PURPLE POTATO RICE RAMEN - Turmeric Curry Soup Oo PURPLE POTATO RICE RAMEN - Turmeric Curry Soup Oooh child! My tummy is still having a party while I post this. I found another delicious ramen brand: @lotusfoods πŸ™ŒπŸ» This ramen is made with organic brown rice which makes it gluten free. It requires 4 minutes cooking time in a pot on the stove top. I added fresh avo and some coriander to garnish. But can I tell you, I never finish the soup part of the ramen. Well, today was a different day. And with the cooler weather we're experiencing here in the Middle East at the moment, this bowl of ramen with it's turmeric curry soup was SO comforting.

As promised, CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA MUFFINS (plant- As promised, CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA MUFFINS (plant-based) can now be seen on the blog 🀭 These muffins are SO easy to make and whilst absolutely scrumptious they also happen to be egg-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and sugar-free 🀭🀭 Seriously, when I realised how powerful ripe bananas actually are, I asked myself, why do people bother with unnecessary ingredients like eggs in something like a banana bread or -muffin? Less is more, my friends. Less is more.

HAPPY 1ST OF OCTOBER 🎊 Did you know October wa HAPPY 1ST OF OCTOBER 🎊 Did you know October was originally the 8th month of the year? The word October is derived from the Latin word, Octo, which means 8. The number 8 also speaks of a new beginning and with all that has happened this 2020 thus far, I thought I'd bring some newness on here today ☺️ I have been going through quite a few dairy-free yogurt options - a few that I have (and still) love and a few I would never buy (after reading the ingredients). But this raspberry @koko_coconutuk has seriously stolen my heart! It is silky smooth with bits of ripe fruit in it which I absolutely love. And I love that it has added calcium and vitamins D2 and B12. Another thing I love about this product is that even though it is made with coconut milk, the coconut flavour is not overbearing πŸ™ŒπŸ» I enjoyed this with my homemade granola (recipe on the blog).

πŸ—£οΈ ATTWF REVIEWS Another one πŸ‘€ An absolute πŸ—£οΈ ATTWF REVIEWS Another one πŸ‘€ An absolute goodie though! Many of you asked me about these plant-based burgers last week. I am not being paid to say this, but these @beyondmeat plant-based patties are seriously the best I've ever had! It's thick and juicy and makes me miss πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦so much; you know we love to braai! And we do it goooood. And no, these patties are not made of soy like so many other plant-based products; it's made of pea protein πŸ™ŒπŸ» So, last night I made another bun-free burger: a bed of spinach and diced cucumber drizzled with my homemade honey and mustard dressing, my homemade sauerkraut for added crunch, a slice of @violife_foods cheddar cheese, my grilled plant-based pattie, fresh avo and tomato, and finally, more honey and mustard dressing 😍 Okay, now it's your turn. I promise you won't be disappointed. Yes, I am speaking to you too meat lovers πŸ€— PS I believe this brand is in SA too. . . . . . . #burger #burgernight #beyondmeat #meatfreemeals #meatfree #plantbased #peaprotein #avocado #plantbasedliving #meatfreemonday #vegan #bunlessburger #sauerkraut #fermentedfoods #lockdownfood #eatmoreplants #soyfree #glutenfree #instaeats #sustainableliving #eatup #kidfriendlyfood #kidfriendly #braai #southafricanfoodies #ilovefood #foodporn #komonsbraai #andthentherewasfood #andthentherewasfoodreviews
