DANA ✩ NZ FOODIE
Greetings from Queenstown 👋🏻 Currently in my Greetings from Queenstown 👋🏻 Currently in my happy place being surrounded by good food, beautiful scenery and amazing walks 🌲 If you’ve been keeping up with my stories you’ll see I’m out of the kitchen and in Queenstown for the next few days!! After a funny year for us all, this little break is definitely much needed 💖 Swipe to see what I got up to today (or should I say what I WALKED UP) it’s worth it trust me! ⛰
Eating the rainbow, one teriyaki chickpea bowl at Eating the rainbow, one teriyaki chickpea bowl at a time 🌈 Whipped up this colourful bowl the other day for lunch - made up of spinach, carrot, @jasberryrice_nz rice, crunchy toasted chickpeas and a drizzle of teriyaki sauce. All served in my coconut bowl @coconutbowls 🥥 • • TERIYAKI SAUCE // CHICKPEA RECIPE: 1. Drain/rinse chickpeas (I used x1 standard tin) and pat dry and roast in a 200 degree C oven for 10-15 minutes until golden, stirring them frequently. 2. While chickpeas are cooking, combine 4 tbsp soy sauce, 1-2 tbsp brown sugar, 1/2-1 tsp cornflour, 1/2 tsp minced garlic, 1/4 tsp ginger powder and 1 tsp seasame oil in a pot on low heat until combined. 3. Once chickpeas are roasted, stir them through sauce and assemble your bowls with anything you like. 4. Pour remaining sauce over your bowls to serve.

Simplicity ✨ Sometimes just keeping it simple is Simplicity ✨ Sometimes just keeping it simple is the best way to go - like this smashed kumara on toast 🍠 Kumara is definitely my favourite vegetable - I find it super versatile, perfect for mash, perfect as fries/wedges, steamed or roasted or even in your baking 🍠✨
CARAMEL SMOOTHIE 🙌🏻✨ With the warmer days CARAMEL SMOOTHIE 🙌🏻✨ With the warmer days soon upon us it’s time to get some smoothie inspiration ☀️ This was a delicious caramel inspired smoothie with swirls of @fixandfogg almond maple and cashew butter whirled through it 🌟 • Like with most of my smoothie recipes I don’t have exact measurements as it’s always just throw everything in but here’s the details in case you feel inspired: Frozen bananas Almond milk (I like my smoothies thick so I don’t add too much) 4-5 dates soaked in hot water to soften 1 tbsp @fixandfogg almond maple cashew butter 1 scoop @twoislandsco salted caramel protein powder
Mmmm I just want to dive right into this bowl of c Mmmm I just want to dive right into this bowl of creamy smoothie goodness 🏊🏻‍♀️ I did actually have a reel on this smoothie but it’s just not cooperating with me at the moment so we’ll just stare at this photo instead 🤤 The usual chocolate salted caramel smoothie, with added maca + hemp smoothie booster by @realfoodco.nz and topped with @puredelishnz snacking clusters 🌟
Look at that pour 🙌🏻🥞 Sweetening up your Look at that pour 🙌🏻🥞 Sweetening up your week with this delicious stack of pancakes, with that all important syrup pour shot of course 🥞 If you’d like to see how I make my pour shots I made an Instagram reel for it over on my page! Just click my profile and click the little play button icon under my bio/highlights and it should be there, otherwise I’ll link it in my stories 🙌🏻 Tbh not sure how I feel about Instagram reels? What are your thoughts? They don’t feel long enough to actually make a decent video, maybe with practice I will get there 😂 might just have to make some IGTV or YouTube videos instead 💁🏼‍♀️
SALTED CARAMEL PROTEIN FUDGE RECIPE BELOW ⬇️ W SALTED CARAMEL PROTEIN FUDGE RECIPE BELOW ⬇️ Who wants a piece? These fudge bites are super creamy and easy to make! The perfect sweet and salty treat with an added protein hit 🌟 • • RECIPE: 1/3 cup cashew butter 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter 1/3 cup maple syrup 5 tbsp coconut oil 1 tsp vanilla essence 2 scoops (50g) @twoislandsco salted caramel protein powder Sea salt flakes • • 1. Add all ingredients except protein powder and sea salt to a pot on low heat and whisk until smooth and coconut oil has melted. 2. Once smooth, take off heat and stir in protein powder. 3. Pour into a silicone mould such as a loaf, mini muffins or mini loaves like I did as a silicone mould will make it easier to get out/smooth. 4. Place in freezer for a few hours until set and take out of mould and cut into bite sized pieces. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes. 5. Store in fridge in an airtight container
