‼️ 🚨 ⏰ NOT ALL OLIVE OILS ARE MADE THE SAME.

Those standards, explained here.

Comment ‘oil’ below to buy or learn more about my NEW extra virgin olive oil and pine honey.

1. Harvest time
Olives picked once a year, early in the season.
→ Higher nutrients, deeper flavor.

2. Time to press
Cold-pressed within hours, not days.
Freshness is in the timing.

3. Temperature
Pressed below 27°C.
No heat. No shortcuts.
That’s what “extra virgin” actually means.

4. Acidity
True quality EVOO stays under 0.8% acidity.
Lower acidity = healthier olives + careful handling.

5. Ingredients
100% olives.
One ingredient. One variety.
Nothing blended.

🧿 Welcome to Episode 2/10 Greek Blue Zone. A series where I’ll be sharing recipes for longevity. Today we are making a Roasted Beet + Salmon Salad. 🧿

🌱👩🏻‍🍳🔪Comment “recipe” below and we will send you the full recipe or tap the link in my bio to access our website. Don’t forget to save this post for later! 🔪👩🏻‍🍳🌱

This Salmon Salad with roasted beets is the perfect healthy recipe for a fresh dinner or lunch. This recipe also fits within the Blue Zone diet which means it has healthy fats, no processed ingredients, and is loaded with healthy protein and veggies. You’re going to love this recipe with the earthy roasted beets, fresh salmon, and the crunch from pistachios and pomegranate seeds.

Make this salad if you’re looking for the perfect recipe to meal prep (simply add the arugula when you go to eat the salad) and enjoy all week long — it’s so hearty, filling and packed with flavor. Inspired by the flavours of Greece and Blue Zone Citizens who eat meals packed with at least 50% veggies, plenty of beans and limited amounts of animal protein per day. Salads can get a bad reputation for just being a bowl of veggies that may taste good at the moment but leave you hungry in 30 minutes. The key is creating a salad that has filling, hearty ingredients like organic fish, couscous, nuts + seeds, and goats cheese!

One of the factors that makes this a Blue Zone is the diet that they follow which is incredibly Mediterranean Diet focused. Rich in ingredients like olive oil, nourishing vegetables, hearty legumes and fatty, nourishing goat cheese. You probably can’t just pick up and move to a Greek Island right now so this new Blue Zone Series aims to bring you 20 easy (old and new), longevity inspired recipes that you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home.

Make this dish if you’re ever in a pinch — it takes minutes to pull together and will satisfy the whole family. Inspired by the flavours of Greece and incorporated the rustic pillowy flavor sponges from Italy! Craving Shrimp, add them, want Chicken, add them! Want more beans, add them! You get my point, this dish is versatile and FORGIVING!

Is your chicken still frozen? Problem solved.

This is one of my most viral videos from 2025, so I figured it needed a reshare (I know, it’s winter)! Don’t worry about using a BBQ, this works fine at on the stove-top in a pan or grill!

Comment ‘recipe’ below in the comments and I will send you the full recipe directly to your DMs!

Slice it thin, toss it in a quick marinade (pssst @spiceology honey granules are insane and a must try) and let it thaw while the grill heats.

Brush with herby, buttery Parm sauce—and boom, dinner’s saved.

If you are a little wacky like me and BBQ all year round, then know that I always use my @webergrills!

What’s your favorite place to visit with someone you love? ✨

Andrew was born and raised just outside of London, but somehow we never really explored the countryside together. When we lived here before, I was barely making minimum wage and Andrew was honestly supporting me financially for three years, so coming back now feels completely different. There’s something so special about finally being able to slow down, stay in a peaceful little Airbnb near where we got married, and truly enjoy these moments together. It feels full-circle in the best way.

Our next stop on the bucket list is South Korea, and I’m already counting down the days. We’re also starting to dream about where to go next after that Finland, Norway, or Denmark and we’re stuck. Which one has the best food? Which would you choose and why?

I’d love to know too: have you ever been to Korea? And if you’ve spent time in England, what’s your favorite place here? Always looking for new spots to add to our list 🤍
