Apple oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies

These apple oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies are soft, chewy, healthy and tasty. Low in granulated sugar and made with oats, apple sauce and fresh cashew purée, they’re great as a mid-day snack or to boost your energy before going to the gym. For a decadent, yet nutritious treat, I’ve added dark chocolate (60-70 % cacao) chunks and teff […]

Last month I made some Green Thai Curry Bowls with authentic green Thai Paste. They are very colourful and the broth is low in saturated fat - made with 1/2 cup low fat coconut milk, veggie bouillon, lime juice and a touch of miso paste just for flavour. I try hard to promote heart healthy foods having worked for many years in a cardiac intensive care unit I think I know a thing or two on the importance of diet and a healthy heart❤️! Stay healthy. Eat well. Recipe is up on the blog in my profile. . . . #healthyfood #hearthealthyrecipes #hearthealthy #hearthealthydiet #thaifood #thaicuisine #plantbasedfoods #veganbowls #curry #vegetarianrecipes #vegandiet #healthymeals #asianfoods
Creamy savory vegan stroganoff. The weather here in Switzerland hasn’t been great - cool, grey and rainy although today the sun finally came out a few times ☀️. Last weekend, we cozied up with this creamy plant-based stroganoff made with mushrooms and my fresh cashew cream that I love to whip up on the side. It’s so delish and a snap to put together! I’ve been busy at work and haven’t yet posted the recipe in my blog but I promise that it’ll be up soon for you to enjoy! . . . #plantbasedmeal #plantbasedfoods #veganfoodshare #veganfood #nutrition #healthyfood #stroganoff #savoryfood #mushrooms #vegetarianrecipes
Happy birthday Pico! 🎉Our cat turned 20 this month! Not many cats make it this far! She got the best of care such as good food and hygiene but what we gave her most was a lot of love and attention! She is in great physical and mental shape, for her age! 😺💕 . . . #cats #tabbycat #tabbycats #pets #animals #animalcare #petcare

Brush glaze on aubergine halves and roast in 200C oven for 30-45 minutes.

Turmeric, ginger, lemon and honey (or pure maple syrup for vegan) for sore throat. I’ve been sick with a viral infection for six days. I rarely call in sick and I got a medical certificat to stay home and not be at the workplace on Friday. It can get somewhat complicated here when we call in sick, but I can honestly say, that I’m not someone who abuses or takes advantage of the system. Anyhow, what prompted me to stay home was to avoid spreading what I had (and still have) and to stop taking analgesics /Ibuprofen so regularly just to mask the symptoms so that I can teach and face my classes. I just got fed up with all of it because it just isn’t fair for me or for those with whom I’m in contact with. For 2 days now, I’ve been resting at home, taking it slow and drinking/ sipping this beverage that has natural healing properties that help reduce those nasty symptoms. It’s now midday here and things are starting to lighten up for me. There’s a feeling of relief running through my veins. I plan to go out for a forest walk later today with husband John who just came back from a full week’s work abroad. If you are suffering from cold or flu symptoms, stop pushing yourself. I highly recommend lots of rest at home and this golden beverage! The recipe is up on my blog in my profile @healthcontinuum . Have a wonderful weekend and take care!
