Fresh Sardines with Rice, Melon and Salad

Oki, rice, especially white rice does not belong to the healthy kitchen....but the combination was great nevertheless :-)

Veggie boat :-)

Chicory for the "boats", fill them with sliced carrots, avocados, tomatoes, curcumbers, coriander and for the amazing tasty sauce you take: chopped mild onions, olive-sesam-and coconut oil, honey, a tiny little bit of almondmilk, some cinnamon, salt, pepper...uuach...its really yummy!

Best Green Smoothie Ever :-)

So far this was my best green smoothie ever. With chard, coriander, celery leaves, banana, apple, kiwi aaand: freshly picked lime-blossoms....tooooo GOOD!

Carrot + Chard Salad

 
Carrots with chard, olive oil, coconut oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper. Its more than simple - but we just love it this way :-)

Lime-tree blossom tea

Oohhh the last weeks Marseille was smelling like a sweet dream. It was soo amazing! Lime-tree blossoms smell like a wonderful mixture of curcumber and rock melon - at least in my nose ;-)
And finally I found some trees in a parc with reachable branches...

Lentil Salad with eggs

Funny, this dish reminds me food pictures from the 70ies ;-)
Beluga lentils with onions, oil and vinegar, salt and pepper (I cooked them with too much water...),
add some tomatoes, eggs, and yes I loove them: sardines, sprinkle some sliced spring onions.
Bon appetit.

Carrot Salad

Classical version: carrots, celery stalks and leaves, curcumber, apple, salt, pepper, lemon juice, olive oil :-)

Green Salad with Ananas

Like one can see in my blog: I love to keep it simple. So this salad is just made out of:
green salad, a quarter of an ananas, coriander, sesam seeds, lemon juice, coconut oil, salt, pepper - done :-) This salad is as simple as refreshing...

Mango "Chocolate"

Mix coconut oil, grounded lin seeds, raw cacao powder, add a bit agave syrop, pour on baking paper. Sprinkle little pieces of fresh mango and some thinny sliced mint leaves. Put in the fridge for 30 minutes....and then.....hmmmm...

Very quick and easy gluten-free noodle salad

Sometimes there is not much time to enjoy preparing food...(and sometimes I need noodles).
I take gluten-free noodles. Add some chopped red onions, a lot of coriander, a can sardines in olive oil, some extra olive oil, lemon juice (!!!) salt, pepper. Its simple but yummy. And more quick is not possible...

Quinoa Salad

Its so warm in Marseille....so this salad is perfect because its very refreshing. Quinoa (cold) and tomatoes, red onions, spring onions, parsley, lemon juice, apple-vinegar, olive oil, salt pepper....done :-)

Lentil Salad with warm potatoes

I used green lentils and my favorite ones: Beluga lentils. I sliced spring onions, chopped parsley while the potatoes were cooking. For the vinaigrette I used olive oil, a loOot of apple-vinegar, some lemon juice, salt, pepper, chopped two toes of garlic and very small chopped "Maggi" leaves (important for the taste!).
Mix the cold lentils with vinaigrette and after fold in the still warm potatoes. On top I added some Tamari sauce.

Raw Icy Comfit......

Oh this is soooooooooooooo good (and sooo healthy!)!!! It melts on your tongue....
I just put some lin + sesam seeds in the foodprocessor and mixed them with two big spoons of Dr. Georg's Coconut oil, 1 big spoon of raw cacao and a tiiny bit agave-syrop....put the mixture on baking paper, into the fridge for 15 minutes.....and enjoy! 
But this is just the simple base.....try as well to add some berries, matcha or mint leaves....must be a dream!

"Fève" (broad beans) with Quinoa and black lens and green salad with avocado

oh, this was very tasty and satisfying!

Found this "fève" beans today at the bio market - I've never seen them fresh actually, just always dried....

amazingly big this "fève" beans....I can remember as a child I loOoved soup made with this beans, in german  called "Saubohne"....so but this is the first time I enjoyed them fresh :-)

Dr. Fuhrman's EAT TO LIVE - a life saving book!!

Well, I did not buy this book for loosing weight! I bought it for my parents. They are not fat at all but they take a lot of meds where I am sure they could at least minimise them with more vegetables, especially raw vegetables - and NO coffee, cakes, meat, pasta and white bread. I just wanted to have more arguments ;-) So, yesterday it arrived! When I started to read (and Im still reading) Fuhrmans words I thougth: hey, this is e x a c t l y what I live!!! Just in the oil-point I dont agree with him. Our brain needs fat! Our organism needs fat as well to get all the nutritions out of the veggies. Anyway, I am not able to eat megabig portions of salad or other raw veggies - so I need oil the get enough calories, otherwise I would get to skinny.
As well I can say that this book is really made for the burger-fries-donat-cookies-eating american who lost all ideas about what the meaning of food could be.
So this book is written for another planet! But - and here this book is so amazingly important and LIFE SAVING for everybody who is suffering from several deseases or wants to prevent them: Fuhrman explains so simple and wonderful the connection between heart-deseases, diabetes etc., the development of cancer and FOOD!!
My parents are living in germany, Berlin so I write them mails and call them several times to tell them the message and I congure them to give this way of eating a try for about 4 weeks.
I actually tryed already before reading Fuhrman's book to make them eating healthier. There is hope that they are open - because since some weeks they have a green smoothie every morning. This is a good base, a good start for more.
And now I have even better arguments and examples! :-)
Thank you Dr. Fuhrman!!

Lin seeds with avocado and banana

okay, its really not a very pretty meal ;-) I put it here already once, but more like a dessert.
This time I put much more lin seeds like 50 grams in the food-processor, added 2 bananas, 1 avocado and lots of lemon juice and some verveine leaves. Its a perfect dish for two persons on a lazy day. I unfortunately had no berries to make it more pretty ;-)

Black Beluga Lens with Tomatosalad

Today I mixed cooked with raw food. Tomatosalad with Tofu, Onions, fresh Thyme and a vinaigrette plus Beluga lens with coriander, some soysauce and butter. I really like this colourmix...

Green Smoothie

Like every day: a biig green smoothie! This time with broccoli leaves, spinace, coriander, 2 bananas, 1 apple, juice of half a lemon, water..... :-)
And you know what?? I dont have a VITAMIX.......!! My blender was around 80 Euro. He is just doing a fine work and he is even not so loud! His name is: Philips HR2096/00 Avance (with very smart blades!!! - I rarely need the tamper). Probably he wont get the age like a Vitamix - but shall I wait to drink Smoothies till I can/want to efford him? I think this would be pretty stupid.

day off.....

Today we were strolling through Marseille for hours and suddenly I had such a desire for junk!
So I had alltogether an onion quiche, a baguette with Merguez, two beer, after a cake (unfortunately a bad one) and two coffee.
And believe it or not: I enjoyed it! Or better, we enjoyed it. Franck had the same. And apart of the cake everthing was just great. I actually dont like white bread at all - today I loved it. But half an hour later I got the bill (of course...) - I just felt weird around my stomac and my head...
Day off makes fun - and shows you again what your body really likes: healthy food - and no junk.
For dinner we made raw noodles with raw tomatosauce to be nice to our bodies again ;-)
