Scrambled egg whites, smoked and smashed avocado on some homemade fruit, nut and seed bread. The egg whites were left over from my mother's day bakes. Do not throw egg whites away, you can make soup, meringue or omelettes. They are light and fillin
Pumpkin leaves looking rather lovely...Did you know pumpkin leaves are edible? They are high in vitamin A and C. These can be cooked in a similar fashion to any leafy green and have a similar texture to cooked nettle. Perfect addition to curries. I

Hello, My name is Otilia…

I am Otilia Tariro Manungo, I am on a mission to make holistic health practices the new normal. I believe there is more to health than weight management.

I am a Cook, Certified Integrative Nutrition Holistic Health Coach and currently undertaking a BSc in Agriculture. It is my intention to use my agricultural knowledge to bring people back into kitchens in order to tackle food-related health issues. Health is about searching beyond the plate to form a spiritual and emotional connection with food, it is crucial that we stay connected to the essence of food by looking to nature and the ways in which our food is produced.

Healthy living is delicious if you know how to cook and use food as the foundation for self-discovery and development.
