Lately I’ve been eating a Paleo diet , which for those of you who don’t know what that is, I’ll be sharing plenty more information about very soon.  Basically it’s about eating like our hunter-gatherer ancestors , foods like meat, seafood, fruits, nuts and veggies, and cutting out grains and dairy. To a lot of people starting down this path, it can seem like it takes away a whole lot of your food options, particularly desserts.  I’m here today to tell you that this don’t necessarily need to be the case, you can still get some good sweet foods in if you desire. Antioxidant Power Of Dark Chocolate The trick is to cut way down on sugars, especially from packaged foods and complex carbohydrates, and using chocolate Easy Paleo Chocolate Mousse With Fresh Berries that is really high in cocoa content, minimum 45%, but use 70% if you can. It may seem a little bitter and hard to eat at first, but this Easy Paleo Chocolate Mousse Recipe that I’m sharing right now will show you how you can add a couple of other natural sweeteners like honey to make it really delicious, and most importantly, maintain the  rich dark chocolate benefits of high antioxidant levels with 70% cocoa mass.

    For quite a while now, I’ve been eating food based on the Paleo Diet … in fact it’s been about 9 months since me and my girlfriend first started trying this out.  If you’ve never heard of this, I’ll give you a quick rundown now, although I’m in the process of writing a very in-depth book about it as we speak. The Paleo Diet It’s mostly based on the concept of humans as hunter-gatherers, collecting our food from the land and sea (rather than out of packets!).  Before the agricultural revolution came along and added grains into our diet, humans were strong, lean and fit, we were a lot smarter, and we were all natural! When I speak about diets, it’s really a loose term.  I hate the word “diet”, as it conjures up images of starving or restricting yourself from having certain foods, for short periods of time until a goal is achieved.  I prefer to think of it as a “paleo lifestyle”, as fitness and exercise is also a very important factor, plus this is designed for a long-term approach. Our grain based diet over the past 10,000 years has led to our diminished capacity in many areas, including physical fitness and brain size.  There is a great deal of scientific evidence to back this information up, and over the coming days, weeks and months, All EasyFood Recipes will continue to update you with some of this information, as well as some of the delicious recipes I’ve been cooking up at home. You see, I’m a chef, and taste is definitely important to me (not something you necessarily achieve in the average diet).  Plus portion size can go out the window.  If you do eat the right foods, you can actually eat as much as you want and still maintain an optimal weight level.  For proof of that I only have to look at myself.  My girlfriend often refers to me as a ‘garbage guts’, as I love to eat so much, but because I do eat the right kind of foods lately, last time I checked my weight I was down to only 69kg, and my body fat percentage is in single figures!  The White House Garden For now, it’s important to know that eating fresh food is really the only way, not food out of packets, or food that has been highly processed or frozen.  It might be more difficult to achieve, but it’s worth striving for.  Even Michelle Obama has turned the White house garden into a vegetable patch to help get this message out there!

    Recently I’ve been going through the Golden Rules of Eating Healthy , just to help you kick start the new year with some healthy ideas and information.  This is the fourth and final golden rule of healthy eating – eating with awareness. How To Eat With Awareness In this fast-paced world you may often feel that there’s not enough time for you to pay attention to your diet, but eating with awareness is vital to your body’s ability to digest the foods you eat.  This doesn’t mean you have to be a slave to meal times, but here are some tips that will help your body to digest the food you eat much more easily. Eat in a calm and quiet atmosphere.  How we feel when we eat can actually affect how well we digest it.  Don’t eat when you are upset or angry; instead just hold off for a few minutes to give your body time to settle down a bit. Always sit down to eat, even if it’s just a snack.  Taking time to pay attention to what you’re doing will help to prepare your digestion and allow you time to check in on your true hunger level. Avoid ice cold foods and drinks as they tend to freeze the digestive ‘fires’ that you need to help with the healthy breakdown of foods.  It may take a little time to break the habit, but you’ll find after time you won’t miss cold drinks.

    I don’t usually like drinking a lot of coffee, however lately I’ve been a bit hooked on drinking iced coffees (especially with the weather being so hot!) .  Here is a good way of enjoying such a treat, even if you’re a diabetic . Diabetes And Coffee If you want a good iced coffee drink and you can’t have all the sugar that comes in them, you can make your own from home. Make a pot of coffee from your favorite coffee. Add as much artificial sweetener as you like, and cream if you prefer. To add a dash of home, there are sugar free syrups in flavors like hazelnut and vanilla, and you can add those too. Once you get the pot of coffee made to taste like your favorite cup, there are a few things that you can do with it besides just drinking it hot.

    I just wanted to take a quick break from my current sequence of diabetic recipes and information to wish you, my friends, a safe, happy and prosperous New Year in 2011! This is often a time where we all pause and reflect on the year that has passed.  To be quite honest, this year has been extremely hectic for me, with barely a day off, but it’s also been very rewarding!  I’ve achieved a couple of things this year that I’m very proud of, such as winning my 1st pizza cooking competition a couple of weeks ago, as well as getting my own Pizzas And Parmas Cookbook self-published on Amazon. New Years Resolutions This is also a time where many people make a New Years resolution for the coming year.  I rarely make new year resolutions, but a couple of goals that I have for the coming year include getting back into peak fitness again, and adding a Breakfast Pizza chapter to my pizza cookbook. I would love to hear about any resolutions you have, whatever it might be, in the comments section.  I would especially love to hear if you have made any great achievements during this year that you are particularly proud of, and would like to share with me and the rest of our readers. Have A Safe And Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Most importantly, I wish you all the best for the New Year, may 2011 be a prosperous year for you and your loved ones… and make sure you have a glass of champagne for me!

    Christmas is a time for getting together with family, sharing gifts, reflecting on the year that was, and of course, indulging in large amounts of food and drink!  A traditional Christmas Day lunch in my family usually consists of a great big roast cooked up, often lamb or pork, with plenty of sides of salads overflowing on the table.  However this year, Christmas day is a very hot, sticky and humid 38C here in Perth , so something a little different was needed. Christmas Lunch Ideas Basically once I heard the weather reports coming out in the previous week, I just knew it was going to be way too hot for a roast Christmas Day lunch.  Out of all the Christmas lunch ideas I had, it really came down to a seafood feast for Christmas Day lunch . The Christmas Day Lunch Seafood Feast The reason I chose to have seafood is simply that it’s quick and easy to cook, as well as being a classic type of food to eat in Australia on any hot day, and seafood makes a great gourmet feast to indulge in.  I got myself some Pink Snapper, a good thick fillet, and fresh from the seafood market early in the day.  I also picked up some tiger prawns, all of the seafood is local produce for the freshest possible quality. Christmas Lunch Preparations Begin… Cooking Christmas Day lunch I start by marinading the prawns in some crushed garlic, chilli, basil, and a little olive oil and lemon juice.  This is probably the hardest part of the day, which shows you why this is one of my favourite easy food recipes.  Cooking the seafood is as easy as heating up a frypan to a medium-high heat, add a touch of oil, before adding the fillet of Pink Snapper. Just before adding the Snapper to the pan I seasoned it with some herbs and spices that I had lying around in my kitchen, like lemon pepper, just to add some nice flavour.  Sear the fish for 3-5 minutes on each side, and because it was quite a thick piece of seafood I actually decided to finish it off in the oven to make sure it was cooked through properly.  To do this I just added a little bit of water, almost poaching it in liquid, to keep the Pink Snapper nice and tender, moist and juicy (there’s nothing worse than dried out overcooked seafood).

    Last week I mentioned that I entered a competition to find the ultimate breakfast pizza , and that I would test out a few different kinds.  As a big lover of vegemite from a young age, this was always going to be the first place that I would start Breakfast Pizza With Vegemite – The Concept I love bacon and eggs on vegemite toast for breakfast in the mornings (I don’t do it very often, it’s just a special treat for every now and then) , and this seemed like a natural progression.  It also should be noted that bacon and eggs work really well on a pizza.  I’m not sure about whether other countries and cultures would traditionally have this combination on a pizza, but in Australia you can find this just about anywhere that sells pizzas, and it’s known as the Aussie Pizza! I’ve made all sorts of strange combinations of pizza, most have worked out pretty well, and some have been a total disaster .  I’ve even made plenty of dessert pizzas, however breakfast pizza is a very new concept to me – but I’m loving it!  (I’m even thinking of adding a new chapter to my pizza cookbook , a whole section dedicated to breakfast pizza). Vegemite, Cheese, Egg And Bacon Breakfast Pizza – The Result Breakfast Pizza - Vegemite, Cheese, Egg And Bacon My excitement was building as I began to put this new concoction together, and I was starting to gather some interested onlookers made up of the restaurant staff who wanted to see what I was up to. Their initial responses were a bit less than enthusiastic, but I took it all in my stride and carried on anyway. Anyone who knows vegemite knows that you really don’t need a lot, so I was careful to start with just a thin layer on the pizza base, before spreading the cheese on top.  I cut up 2 rashers of bacon into cubes, which were then spread around.  Lastly, I cracked two eggs, and spread them around as best I could (Note: 2 eggs is probably too much, one would have been enough).

    As I’ve mentioned in the previous post, there are four important elements for making pizza:- the pizza dough, the pizza sauce , the pizza cheese, and of course, the toppings. Today I’m going to share with you the best pizza cheese in my opinion, and why it is my favourite.  There are of course many kinds of pizza cheese you can use, and mozzarella is traditionally the most popular going back through the ages, even right back to when pizza was first invented. There Are Many Varieties Of Pizza Cheese… I’m not just talking about the kinds of cheese that can be added as a topping in this case either, because really, any type of cheese that you can think of can be used to top a pizza, so long as it also works with the other toppings you’re using.  For example, goats cheese works really well on pizza with pieces of roasted pumpkin, caramelised onion, and spinach leaves, however spreading goats cheese over the entire pizza would overpower everything else (plus it’s really expensive!).

    Are you searching for the finest pizza recipe in the history of the planet? There are tons of pizza chefs and eateries out there who maintain that they have the best pizza recipe . Making pizzas has a sense of alchemy about it for me, the way that you can easily turn simple flour and water with a bit of yeast into a pizza dough, and fits somewhere between an art and a science.
