"I began cooking for my friends a few years ago, sharing my taste and passion for healthy food, underlining how you can enjoy healthy food and tastes so delicious. I spent my life for years and years not able to enjoy healthy food and I hated eating greens because it was so boring and bland. So I learnt to cook healthy nutritious foods that give me the same kind of experience as a naughty meal tastes good. It is important that we all learn how food can have a great impact on our lives, not only in the gym, the food we eat affects our hormones, our skin and gut health. I learnt that a healthy lifestyle is something that we need to commit our self and learn day by day, eating healthy should not be a pressure but something that we actually enjoy…imagine if you are addicted to healthy food! and yes that is very possible"

Good nutrition is an important part of leading a healthy lifestyle. Combined with physical activity, your diet can help you to reach and maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk of chronic diseases (like heart disease and cancer) and promote your overall health.
A healthful diet includes a variety of fruits and vegetables of many colours, whole grains and starches, good fats and lean proteins.
By taking steps to eat healthy, you'll be on your way to getting the nutrients your body needs to stay healthy, active, and strong. As with physical activity, making small changes in your diet can go a long way, and it's easier than you think!
Eating healthy isn’t always easy but committing to a healthy diet can be one of the smartest decisions you ever make. Why? Not only can eating well make you look and feel better, it can also save you money on future health costs.
Eating a healthy diet is not about strict limitations, staying unrealistically thin, or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Rather, it’s about feeling great, having more energy, improving your health and boosting your mood.
The cornerstone of a healthy diet should be to replace processed food with real food whenever possible. Eating food that is as close as possible to the way nature made it can make a huge difference to the way you think, look and feel.
Our Meal Plan
We like to surprise our customers. With a different variety of food every day every week, we deliver lunch boxes to Jimbaran,
Nusa Dua, Kuta, Denpasar, Seminyak, Canggu, etc.
Food Packaging
For those of you asking, we do NOT use Styrofoam. Our food boxes are made from cassava starch and corn-based starch. We
strive to help the environment by using biodegradable packaging and eco-friendly products and we want to keep our beaches and
oceans clean too!
Why Organic ?
Organic food is one of the most beneficial foods because it offers long-life and helps our earth.
1. Organics keep genetically modified organisms
(GMOs) out of our food.
2. Organic farming maintains healthy soil.
3. Organic farming supports pollinators.
4. Organics keep toxins out of the air, out of the
drinking water and out of the soil.
5. Organic foods are often more nutrient rich and more flavourful.
6. Keeps harmful pesticides and herbicides out of our beautiful ocean.

Made Fresh Daily
Our meals are made fresh from scratch each day and all meals are customised to each customer, taking into account any allergies you might have. When you go to a restaurant or café no one usually asks about any allergies or diet constraints you might have but we do!
We limit our orders per day to make sure we have enough time to carefully prepare and deliver your meals.
Many of our customers order one week or one month in advance, it saves their time, gives them more time to do other things instead of going to the supermarket to do the shopping and whole loads of cooking preparation.
So let’s get healthy and FIT together. Forget dieting, just change your lifestyle.
INCREDIBLE KALE
A simple KALE SALAD filled with mandarin oranges, dried cranberry, crunchy broccoli and candied pili nuts (kacang kenari)...Perfect bite! I guarantee this salad will win over any kale hater and become a staple at your house! If you are vegan, feel free to skip the cheese or you can always replace it with vegan cheese. I recommend you to try Madree Vegan Cheese OR..swap it with butter avocado to get the creamy taste. The key is your creativity. The sky's the limit :)
Ingredients:
150grams kale (best to use lacinato, tuscan, or black kale) cut into pieces about 1,5cm.
100grams broccoli.
125 grams Mandarin orange. Set aside in the fridge.
150 grams steamed purple sweet potato, cut into cube.
50 grams Feta cheese. Set aside in the fridge.
30 grams Goji berry.
30 grams dried cranberry.
50 grams roasted sunflowers seed.
Candied Nuts:
100 grams pili nuts cut into small pieces (you can substitute with pecan, slice almonds or walnut)
2 tablespoon coconut sugar
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon powder
1/2 tablespoon nutmeg powder
2 tablespoon unsalted butter (optional)
Turmeric Dressing:
8 grams fresh turmeric
4 grams fresh ginger
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (you can substitute with lime juice)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons ground mustard
2 tablespoons raw honey
1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
salt & pepper to taste
filtered water to blend 150ml
Instructions:
1. Add kale to a large bowl, add a dash of sea salt and 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil. Massage the kale to break down and soften. About 2-3 minutes. The kale will turn more of a forest green and smell fragrant, then set aside.
2. Put the broccoli in boiling water not more than 60 seconds, add 1 tsp of sea salt in the water. Remove from the pan and let it cool.
3. Add the broccoli to the large bowl, add the steamed purple sweet potato, mandarin oranges, feta cheese, dried cranberry and goji berry. It’s good to spread it when you put the toppings.
4. Make the candied nuts : Heat a medium skillet to medium high heat. Add butter, coconut sugar, cinnamon powder and nutmeg powder, mixed all and then add the nuts. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring the entire time, until all blended and coat the nuts. Remove the pan and let it cool on a plate.
In the meantime, to make the dressing, add all the ingredients to a blender, and mix all until the olive oil and vinegar no longer separate.
Top the salad with the candied nuts and serve with dressing.
Classic chicken salad with grapes and almond
This chicken salad is quick, delicious, and satisfying. Very simple ingredient that makes a healthy and tasty salad! Packed with lots of sweet and juicy red grapes, a bit of celery and apple for extra crunch and plenty of roasted almonds! Yes you can swap almonds with pecans as well, just it won’t be as crunchy as slice almonds.
So..talking about classic chicken salad, it’s typically made with mayonnaise, but i prefer to swap the mayonnaise for Greek yogurt and sour cream. I encourage you to try it, you won’t even miss the full-on mayo version. If you are vegan, coconut yoghurt mixed with vegan mayo will be a good option and of course swap the chicken with more vegetables.
