#12: Not-So-Green Green Chocolate Smoothie

[zum Beitrag auf Deutsch geht's hier!]
I often see raw kale as a smoothie ingredient but I was never really sure about how my digestion would react to it. When I was on vacation a few weeks ago I finally tried it... and was amazed by it! I loved this smoothie and so I have to share the recipe with you ;-)

You need:
- one handful romaine lettuce
- 2-3 small leafs of kale (or 1-2 big ones)
- 2 small carrots

Sorry for the long break here at my Vegan MoFo but I have a cold and didn't really feel that good to post or just do ANYTHING than sleeping and trying to get well again ;-)

Vegan Wednesday #57 - 18.9.2013

Breakfast: Oatmeal with banana, peach, fig and chocolate granola.

For lunch I had a colourful and warm vegetable soup.

It's Wednesday again, what means it is time for showing what I ate today ;-) Unfortunately I forgot to take my camera with me (I wasn't at home today) and so I only could take pictures with a smartphone camera.
Well, here in Germany it's already time to sleep and I have to get up early tomorrow, so I wish everyone a good night or an amazing day!

Sorry for posting that late again, I had my first day at work today and just relaxed in front of the tv the last hours :-D
Here's another yummy and simple recipe, this time for breakfast! If you eat it right after preparing, it will be crunchy but if you want to prepare it and take it with you in a jar - no problem, it won't have a crunch but will be tasty anyway for sure!

- 1/2 cup unsweetened soy yogurt (or flavor of choice)
- 1/2 tsp coconut sugar / agave syrup

#6: sweet arugula salad with grilled figs and zucchini

[zum Beitrag auf Deutsch geht's hier!]

At the moment you can buy figs everywhere here in Germany and I looove these small purple fruits so much. Often I don't make it to "process" them because I eat them right out of our fridge :-D
So yesterday I thought, I start experimenting with figs and my grill pan and so this sweet salad came up!


You need:
- two medium figs
- 1/2 medium zucchini
- a big handful arugula
- 4-5 cherry tomatoes

#5: homemade "Raw Bite Cacao" Bar // Recovered..

[zum Beitrag auf Deutsch geht's hier!]

Hello everyone! Sorry for posting that late but today was such a sunny day, I spent it after working out on my balcony and outside in the sun and totally forgot about the time :-)
I hope you also had an amazing day and a great start into the weekend!
Today's recipe is very simple and shows you how to make your own "Raw Bite Cacao" bar at home!
Raw Bites are fully raw bars which are only sweetened with natural ingredients (dates). They are more chewy than crunchy but sooo delicious.
So here's my try to "copy" them:

You need:
- 1/2 cup deglet nour dates (10 pieces)

#4: Favorite Post Workout Shake // Lunch at the La Mano Verde in Berlin // Haircut at Night

[zum Beitrag auf Deutsch geht's hier!]

This time I want to show you my all time favorite of protein shakes: Banana chocolate!
My favorite protein powder is the Sunwarrior, a raw rice protein which is great to digest. I also own soy isolate but when I use it too often it makes me bloat a lot, so I decided to use it only for baking until it's empty. Pea Protein is the third kind of protein powder I have at home at the moment (freaaaaak, i know, i tried out a lot!) and that is a great alternative to soy as well! Great to digest, to blend in smoothies AND by far not as pricey as the Sunwarrior!
Oh, and raw hemp protein is amazing as well, it has a nutty taste and is great in smoothies!

 

You need:
- 1 medium banana
- 1 scoop sunwarrior chocolate (or vanilla)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk oder water

You need:

- one medium carrot, finely grated or chopped

- 1 nori sheet

- 1tbsp tahin

#1: I'm on vacation - one week with me! // Chocolate Smoothiebowl Recipe! // Follow me around: my room!

[zum Beitrag auf Deutsch geht's hier!]

Yay, here it is: my first post of the Vegan Month of Food 2013! Excitinggggg!
And as you can read above, the first post is already packed with lot of content... or more pictures :-D

This week I'm on vacation but I will not leave my home, I'll stay in Berlin (Germany). My mum is on vacation too, so we'll visit some vegan restaurants and cafes for sure. 
My plan for this week is to post a recipe everyday, plus one picture (minimum) of me/the day. Probably you'll see pictures of me after working out at the gym everyday the upcoming 7 days because I was ill for the last two weeks what meant I couldn't do any sports. But, of course, I hope to show you a bit more than only a sweaty me ;-D
