Mila’s Meals started as an idea to create a gluten-free, dairy-free and sugar-free cookbook to help other tired, stressed-out new moms. With 18 great recipes Catherine had created for her daughter.
3.5 years later… it ended up as this….
One-on-one food coaching and wellness consultations, personalised health strategies.
Our nutrition book, meal plans, shopping guides, articles & masterclasses.
Book Catherine as a speaker for your school / PTA events, health & wellness events, retreats, workshops & summits.
It is about food intolerances, how to cater to them and how to raise a child with them.
Mila’s Meals is gluten-free, sugar-free, and dairy-free.
(It is also organic, non-GMO and free from preservatives, artificial colourants, artificial flavourants and any other chemicals and toxins the food industry is passing off as food.)
It is about choosing to prepare your family’s food from fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
It is about choosing to use food as medicine, not only as fuel.
It is about whole-person health and choosing to nourish your child’s growing body, not just to fill their tummy.
Having used food & lifestyle as medicine to reverse my endometriosis, leaky gut & eczema and having to raise a child with food intolerances to dairy & gluten, I set to work educating myself (through The Institute for Integrative Nutrition) and getting creative in the kitchen.
I am now on a mission to empower moms to make informed decisions with regards to what they feed their children and themselves, so that they can nourish bodies, not just fill tummies!
I’m all about creating REAL health, using REAL nourishment & nutrients.
Mila’s Meals is here to provide REAL information and solutions in a way REAL moms with REAL demands on their time, energy and money can REALLY use.
I am a free-from kid! That means I am “free-from”/don’t eat gluten, dairy and sugar.
Why?
Because gluten makes the poopies get stuck, dairy makes my nose snotty and my ears hurt, and sugar – well sugar makes me feel sugary.
(Note from Mama: After Mila ate a sugary sweet she held her hand on her chest and said “Mama, I feel sugary!”)
I pretend to be a very fussy eater because it sends my mama into the kitchen to make really yummy food that none of the other kids at school get!
