Aussie Mamas is all about revolutionising the health of our families one meal at a time. If you want to provide healthy, home-cooked meals that are delicious and kid approved, then this is the blog for you! You will find posts with healthy recipes, real food cooking tips, nutrition information and encouragement to help you on your family’s journey to a trim and healthy life. Many of the recipes here are nourishing, gluten-free, grain-free and sugar-free. They are easy and delicious and will be eaten with thanksgiving to our great God!  You can even eat chocolate cake for breakfast.

My heart’s desire in creating this blog is to bring glory to God by sharing from my life and to inspire each of us to live more fully for Him. Firstly, by sharing healthy recipes and meal plans and then as time permits, opening up about what homeschooling looks like for our large family. Homeschooling now looks very different to when I first started over 15 years ago. I am now juggling a baby, toddlers, children in primary and high school, as well as young adults entering diploma and degree qualifications. This brings many challenges but so many rewards as well. In time, I hope to share what has worked for us and what has not.

For now, Aussie Mamas simply has recipes and blog posts about healthy food choices. I hope you enjoy reading these posts and cooking from the growing collection of recipes. There is also a shop which was started out of necessity. You can not see another house from my big backyard (30 acres) and the nearest neighbour is 5kms away. When I was first looking to buy healthier food options, I found I had to buy from many different websites or miss out. Now I buy in bulk and sell some of these hard to source products to other Mamas just like me who are also ‘out in the sticks’. I find it super exciting to post orders out each week to every corner of Australia and I have even had requests from Papua New Guinea and New Zealand!

On a more personal note, I’m a joyful follower of Christ who loves spending time with the family and friends I have been blessed with. I would love to get to know you more, so please leave a comment and introduce yourself. My heart is to serve you, so please let me know if there is something you would find of benefit in your pursuit of living a more nourished life. Blessings to you and yours!

One more thing before you go, while bodily nourishment is of some use now, I wish to encourage you to seek true nourishment. The Lord Jesus Christ says “what does it profit a man to gain the entire world, yet lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36) Please, will you consider His words?

To achieve the best health imaginable is of little value if in the meantime we are separated from the Creator of the heavens and the earth. There is nothing of greater importance than seeking the Lord and securing real life – eternal life – through repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. If you do not know Christ as your Savior and have not received the power of the Holy Spirit working in your life, grab a bible and read it, starting in Mark’s gospel. Check out needGod.com
