Rhubarb Apple Oatmeal

5/23/2017

This recipe came into my mind when my mum was visiting me in Brussels and made a rhubarb cake. She said that I can use rhubarb even into smoothies. I did not know rhubarb well before. Now I know it is more acidic and you need to peel it before. So this recipe is purely my own creation.
Ingredients
for 1 person
half cup of oats
1 apple
1 rhubarb stalk
plant based milk
coconut oil
cinnamon
half of banana
honey or maple syrup
toppings: some nuts and cranberries, raspberries
How to make it
First you preheat the oven fro 180 degrees. While the oven is heating up, you peel the rhubarb and cut into small pieces. Then you put it on a baking tray and drizzle it wit maple syrup or honey. You bake it for about 15-20min until soft. While baking you prepare the oatmeal - cook the oats in a plant based milk with coconut oil and cinnamon for 10min until it becomes a porridge. When the rhubarb is ready, you take it out of the oven and let it cool for 5 min. You put half of the rhubarbt into the oatmeal and half you put into the blender. Put the banana, apple and little bit of plant based milk into blender and mix it. Then you can put a mixed smoothie on the top of the porridge with some toppings. Enjoy!;)

Banana Zucchini Bread

This recipe is not of course my idea - I took it from Deliciously Ella's book. AND it was the first time I would bake a Banana bread:) However, I have adjusted little bit the ingredients. It is nice to serve it with some fruits or nut butter.

Ingredients
for a loaf of bread
4 ripe bananas
3 apples cooked
1 tablespoon of coconut oil
300g of oats
2 tablespoons of chia seeds
2 tablespoons of flax seeds
little bit of rice milk
2 tablespoons of cinnamon

How to make it?
First, you slice and cut the apples into small pieces and let it cook in a pan with little bit of water for 40min until soft. Put the chia seeds into the water so they will soak little bit of water (until the water covers the seeds) and become a sponge. After 30 min you can start preheating the oven for 180 degrees. Then you mix bananas, cooked apples, coconut oil, oats, rice milk, flax seeds, cinnamon, chia seeds into the blender and blend it. If you do not have a blender or good blender then use a mixer. Put the batter into the oiled baking tray. Let it bake for 45min or more. and then just ENJOY!:)

Poppy chia seeds apple oatmeal

I have found the poppy seeds in my cupboard and was thinking what to do with them. And then I saw chia seeds next to make and the idea came to my mind - if I use chia seeds in the oatmeal why not to integrate poppy seeds as well? And I remember how my grandmother used to bake delicious ‘’strudel with poppy seeds and apple’’.

Ingredients
for 1 person

half cup of oats (maybe less if you eat less in the morning:)
tablespoon of chia seeds
tablespoon of poppy seeds
half of grated apple
rice or almond milk
tablespoon of coconut oil or ghee
toppings - walnuts, raisins or cranberries

How to make it?
Very easy! You put oats, chia seeds, poppy seeds into pot with milk and little bit of water and let it heat on a medium heat. Put the tablespoon of the coconut oil so it is smooth at the same time. Let it cook for 10 min and stir it occasionally so it does not burn on the bottom. When it becomes a porridge then switch it off and add grated apple. If you are completely into ayurveda, then do not put apples inside:)

I like to have green smoothie in the mornings when it is sunny and warm weather or if I had a heavy dinner the day before or if I crave for raw breakfast. This one has been my favourite smoothie so far because it is so delicious and healthy at the same time. If you want to eat more spinach and don't like it in the salads, just blend it with some fruits & avocado and your iron level will increase:)

Ingredients
for 1 person

handful of fresh spinach
half of the apple
half banana
half of the pear
almond sugar free milk
half of the avocado
1 tablespoon moringa (new super food supplement rich in vitamin A,c E, potassium, calcium, minerals, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant properties.
1 tablespoon of chlorela
toppings - roasted cashews, GOJI berries

How To make it?
Basically, you put everything into blender:) You pour it into the glass or take it away and pour it into the jar. Put some toppings on top of it so you can enjoy the crunchy nuts or berries. This way you have a feeling you chew something while having everything blended.

Coconut chia rice oatmeal

5/15/2017

I have decided to prepare the oatmeal as the weather should not be super warm and still it is nice to eat some warm oatmeal in the morning. I always use only bio & fresh ingredients so the body receives essential nutritions. Oatmeal is very easy to prepare but I give you some tips how to make it even better. Instead of oats, I use rice flakes as they are gluten-free. I use almond natural milk with no sugar and at least 7% of the almonds in it. I put some chia seeds in so it does acquire the pudding structure.

Ingredients
for 1 person

1/2 cup of the rice flakes
1 tablespoon of chia seeds
1 tablespoon of the coconut oil
4 cardamon pods
1 tablespoon of fenikel
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
1/2 cup of berries
hot water
almond milk natural with no sugar
little bit of lemon juice
pinch of salt
honey
toppings: raisins & sunflower and pumpkin seeds & blueberries

How to make it?
First, you heat the 1/2 cup of water in the kettle. Then soak the rice flakes into the water so they become soft. If you use oats, you do not have to soak them. Then heat the coconut oil in the pan. Put all spices in (cardamon, fenikel, cinnamon) and roast them for 2 minutes. The reason why we roast the spices, is to enhance their health benefits. If you roast them in the ghee, even better:). Put the rice flakes into the pan with all spices and mix well. Pour the almond milk into it and mix. Put the chia seeds in. If it is not wet enough, pour more water or milk. Let it cook for 10min on a medium heat until it becomes smooth. Stir regularly so it does not burn. You can add some water or milk if it is too dry. While the oatmeal is being cooked, roast some seeds in the pan so they become crunchy. In the end, put some berries into the oatmeal and the rest of the them leave as a topping. Put pinch of the salt and little bit of lemon juice so all human tastes are being satisfied:) If you like the oatmeal more sweet, then add on the sugar. ENJOY!:)
