Healthy Carrot Cake
Ok. Maybe it’s just the effect of intense revisions and deadlines. But my energy has been on a roller coaster lately. Blame having meals at odd hours and weird sleeping patterns. Anyway, decided to bake a delicous carrot cake full of nutrients to help me cope with that. Because come on let’s admit it, all foods are waaaay sexier when…
Protein and Blueberry Oats
Who else loves oats ? So versatile, easy and fast to prepare. And most of all, very nutritious 🙂 I am a HUGE bread lover and have that usually for breakfast, usually with eggs or yogurt, but today I wanted to change and went with oats. I directly toppes the mix with blueberries and added boiling water. Then I mivrowaved…
Basic Crepes (8 medium crepes)
Tried this mix a few months ago and it ended up quite nice, so thought I’d share it with you 🙂 Concerning the filling, I’m all about the Nutella. You got me! Ingredients: 2.5 cups of flour 3 cups of milk of choice 2 medium eggs 1 tbsp of sugar or 0.5 tbsp of sweetener 5ml of vanilla extract (or…
French Beans, Tomatoes, Soy Mince & Carrots Pasta Dish
Finally found the time to sit down and write this 🙂 (perks of studying engineering I guess!). I found soya mince at my local Tesco the other day and decided to give it a try: no regrets! Was absolutely delicious and although it tastes obviously different that beef or lamb, it is perfect as an alternative to meat based bolognese…
Wholemeal Flour Pancakes (makes 12)
Pancakes are so versatile. You can eat them with Nutella. Or salty food. Or sweet food. Or on their own, while baking them. Or with maple syrup. And did I mention Nutella ? Here’s my take on them. I didn’t have regular flour at home, so I used the wholemeal version. Accidentally healthy pancakes. Super cool. Ingredients: 1 cup wholemeal…
Cheesy & Eggy Sandwhich
After a hectic week, finally got to sit down to write this. I really love those kind of “recipes” you quickly make and that end up tasting absolutely de-li-cious. Made this easy yet tasty sandwhich the other day as I needed a fast lunch and couldn’t be bothered to cook anything else. It’s definitely the kind of recipe I’d teach…
Coconut and Vanilla Light Cake
I called this cake light because, even though there is a little bit of sugar (aka granulated fructose)Â and some oil, the quantities are small enough to enjoy it as a guilt-free treat. Also, I believe in balance. The recipe serves 12 and so, I’d take one or two slices depending on how I feel :). This is also a macro…
Spirulina Green Superbowl
Ok. So. Had a little trouble finding the perfect name for this dish. All green and natural, I mean come on! And tasty. Gluten free, vegan, vegetarian. All this. It’s the bomb 🙂 I added spirulina at the very end, opening my cupboard and thinking ‘I do need more protein in there’. For you who don’t know, spirulina is very…
Potato & Kidney Beans Burgers
 As a fourth year student, I get a lot of free time. Meaning I can spend more time preparing my dishes, which is really awesome 🙂 I was seeing all over the internet all these veggie and vegan burgers and thought ‘wow, I should do the same !’. I absolutely love vegetarian burgers, they’re so versatile. Here’s a recipe I…
A Little Talk about Health and Fitness in General
Hey! So, as you know, my name is Rayane, and I’m currently a final year student in that beautiful city which is London. I started my “health and fitness” over a year ago. Now, it’s not to mean that I was particularly unhealthy before, I always tried to be active and eat diverse food within reason. I used to be…
