Monday food magic





I conjured up the most delicious breakfast and dinner today.  I have to share because generally I tend to eat anything that is healthy, purely to be healthy - be that resembling of frog slime - i'll drink it!!!

But today a couple of things were a taste sensation, felt so good and nourishing and kept me full for HOURS.

I started with my juice of the moment - carrots, beetroot, celery and ginger.  Then I made a smoothie - whizzing a small handful of soaked almonds (soaked overnight in filtered water and a pinch of good quality sea salt), coconut oil, banana, carrot tops (superior in nutrition when compared with the carrots), handful of fresh mint, good teaspoon of raw cocoa and a little filtered water.  It was DELICIOUS - and so filling.

On my way to work I grabbed a coffee from my favourite spot cafe vue - organic coffee and milk.  And I literally was full for hours.  This never happens - I am usually on the prowl for crumbs every five minutes.  



THEN, for dinner we had a salad of:

Leaves (salad mix)
cherry tomatoes (biodynamic - they tasted so sweet)
bocconcini (mini mozzarella)
Slices of fresh fig
avocado (optional - bro and I had it)
Pancetta (optional - added to the boy's in this case)
Gosh it was good.  I dressed the boy's salad in balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and sea salt while bro and I had the olive oil, apple cider vinegar and sea salt.  Oh so good.  I didn't even take a picture as I was too eager to hoe into it and couldn't stop!!!

Much love x
