Deliciously Balanced Dinners
40+ easy dinner recipes designed by a Registered Nutritionist to take the stress out of the nightly "what's for dinner?" question.
Every recipe uses simple whole food ingredients and is built around a balance of protein, complex carbs, natural fats and fibre to help support stable blood sugars, steady energy and a satisfying meal the whole family can enjoy. Most are quick enough for a weeknight, and many make great leftovers for lunch the next day.
Recipes are organised by protein source:
Chicken - everything from Lemon Chicken Orzo to Coconut & Lime Chicken and Cajun Chicken Drumsticks
Red Meat - hearty favourites like Cosy Cottage Pie with Garlic Mash, Lamb Saagwala and Beef & Pumpkin Massaman Curry
Fish & Seafood - simple, flavourful options like Honey Miso Salmon, Fish Tacos with Pineapple Tzatziki and Coconut Crumbed Hoki
Vegetarian - satisfying plant-based meals like Dhal with Spiced Paneer, Satay Tempeh Tacos and Thai Green Tofu Curry
Also inside:
GF, DF and low carb labels on applicable recipes, so you can quickly find meals that suit your dietary needs
Pantry Staples Guide - the ingredients I always keep on hand to make balanced meals easy
Weekly Meal Planner Template - a simple tool to help you plan your week, save time and reduce food waste
Educational introduction covering macronutrients, blood sugar balance and principles for a healthy relationship with food
