I love mixing it up on a weekend and switching my regular cereal breakfast out for something more indulgent. This smoothie feels almost as indulgent as french toast, but it is slightly healthier (sugars – I know!) and the best part is that you can make it from things you likely already have either in the fridge or freezer. This makes it a great way to get in your five now that we are all trying to go the shops less frequently. The handheld blender I received as a housewarming gift last year has also revolutionized my smoothie game – leaving me with much less dishes to do.
My husband and I like this so much that we included this in our meal lineup almost every week during the summer and now that it has cooled down I still find myself craving it every now and again. This is the result of researching falafels before our Paris trip (can you believe we didn’t even know what they were!?) and trying to create something similar looking with what we had on hand. So not very authentic and actually much closer to Greek gyros. The best part though? One batch will serve about four adults and you might even have a little leftovers for lunch.
Looking for something fun and easy to do this Easter? I’ve got you covered with the ultimate in sweet treats – Easter egg chocolate bark! This is a great way to use up the last bit of Easter candies or, as was the case for me, a good excuse to stock up on some of your favourites! I’d like to say that this recipe is fool proof, but unfortunately you do run the very real risk of finishing the ingredients off before they make their way into the melted chocolate! If you managed to keep your taste buds under control though, you’re good to go! I would venture to say that this is even a good one to keep the kiddo’s busy (under supervision of course!) and of course you can customise this to include some of your personal favourites, these just happen to be mine.
