Today's episode is with me, Fiona Staunton of Fionas's food for life Below are 10 tips that I hope may help you take some of the hassle and stress out of the Christmas dinner. 1. Now : Make your red cabbage now and freeze for Christmas, Dessert: Make your Christmas pudding well in advance, (if you don't like traditional pudding, why don't you make a chocolate biscuit cake version). Alternatively, a lemon tart would be delicious if you don't want traditional and can be made 1-2 days in advance. Or a pretty Christmas meringue wreath. 3. Menu: Plan the menu, keep it simple, but tasty. I usually opt for Smoked salmon salad Turkey,baked ham,red cabbage,garlic sprouts and roast potatoes and cranberry sauce. Christmas pudding with brandy butter 4. Outsourcing: Outsource items to other family members, eg ask a brother to bring the ham, a sister to bring the starter and your mother to bring the plum pudding, made from an old family recipe! It can be a lot of pressure, and financial burden on one person. 5.Decoration: Get the kids involved in place settings or decoration. I find that girls in particular love craft and decorating things, why not get them to make place names for everyone? I have a recipe for edible gingerbread decorations, e.g. place names and a recipe for edible presents, pecan cookies. Time: allow extra time when cooking the main course. Remember that when you have lots of things going on in the oven, it can take longer for things to cook. Allow the turkey to stand for 30mins before carving. 7. Turkey & Ham: Buy enough to have some leftovers the next day but unless you enjoy making up batches of curries or pies don't buy a massive turkey or ham! If you don't want to deal with a large turkey, why don't you get a boned and rolled turkey from your butcher? Buy the best quality you can afford, eg organic bronzed turkey.Bake the ham the day before, have it hot on Christmas eve if you like, chill overnight but serve at room temperature on Christmas Day. 8. Gravy: Make the gravy the day before, to prevent the last minute pressure. 9. Brussel sprouts: The supermarkets and veg suppliers are loaded up with Brussel sprouts in the lead up to Christmas, it is traditional but not most people's favourite veg! Why not give a modern twist and shy away from the overcooked soft sprouts of our youth? If you shred them and steam fry in garlic and olive oil and top with bacon lardons it can be delicious. You can shred them the day before, store in the fridge covered in damp kitchen paper and they only take 5 mins or less to cook. Here is my recipe. 10. Cheese: Ireland has some amazing cheese. I think it is a wise investment to visit somewhere like Sheridan's Cheesemongers or a good local deli and buy a selection of Irish Cheese. While you may not eat it on Christmas day, a nice cheese board can make a fabulous, lunch, supper or final course to any dinner and if kept well will last for the whole holiday. Happy Christmas!

Let's make the Lemon Asparagus RAW VEGAN soup from Lissa' Holiday Menu plan that is currently part of The Plant Based Bundle - http://bit.ly/PlantBasedBundle This is a great cozy recipe to make for the holidays and you don't have to eat cold soup on a raw diet! Learn some tips and tricks from Lissa, who did her first 5 years raw in the cold climate in Canada. Lissa has followed a high variety low fat raw vegan diet for over 8 years. Cleared up cystic acne, lost 70 lbs, balanced her hormones and mood and most importantly, healed severe gut dysbiosis. With gut disease running in her family (IBS, colon cancer and crohns disease), she makes it a top priority to focus on high fiber variety and gut health. Lemon Asparagus Soup - serves 2-4 depending on what else is served with this dish For the Chunky part: 1 cup chopped asparagus 1 cup chopped green beans 1/4 cup chopped onion + 1 tbsp lemon juice 1 clove of garlic, grated Soup base: 1/4 cup hemp seeds 2 tbsp sesame seeds 1 pitted medjool date 1 tbsp miso paste 2 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional) 2 tbsp lemon juice 3 cloves of garlic 2 large rings of yellow onion 1/2 tsp onion powderr 1/4 tsp dried thyme 1/8 tsp chipotle powder 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes 1/8 tsp black pepper 2 cups water Optional toppings: Fresh thyme or rosemary Lemon zest or slices A sprinkle of hemp seeds Microgreens of choice Creation: 1. The night before, chop the asparagus, green beans and onion into bite-sized pieces. Place on a plate and in the freezer overnight 2. About 2 hours before, mix the lemon juice and garlic thoroughly with the frozen veggies. Put these on a solid dehydrator tray and leave in the dehydrator for about 90 minutes at 110F 3. When ready to eat, blend the soup base ingredients on high in a high-speed blender for about 2 minutes or until the soup is slightly warmed. Skim off any excess air bubble. Using a vacuum blender really helps lessen excess air in your soup 4. Take the veggies out of the dehydrator and add to a large bowl. Pour the soup base over the veggies and mix. Serve immediately with optional toppings and enjoy! Find this recipe in the Holiday Menu plan that is part of The Plant Based Bundle! You can find the bundle here: http://bit.ly/PlantBasedBundle

If you've ever fantasized about exchanging vows in the beautiful city of Dubai, this is what you need to know. We'll go over everything you need to know about arranging a wedding in Dubai, from selecting the ideal venue to hiring the proper vendors, in this post. So, whether you're just getting started planning your big day or are well into it, keep reading for some helpful tips. Here are the things you need to consider, starting with The Location. One of the most crucial decisions you'll make while arranging your Dubai wedding is selecting a wedding venue. When choosing a venue, there are several aspects to consider, including budget, guest count, and desired mood. After you've considered these factors, you may begin to limit down your choices. The Dubai Opera House is a favorite choice among couples searching for a lavish venue. Consider staying at the Burj Al Arab, one of the world's most recognizable hotels. The Palm Jumeirah is also a great alternative if you prefer an outside wedding with magnificent views of the metropolitan skyline. 2. Recruiting Vendors. It's time to start hiring suppliers when you've secured your location. This is when things can become a little daunting, because you'll need to acquire a lot of different vendors to pull off your perfect wedding. To make things a little easier, compile a list of must-have suppliers (think: photographer, florist, caterer, etc.) and then start looking for them. When it comes to finding vendors in Dubai, we recommend asking friends or family members who have previously married in the city for advice. Before making any final judgments, study internet evaluations and meet with possible merchants in person. 3. Make a Menu Plan. It's time to start preparing your menu now that you've secured your venue and vendors. One of the most crucial – and often most difficult – components of wedding preparation is choosing a venue. We recommend seeking the services of a professional caterer if you're not sure where to begin. They'll be able to assist you in creating a menu that not only suits your budget but also reflects your own preferences. 4. Locating the Ideal Photographer. Finding the appropriate photographer is one of the most crucial – and often most difficult – components of wedding planning. It can be difficult to limit down your options in Dubai because there are so many outstanding photographers. We propose that you begin your search by looking at possible photographers' portfolios and reading internet reviews. Once you've chosen a handful you like, make an appointment to meet with them in person to discuss your wedding photography concept. Some Other Considerations. There are a few extra considerations to address when organizing your wedding in Dubai. For example, before your big day, you'll need to get a marriage license from the Dubai Courts. You should also double-check that all of your vendors (including your photographer) have the necessary permits to work in the city. Final Thoughts on Wedding Planning in Dubai. Although planning a Dubai wedding may appear to be a difficult undertaking, if you follow these guidelines, you will be able to put together a stunning and memorable celebration. Congratulations, and good luck with your plans!

Jumping off of last week's conversation, Jenn takes us on a deep dive through triggers. Of course events and holidays are one thing but what if you always eat a snack at 3pm or can't go to the movies without thinking about movie theater popcorn? It's ALL HERE. And maybe your solution to foods that trigger you is to simply not have them in your home. That can work, sure, but Jenn advises we eventually want to move past that. Better yet, she helps us with HOW to do it. Then it's all about emotional triggers and what we can do to make it easier on ourselves. This might be an episode you listen to in parts and then again a couple times. There's SO much here!

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-size, bonus episodes offering tips, tricks and approachable science. Wait, why aren't we talking about a food thing? We are!

Leave me voice mail feedback at: 971-208-5493Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kitchencounterpodcastTwitter: @TKCpodcastEmail: feedback@kitchencounterpodcast.com Kitchen Essentials: Menu Planning This kitchen essentials is about menu planning. This was a request from a friend and listener, BJ. She wanted to start getting back into the kitchen but was looking for some insight on menu planning. Here you go BJ, thanks for the suggestion! My philosophy on menu planning: I don't want to give you a template or a routine to follow. I want you to put some thought into your goals, and what kinds of methods work best for you. From there you will be able to adapt my basic menu planning process to suit your style. So why is menu planning so important? Menu planning will bring you the following benefits: Save time (fewer trips to the store, fewer impulse buys, fewer trips for takeout) Save money (buy only what you need that week, less wasted food) Eat more nutritious food (you can plan in advance what you are eating and rely less on spur of the moment decisions that may be less healthy) Have more success in the kitchen (yay!) Before you start a menu planning process, you need to figure out what your goals are. Do you want to try to make every meal at home during the week? Are you only planning for dinner? Are you looking to ease into home cooking by maybe making three dinners at home per week? Do you already cook a lot at home and are looking for ways to make your meals go farther, or save money each week? Chances are it's a combination of things, but it's important to understand what you want before you sit down to do meal planning. Think of menu planning as a process that you'll start out slowly and build up week after week, until it really becomes part of your routine and you are fulfilling the goals you've set for yourself. I would encourage you to skip fancy apps and programs and start with good old fashioned pencil and paper. By doing this you'll really start to understand what goes into your meals. Start with Brainstorming If you are starting from scratch, I'd first start by doing some "brainstorming" work. Take a blank sheet of paper, and make two columns. In the first column list out all of the dishes you know how to make and might want to include in a menu plan. In the other column, list dishes you don't know how to make (but would like to learn), and might want to put on your menu plan. Unless you are planning to make every meal at home from scratch, you should also include those meals you prepare at home but aren't entirely "homemade," e.g mac and cheese from a box, spaghetti with jarred sauce, etc. Remember the goal here is to help plan a menu, not just list out those things you'll make at home from scratch. As tome goes on you may find yourself wanting to make mac and cheese from scratch, and you can start to make that instead of the boxed stuff. Step by step is the way to a successful menu planning process. After you do some brainstorming, I recommend building the list over the coming weeks so you really start to put together a big list of dishes to inspire you each week when you plan. These are your "stable" of dishes to pull from and put in the rotation, which you can then supplement with new or experimental dishes as you see fit. When you start to think about what to put on your menu, start thinking about the ingredients that can be used for more than one meal. Pork roast can do double duty with potatoes and carrots one night, and then go into pork tacos another. That amazing tomato sauce you made is great with spaghetti, and will also be a great base for Spanish rice. Throw some chicken breasts in the crockpot and make pulled-chicken sandwiches one night, and use it as a topping for BBQ'ed chicken pizza another. I think you get the idea. Another good one: get a salad spinner and always have some green/red leaf lettuce on hand for an easy and quick side salad (once you wash and spin it, store it in the fridge for a week and it's ready to go)! Time to Menu Plan! Ok, so now that you have a list of dishes from which to draw from, let's make a menu plan for a period of time you'd like. In our house, we generally make a plan that starts with Sunday, and ends with Friday (Saturday is usually an open day where we are free to do whatever we want). Following this model, write down each day of the week with some space for you to put down the meals for that day. Think about what you have going on that week that will affect your menu. Do you have a late night on Wednesday and you won't be home to cook? Well then be sure not to plan a meal at home for that day. Do you have a day where there will be fewer (or more) people for dinner? Be sure to take that into account. There are times where I won't be home until later in the evening, so we only plan a meal that is enough for my wife and son. Start writing down the meals you plan on having for those days, including those meals you don't plan on making yourself (eating out, etc), and note which dishes or items will be used for multiple meals. Menu Plan Grid Shopping & Lists Then after you have those meals listed, you can start to build a shopping list based upon the dishes you'll be preparing. Be sure to check your pantry for items you may already have so you don't buy more than you need. We try to do all of our shopping for the week on one day so we don't have to run out to get things during the week. It maximizes our at-home time in the evenings so we can spend more time with the family. The exception as I noted before is if we need to pick up any items that day for dinner for freshness reasons (e.g. fish). Keep in mind when shopping to be flexible; if the peppers you planned for your veg side don't look fresh, but the broccoli right next to them looks delicious, don't be afraid to switch it up and sub in the broccoli. Also be aware that when you menu plan and shop, try to use the more perishable items earlier in the week, and in some cases, you may not want to buy a certain item until the day you plan to make it. A good example: you want to make a nice baked salmon dish on Friday, it would be a good idea to make a quick stop at the fishmonger's or grocery store to pick up the salmon that day, rather than say, buying it on Monday and leaving it in your fridge for four days before you make it. Great resource for shopping lists! Tips: -Build a list of the items you regularly need for dinners in a word processor or spreadsheet, and you can print off multiple copies to use throughout the year without recreating a list each time. -Checking out ads for what is one sale at the grocery store can help give you ideas and inspiration for what to put on your menu for the week. -Make sure you keep your menu visible throughout the week (perhaps put it on the fridge or family bulletin board) so you can refer to it and remember what you are making that week! -Leave some flexibility in your menu plan (e.g. maybe leave an "open" night for whatever you feel like doing; getting a pizza or takeout, or throwing something together from whatever is leftover in your pantry at the end of the week). -If you need a little more strucure to guide you, try designating certain nights for certain types of meals (e.g meatless Mondays, pasta Wednesdays, fish Fridays, etc).
