Ingredients You Should Have In Your Pantry At All Times

Fact: eating well is a million times easier when you’re organised. But while spending your entire Sunday meal prepping sounds like an epic idea in theory, come day 3 of chowing down on the old roast veg/steamed rice/poached chicken combo, UberEats is almost always enticing.

Enter, these non-negotiable pantry staples (courtesy of WHfitfluencer and celeb nutritionist Jessica Sepel.) With a little creativity (and her expert intel) these will help take any meal to the next lev. Food boredom, be gone.  

1. Olive oil or coconut oil

These two are my oils of choice for cooking. They’re rich in essential fatty acids which support metabolism, hormonal health and skin health. Plus, they have a delicious taste and I love a little olive oil drizzled over my salads.

2. Dried Spices

Some of my favourite spices to use in cooking are turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, ginger and cumin. They’re medicinal, great for supporting wellbeing and add an extra layer of flavour to my recipes. 

Double tap for this CLEANSING GREEN SOUP??? This is giving my liver soooooo much loveeee ☺️ As you can see from my Insta stories, I’ve been making soup all weekend ? This is the zucchini soup from the blog/book 1 with extra broccoli, leeks and curry powder. I love topping my bowls of soup with crunchy kale chips and almonds. You need the crunch factor ? What’s your favourite soup ??

3. Almond Meal

I always have almond meal on hand. It’s great for baking healthy recipes and is rich in protein and healthy fats. 

Ohhhh ? JS Coconut & Macadamia Banana Bread… freshly baked… it’s so damn good. Who wants? ?‍♀️?‍♀️ The recipe is coming your way so soon!

4. Oats

These are always a pantry staple. They’re so nutritious, satiating and quick to prepare. I love a warm bowl of oats with fresh fruit for breakfast. 

Ok ok ok…. can’t even deal with how deeeeelish. BERRY, ALMOND & COCONUT CRUMBLE…. served with cold and creamy vanilla coconut ice-cream ?? Been making this so often. Hands up who wants the recipe?? ?‍♀️ • Remember that indulgence with moderation is part of a healthy life. You don’t have to deprive yourself of any of your favourite foods ..ever ☺️ This concept really transformed my relationship with Food! X

5. Nuts and seeds

They’re so versatile. Add them to your breakfasts, sprinkle them over salads, pop a few in your healthy dessert or take them for an afternoon snack.
