Easy Sweet & Salty Coconut Chips

Uncategorised

30 Jun

I just finished a wicked awesome weekend with three of my gal pals. We stayed in a hotel, invited a psychic over to give us readings, sipped on champagne, and stayed up way too late. But, it was so much fun and so needed.

Now, we were cooped up in one of our hotel rooms as the second room was being used for our reading. We were certainly occupied with “catching up” but I knew that we need some treats to snack on while we waiting.

I made some of my favourite Organic Rosemary Lemon Popcorn and I had to make my Easy Sweet & Salty Coconut Chips.

Am I right in saying that the store bought chips are super expensive for just a handful of chips? Plus, coconut chips are high in good healthy fats and fibre.

Here’s the recipe…

Ingredients:

3 cups of organic desiccated coconut flakes
1/3 cup of melted coconut oil
1/2 tsp of sea salt
1 tbsp of coconut sugar (optional)

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
  • Mix all ingredients together and spread out evenly on a large parchment lined baking tray.
  • Bake in oven for 8-12 minutes, stirring every 3-4 minutes ensuring that the coconut does not burn.
  • Let coconut chips cool and store in jars.

These coconut chips are an awesome snack. But, they also make a great addition to trail mix, topping onto of yoghurt, smoothie bowls or oatmeal.

One of the biggest changes I’ve made recently? Swa One of the biggest changes I’ve made recently?
Swapping some of my long, steady-state cardio sessions for Norwegian 4x4 intervals.

The workout is simple:
➡️ 4 minutes hard effort
➡️ 3 minutes recovery
➡️ Repeat 4 times

Why I love it:
✔️ Improves VO₂ max (one of the strongest predictors of longevity and cardiovascular health)
✔️ Improves aerobic fitness and endurance
✔️ Time efficient — done in about 40 minutes
✔️ Helps support heart health and healthy aging
✔️ Leaves more time for strength training and recovery

A 2024 study found that the Norwegian 4x4 protocol significantly improved VO₂ max compared to moderate-intensity training.

At 47, I’m less interested in burning calories & more interested in building a stronger body, better fitness & long-term health.

Have you tried Norwegian 4x4s?

This week’s midlife glow-up favourites ✨ And hone This week’s midlife glow-up favourites ✨

And honestly? Most of them start with getting enough protein.

One of the biggest game changers for my energy, body composition, cravings, and strength has been prioritizing a solid protein hit first thing in the morning — and making sure my snacks support my goals too.

And the 5th favourite? A good exfoliator 👏

Because glowing skin in midlife is both internal and external.

Protein + skincare + consistency = the real glow-up.

Comment “glow” if you want my fav exfoliators 💛

Fine hair + thinning hair + perimenopause means my Fine hair + thinning hair + perimenopause means my hair routine has had to evolve a bit.

These days my focus is less about styling tricks and more about supporting scalp health and giving my hair the best chance to look full, healthy, and hydrated.

A few things that have made the biggest difference in my routine:

• A cleansing or detox shampoo to remove buildup and reset the scalp. When you have fine hair, even a little buildup can make everything fall flat.

• A hair thickening product to create the illusion of fuller hair and give some lift at the roots.

• A hydrating serum for the ends to keep hair soft and shiny without weighing it down.

• A really good dry shampoo that refreshes hair between washes without leaving that chalky residue or drying everything out.

For fine or thinning hair (especially during perimenopause), I’ve learned that lighter products and a healthy scalp make all the difference.
