Summer Fruity Porridge
I absolutely love berries. Especially when they’re frozen! I’ve never been a big fan of sweets, thank goodness, so frozen berries are a good compromise, especially during hot spring and summer days. So I tend to put frozen berries on top of as many dishes as I can, porridge included I made this porridge a while ago and thought I might share it with you 🙂 Let me know what you think in the comments below! Ingredients 3/4 cup of rolled oats // 300 ml of almond milk // 1.5 tsp of honey or maple syrup // 1 tsp of chia seeds // 1/3 cup of peach slices //…
Veggie Summer Springrolls
I can’t believe we’re already halfway through Ramadan, woohoo! Anyway, I am still at home meaning still on full mode turtle. Mornings starting at 3pm, like aaaahhh! So good to be back home. I don’t even wanna go back to London ever again. Actually, I do a little bit. See, I’ve bought this book with the 100 best cafés in London. I spent like 4 years there and just realized there are plenty of amazing cafés I haven’t been to yet. Now the thing is Ramadan ends on the 5th of july, meaning it’s gonna be a real marathon to try and check out all these amazing places. No worries,…
Sugar-free, Vegan Blueberries and Apple Pie
I once said I don’t have a sweet tooth. Which is true. But I also love to experiment in the kitchen, and see what I can come up with. I used some blueberries the other day to make a sorbet, and I was left with half of the bag. I then saw a picture of this blueberries pie somewhere on the internet, and I was inspired to do prepare a pie 🙂 So there you go, gonna share the goodness with you!  Ingredients  For the crust: 1 cup rice flour // 2/3 cups self-raising flour // 4 tbsp of coconut oil // 1/4-1/2 cup of water, to bind the dough  For…
Healthy Banana Bread
Banana bread is definitely one of my favorite desserts. I  can eat a whole load by myself, and I’m not even lying. Yes, that’s full of sugar but…it’s quite the point, right ? Anyway, I had some bananas and I love to experiment, so I attempted to recreate the banana bread but with a healthy twist. It may taste a bit different than the usual, sugar and butter loaded banana free, but it is equally as good. I had different seeds at home and some raisins so I just threw everything in, to get an overload of vitamins and yumminess 🙂 Anyways, here is the recipe for y’all! Healthy Banana…
Chickpea, Leek and Onion Fry Up with Hummus
My mom is a wonderful cook, and to this day I still believe no one compared to her. When I was a kid, she was never satisfied nor did she enjoy the food she cooked. I never really understood until I entered into the cooking and baking world myself. Sometimes I feel like, when you make something yourself, no matter how delicious it is, it is never the same as eating something someone else made for you. This week I am eating vegetarian food only, which is really good as not only I love veggies but I also get to play with different kinds of food to create balanced recipes.…
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 everything cause I love when frozen blueberries become soft and juicy 💜. I usually have whey protein powder, but I found soya protein at Whole Foods Market yesterday so I wanted to try it and – gotta say – it taste muuuuch more better than whey protein powder. But that’s…
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 🙂 Ingredients – One can (400g) of chopped tomatoes – 2 medium carrots – 300g of french beans – 200g of mince (I used soy mince, but meat mince is also fine) – 1.5 cups of wholewheat fusili pasta (or any other kind, gluten-free pasta can also be used)  …
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 rich in iron and proteins, and it is a vegan friendly option – you can use it in smoothies, yoghurts etc 🙂 The powder is very green though. Like very very green, so take extra care when handling it. You don’t want your whole kitchen to turn green. You really don’t. Anyway, enough talk,…
