This is one of my favourite healthy snacks when I’m craving something sweet and salty !

I call it a Hot Date
• 2 Medjool dates
• 2 thin slices (30 g) Aldi Tasty Cheddar Cheese
• Sprinkle with sea salt & drizzle of hot honey 🍯 optional a few chilli 🌶️ flakes

Approx. nutrition:
✨ 250 calories
💪 8 g protein

Sweet, salty, simple, and so satisfying! 🤍

This is a great energy-boosting snack, especially before going out to do a water and lick run on the farm or after doing cattle work or when you just need something to tide you over until your next meal.

When the Kids and James are digging into a big bowl of spaghetti bolognese, this is what I make for myself. 🤎

I still get all the delicious flavours of a classic bolognese, but by swapping the pasta for butter beans, spinach and creamy cottage cheese, I’m boosting the protein, adding extra fibre and cutting back on the carbs. It’s quick, filling and keeps me satisfied for hours without feeling like I’m missing out.

Sometimes healthy eating doesn’t mean making two completely different meals - it just means making a healthy version for yourself.

🌈Rainbow Salad with Mango & Crumbled Goats Cheese 🌈

What you’ll need:
• 1 packet of Asian salad mix (or any salad mix you’ve got on hand)
• A handful of spinach leaves
• 1 red salad onion, thinly sliced
• 1 red capsicum, sliced
• Cherry tomatoes, halved
• Cucumber, sliced
• 1 juicy mango
• ½ packet of goats cheese, crumbled

How to make it:
Just toss everything into your favourite salad bowl and give it a good mix. Simple, fresh, and so delicious.

Country Mumma Tip:
I squeeze the leftover pulp from the mango seed straight over the salad — it makes the best natural dressing. But use whatever dressing your heart desires! 😍

Enjoy,xox 🥭
