Jason Vale’s Minty Sunshine, Tahini Beaney, and Veggie Power, all freshly juiced and blended! Except for the pink intruder.

Nevertheless in comparison to our fresh juices it was the perfect proof that the difference fresh versus pasteurized is enormous. Minty Sunshine 2 oranges 3 carrots 1-2 cm chunk root ginger 4 sprigs fresh mint a small handful ice cubes Juice all ingredients. Pour […]
Since I learned how to make almond milk I use it to make smoothies, to put it into my chai, for cooking and baking and to soak my overnight muesli in. The taste is light and crisp and the texture is amazingly creamy. From a health perspective it’s low in fat and calories but high in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. It contains vitamins and minerals such as copper, zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, phosphorus, […]

So two irresistible flavours melt together. potato-cucumber soup 1 tablespoon olive oil or ghee 1kg potatoes, peeled and diced 1 large, fresh cucumber, peeled, seeds removed and diced 1 onion, chopped 1 spring onion, thinly sliced vegetable stock, enough […]
Today I won’t supply you with an ingredient list because it’s entirely up to your taste buds which vegetables you choose for this simple dish. Simply cut them into bits of similar thickness (so that everything is ready at the same time), drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper and chuck onto an oven pan in eye pleasing constellations. 200°C and about 20 minutes should do the trick. We had it with a goat camembert, which […]
Homemade Guacamole is an alltime favourite for summer days. It is super easy and fast to make, we serve it as a light lunch, as snack or as a dip for a barbecue.
