Foodie Fabulous Tip #2

Foodie Fabulous Tip #2

Try grating some nutmeg over your favourite tea 

( I prefer black with milk for this ). 

It's delicious and makes for something a little different . 

Food Tip

I am starting a new thing called Foodie Fabulous Tips.... anything that is food related but is not really a recipe! 

Here is the first one!

Foodie Fabulous Tip #1

Try adding chia seeds to your scrambled eggs, not only is it a great way to add this wonderful super food to your diet but it tastes great too, and surprisingly it doesn't affect the eggs that much ! 

It makes for a wonderful protein filled breakfast ! 

Strawberry Rice Milk Smoothie

Not all food on my blog has to be unhealthy, I have a favourite Strawberry smoothie recipe. 

It it light on the dairy side, but if you are lactose intolerant you can leave the yoghurt out and top it up with some more rice milk or chia seeds.  

Ingredients:

- 1 tsp chia Seeds

- 3 tbsp yoghurt

- 1 punnet strawberries

- 1 tsp honey

- 1 cup rice milk

Blend all together and enjoy xoxo

After dinner mint biscuits

I should be doing my assessment work for TAFE, so naturally I am online looking at calorie laden recipes. I saw this in my inbox from Gourmet Traveller, my new favourite foodie magazine. 

They just look divine!

I must try them soon.

It is published by Squires baking school in England and has the most beautiful recipes, pictures and creataive ideas about baking I have ever seen.

Turkish Delight Hot Chocolate

I have a deep love for the flavour of turkish delight.

Good turkish delight is amazing to cook with and of course we all know it goes well with chocolate, so why not drink it?

So here is my recipe for a beautiful turkish delight hot chocolate

Serves 2

Ingredients:
- 1 Tablespoon of the softest best Turkish delight you can get ( I prefer the kind you can get from traditional lolly shops at the markets) 
- 4 Teaspoons of Rosewater ( not essence)
- 1 teaspoon raw sugar
- 2 Tablespoons the best coco powder you can get
- 1/2 cup of water
- 1 1/2 Cup of milk

Method:

Place all ingredients in a saucepan on a medium heat and stir until all dissolved, do not let boil.
You can add any little chunks of turkish delight left over that didn't get time to melt into each glass if you like.


Enjoy xoxo
