Good Morning Little ones! What are your plans for today? My bestfriend is coming over-can't wait to see her! Also running into town to get a few bits and pieces, then I need to double check if my glasses have arrived; because I can't see properly; I'm surprised I've been able to write clear blog posts.
Any how, it's not too long for Christmas! I'm so excited! Also have you seen the giveaway I'm hosting on my blog, if not then Click here! All you have to do is follow my blog and you are automatically entered! Now lets get on with the blog post :D.

Ingredients:

• 100 grams egg noodles;
• 1 red pepper;
• 1 squash;
• 1 precooked chicken leg;
• 3 plums;
• soy-sauce;
• oil.

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

1. Making the sauce: cut and skin the plums and put them into a blender, add the soy-sauce and blend, then put to one side.
2. Prepare your vegetables: cut the pepper into fine strips, and the squash into little squares; this way it cooks faster. 
3. Put oil into a pan and place the vegetables in there, wait until they are soft and then add the chicken;
4. after 3 minutes add the egg noodles and homemade plum sauce until steaming hot;
5. Plate up and enjoy! :D 

Why these ingredients?

Red bell peppers contain several phytochemicals and carotenoids, particularly beta-carotene, which lavish you with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. This strengths your immune system and helps fight infection due to the phytochemicals. 

Chicken:

Chicken:

Chicken as we all know contains an mass amount of protein, this repairs your muscles and insures that they won't rip or pull. This is crucial in your diet if you do weight-training or any form of sports.

Good morning Little ones! Long time so see on the vegan recipes! I'm back in action and creating so much more! It's autumn, and what's better to eat this time of year than steamy mash potato. Normally I would have gem-potatoes, simply because that's all I've ever had. I've never actually tried sweet potato mash; which shocks me as I love sweet potato.
Enough rambling, if you want to make this concoction then follow the simple instructions down below:).

If you want to see another vegan recipe, click here!

Ingredients:

• 3 sweet potatoes;
• vegan cream (Alpro);
• 1 birds-eye chilli-VERY HOT be warned;
• 2 spring onions;
• 2 carrots.

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

1. Prepare you vegetables: peel the carrots and potatoes. Chop the carrots into fine chunks and place them into a large pan, do the same with the sweet potato.
   Dice the chilli and spring onion and put to one side;
2. Put 2lts of water into the kettle and wait until boiled. Once boiled pour the water into the large pan, in which the carrots and potatoes are;
3. Leave to cook for 20 minutes (until soft);
4. When the carrots and potatoes are done mash them with a folk until fully combined. 
5. Add the Alpro cream and stir together. Once combined add the chilli and spring onion and stir again.
6. Plate up and ENJOY! :D 

WHY THESE INGREDIENTS? 

Spring onion:
Onions are a great antioxidant, they also contain low fat saturation, this won't clog up your arteries, as it reduces cholesterol, in comparison to a normal red or green onion, this is so much better for your mental and physical health.

Carrots:
This root vegetable is also a good source of antioxidant agents. Which simply means that they are detoxing your body, and making sure that bad bacteria stays away.

Sweet potato:
Sweet potato is enriched with beta-carotene. In the body, beta-carotene converts into vitamin A (retinol). We need vitamin A for good vision and eye health, for a strong immune system, and for healthy skin and

Have you seen my giveaway? If not click here! 

Hello and welcome! How are you today? Sorry for being so late in posting this, but I had to attend a LAN meeting at my future university in September :).

I know these recipes are your favourite, so I gave you what you wanted, and that's another vegan smoothie! :D 

This is my favourite creation of mine yet! The sweetness of the apricots and the syrup combined is mouthwatering! If you want to find out out to make this tropical concoction; have a little read below :).

 Ingredients:

• 3 apricots;
• 200 ml;

1. Prepare the fruit; wash the apricots, cut them in half and then into quarters. After this is done place them into the blender of your choice;
2. add the almond milk and the golden syrup;
3. blend this fruity goodness for 3 minutes. You don't have to do it for this long, but that's because I like a smooth smoothie with no bits.

Why these ingredients?

Almond milk:

Almond milk is filled with potassium, this helps prepare and enhance: cells, tissue and organs in the human body. This is essential in everyday life, you always need to repair yourself.

Vegan Recipe

Watermelon, orange and yogurt smoothie

Good afternoon! Change of plans, but I thought that I would give you another vegan recipe! I love experimenting with different fruits; and I'm always in the mood for a good old smoothie! So I decided to share my creation with you!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did! If you want to know how to make this, have a little look below and enjoy! :D 

If you want to see another vegan recipe, click here!

Ingredients:

• 1 watermelon;
• 25ml orange juice;
• 25 grams vegan yogurt, (I used alpro raspberry).

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

1. Prepare your fruit: cut the watermelon in half, and half again; this makes quarters, ( as shown in the pictures above). After you have done this, slice the quarters so that they are in strips. Cut around the melon and the skin so you are left with the red flesh. Cut these into cubes;
2. put the watermelon into the blender and add the orange and the yogurt;
3. blend for a few seconds, because watermelon is a water based fruit the smoothie won't be lumpy;
4. ENJOY! :D 

Why these ingredients?

Watermelon:
Watermelon's are filled with vitamins A, B6 and C, and is also an amazing antioxidant. Vitamin C is amazing for the skin, it replenishes the several layers of skin, as well as keeping it hydrated and firm. Vitamin C is common in skin care brands, as it has a multitude of benefits for the skin. As well as this, watermelon also fights infections and builds the immune system. 

Orange:

Oranges are an excellent source of vitamin C. They are also a very good source of dietary fiber. Just like the watermelon, oranges are great for the skin. When I make a facial mask oranges are my go to ingredient; not only do they smell great; but they feel fantastic on the skin; it makes me feel awake. 

I hope your day has been amazing so far, and if not, then make it great! I know that I will hopefully be posting another blog post this evening; but I will be heading to my boyfriend's for dinner :).
You will hear from me soon though! Stay tuned Little ones :) x x x

Good morning! How are you doing today? I know it's early, but I have another vegan recipe for you! I made this last night, and it has made so much of an impact! It's super delicious and easy to make! I hope you enjoy this recipe; I put a lot of thought and hard work into it :) 

If you want to see how this is made, follow the few easy steps down below :) 

If you want to see another vegan recipe, click here!

P.S, I didn't take pictures of when they came out of the oven because they were eaten in a flash! I was super hungry, and so was my boyfriends family, I'm so glad they enjoyed my cooking :) 

I would also recommend one per person, as they are super filling!  

Ingredients:

• 3 peppers (colour of your choice);
• 300 grams kidney beans; 
• 2 garlic gloves; 
• 25 grams sweetcorn; 
• 1 onion; 
• chili powder; 
• parsley; 
• salt and pepper;
• 1 tbs extra virgin olive oil.
  This is the amount of ingredients to make 6, but I was feeding a family of 6. If you need to alter the measurements for just one you can do that as well :). 

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

1. Preheat your oven to 180;
2. prepare all your vegetables: chop the peppers in half and take out the core, dice the onion, drain the kidney beans, drain the sweetcorn, dice the garlic and chop the parsley;
3. put all the prepared veg (except the peppers) in a large bowl; 
4. pour 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil and mix;
5. add the chili powder, salt, pepper, and parsley and mix again;
6. mash the mixture with a masher,(or folk);
7. spoon the mixture into the peppers; 
8. place on a baking tray with grease proof paper, and cook for 20 minutes; 
9. plate up and ENJOY! :D 

Why these ingredients?

Garlic:
Depending on how we prepare our garlic depends on how much nutrients we get out of it; this is why I have suggested either: cutting or crushing. This increases the enzymes within the garlic, these enzymes can prevent cancer.

Onion:
Onions are a great antioxidant, they also contain low fat saturation, this won't clog up your arteries, as it reduces cholesterol, in comparison to a normal red or green onion, this is so much better for your mental and physical health.

Parsley:
Parsley has a huge amount of vitamin K, this helps builds bones and heals heart disease. in addition to this, parsley also has vitamin A, which as we already know is great for our eyes, and acts as a fantastic antioxidant.

Kidney beans:
Kidney beans are an excellent source of molybdenum. They also contain a very good source of folate, dietary fiber, and copper. This builds the immune system and also improves the metabolism, it speeds it up. This is handy when you need to loose weight as everything passes through quickly. 

Thank you for reading this blog post, I really hope you enjoy this meal, this is one of my favourites, if not my favourite! I'm so happy that I made this, and that the people I served it to really enjoyed it! I want to know what you think! I would also love to see your recreations!
Show me and contact me on my social media platforms above and below this blog post :D
Have a lovely day and see you soon! Stay tuned Little ones :) x x x

3. set your hob to number 4 and place the rice in a pot with already boiling water;
4. after the rice has come to the boil, put a lid over it and leave to simmer, (change the temperature to 1-2), leave to cook for 10-15 minutes;

Brown rice:
Brown rice is a great carbohydrate, it's a long lasting food and helps you fight hunger throughout the day. It would be advisable to have this at lunch or even breakfast time, as it will give you the engery to last throughout the day. It also makes you fill full up, which is great if you are on a diet as you won't need to snack as often.

If you want to keep up to date with that I do on a daily basis follow me on my social media above, and I'll be sure to follow you right back :).

Hello Little ones! Hope you are well and having a good day, I have another smoothie recipe for you! I hope you enjoy it; this is the perfect start of the day meal; if you are in a rush you can drink this on the go and still feel full and energised :).

You can check out my other smoothie recipe click here!

If you want to make this yummy smoothie look at the simple steps down below :). 

Ingredients:

• 1 banana; 
• 5 strawberries; 
• 25grams oats;
• 50grams alpro almond milk

These are just the measurements I used to make a small smoothie, it filled half of the 600 ml bottle. You can double the ingredients if you want to; this is just what I wanted to do. Also a tip when blending, make sure you blend for 2-3 minutes for a smooth texture; because the oats are hard you want to make sure that they are smooth at the end. If you like bits in your drink, or don't mind textures then you don't have to do this:). 

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS: 

1. Cut up your strawberries and banana and place them in the blender; 
2. pour the oats into the blender slowly (so that you don't make a mess);
3. slowly pour the almond milk into the blender;
4. BLEND;
5. optional step: scatter oats onto your smoothie for extra crunch;
6. ENJOY! :D

Why these ingredients? 

Banana:
Banana's are filled with potassium, this mineral helps function and repair: cells, tissue and muscle within the body. It also makes you feel more energised by sending electrolyte (an element which sends electricity around the body); along with sodium etc. 

Strawberries:

A strawberry is an excellent antioxidant, this means that they are the first call when it comes to fighting diseases in the body; they also prevent causing other damage to other cells. Strawberries also donate electrons to unstable free radicals. This means that they don't have to take electrons from innocent cells. 

Oats:

Oats have a slow release level of energy, this means that you can have these for breakfast and last a long time without food. This is handy if you are on a diet and want to loose weight; as you won't get hungry as often throughout the day.
