10 Quick tips to get started

But first here are 10 QUICK TIPS for getting your body reading to blast that belly fat once and for all.

  1. reach for water as your preferred drink
  2. make your own iced green tea for the hot weather
  3. slow down and chew your food
  4. try fermented foods like kombucha and sauerkraut
  5. reduce your intake of fructose
  6. reach for high fibre foods
  7. enjoy a side of leafy greens
  8. fill up on lean protein
  9. add spices to boost your metabolism
  10. avoid junk food as much as possible

Egg and Asparagus Salad

Start your day off right with the Egg and Asparagus Salad. You can have this prepared and on the table in less than 10 minutes, so that you can be out the door in no time.

It’s loaded with protein, leafy greens and healthy fats to ensure you are satisfied for longer AND it avoids ingredients that can lead to bloating.

Herbed Chicken Wrap

For lunch, this Herbed Chicken Wrap is another quick meal. Just 15 minutes and a handful of fresh ingredients is all you need.

It can be even quicker if you use some leftover cooked chicken from another meal. Planning ahead is key to success!

Beef, Pineapple and Broccoli Stir Fry

The whole family will love this 20 minute Beef, Pineapple and Broccoli Stir Fry. Not only is it easy to prepare, it’s loaded with flavour and belly blasting ingredients like lean beef, chilli (which is optional) and green veggies.

Feel free to change up the veggies depending on what you have on hand or to your family’s tastes.

Passionfruit and Coconut Slice

Just TRY to keep little hands off this amazing healthy snack recipe. This Passionfruit and Coconut Slice makes a whopping 16 serves so it’s perfect to make at the start of the week and share with your crew (if you want to that is).

It contains healthy fats to keep you feeling fuller for longer and avoiding the need for extra snacking all throughout the day.

And the best part is, we are giving you a sneak peek at the recipe for this tasty slice so that you can try it out right now. You need to soak the nuts overnight so prepare this one the day before you want to tuck in.

Ingredients

  • 3⁄4 cup macadamias
  • 1 & 3⁄4 cups cashew nuts
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1⁄4 cup rice malt syrup
  • 1⁄2 cup passionfruit pulp – fresh or tinned

Method

  1. In separate bowls, cover the macadamias and cashew nuts in water and soak overnight. Drain and rinse when ready to prepare the slice.
  2. Using a food processor, blend together macadamia nuts, 3⁄4 cup of the cashews, coconut oil, vanilla extract and 30ml of water until well combined. The mix doesn’t need to be super smooth.
  3. Add the desiccated coconut to the nut mix and combine well using your hands.
  4. Line a square cake tin with baking paper and press the nut and coconut mixture evenly into the tin, then set aside.
  5. Prepare the top layer of the slice by using a food processor and blending the remaining cashews with the rice malt syrup until a creamy and smooth consistency forms. Stir through the passionfruit pulp to combine.
  6. Spread the passionfruit mixture evenly over the top of the base and freeze for approximately 3 hours or until firm. Slice into 16 pieces, one piece is one serve.
  7. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Makes 16 pieces at 172 calories per serve.
