EXCLUSIVE TO
BIN INN
This ‘labour of love’ book has been brought to you thanks to
two organisations who are both passionate about great quality and
healthy whole foods.
The first is Bin Inn New Zealand – and the other –is Michelle
Yandle owner of The Good life Health.
Bin Inn Foodmarkets are privately owned and operated and are a
100% Kiwi owned national brand. There are 37 Stores currently
who have been providing Wholefoods to NZ consumers long
before it became a trend and continue to do so while making it both
affordable and convenient.
The relationship between Michelle Yandle and Bin inn is a special
one. It began just a few short years ago in a small rural NZ
town when in association with the Bin Inn there, they started to
experiment on trialling a range of healthy type foods and very soon
this had built to the stocking in this store of every Superfood one
could imagine. From Spirulina to Chia Seeds it was becoming a
specialty store with so much more.
Meanwhile the ripple effect was spreading to other Bin Inns around
the country who were catching on to the health food fever and
began to stock these products on their shelves as well.
And so a beautiful relationship was formed between a holistic
nutrition coach and a national foodgroup both wanting to
make healthier foods and education more accessible to their
communities.
Bin Inn has now become a first choice destination for many of
your health food needs and both Michelle Yandle and Bin Inn are
proud to have teamed up to spread the education nationwide.
We trust you will enjoy this ‘BEYOND THE BIN’ book and
that it will become your kitchen guide for all “ all your healthy
inspirations.”

Chocolate Spotlight
A good quality dark chocolate can be a healthy addition to your
holiday treats. During the holiday season, instead of indulging in
milk chocolate or white chocolate – have a small amount of dark
chocolate instead (over 70% cocoa) which has a heap of health
benefits associated with it, without all the sugar.
HAVE A GO AT MAKING YOUR
OWN DARK CHOCOLATE!
Dark chocolate is plant-derived and contains flavonoids which
act as antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the body from aging caused
by free radicals, which can also cause damage that leads to heart
disease and other conditions. Flavonoids also help relax blood
½ cup raw cacao
pressure through the production of nitric oxide and balance certain powder
hormones in the body.
½ cup cold pressed
Cocoa also stimulates endorphin production, which gives us a
feeling of pleasure, and serotonin, which acts as an anti-depressant.
Remember: This doesn’t mean you should eat a kilo of chocolate a
day over the holidays! Most studies done used only about 80 - 90
grams of dark chocolate per day.
Always go for dark chocolate: milk or white chocolate cannot
make any health claims and are high in sugar. Skip the nougat and
caramel filled chocolates, these filings add extra sugar and refined
fats and lower the health benefits.
Go for a 70% + dark chocolate or better yet, make your own raw
dark chocolate.
coconut oil or cacao
butter
3-4 Tbsp raw honey,
maple syrup or coconut
nectar (or a couple
drops of liquid stevia)
A pinch of sea salt
Simply melt the coconut
oil on low heat over a
double boiler. Remove
from the heat and whisk in the cacao powder, then add the
sweetener of your choice and sea salt. Pour into moulds and place
in the fridge or freezer to set.
Healthy Holiday Hampers
For the person who has everything, why not put together a personalised hamper filled with everything your
loved-one needs to get their new pantry started.
An Inspirational christmas gift idea!
Healthy Chocolate hamper: Pana raw chocolate, cacao nibs,
coconut nectar, cacao powder, cacao butter, goji berries and nuts.
You could even throw in some chocolate making moulds to get
them started.
Clean living hamper: Essential oils, natural soaps, Ecostore
and other natural cleaning products, eco toothbrushes, bamboo
clothes pins etc.
Smoothie hamper: Super food smoothie mix, Nuzest shaker,

Paleo Christmas Cake hamper: Bulk nuts, dried fruit,
spices, almond flour, coconut flour and everything you need to
whip up this healthy Christmas cake.
Tea-lover’s hamper: A selection of organic herbal teas, a tea
strainer and a couple of mugs.

travel cup and some Pana dark chocolate.

Spices For Your Holiday Health
Cloves:
Cardamon:
Cinnamon:
Ginger is known for soothing an upset stomach and alleviating
nausea. If a new baby is in the plans these holidays – ginger is also
known to help women with morning sickness. Ginger is also antiinflammatory and has been used for centuries in the treatment of
arthritis and fibromyalgia. It is naturally immune system boosting
and may even aid in relieving migraines.
Cloves have both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties; it
boosts protection from heart disease, cancer prevention and slows
cartilage and bone damage caused by arthritis (combined with the
right diet). Cloves are often used as a home remedy for toothaches
because of its numbing effects. Clove oil will also fight off bacteria
and viruses. Not only that, but just 1 tablespoon of this powerful
spice contains the full amount of the recommended dietary intake
of manganese, which is important for bone formation and protein,
fat and carbohydrate metabolism
Cinnamon is a naturally sweet spice that can also regulate blood
sugars by increasing glucose uptake by the cells to turn glucose
into glycogen. It is an anti-inflammatory and can help in reducing
the pain and stiffness of muscles, joints and menstrual discomfort.
Cinnamon is also great for digestive function and has been shown
to relieve gas and nausea. This powerful spice can help reduce
triglycerides and total cholesterol and is a heart healthy addition
to any diet. Lastly, cinnamon is high and fibre and can reduce
heartburn after those Christmas indulgences.
Cardamon is great for stimulating bile flow for both liver health and
fat metabolism. It is often used as a digestive aid easing stomach
cramps, digestion and reducing mucus. Cardamon can also induce
the expulsion of gas from the stomach and intestines, which can
help with that holiday flatulence!
Ginger:
Nutmeg:
This heart-healthy holiday spice has strong antibacterial
properties; and can even kill the bacteria that cause cavities.
Studies show that it can also inhibit an enzyme in the brain that
contributes to Alzheimer’s along with the right diet. Currently,
there are studies looking at its potential as anti-depressant.
10 top tips to keep you Healthy
this Summer
1. Get your greens! Try a new vegetable or fruit once a week to
see if you like it – just because you didn’t like Brussels Sprouts as a
kid doesn’t mean you wont like them now.
2. Swapsies! There is no reason to deprive yourself over the
holidays – there are heaps of recipes for nutrient rich desserts that
are just as decadent as the real thing. Do a search online for your
favourite treat and simply add a “healthy” or “paleo” in the front and
you know it’s a better choice
3. Clean out your cupboard and give away that food that doesn’t
serve you healthily. Out of sight – out of mind!
4. Start moving! Commit to a realistic amount of time each week
to move your body and stick to it. Try out different types of exercise
until you find something that you enjoy. It’s easy to incorporate
movement into your daily routine; park further away from the
shop, use your grocery bags to do bicep curls, use stairs instead
of escalators, or even do some squats while watching the TV. The
opportunities are endless
5. Take some time to relax! The holidays can be a very stressful
time for some and stress is never good for our health. Take some
time to relax in the bath with some lavender and music you love –
you deserve it!
7. Set small but sustainable goals over the holidays. Goals
can be as simple as drinking more water or doing stretches at the
office. We sometimes think we need to do a complete overhaul
for results but research shows that small steps can lead to more
sustainable changes.
8. Practice Mindful eating: Christmas dinners are well known
for bloated tummies and afternoon naps. To prevent this simply try
slowing down at the dinner table. Take some deep breaths prior to
eating and put your fork down in between bites. Still finding it hard
to slow down? Try eating with chopsticks!
9. Practice forgiveness: The holidays are a time to relax and
enjoy time with family – so you had a piece of cake – big deal!
Crowd it out with heaps of healthy delicious foods and you’re still
winning.
10. Enjoy some Vitamin L: Taking care of your health is so
important over the holidays but you also need to enjoy time with
6. Stay hydrated! Did you know our hunger increases by 25%
family and friends and reduce stress about eating. Vitamin L – or
when we’re thirsty? Make sure to carry a water bottle with you at all Love is a powerful nutrient that only comes from food enjoyed
times and for every glass of alcohol you have over the holidays make with good company. Make sure to get a good dose these holidays!
sure you drink two glasses of water.

Recipe from ‘ Beyond the Bin’
Peppermint Creams
To make the raw chocolate.
½ cup cacao butter
2/3 cup raw cacao powder
2-3 Tbsp coconut nectar or maple syrup.
Couscous Salad
1 ¼ cups water
2 Tbsp butter or olive oil
¼ tsp salt
1 cup couscous
2 capsicums green and yellow
2 tomatoes halved
1 courgette chopped
1 carrot diced
1/3-cup natural almonds
¼ cup lemon luice
¼ tsp cinnamon
Boil Water in covered pot with
butter or oil and salt
Add couscous and stir

with fork.
Mix remaining ingredients and toss well with couscous
To make the mint filling
½ cup cashews – soaked overnight and
drained
½ cup coconut oil, melted.
3-4 Tbsp maple syrup
2 Tbsp coconut milk
1-2 tsp peppermint extract
1 small handful of fresh spinach
Sage & Onion Stuffing
Melt the cacao butter in a bowl over a saucepan of boiling water.
When completely melted, stir in the cacao powder and your
sweetener and whisk until well combined. Remove the hot bowl
from heat and set aside.
Place all the ingredients for the Mint filling in a blender or food
processor and blend well. Pour the content into a small bowl and
set aside.
Fill your mould of choice about a third way through each cavity
(the remaining chocolate will be used later). Freeze it for 15
minutes (or until it hardens) then remove from freezer.
Spoon some of the mint filling on top the hardened chocolate in
each cavity and put it back in the freezer for about 45 minutes (or
until it hardens) then remove from freezer.
Lastly, pour the remaining chocolate over the hardened mint filling
in each cavity until almost filled and return them to the freezer and
freeze overnight.
The next day, remove the mould from the freezer and set aside for
a few minutes before popping them out of the cavities and eating.
Store the leftover chocolates in the freezer so they remain nice and
icy. Take them out only before eating!

A Sensational Christmas Dessert Treat!
Place the recipe in between the prongs of a fork and place it upside
down in a glass or mug. This way it won’t get lost amongst the
cooking utensils and ingredients and will remain clean and dry.
TIPS FOR BAKING YOUR CHRISTMAS FRUIT CAKES
For a richer darker cake add one tspn of Treacle or one tspn of
Coffee Essence.
For a moister cake add 2 tablespoons of salad oil to the mix. This
will also assist in making it less crumbly.
Other tips for a moister cake are to use half tea and half water
which will also improve the flavour.
To prevent the top of the cake from crusting cover it with a brown
paper bag in the oven after it has been baking for 45-60 minutes.
