HEALTHY 5 MIN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

admin — Sun, 09 May 2021 20:14:39 +0000

What’s mousse?

Mousse is a dessert that’s made of cream and eggs that have been whipped until they‘re light and creamy. … No wonder mousse is considered to be a comfort food and loved by many. In Old French, mousse means “froth,” but also, unappetizingly, “scum.”

If you have heavy cream, some eggs, and flavoring — plus a whisk or an electric mixer — you can make mousse. Most mousses are sweet, flavored with chocolate or fruit or nut butter, but it’s also possible to make a savory mousse, like a salmon mousse (here’s a new idea for my next recipe) or a chicken liver mousse.

Today, I will show you how to make a healthier version of chocolate mousse made from avocado but retains the amazing taste and texture of a real chocolate mousse. This recipe has no eggs, no sugar or diary and it’s gluten free.

Recipe:
2 Small Avocados – 1 avocado for 2 portions
1/3 Cup coconut milk – 2 tbsp + 2 tsp
3 Tbsp Cocoa Powder – 1.5 tbsp
3 Tbsp Honey – 1.5 tbsp
1/4 tsp shredded skin of orange
pinch of sea salt

Cut avocados in half and remove pip and skin.
Place into a food processor with the coconut milk, honey, cocoa powder, and 1/4 tsp of shredded skin from orange.
Blend until the mousse comes together. If you would like a thinner mousse consistency just add more milk. This mousse doesn’t taste like avocado at all.
Serve with your choice of berries or seeds of pomegranate. This mousse should last in the fridge for a few days.
Enjoy!

POTATOE’S NESTS

admin — Thu, 08 Apr 2021 17:28:09 +0000

This recipe came from my childhood, to be exact from my baba Nina. And it still is a perfect fit for my diet in my 50s. It’s not only delicious, which is not good enough for me (if you know me) but healthy too. What I love the most, it’s so easy to put together. And you can use some left over mash potatoes.

Ingredients:

Boiled potatoes-5 (leftovers are great)

Onions -1

Red pepper (hot to taste)

Egg -1

Mayo -1 tbsp (replace with Greek Yogurt with lemon juice for healthier version)

S&P

Flour -3 tbsp (I used buckwheat, which is a gluten free flour, you can use regular flour if you want)

Ground meat – 1 pound (I used ground chicken)

Cheese as much as you want (you can use diary free cheese too)

How to:

1. Cook potatoes and cool down that it won’t absorb too much flour.

2. Mash the potatoes and add the egg, s&p, add flour and mix all together.

3. Chop the onions and mix with ground meat, add spice and 1 tbsp of mayo or Greek Yogurt with lemon juice and mix.

4. Prepare the dish for baking by laying parchment paper and spray it with oil

5. Take 2 tbsp of mashed potatoes and make it flat with a little grove in the middle like a little nest

6. Take meat mixture and add on the top of potato cakes

7. Sprinkle cheese on the top of each potato cake

8. Transfer to the over and bake at 180 Celsius for 20-30 mins

9. The best to eat when hot.

P.S. If you are using regular flour, not buckwheat, use only 2 tbsp.

I hope you are going to try this easy, delicious and pretty healthy recipe that the whole family can enjoy. And I think those nests look divine.
