Coconut Chia seed Pudding

-

Hi people Elianne here, I've been really into making this chia pudding recently and thought why not share it? I make it the night before since it needs to be put in the fridge overnight, but this actually saves me a lot of time in the morning. So if you are looking for a healthy, easy, fast and filling breakfast I'm coming to your rescue. This breakfast is very nutrient dense and full of healthy fats that are a necessity in your diet to get all the right amino-acids. You can also take it with you if you are really in a hurry. Okay I'll stop talking now and just give you the recipe. You know how that works, just follow the steps.



You will need:

- Half a cup/ 86 grams + two tbsp chia seeds (you can also use two tbsp of flax/hemp seeds to mix it up a bit)
- 1 1/2 cup/ 375 ml (plant-based milk of choice) I used a mix of coconut and almond milk
- 1 tsp vanille extract 
- 2 tbsp of agave syrup (this is entirely up to taste)
- 2 tbsp coconut shaving 
- fresh fruit of your choosing to put on top


Okay now follows the extremely difficult part of this recipe. How to make it.
Basically;

- step 1 combine everything in a jar 
- step 2 stir 
- step 3 put it in the fridge overnight with the lid slightly off so the water can escape and it thickens 
- step 4 wait/sleep
- step 5 top it with fruit and enjoy (yes that's a requirement) 

Hope you like it as much as I do

Yours Faithfully,

Elianne

Vegan Sushi review

Hey Sushi lover! You've come to the right address if you want to read about me devouring some sushi. I saw a Facebook event named vegan sushi event en needn't know more. I was going. It was held in de stad tuin in Utrecht. The place was small but perfect for the occasion. We started off with a buddha bowl. (last pic) it had orange and purple sweet potato, soy crisps, vegetable and some great sauces. We drank Saki with it, which was served warm.  After that sushi round one came. (middle left) It consisted of mango/wasabi, avocado/guacamole, cucumber/sweet potato/sweet sauce, cucumber/carrot/spicy sauce maki. Im not the biggest fan of wasabi but if you are that one would probably be your favorite. I basically liked all the others. Next round had purple sweet potato/beet mayo, cabbage/curry, soy/sweet sugar maki. (middle right) They were all delicious and gone in no time. It paired perfectly with my mannen liefde beer.  Third came the beyond meat sushi burger. I

What I ate in Cuba

Hello! It's been a while since we last spoke but I think this post will be a good one to catch up ;) This summer I went to Central America including Cuba. As you could probably guess by now, this is a what I ate there as a vegan. As predicted it was quite hard. For one, Cuba doesn't really have import, therefore they only eat what they can grow. Secondly, Cubans looooove their meat/fish and cheese. Luckily there is this space age technology now called the internet. So I could do all my stalking beforehand. The one I'm going to talk about first was based in Vinales called  Finca Agroecológica El Paraiso AKA  organic farm. We arrived after cycling thirty minutes in 40 degrees celsius heat up a steep hill. The view was amazing and made it all worth it. We were sat at a table overlooking the valley and organic farm where birds flew from palmtree too palmtree. After asking if we could have the lunch vegan they gave us a so many plates full of fresh organic food. Includi

The basis of CARBOHYDRATES

Carbohydrates are one of the essential macronutrients in our diet, alongside fat and protein. They can be categorized into simple carbohydrates (sugars) and complex carbohydrates. This article focuses on simple carbohydrates, specifically monosaccharides and disaccharides, and explores their chemical composition and digestion process. Simple carbohydrates can be further classified into monosaccharides and disaccharides. Monosaccharides include glucose, fructose, and galactose, while disaccharides are composed of combinations of these monosaccharides. The disaccharides commonly found in our diet are maltose (two glucose molecules), sucrose (glucose linked to fructose), and lactose (glucose linked to galactose). Galactose is primarily present in our diet as part of lactose, found in milk and dairy products. Monosaccharides, due to their simple structure, can be directly absorbed into the bloodstream without the need for further digestion. However, disaccharides require hydrolysis, a proc
