It’s Damn Delicious!

No, it really is. This week, we’re looking to food blog Damn Delicious for some red meat bliss with a healthy twist.

Enjoy!

In keeping with this week’s morning sickness post, we’re showing love for heroes lemon and ginger

 

While we’re sure this recipe is delightful as it is, if you want to make it super healthy for your pregnancy, why not substitute some ingredients. Instead of peanuts, try using walnuts instead, which are a great source of folate, fibre and protein. And as opposed to using Basmati rice, use a whole grain variety, packed with even more fibre plus vitamin E, selenium and phytonutrients, which are plant compounds that protect cells.

Enjoy!

Ciao, bella!

It turns out you don’t need to leave the country for a taste of Italy. In fact, if this recipe from Asda wasn’t easy enough, you can even order all of the ingredients required direct from the recipe’s page!

Enjoy!

It turns out, every little really does help

Straight from the fresh food aisle of Tesco, this recipe creates a little dish that packs a punch. The salmon is a great source of protein and Omega-3 fats while the little piece of ginger could help with morning sickness.

Enjoy!

This bit of heaven could all be yours in just over 30 minutes!

The best pasta meets the ultimate superfood (beans) in this gorgeous recipe.

Bright and tasty!

This week’s recipe is courtesy of food blog The Awesome Green. Originally made with poached egg, we’ve decided to scratch that from the ingredients list for a vegan and pregnancy-friendly recipe.

Tasty, healthy and beautiful, it’s so colourful, it’ll have you thinking spring has come early.

Enjoy!

The mother of all pregnancy recipes

This week’s #RecipeSaviour includes such great, healthy ingredients (spinach, eggs and mushrooms) and is so easy to make, we can’t think of a reason not to try it. Remix it by substituting the potatoes for sweet potatoes to really up the superfood factor.

Enjoy! 

Pig out with a twist

If you thought you’d have to wave goodbye to the beloved burger because you’re pregnant, think again. Fast food restaurants might be best avoided, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make it yourself, knowing exactly what’s in it and topping it off with a much healthier alternative to chips. With lean meat being one of the top pregnancy superfoods, it’s the perfect excuse to get stuck in. 

Enjoy!

The perfect lunch recipe that really packs a punch

 

Popeye’s not the only one who benefits from a generous helping of spinach. The delicious dark veg is full of vitamins and nutrients and has even been found to promote eye health! Turns out the sailor man really was onto something… This recipe also includes walnuts, which are also great for pregnancy.

Enjoy!

Far from a student's meal

The ramen noodle is enjoying a rebirth (excuse the pun). No longer merely fodder for the poor, it’s the ‘It’ ingredient. Perhaps best loved for its versatility, you can cook it with virtually anything. Which makes it perfect for a pregnancy dinner. Pack it with all the superfoods for the healthiest ramen noodle recipe EVER!

Enjoy!

It’s all about the peas…

 

Who else would you trust for a healthy AND tasty recipe but Jamie Oliver? This week, we look to the man himself for a delicious meal for two. So that’s one for you and one…for seconds? 

Enjoy!

Lean on meat

 

Lean meat is a great source of nutrients during pregnancy. So you can relish that steak treat every once in a while. But medium-rare is not an option.

Enjoy!
