Healthy Lunchbox Love Cookbook Testimonials

I received my recipe book in the post today ( thanks for your super quick efficiency!) and I've just been flicking through it and am really excited to try so many things! I love how your recipes are 'busy mum' friendly, practical and nutritious and look user friendly for the inexperienced cook amongst us! 🙂

Thank you so much for making a cookbook for families with food that is not only healthy and yummy but affordable recipes. We are making our way through most of the recipes and the kids are loving them! Its nice to have gluten, nut and dairy free options if that is what you are after.

Thanks Wick for the fantastic Banana Oat Cookies recipe in your new book. Luckily I made a double batch as half of them have already disappeared! These delicious healthy cookies will definitely be making appearances in our kids lunchboxes from now on. xx

Hi Wick, just some feedback on your book. I've made the green pea and edamame bean patties and they were awesome with the roasted cauliflower. Also the rice pudding recipe is great, really simple and yummy. I cut the sugar content even further and my kids loved it topped with fresh juicy pears.

I'm looking forward to trying more things. Thanks so much for the inspiration, keep up the good work!

Thank you for your awesome book, Healthy Lunchbox Love. I have cooked just about every recipe and keep coming back to make repeats. After trying so many different recipes in the hunt to give my kids healthier alternatives, I have finally managed to do this thanks to your awesome recipes. My kids are fussy and they haven’t complained once, which is just huge in our household. Thank you for providing me with a 'wicked' toolbox to pull out some delicious baking for our family.

Thank you so much for your new cookbook. All four of my kids have been very interested, whether it be looking through and asking for things to be made (and consumed) or giving a recipe ago themselves. It’s been a great talking point in helping them understand the importance of making healthier food choices.

21 Day Marvelous Lunchbox Makeover Testimonials

I just wanted to say thanks for the book.  I ABSOLUTELY love it.  Since becoming a mum I find that I have a whole new interest in food, and am always searching for easy, fun recipes that just have most of your pantry items in it – there seem to be so many whacky ones out there these days that contain bizarre or expensive ingredients.  I’m just after good wholesome nutrition.  My toddler loves being in the kitchen making things with me so I am really excited as your book is everything I have been looking for – so many delicious recipes that the whole family can enjoy!

Just want to tell you I am loving the lunchbox makeover. I too am passionate about healthy food for kids, but can always slip back every now and then. This was the inspiration I needed. I also love how your recipes are healthy but not dauntingly so... making it a great stepping stone for people who want to pack healthy lunches but don’t know where to start. Your ideas and recipes show us just how easy it is pack healthy food. Well done you.

I’m loving the ideas for the 21 Day lunch box make over ! I thought I was doing pretty well with yummy healthy lunches but was getting a bit short of ideas.....so thank you sooo much, my kids are loving their new improved lunches and today they even said they don’t want to do a lunch order this week (for sausage rolls etc ) as they love their lunches and they are looking forward to the bacon /egg pies I’m making today for them! Winning! Thank you wick for the inspiration!

I bought your book and was not disappointed I have not tried all the recipes yet but definitely a fav in our house are the bliss balls. So easy to make which is a bonus in a busy household.

Kitchen Club Testimonials

One of the biggest challenges before I did this Kitchen Club was being motivated to try new recipes and plan my meals with variety. I cooked what they would eat! The biggest breakthrough was that I enjoyed making the dishes and using ingredients that I didn't generally use. Thank you Wick it was a good programme and I will use the recipes again.

I loved the Kitchen Club. Having so many substitute options made it a breeze. It is a great way of adding variety and getting the family interested in meals and the preparation.

Jo Woodward

Jo Woodward

I was relieved to find it was so simple, just a few easy recipes to take the burden of meal planning for the week. It was straightforward and the recipes were not overwhelming. I think the 4 meals and 1 baking was perfect, not too much to deal with and we didn't have to follow it every night. Thanks Wick.

Lisa Brookes

Once again, I've really loved being part of the Kitchen Club. It's fabulous having a whole range of delicious new recipes and so wonderful having the meal planning all done for you for a few weeks! I'm hoping to continue to be better at planning the week's meals in advance in order to reduce that stress around deciding what to make.

I was in a real rut with cooking meals & I was bored. Between being a busy working mum and juggling kids activities, our meals weren't terribly nutritious and I dreaded planning meals. The kitchen club was just so easy. I have a new found appreciation for some ingredients that I would never have tried otherwise. The best part though was my family's enthusiasm for the meals. Thanks Wick for helping me to enjoy cooking again.

Excellent way of introducing new healthy meals into your cooking. Having a Facebook community means you have support at hand just when you need it. Wick is great in explaining things in detail and responding things quickly. This is a very positive approach to healthy cooking.

We loved getting your meal plans 'delivered on-line' once a week. One of the best features is the way that you have allowed them to be spiced up for different palates and the increase in vegetables with out even really noticing! Thanks again Wick.

Wick, I have so loved being part of this Kitchen Club and really looked forward to Thursday afternoons for our new week of recipes and tips. My family have also loved the variety it has brought to us and miraculously our little boy has tried out some of the recipes and at least, is trying new foods, although often only a taste but that’s progress! Thank you so much!

At 65 yrs of age and suddenly having to raise my 4yr old granddaughter, I needed inspiration for healthy meals that didn't take forever to prepare. The Kitchen Club was perfect... recipes/shopping lists already prepared and trying different healthy things that do actually taste great. Thank you!

I was sick of being stressed about dinner and tired of my same rotated meals! The Kitchen Club was easy to follow and I loved the shopping list and achievable meals, all while introducing my family to healthier dinners! I’m now more confident about healthy options and how to plan a weeks menu without so much stress. Thanks Wick!

We loved the latest Kitchen Club.  It made planning the week, the shopping and the cooking so easy. The kids and hubby were hesitant, but they enjoyed all the meals and that we were challenged to try something new which has opened up so many options. Wick has been so helpful in giving us good tips and help to make life easier. Thanks so much Wick.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Wicked Wellbeing Kitchen Club - the kids were able to try and enjoy new flavours & ingredients; and the recipes were easy to follow and adaptable if necessary. Menu day was very exciting as it made for better forward planning; which in our household is vital. Big thanks to Wick - I'm looking forward to signing up for the next Kitchen Club!

We have enjoyed the Kitchen Club. From the easy to read shopping list, pictures and recipes. Options to spice up for adults or keep simple for young children. Our German Aupair finds it achievable to read and cook with and loves the new found flavours and ideas. Common sense approach, fast and yummy, realistic and honest. Thank you Wick.

This was the perfect solution we needed in our busy household. Having 3 active young children, and an au pair, we needed a plan that could be followed, so my husband and I were reassured our kids were having a healthy meal each night. The Kitchen Club took all the guess work out of it and it gave our au pair a plan to follow, which she enjoyed the learning as well. The stress reducing planning was an instant success for all of us. Thank you Wick, we’re very much looking forward to the next menu for our new au pair."

I was struggling with meal planning and nutritious meals for my family that we all enjoyed. The shopping list and recipes provided took the hard work out of cooking and allowed me to focus on the important things – family. We all enjoyed sitting down to a family meal, instead of cooking two meals. This has been a great experience where we have been exposed to new ingredients and recipes to help make meal times more enjoyable.

Stacey Donn

I was unsure before starting whether I would see it through. But I was in a rut and needed to try new ingredients and new recipes. I really enjoyed the grocery list and all the encouragement, taking me outside my comfort zone and we now have some new favourite recipes! Thanks very much Wick, I'm looking forward to the next session.

I was doing My Food Bag but found the meals were getting increasingly unhealthy. The Kitchen Club came along at the perfect time – healthy, nutritious meals that were all planned out, taking the stress out of preparing dinner for the family. The meals were yummy, easy to prepare and family friendly. We were exposed to different ways of cooking, different ingredients and healthy food. I would recommend to anyone and can’t wait for the next round to start.

Having weekly menus planned with corresponding shopping lists has been a godsend at this crazy time of year. I'm a passionate foodie & cook but have newfound inspiration in the kitchen with your fresh ideas. My husband and I have a few absolute favourites and the kids are on the wagon with a lot of the options too, which is great – it’s been great challenging their palates yet keeping things healthy. Keep up the good work Wick x

Because I work from home, dinners were always last minute, cooking became a chore and I was making the same boring meals - until I did the Kitchen Club. Downloadable weekly shopping lists and recipes made it so easy and I loved being so organised. The variety of recipes was awesome but what surprised me most was how affordable and nutritious the meals were. The Kitchen Club – a must have tool in any mothers support system!

With a partner who is a chef, it sure does become difficult to delight him - but delight him I have! The KC has given me the confidence to try nutritionally balanced meals with easy to follow recipes that have been winners with the whole family. Wick is a hive of knowledge and it's great to know that she has already "taste tested" them with her children.

Wick’s healthy food workshop is a great thing to bring into any corporate environment.

Wick recently facilitated three separate lunchtime events for our valued clients. Wick came fully prepared with everything needed to run the session and made organisation a breeze. We chose these sessions as work place illness does increase coming in to Autumn and we wanted to provide a fun, interactive, networking event for our clients. The dishes made were delicious (yet nutritious) and many of our clients have since made these at home for their families/friends! The feedback from our clients was excellent with comments such as ‘Wick taught us sneaky ways to add more vegetables to our families meals’ and ‘We all know that nutrition is important, however we are all too busy to eat healthy. Wick showed us quick ideas in a no fuss manner’.

We recently ran a series of Urban Sustainable Living workshops at Parnell Trust. They were incredibly popular with our customers and we received some fantastic feedback. Parnell Trust has a strong belief in supporting healthy eating and healthy living programmes and we asked Wick Nixon to be a part of these workshops because of her proven track record and great reputation. Wick ran a ‘Creating Healthy Lunchboxes’ workshop at the Parnell Community Centre which was very well attended by both our customers and by our Early Childhood Centre catering staff. We are already receiving questions from customers about when Wick will be back at the community centre to run another workshop and we hope to have her back again soon.

We recently enjoyed an informative and fun evening with Wick from Wicked Wellbeing.  Wick presented to a group of our Au Pairs and families. Wick’s passion for healthy food was evident and she enlightened us about so called ‘healthy foods’, gave us yummy lunch box ideas and educated us on how to read food labels.  Most of those who attended like Wick herself are busy mothers juggling the demands of work and home with small children in tow. Her cooking demonstration showed us that even the busiest of us with a little thought and preparation can prepare a healthy, well balanced, delicious meal literally within minutes.

I contacted Wick about running some nutrition and cooking workshops for our team as part of a new Wellbeing Programme we have introduced. The team loved it much more than I expected! Wick makes healthy food fun, quick and easy and this is exactly what I wanted them to learn. The sessions were down to earth and so accessible for those with no knowledge of healthy cooking, with just the right combination of information and interaction. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wick for this type of programme.

I approached Wick from Wicked Wellbeing to see if she wanted to present to a team of staff within the hospital who were engaged in a Health and Wellbeing weight loss program.
One thing the team liked about Wick is she is 'real’, a genuine person, with bills to pay, a job and a family to feed, very much like everyone sitting in the audience. Her tips and tricks resonated with the audience and her approach was friendly and suggestions uncomplicated.
I would recommend Wick to any business who has a health and wellbeing focus for their staff.

We asked Wick into the office to help us promote our ‘Meat Free May’ initiative. She responded really well to our vegetarian brief, and was able to educate our team in a fun and entertaining way.
Wick is great to deal with and made the whole process really easy and enjoyable.
She was able to quickly establish a real rapport with the audience and was great to interact with during her demonstration; answering questions and sharing some excellent top tips!
We would be happy to welcome Wick back anytime, and recommend her to other organisations for staff events.

The Christmas evening with Wick was not only informational, it was fun with lots of laughs and divine food. The recipes shared were super easy to prepare, nutritional and a hit with people I shared one with 2 days after the event. Highly recommend attending if you are looking for some inspiration outside of the box.

What an amazing evening. My favourite part was when Wick got into kitchen mode and made some delicious dishes that were perfect for the holiday season. I listened to every word and watched as she threw together these 4 incredible dishes. My favourite was the Quinoa Pomegranate Salad which I have made since and just love it. Thanks Wick, I walked away with an amazing goodie bag to explore endless products.

Thanks Wick for a fun evening, I found your step by step explanations were very informative and I loved the fact that we all got a decent taste of all the food. All your recipes were really delicious and I used your Pomegranate and Quinoa Salad on Christmas Day which was a real hit!

My business partner and I invited Wick to speak at our Annual Charity Event - Inspire U this year (2015). Wick was so highly professional. Her inspirational presentation was moving, funny, real and the cooking demo was a real treat. Wick has an ability to deliver something unique that every woman in the room can relate to!

We had requests for a food expert to talk at our Inspire U event and we hit the jackpot with Wick. Wick was not only professional, knowledgable and inspiring but she won the hearts of the audience and changed their approach to food with a smile and a 40 minute presentation. I would highly recommend Wick as an event and workshop presenter. She was an asset to our event and is still raved about months later! Please come back next year. Thank you Wick.

Wick recently delivered her 'Healthier lunchboxes for your children' session to some of our parents and spouses. She is clearly passionate about the topic and this resonates through. The session was easy to understand and we all came away with some concrete actions to improve what we feed our children.

A big thanks to Wick for being our guest speaker at our childcare centre. We are constantly being asked for advice and ideas for healthy food options for children. After meeting Wick at various networking events, we thought she was the go to lady we needed. Wick’s presentation was both informative and practical and her demonstration on how to make hummus was certainly a hit and extremely tasty. Thank you!

Wick did a Healthy Food for Toddlers workshop and cooking demonstation, which was so well received by the parents that attended our Toddler Parenting Morning. She exudes a passion for food and people and her enthusiasm is contagious.
