but we need to minimise the number by watching what we apply on our skin.  This Body butter is rich in Vitamin E, natural antibacterial and anti ageing properties. It soothes, moisturizes and heals the skin. People suffering from eczema or very dry skin will definitely benefit from this body butter. It contains Tea tree oi...

I must admit that I do get a lot of cravings for ice cream from time to time. Walking pass the gelato lane in the city or even in supermarkets is a real torture for me. It is in a way a blessing in disguise for me cos when I come to think about the amount of calories and sugar that contains in one small pack of ice cream can really give one a heart attack... Gasp!! Doesn´t mean that if you can´t have dairy products then you should forget about having ice cream all together. By substituting the standard ice cream ingredients with healthier ingredients, you create a really creamy and guilt free ice cream. This ice cream recipe calls for only 2 simple ingredients. Its hard to believe but you gotta make it yourself to believe it. You can create different flavours for the ice cream as per to your taste. So now lets get started on the recipe. Hazelnut flavor, strawberry flavor and chocolate flavor For Vanilla Ice cream You will  need :- 2  very ripe bananas 1 t...

Hello everybody... Today I would like to share the recipe of the best ever gluten free and casein free bread recipe. Over the time, I have baked and experimented with many recipes which called for many ingredients... but the bread always turn out tasting like cardboard and breaking into pieces. I am so glad that I have found this recipe. I have been baking this bread like almost weekly. Even my German husband is a fan of this bread. As you all know the Germans have pretty high standards when it comes to bread. So if my German husband approves it, that means this bread is really good. I stumbled upon this recipe on YouTube after a long quest of  searching a good gluten free bread recipe. The lady who posted this recipe on YouTube was Mama Rosa. May God bless her for this bread. I have modified the recipe a little here n there to my need. The recipe calls for xanthan gum... I refuse to use gums in my bread so I replaced it with psyllium husk. Psyllium husk is loaded with fiber and is...

Hi everyone...lately I have many friends asking me how I did it or how I manage to lose the weight that I have lost.. Some of them are expecting me to tell them about a magic pill or a drink that have helped me in my weight lose. I wish that there was really some kinda magic pill that had helped me loss my weight.So they will be happy to hear my answers.... Fortunately I did not fall for any weight loss diet pills scams that is widely sold in the market these days. Instead I opted for a more natural and holistic approach to heal my body and thus aiding in weight loss. All these years of abusing my body with sugar filled, insulin spiking food that I have been eating have created a long term damage in my body and that is including my metabolism. I used to eat to satisfy my taste bud rather than feeding myself healthy nutritious food what my body actually needs. I have came to realize that losing weight is so damn easy. You just need to know the secret to eating the right food and avoidin...

Its been a while since I have posted... Been busy traveling in Asia, My dear Husband was posted to work in Singapore for around 3 months for the Singaporean MRT train project. So i was so happy that my husband have to work at that part of the world cos as you all already know that I am from Malaysia. It takes only 50 minutes by plane from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur. I was super excited for our trip. During the 12 hours flight from Frankfurt to Singapore, I have pre-ordered gluten and dairy free meals for myself. So eating on board safely was covered. Upon arrival in Singapore, We went out to the local restaurant for dinner. It was a local hawker style restaurant. In Singapore you will find mostly Chinese style hawker stalls. Chinese cooking depends heavily on soy sauce and oyster sauce, and as you already know that these two ingredients contain wheat. So its a big NO NO for me. Looking for something gluten free was a bit of a challenge. Lucky enough that I found a small stall ...

I feel so blessed that I was exposed to Paleo. It saved my life and it has saved the life of many other people. Food should be our medicine but unfortunately our food nowadays it is filled with chemical and ingredients that does more harm than anything else. In Paleo lifestyle, its all about being a chef in your own kitchen. Eating more at home than eating out. Controlling what goes into your body. You can still eat cakes and yummy desserts provided its made with healthy ingredients. For me coconut flour is the Holy Grail of all the flours. Its so sacred and soothes my soul with its natural exotic flavour and sweetness. It is low carb and high in healthy fats which our body needs for the well function of our brain and hormones. It is also higher in fiber and protein when compared to wheat flour. It is a better option than nut flour due to the Omega 6 PUFA contains in the nut or seed flour. Buying coconut flour can be hard due to its availability. I have not till now fou...

I used to get sick all the time back in the pre-paleo days. Ever since I have been doing Paleo, which is around a year now, I never got ill that much. Even during winter, where everyone around me is falling sick or catching cold but I survived the virus without getting infected. I guess eating the caveman  way really suits me and it helped boost my immune system. I remembered catching cold and cough  somewhere in January this year. Instead of heading to the pharmacy for over the counter tablets and syrups, I opted for natural homemade remedy. Cos it always worked. I have back in the days always relied on chemical filled tablets, to cure my fever or cough but since I found this remedy, I have never turned back to the pharmacy. This cough syrup is so easy to be made. I mean most of us have these basic ingredients in our kitchen cabinet. You will need raw honey, juice of a few young ginger, and juice of  a lemon. Mix all these three ingredients well and store it in an airtig...

Pack as much of food as you can when you travel Hey its been awhile since my last post. My sisters came all the way from my home country Malaysia,  to visit me in Germany. So we spent a few days in Germany before we started our long awaited Europe tour. We started our tour in Manchester and Southport. The brother from my Maternal grandpa is living there. So we decided to visit him and his family. Our stay there was so amazing. The family were so welcoming and showered us with lots of love and they even catered to my allergies. I mean I felt so blessed. Grandma and her daughter even planned a 2 days London tour for us. We ate mostly in Asian restaurant. We also had our dinner in Nandos on our first day in London. Í even manage to have a delicious cup of dairy free Latte at Costa. Imagine my happiness, you would not find such convenience in my city where I live in, in Germany unless it is in Starbucks in some big cities. After our UK tour we flew back to my home in German...

Pizza ia probably the world's most beloved food. Now when you want to lose weight and live a healthy gluten and dairy free lifestyle, it is hard to let go pizza. Those days when I am in need of comfort food, Pizza comes to my mind and all I need to do was to dial the pizza delivery number and in less than 45 minutes the pizza is at my doorsteps. But now since I am sensitive to gluten and dairy, I have to give up on pizza. So being the Foodie me, I never gave up on my quest to eat Paleo version of my favourite comfort foods.  So now that I can eat pizza again and I want to share the recipe with you. The key ingredient to be successful with a caveman lifestyle is that you have to be a chef. Forget about buying your cookies and cakes from the local supermarket or bakery even when it is labelled as gluten free or dairy free as it contain unhealthy insulin spiking ingredients. You have start to bake and cook all your food yourself. That being said, lets discuss on how to bake the pizza ...

With summer just around the corner and warmer temperatures coming in, my family and I are spending most of our time outdoors in the garden doing gardening, swimming in the pool or even just chilling under the sun. Here in Germany, we have colder days more than warmer days. So when the sun is out shinning, You will see everyone outside on the street or in their garden doing something. They prefer doing outdoor activities when the warmer temperatures hit in. In contrast to my home country Malaysia, where we have warmer tropical temperatures through out the whole year and the people there tend to avoid the sun at all times. We spend our days indoors on our free time most of the time, such as going to the malls or cinema and only in the evenings or at night do we actually go out and enjoy the fresh air. So living in Germany now, I have to adapt to the German lifestyle. The only way for me to keep my body cool while I spend my time outside during the warm days are by drinking lots of fluids...

Today I am going to share with you on how to make your own chocolate bar, with healthy ingredients. Chocolates have always been my best friend. I guess chocolates are indeed every girl's best friend. Food allergy are on the rise these days that including to dairy, gluten, soy and as well to additives in most products from the supermarkets. Chocolates are one of the many items that most people or even children who have allergy, cant have them anymore due to their dairy content and as well as other additives and oil in the chocolates. Even if u manage to find a chocolate bar that is allergy free its often too pricey and contains too much sugar in it. Any one can make anything tasty by adding refined sugar in it. Imagine feeding your kids store bought sugar filled chocolates. No wonder obesity in children are increasing at an alarming rate nowadays. My chocolates is made only with 3 ingredients....Its so easy to make and it uses ingredients that you have readily available all the time...

Bread is my staple for breakfast. I can't imagine living without bread. This bread recipe which I am going to share with you, have really helped my transitioning into paleo lifestyle. I have at the beginning baked quite a number of paleo breads and I must be honest with you... the bread just taste horrible. I could barely swallow it. But I never gave up on my quest for creating the perfect paleo based bread that will suit my taste. Rule no.1 when you are tasting a paleo bread, is that you must forget the taste of the normal gluten and yeast filled bread. You must be prepared to accept a different tasting bread. A bread that will still taste good, look like a bread, fits as bread but not the same as the traditional bread. Once you are ready to accept these conditions, then you are now allowed to continue reading this post. After baking a few breads without success, I am so glad that I have managed with time and experience creating a good flax bread. Baking gluten free and t...
