One of the biggest nutrition myths we still see? That canned foods are “less healthy” than fresh. In reality, they can be an incredibly practical, nutritious and budget-friendly option to support balanced eating. They’re affordable, convenient, long-lasting and can help you boost nutrition and throw together balanced meals in minutes.

Here are some of Michelle’s top canned pantry staples to keep on hand:
đŸ«˜ Lentils, legumes + beans‹🐟 Tuna, salmon + sardines‹🍅 Tomatoes, corn + beetroot

Not sure where to start? Try adding them into meals you already make to stretch them further and boost fibre intake:
✅ Add brown lentils to spaghetti bolognese‹✅ Add black beans or kidney beans to Mexican mince‹✅ Add crushed tomatoes to curries, soups and casseroles

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be perfect, sometimes it’s simply about starting from where you are with what you have 🙌

We’ve shared some of our favourite fuss-free pantry meal ideas and recipes over at The Lifestyle Dietitian.

What’s one pantry staple you always have at home? 👇

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated đŸ„°

x x x x

These are some of the small habits we use as dietitians to make eating well feel easier, more consistent & less overwhelming.

💛 boil eggs at the start of the week
💛 meal prep some salad jars for lunches
💛 keep nourishing snacks on hand
💛 add fibre-rich extras like chia or flax
💛 batch prep simple yummy breakfast
💛 keep the freezer stocked with veggies
💛 add canned legumes to salads
💛 make nourishing snacks at home so there’s always something nourishing ready to go

None of this is about perfection.
It’s about making the healthy choice the easy choice.

👉 Save this for later if you want a few realistic habits to try this week.

You’re probably noticing more and more foods with “high protein” claims on the front of the pack... protein chips, cereal, wraps, and everything in between.

But many everyday supermarket staples already provide similar amounts of protein often at a lower cost per serve, and with higher quality ingredients.

This isn’t to say specialty products can’t be convenient or useful at times. But it’s not often that they’re the most affordable way to meet your protein needs.
Stop sleeping on this (aka carbs), here’s why


If you’re thinking about cutting carbs for weight loss, insulin resistance, PCOS, “blood sugar control” or because someone said they’re inflammatory
 read this first 👇

Cutting out carbs isn’t something we recommend. And that’s because:

1. It can trigger cravings
Eating too little carbohydrate (your brain’s preferred fuel) can send your body into “find quick sugar NOW” mode later in the day, hello 4pm biscuit raid đŸ„Č

2. You’ll miss out on fibre (and your gut will notice)
Whole grains, fruit, starchy veg (like potato) and legumes are some of the highest sources of fibre. Fibre supports gut health, microbiome diversity, cholesterol levels, inflammation and blood sugar balance (big wins for insulin resistance, PCOS, endometriosis and heart health) 🩠

3. Your concentration and energy will tank
Low carb = low fuel. If you’ve ever felt foggy, irritable or flat on a strict low carb diet
 that’s not a coincidence đŸ€Ą

4. Your relationship with food can take a hit
Telling yourself you “can’t” have carbs often makes them 10x more desirable, we call this the Forbidden Fruit Effect. Rigid restriction tends to backfire 😭

5. Sports performance will hit a wall
For athletes, gym-goers or anyone with performance goals, carbs are your petrol. Recovery, strength and session quality all rely on adequate carbohydrate intake!

Carbohydrates aren’t the problem. The way they’re structured into your overall eating pattern matters far more than cutting them out.

If you’re confused about which carbs, how much and how to include them for your specific health goal, DM us (we cant wait to chat about what support would look like for you!) đŸ€

And, save this for when the low-carb noise gets loud again

EVERYONE is talking about eating more protein, but no one’s sharing this —

how to stay on track with ready-to-eat meals when you’re busy, tired and cbf cooking đŸ„Č

You don’t need to home cook every single meal to stay on track with your nutrition goals. It’s not realistic when juggling work, family, friends, end-of-day decision fatigue + binge-watching Bridgerton/Gossip Girl repeats.

Using ready-to-eat food delivery meals as shortcuts is smart. Not lazy. And definitely not something to feel guilty about đŸ«¶

The trick is knowing which meal delivery services hit the sweet spot between being nutritionally solid and genuinely tasty

Here are our dietitian-recommended ready-to-eat meals we use/recommend with clients👇

Soulara: plant-based ready-to-eat meals that actually prioritise protein and balance (not just veg + carbs that leave you hungry an hour later)

Dineamic: honestly impressed with their big range of balanced ready meals with protein, carbs, fats and fibre. Plus low FODMAP options, a big win for IBS and anyone in phase 1 or 2 of the low FODMAP diet

Salad Servers: now delivering direct to home and hands down our top choice for high-fibre meal delivery. Amazing plant diversity to support gut health and microbiome diversity (30+ plants per week goals 👀). They also have hot meal options now (!!)

Nourish’d: one of the only 100% gluten-free meal delivery services certified by Coeliac Australia. A no-brainer for coeliac disease, with meals that are actually filling and well balanced

My Muscle Chef: popular for a reason. We love their high-protein, higher-energy meals for sports performance, higher training loads and increased fuelling needs

No matter your health goal, there’s a ready-to-eat meal delivery option that can work for you. Whether that’s IBS, PCOS, insulin resistance, ADHD, endometriosis, high cholesterol, coeliac disease or higher protein needs.

It’s about choosing the right fit, not being perfect.

Save this list of dietitian-approved meal delivery options for when you cbf cooking (future-you guaranteed to thank you đŸ«¶)

Stay with us here, this is something we see all the time with clients 👇

Banning, limiting, telling yourself you can’t have or convincing yourself you don’t like a certain food tends to back fire. It’s called the Forbidden Fruit Effect (we thank for that đŸ«¶).

These foods suddenly become 10x more desirable, and you’ll find yourself thinking about them a whole lot more than normal.

What’s worse? When the cravings build and you finally eat the food, you might just find you eat more (much more) than you intended. This one’s called the What The Hell Effect. It’s that “I’ve blown my diet I might as well keep going” voice.

All-or-nothing and rigid approaches to nutrition aren’t helpful. Sometimes the answer really is just letting yourself have your sweet little treat. And if you’re concerned about how to navigate this with a certain health condition, we are here to help you đŸ€

Send us a DM to chat about how we can best support you đŸ„°
Hot take: you don’t always need insulin resistant- or diabetes-specific recipes
 sometimes you just need the right support (i.e a TLD dietitian 😇) to learn how to adapt your favourite recipes for better blood sugar balance and energy đŸ«¶

Here’s a little behind the scenes of how we adapted this recipe Japanese Pork Meatballs with Roasted Broccoli and Miso Butter.

In a nutshell, these tweaks and additions have:
đŸŒ± increased the fibre content
âŹ‡ïž reduced the glycaemic index and glycaemic load of the recipe
đŸ«’ added monounsaturated fats and polyphenols
💜 upped the anti-inflammatory content


which all together work in different ways to reduce “blood sugar spikes” and improve your insulin sensitivity (aka how well insulin does it’s job in your body to reduce blood sugars)

If learning how to modify your usual foods/recipes is more up your ally than completely giving up your favourite foods, we’re hear to support you đŸ„°â€

We know we can’t be alone here


Some days we stand in front of the fridge grabbing slices of cheese, overwhelmed with deciding what to eat for lunch/dinner/snack time 🧀đŸ„Č

It’s frustrating when you know what you should be eating for your health goal, but you’re somehow not able to do it.

What you’re really facing though is decision fatigue i.e “the emotional and mental strain resulting from a burden of choices”. It’s a real thing, and Obama faced this too. That’s why UberEats becomes incredibly appealing come meal times.

Doesn’t that make so much sense?

But, we can borrow a page from Obama and use this number one hack: meal planning.

We know, we know
 meal planning sounds tedious and somehow overwhelming in itself. So we have 3 simple beginner-friendly tips. Swipe through the post to learn yourself.

Relatable? Share this with someone else who also struggles with the overwhelm of “what the heck should I make for dinner?” đŸ€Ł
