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:).

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 

This is now the end of the blog post! I hope you enjoy this tasty snack/meal. Eat it with whatever you want, I love it alone as an afternoon stack; especially when it's cold outside. I can place this into a bowl, get all snuggled in bed and eat :).
I hope you are all happy and healthy, I'm going out to London again today, and also getting my hair dyed! I can't wait to show you! Stay tuned and stay safe Little ones! I love you! x x x

Good afternoon Little ones! How are you today? I've had no lectures, but I have been very productive! I've cleaned the apparent, gone shopping, planned future blog posts; and also bought the very ingredients for this blog post :). But I still have to do some more research for my first assignment; which is going very well, I'm aiming for an A and I think it's going that way! Any how, I thought that it would be great to show you some drink recipes! It's something I haven't done in a while; and I really miss making them! So here it is, get ready and have some fun!









Ingredients:

  • One entire bottle of elderflour (you can use flat or sparkling, it depends on what you want); I went with sparkling because my boyfriend adores fizzy drinks; especially when something sweet is involved;
  • 50 grams raspberries, (frozen or fresh), I went with frozen because I wanted something cold and refreshing;
  • 2 clementines;
  • ice cubes (optional).

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

  1. Prepare your fruit: peel  the oranges and cut them into cubes, put the correct amount of raspberries to one side, as well as the ice cubes;
  2. choose your required blender, I used the blendactive blender by Breville, I think it's fantastic, easy to use and easy to clean- if you want to see my review click here;
  3. put the fruit. ice and elderflower liquid into the blender;
  4. BLEND!
  5. Take it on the go or put them into glasses, and ENJJOY! :D 

WHY THESE INGREDIENTS?

Raspberry:
Raspberries is one of the greatest antioxidant foods, it cleanses the body and makes you feel great inside. As well as being super delicious, raspberries can also prevent cancer, science studies have shown this.

Clementines:
Clementines are juicy delights rich in variety of vital nutrients including minerals such ascalciummagnesiumpotassium. This is fantastic brain food, and also makes you feel awake. This is the perfect fruit in the morning, as it gives you enough energy to start the day. 

Little ones, I'm sorry to say that this is the end of the blog post, but fear not! I will be back tomorrow with a fantastic review, stay tuned if you are interested. I hope you have had a lovely day, I know that I've had a really productive day; which makes one of my favourites. I love you all so very much! Remember I am only a message away if you want to talk to me or ask me anything; I will answer the best that I can :).

Stay safe and stay tuned Little ones :) x x x

Vegan Recipe

Blueberry and blackberry vegan pancakes

GOOD MORNING! I've had a great couple of days talking to some of you! My Twitter has been blowing up, I'm so delighted and overwhelmed with joy that you are taking time out of your day to not only read my posts; but to talk to me as well! I know today is meant to be my day off; but I couldn't not share this! 
I hope you enjoy making these as much as I did! If you want to find out how I made these bundles of joy, have a quick read down below :) 

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







Ingredients:

  • 100 grams self-raising flour;
  • 100 ml almond milk;
  • 10 grams blueberries;
  • 10 grams blackberries;
  • 2tbs olive oil
  • salt;
  • golden syrup (optional).

STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS:

  1. Put your pan on a low heat (setting 2-3); this ensures that when you've made the batter the pan would heat up enough. You don't want a high setting as it will burn the surface and leave the inside raw;
  2. sift the flour into a bowl and add a sprinkle of salt;
  3. pour in the almond milk and mixed till combined;
  4. add the oil and mix until the mixture is elastic; 
  5. add the blackberries and blueberries, take a fork and crush them into the mixture; this method ensures that you will have tiny blueberry and blackberry pieces in your pancake;
  6. spoon in a small or large amount of mixture (depends how big you want your pancakes); and place them into the center of the pan;
  7. put a tiny amount of oil on the pan before hand, don't want them to stick;
  8. cook one side for two minutes, flip over and cook the other side for two minutes;
  9. repeat this process until you have no mixture left;
  10. put your extra toppings on the side, this would be the extra fruit and golden syrup for me;
  11. ENJOY! :D

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.

Blueberries:
The blueberry's fiber, potassium, folate, and vitamin C coupled with its lack of cholesterol, all support heart health. The fiber in blueberries helps lower the total amount of cholesterol in the blood and decrease the risk of heart disease this is perfect if heart disease runs in the family.

Blackberries:

Much like spinach, raisins, apples, plums and grapes, blackberries are rich in bioflavonoids and Vitamin C. This is perfect for the skin, it replaces new cells, as well as keeping the skin firm and soft.  

Thank you for reading this post! I really hope you enjoyed these delicious treats! I know I did! Since becoming vegan this has helped me so much! Fruit helps with the sweetness, but these pancakes help the cake side :') 

I would love to see your recreations! Please keep talking to me on social media! It really makes my day! Or even comment below! I will respond however you want :) 
I love you all! Have a lovely day, and I will see you again later :)
