I call this smoothie a very green one, because this time I didn't add any other color to the smoothie, only green veggies and avocado ;) Ok, plus the pea protein powder :P The smoothie mug is as well green :) I got the mug from a friend of mine, and I am in love with it, I take it everywhere with me:):) It is from a Swedish company called Sagaform. The smoothie holder is BPA free and it seals perfectly. No drops in the bag :):)
Ok, so here is the recipe:
- handful of spinach
- 1/2 medium cucumber
- 1/2 avocado
- a bit of parsley (according to taste)
- 1 tbsp pea protein powder
- filtered water
Put the spinach, cucumber, parsley and water to the high speed blender. Blend until smooth. Add the avocado and the protein powder. Blend again.
Enjoy :)
I make something out of chickpeas almost every week. I soak a whole pack in water for a night, cook them the next day and think about different ways to use them up :) This time I came up with a combination of chickpea and avocado spread, which was inspired from a spread I had in a restaurant before :)
Here comes the result:
What will you need:
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas
- 1 medium avocado
- 2 small or 1 medium tomato
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 heaping tsp curry powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- a bit of cayenne pepper (according to taste)
- salt and pepper, according to taste
Place all ingredients to food processor and process until a smooth paste is formed. Serve with bread, sweet potato chips, on faltbread or next to a salad :)
Enjoyyy :)
Here is the scenario: you have been partying all night and had a bit too much to drink ...familiar? Now there is next day in the morning and your head is hurting... familiar again? :))) This is the perfect time to make a super energizing green juice, like this one. This super delicious vitamin bomb will keep you awake and you will not need to grab a cup coffee. It will as well help you with hangover, because its very alkalizing and it is full of vitamins!
Of course, you can drink this juice any other day, even if you were at home all night :D
What will you need:
- 5 kale leaves, stems removed
- 1/2 medium cucumber

Juice all ingredients in a juicer. Serve in a stylish glass and sip it slowly. Enjoy every ingredient and feel how the juice helps your body to awaken. Drink your juice 15-20 minutes before breakfast on empty stomach, so all nutrients can be absorbed.
