A Fresh Approach

Is it time for a fresh approach?  January is the re-set button for many of us; a review of our habits both good and bad.  What if there were some life-hacks available to us that turned much of our learned behaviour on its head, particularly towards food?  An excessive festive period has been enjoyed (or even endured) and now it’s time to take back control.

Some of the best produce is available during the winter months; nothing better than field to fork freshness to get those taste buds tingling and your gut health activated.  Leafy greens overflowing on your plate, hidden in a smoothie or blended into a recipe are a great source of vitamins, minerals and fibre. Great examples are kale, spinach, broccoli, cabbage, Romaine lettuce and Swiss chard to name a few.

Combine these with a fabulously fresh protein source such as fish from the North Sea, Welsh black beef sourced from the Conwy Valley, quality British poultry or free range hen eggs and you’re two thirds of the way to a dish filled with goodness and nourishment. Add the spices to enhance the taste; fresh garlic, chilli and onions are guaranteed to take that meal on to the next level.  Cook with a coconut oil, throw in some olives or chop on some ripe avocado and you’ll be fuelled and ready to take on 2019 in no time.

The Hollies Farm Shops are brimming with market fresh produce, locally grown vegetables, fully traceable meats and fresh fish. The choice of artisan oils, olives, spices, fabulous cheeses from a variety of small dairies and nuts & seeds will ensure that you are hard-pressed not to put a healthy meal together.
