Hello, I’m Lara!

I'm a former professional ballerina, sports nutritionist and recipe creator, with a soft spot for a really good bake (and a firm belief that there's always room for chocolate).

FeedingLara started as a creative outlet during my years as a ballet dancer. When gut issues meant I had to rethink some of the ingredients I was baking with, I started experimenting in the kitchen and finding new ways to make the things I loved. What began as a way to make food work for me quickly became a creative outlet of its own.

These days, I'm still creating recipes, but I'm also diving deeper into the science of sports nutrition and how food can support the way we feel, fuel and perform.

Around here, you'll find gluten-free bakes, recipes made with different dietary needs in mind, nourishing meals and the occasional nutrition deep dive. I love the science behind what we eat, but I also think food should be delicious, enjoyable and something you genuinely look forward to.

Whether you're here for a new favourite recipe, something that works for your needs or a little nutrition inspiration, I'm so glad you're here.

Make yourself at home!
