Thinking of inspiring your guests with an appearance from a celebrity blogger? Take a closer look at MN2S talent Hazel Wallace
If it’s recipes that are healthy and nutritious without scrimping on taste that you’re looking for, then Hazel Wallace is the woman you’re looking for. She’s a wellness blogger and fitness star who has serious credentials; not only did she graduate with a first class degree in medical sciences, but she’s also now working as a Junior Doctor – so you’re in safe hands.
She blogs on The Food Medic about personal training, nutrition and health issues – but unusually among wellness bloggers, backs up her assertions with scientific evidence. She says, “I want to debunk the myths that are out there surrounding dieting and instead offer solid, evidence-based advice.
“It’s not about a collection of recipes that will just help shift a few stubborn pounds before a holiday; it is about health, confidence, happiness and feeling great. We all feel our best when we are free of illness, full of energy and at a healthy weight.”
It’s not just about the recipes though – since rising to prominence Hazel has starred in campaigns for Sweaty Betty, Nike and other fitness brands, making her an ideal choice of celebrity ambassador for a lifestyle brand. If she could be a great fit for your business, get in touch with MN2S entertainment agency London to chat with one of our celebrity agents about moving forward.
For now, here are five of her best recipes to help you feel healthy, happy and full of life!
Mexican Bowl Breakfast
Sometimes healthy breakfasts can seem a little dull and uninspiring, and for people who are on the go, sometimes a smoothie just won’t cut the mustard.
Hazel’s Mexican breakfast bowl is filling, full of flavour and sure to keep you going until lunch time but it’s also really healthy; you’ll get in several servings of veg (broccoli, kale, mushrooms, tomatoes and avocados) before you’ve even left the house.
It’s a bit of a faff for a weekday when you’re rushing out of the door, but the perfect weekend brunch to indulge without pigging out too much.
Egg fried cauli rice
This recipe is perfect to reach for when you’re really craving a takeaway; it’s all the enjoyment of having a takeaway with none of the guilt. In fact, you’ll be getting in a portion of your five a day and some filling protein and it will still feel like a treat!
Quick and easy to whip up (as long as you have a food processor!) this is the ideal recipe for a hangover; you can satisfy a craving and give your body some of the good stuff while you’re at it.
Pistachio and sesame seed crusted salmon
Next time you’ve got someone to impress – be it a hot date, the in-laws or a special occasion, this is a brilliant recipe to whip out. It’s simple to prepare while giving the illusion of being fussy and tough to get right; it’s also nice and light so you won’t get that bloated feeling that often follows a fancy meal.
That said – there’s nothing stopping you from making pistachio and sesame seed crusted salmon for a weeknight dinner – it’s easy and healthy enough to make a weekly staple if you think it’s as tasty as we do!
Smoked paprika & chorizo burgers
Sometimes healthy eating doesn’t feel like healthy eating, and these smoked paprika and chorizo burgers certainly don’t taste like a healthy option. By substituting fatty beef for a leaner mince and serving without the empty carbs of a bun, Hazel has created a delicious burger recipe that will fill you up and keep you slim.
Chorizo and smoked paprika ensure it isn’t short on taste, and the inclusion of a nut butter in the ingredients list is a nice twist.
Dark chocolate coconut flapjacks
Flapjacks are a delicious treat for lunch boxes and elevenses, but they’re filled with empty calories. This version from Hazel uses coconut and lower sugar dark chocolate to create a sweet taste with less sugar and a bit more nutritional value.
Ground almonds add protein to the mix for a healthy energy boost and the inclusion of dark chocolate makes sure it still feels like a treat. These are well worth giving a go – but don’t expect them to last long!
