Posted on January 18, 2019 by Laura • 12 Comments

I started this creative foodie outlet in January 2014 and almost 250 posts later my own diet has transitioned massively. I’ve gone from a meat based to a pretty much vegetarian or plant based … Continue reading →

Practice makes perfect they say. If only this applied to blogging. Every post we publish would get more views and comments than those that came before it. Every time we put pen to paper the words would flow more easily. And with every draft would come less editing….If this holds true for you then give … Continue reading →

How to make dried fruit (no dehydrator needed)

Posted on August 8, 2018 by Laura • 22 Comments

Although I love to cook the electric gadgets in my kitchen are pretty thin on the ground. There’s the obvious kettle and toaster as well as my ‘can’t live without’ stick blender….but that’s about it. I don’t even own a microwave let alone a slow cooker. In our last apartment we installed a fancy Miele … Continue reading →

How to Preserve Lemons

Posted on November 8, 2017 by Laura • 28 Comments

Too often I’ve been tempted by a Middle Eastern recipe only to be disappointed after spotting preserved lemons on the list of ingredients. Not because I dislike preserved lemons but rather they’re not a pantry staple and, until recently, making them myself hadn’t crossed my mind. But my ‘preserved lemons recipe disappointment’ is now a thing of … Continue reading →

Homemade sauerkraut (& spice mixes)

I’ve talked before about the wonders of sauerkraut as a fermented food and detailed my husband’s method of making it. With just a few simple ingredients and tools it’s very easy to turn ordinary cabbage into extraordinary sauerkraut.

A bit about me

I'm Laura, the food lover behind Feast Wisely. My Feast Wisely approach to food is all about eating well but wisely - in a way that’s good for your body and your mind. For me this means a diet packed with fresh produce and wholefoods that’s low on meat and sugar and free of processed foods. It also means moderation and not deprivation because food is, after all, one of life's best pleasures!

This last 12 months I’ve been on a mission to stop buying clothes - instead making the most of what I have and re-purposing stuff from my archives. .
