![]() They use better ingredients so I don't feel so bad about it. It's a rustic, Italian place in an old jail building and we usually get a nice thin-crust pizza with gorgonzola cheese and spicy sausage. It's called Terroni, and I like the one on Adelaide. Those would be my ideal snacks.įor dinner, it's a restaurant my boyfriend and I have been going to forever. ![]() I'm going to hopefully have to create my own ramen, because I'm that addicted to it.įor snacks and stuff in between, I honestly like eating peanut butter. I've been really into ramen lately, and my favourite place is on College West called Ryoji. I eat them all the time with peanut butter and banana on top, maple syrup because obviously I'm Canadian. Actually, I have another one that's my fluffy brown rice pancakes and they're really good. I'm gonna be biased: I absolutely love my coconut flour pancakes because they taste like traditional, white, fluffy pancakes but they're healthy. We'll start of with sweets, because that's probably what I would do on my ideal day. I love sweet breakfast, savoury breakfast-it doesn't matter. Spoon: You're having breakfast, lunch, and dinner on your dream food day. NG: Yup! Your body knows what it wants, so just listen to it. Spoon: That's awesome! Especially when body image is such a huge thing with young girls, I think the "listen to your body" mentality is important. I'm really trying to promote a balanced, healthy relationship with your food. I'm sure the pork inside isn't organic, but sometimes you just have to be relaxed about it. I do think people need to know more about what they're eating and find out, "Where did it come from? What are the ingredients?" If you're going to eat meat, try to eat local meat, free-range, organic. That doesn't fit with everyone's budget, and sometimes I'm craving ramen, I'm gonna go eat ramen. If you're vegan, great-spread the message by showing people how delicious the food is, not by criticizing them for what they're eating. I hate that food has become like, this new religion. Once you say you're eating a certain way, someone could eat McDonald's every day and say, "Oh! You ate that cookie, it has butter in it." They're like the food police. ![]() It changes every week, every day, every hour. One week I might eat vegan, another week I might have some fish. ![]() We were on-the-go all the time, I was doing most of the cooking, and it was sometimes with limited ingredients since we were backpacking and didn't want to carry a whole kitchen with us. We were backpacking and working for- it ended up being almost two years. I was watching a lot of Youtube and I had a lot of time to get creative in the kitchen. It kind of turned into, "Now I'm absorbing all of this information about health and fitness, what do I do with it all?" I can only bug my friends and family so much, so I needed an outlet for that.ĭuring that time, I was also planning a year-long trip with my boyfriend out to Australia. I remember coming home and telling my boyfriend, "I think I found my passion! I want to be a holistic nutritionist." It was this whole idea. When I was taking nutrition courses at George Brown College, that really sparked my interest for it. Growing up, I always liked eating healthy-not so much that I was interested in it, I just thought, "I like brown bread over white bread, and I like this peanut butter over this sugary peanut butter." It wasn't too much of a thought process of, "Oh, I want to be a nutritionist." That's what really sparked my love for food and nutrition. NG: I went to school for marketing, oddly enough, and I took a couple nutrition classes. When did you get the inspiration to share HealthNut Nutrition with the world? Spoon: I want to start off by asking how this all started for you. Nikole sat down to chat about how she got her start, her favourite recipes, and the best places to grab a bite. I was lucky enough to catch up with Nikole at Buffer Festiva l, an annual showcase of Youtube video premieres where she was a featured creator. Sitting across from a popular food vlogger might sound intimidating, but while HealthNut Nutrition's Nikole Goncalves is known for her super-healthy recipes, she has a surprisingly relaxed attitude when it comes to food.
