Let’s face it most us are probably on some sort of a healthy eating kick right now after indulging over Christmas.  I for one am guilty of this! As much as I enjoyed all of treating myself over the festive season I was quite thankful to get back to my normal eats and my body was quite relieved too.

 Eating healthy doesn’t have to be boring, I mean who wants to be munching on lettuce leaves all day long, not me.  You can still eat well on food that is nutritious as well as it being packed full of flavour.   It can be difficult yo keep creating healthy meals and to remain inspired so I have compiled a list of my top 10 favourite healthy meals from 2012 to give you a helping hand and they don’t compromise on taste either!  I’ve even incorporated some healthy desserts such as cookies and raw chocolate, yum!

1.  Sesame Lime and Basil Falafel

    I’ve a weakness for falafel so I’ll be checking this recipe out soon :)

    Most of my inspiration comes from the Hairy Dieter’s cookbook – they’re my cooking/healthy eating idols.

    Above recipes are great for sure, but what I find very helpful is to let the nature work a bit more. I drink puerh tea after every big meal, as I’ve found out it eliminates unwanted and leftover, hard-to-digest fats. My favourite is Pu-erh 1st Grade, or Pu-erh Mini Tuo Cha cakes. Give it go, it helped me and few other friends.

    Great recipes! It was worth writing it all up again ;) The falafel looks great.

    I think you are totally right, nature has an abundance of healing powers and can work wonders for a lot of things.
