    The Best Healthy Eating Sites of 2016

    Globalisation has brought the concept of unhealthy food almost everywhere. This kind of food has been proven unhealthy due to the preservatives, amongst other things. Nowadays most people are aware of this fact, but the much cheaper prices make it a preferable diet choice. But is it not worth investing a little in our health? Fortunately, there is a growing awareness on the importance of clean eating and healthy food.

    If you are looking for some healthy and delicious recipes or just healthy tips to follow, well, at GreenMatch we have made a list of the best blogs and websites on healthy eating. You should visit the rewarded sites at least once in your life.

    We have asked them:
    “Clean food certainly benefits our bodies, and it can also be beneficial to our environment.
    Which of your daily eating habits are the most beneficial for the environment?”

    (We will publish the respective answers as they reply to us after being awarded)

    Of course, all the sites rewarded with a Go Green Award: Food Edition avoid the junk, so we have decided to divide the winners into three different categories, according to their features.

    Top Healthy Eating Sites

    The featured blogs are more than welcome to use the code below to place the badge on their website. 

    Here you go, dinner is served.

    Best Recipes Sites

    Eatori

    VISIT THE WEBSITE

    Tori Harschka, born in Sydney, was a big fan of white noodles as a child. But that has changed. Now she has a passion for healthy food. On her blog she mentions that she is obsessed with cooking, eating, travel and restaurants. And she shares her passions with her readers.

    “Food waste is a significant problem – and one that’s easy to tackle. In our house we make an effort to use all of what we purchase, from blending the last bits of herbs and green vegetables into pestos or green dressings for roast vegetable salads for Meatless Mondays, using the remaining bones of roasts for stocks in my trusty pressure cooker, or having one night a week dedicated to ‘fridge foraged’ braises and soups, which use up the last of the week’s produce. Nearly everything has a second life; parmesan rinds are a beautiful boost for ragus, the marinating oil for anchovies is a great base for mayonnaise for roast beef and yesterday’s porridge can be easily repurposed into pancake batter or smoothies. We make a conscious effort to eat less meat, but better quality and often call on pulses as a thrifty and sustaining source of protein.”

    “Eating whole fresh foods often means less packaging to throw away. Buying quality cuts of meat from a local butcher, taking reusable bags to the local farmers market to stock up on fruit, vegetables and cheese, and buying tea in biodegradable teabags – all help. If you were to have microwave meals every day or order take-out – just imagine how many boxes, foil dishes and plastic packaging you would have to throw out each week! Cooking from scratch and in bulk is so much better for your health, bank balance and the environment.“
