KATE, COOKING AND CARAFES

Kate developed a love of food (and wine!) over her years of holidaying in Italy. She created Cooking and Carafes to share her culinary creations that are simple to make, authentic and have an Italian twist (most of the time). Kate believes in eating a healthy, balanced diet and always turns to inspiration from the Mediterranean for recipe ideas.

WHAT’S YOUR GO-TO HEALTHY MEAL?

This is my favourite dish of the moment, I love clean and simple dishes especially when they involve fish so here’s my latest recipe: Sea bass with caper and chive butter served with roasted veg and new potatoes.

WHAT’S THE BEST HEALTH TIP YOU’VE EVER RECEIVED?

This is a tough one! I’m a huge believer in a balanced diet and exercise though, I hate fad diets so would much rather eat healthy and get my body moving – I love food too much to do it any other way.

WHAT’S YOUR PREFERRED FORM OF EXERCISE?

Swimming – it helps tone, doesn’t put any pressure on your joints and I find it really relaxing. I finish my swim feeling more invigorated and energised than before I went in. Running on the other hand really gets my heart pumping and I love challenging myself to beat a time, a distance or a pace!

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD TO INDULGE IN?

It will come as no surprise that as a food blogger I like to indulge! Macaroni cheese with caulfilower and pancetta is one of my favourite dishes, tastes great and is a perfect comfort food so this is probably my cheesy weakness!

IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE HABIT OF YOURS TO BE HEALTHIER, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

To be more disciplined in my exercise, I’ve got a lot better at exercising regularly but I would like to make it more habitual than it is.

Erin Wathen

As a Holistic Health Coach, it is Erin’s big hairy audacious goal is to change the dialogue around how we look at weight loss. It is not a matter of being it Ketosis or Food Swaps but the feelings we have that we are avoiding by overeating. Why are so many of us not tackling the real issues we have? It is easier and safer to obsess over the latest diet fad. Whether it be with our job, or our Mom, boyfriend, politics… until we address how we manage our feelings in the world, we are not going to.
