Hello everyone. This recipe has become a staple salad at home as my husband loves all the flavours that it brings! It’s a light and refreshing salad with an easy home-made dressing. It’s VEGAN/VEGETARIAN/DAIRY FREE/GLUTEN FREE – which means it will suit most diets! 🙂 It was published on Almonds & Raisins and here’s a screenshot of it:
Ok hope guys try this salad out! If you have any suggestions for me to add to it, give me a shout! 🙂
As you get busier you tend to cut some corners where food is concerned. This is especially true when snacking. So to make sure I don’t jump on the full-fatty-wagon, I keep nuts and seeds nearby my computer. For a dessert craving that is relatively healthy (as opposed to eating a banana split LOL) is this! I’d love to take credit for this idea, but its not mine. I came across it months ago on the internet (I’m not sure where, but the person put chocolate chips in the banana). I put Nutella. Not a big diff. But just to be clear. It’s a Nutella banana boat! I’ve just bought Raw Peruvian Cacao Nibs that I will try putting instead.

YES that’s it. It’s truly decadent. Feast in. I’d recommend one each if you are two people LOL. My husband and I couldn’t share one. Just FYI!

Hi everyone! It’s been super hot in London, I actually feel I’m near the equator – like Singapore or something! You’d never expect London to have a real summer. It feels weird. I can’t exactly complain though just ’cause I am soaking the sun up! 🙂 I’ve been experimenting with drinks to combat the heat and make use of my blender. Haha!
I’m on a Serious Summer Smoothie Mission.
I’ve got a box of Ferrero Rocher as part of a Birthday Gift from someone really special, so I’ve found ways to eat it. HAHAHA! Not that you need ways to eat chocolate, just to be clear! 🙂
Yummyyyyy. It was really heavy though – so treat it like an in between meal. (Yes there’s such a thing! No one said you can only have 3 meals a day!)
Happy with my photography 🙂

Hello everyone! I was feeling nostalgic a few days ago. Dreaming about my trip to Prague…
In Prague, I had the most amazing drink to quench my thirst on a hot, scorching day. It was basically a fresh lemonade with a puree of raspberries in it. So unique! I loved the burst of flavours and we had 3 days in a row. I’ve been missing it in London so thought I’d give it a shot. My husband said it was exactly the same – and well – I do agree! 🙂 Get your antioxidants, vitamin C, A and E in one drink! Not to mention, raspberries are rich in minerals too. They are a super food and thankfully super easy to eat. So berry good!
Yummy and perfect for summer!
Loving it! 🙂

Method:
Note: Sugar Syrup can be made by adding organic cane sugar to boiling water. Let it dissolve, keep it in a bottle and use as needed. I find this makes drinks dissolve sugar better. Otherwise – when you add raw sugar to it – it tends to sit on the bottom!
Enjoy the summer!

Hello everyone. Fridays = Food. Well OK to be very honest, Everyday = Food! 🙂 I just absolutely love food. I’m always on the quest to try out new things as food should be interesting and fun! I bought rice paper and googled a few recipes for Vietnamese Rolls, most of which seemed rather yummy but I lacked ingredients, so I made up my own. 🙂 Yummy Vegetarian Rolls!
Don’t they just look gorgeous? I tried to make them as colorful as possible 🙂 It’s really a healthy side – somewhat like a salad roll. Yes that’s how I roll. LOL

Hello all! Yesterday I wanted to eat a Jacket Potato but without all the cheese, just something different. So I whipped this up – to add to B’s easy collection of Recipes 🙂
And then I thought.. Let me just add Chia Seeds to it for a boost in health 😉

I got to eat amazing Yusheng this year. For those of you who haven’t tried it- you are seriously missing out on life itself. It’s got the crunch, the flavour and meaning behind it. It’s amazing.
Each ingredient in the salad signifies a different meaning that provides luck for the New Year. Chinese believe that the higher you toss the salad while mixing it – the more luck you get! Just imagine, you’re given the green light to make a mess in a sophisticated restaurant. It’s a child’s dream. Oh – wait – it was really fun for me too. Just wonder what does says about me 😉
I took a picture of it before eating it. It was terribly tough to do that – as I couldn’t wait to dig in. So happy that I was in Singapore during that period 🙂
I really want to try to make it at home. I did some googling – came across this recipe which I’m thinking of modifying a bit to suit me more. Will post my version up when I try it out. I think I might need to make a trip to the Chinese Supermarket for some ingredients though!
Hope everyone’s been quite the foodie lately!

Hello everyone! I’ve finally tried a cashew spread that I’ve become reading on vegan blogs forever… Although, a Vitamix seems to do a much creamier job. Maybe one day I’ll finally invest in on – or maybe I’ll win one! Haha! There’s always a benefit to being optimistic. Or maybe Vitamix will read this and want to give me one. OK SO MAYBE.

It kind of resembled Ricotta Cheese but a lot healthier 🙂
I’ve been using it as a dip for carrots 🙂

Hello all! Today we felt like having noodles – okay when I say we I actually mean more my husband than me. I rather make something that would be appreciated to be eaten. The chef needs to be appreciated. When the eater goes hmmmm – it makes the chef feel good about the hard work that went into it 🙂 Ok – I have absolutely no idea why I’m calling myself a chef and speaking in third person today! I’m going to stop. LOL 🙂
Chinese Crispy noodles involve deep-frying and I didn’t feel like something so unhealthy so I made the exact gravy and had it with boiled noodles. However – for those of you who want to try it crispy – you can deep fry it or acti-fry it (less oil and same result).
I loved the way it looked.
Doesn’t it just look delish with the veggie chicken topped on it? It gave it a really new chewy texture!
