Mouthful of heavenliness

Food,4 July 2016

To be honest, I’ve never been too interested or into tastes and sophisticated foods. I prefer to eat with a spoon and I love to eat fast so I can go on with my day. Nevertheless I’ve come to appriciate the situation, time, harmony and preparation around a nice meal. I love a beautifully decorated table and the sound of cutlery against the china.

I want my food to be simple and the ingredients fresh and tasty. I want to be able to taste every ingredient in every mouthful. Not being able to tell exactly what I’m eating feels weird to me. That’s why I don’t like burgers, sauces and sandwitches with “hidden” ingredients, unless I make them myself.

This dessert is so simple and easy. It’s perfect as a sweet end to a summer meal and tastes divine. The basil brings it a surprising twist that makes it interesting.

All you need is fresh strawberries, whipped cream with a touch of sugar/vanilla sugar and fresh basil. Blend everything togeather and enjoy!

Smoothie love

Food,Health,21 February 2016

I swear by smoothies since they are the perfect way for me to cross off a few portions of fruits and veggies from my daily diet. It is also the best fast food and can be enjoyed on the go. I usually go for water based smoothies with lemon and greens, but this one is sweet and heavenly. Perfect for breakfast and also as an evening snack.

Since Gabriel suffers from stomach pain I’ve tried to watch my diet extra carefully. I try to minimize dairy products, egg and wheat and that’s why smoothies are awesome!

This Alpro coconut base is delicious if you like me are crazy about coconut. I always have avocado in all my smoothies. It brings smoothness to the smoothie (hehe) and provides a ton of health benefits. Banana adds sweetness and the rest is easy to improvise depending on what you have at home.

I know I’ve said it before but I can’t function without my everyday smoothie. It is the best way to secure a nutritious daily intake and the kiddo’s love em ;).
