Thursday, February 01, 2018

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2018 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




Refreshingly crunchy Romaine lettuce leaves, sweet tangy blood oranges, and fennel bulb with its unique mildly licorice-like flavour are topped with honey roasted macadamia nuts and crispy bacon bits, then dressed with black cumin oil and lemon juice.

  • 4 Blood oranges
  • 1 Fennel bulb, fronds reserved, trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 50 g Bacon, finely diced
  • 2 Baby romaine salad, separated
  • 150 g Honey roasted macadamia nuts
  • 1 tbsp Black cumin oil
  • 1 tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  1. Peel and cut blood oranges into rounds or wedges. Set aside.
  2. Strip the fronds from the stalks and finely slice the fennel bulb lengthways. Reserve the fronds for the garnish.
  3. In a heavy large non-stick skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat for about 10 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and cool slightly.
  4. Separate the romaine salad leaves and arrange them in a serving platter. Scatter the fennel slices and top with blood orange, bacon bits and macadamia nuts.
  5. Drizzle over the black cumin oil and lemon juice, then season. Garnish with the reserved fronds and serve.

Create an amazing side dish with this simple carrot salad with blue cheese and fresh herbs.

  • 2 Garlic cloves, minced
  • Juice and zest of 1 organic lemon

  • Sea salt to taste
  • Fresh herbs chopped
  • 120 g Roquefort
  1. With a vegetable peeler, thinly slice the carrots into long ribbons and place into a bowl.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet. Add in the Harissa and minced garlic. Stir until fragrant. Add the lemon juice, maple syrup and salt and fry for another minute.
  3. Pour the Harissa mixture over the carrots and toss well. Add the chopped herbs and Roquefort cheese. Allow to stand for 30 minutes and serve.

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2018 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Use the natural sweetness of very ripe bananas to sweeten this delicious banana bread. It's perfect for those who are avoiding refined sugar. The thick streusel topping, lightly sweetened with coconut sugar, is an integral part of the banana bread, and provides a flavourful crunchy texture, so don't skip it.

Streusel ToppingBatter
  • 150 g Whole spelt flour
  • 80 g Coconut sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

  • 150 g Whole spelt flour
  • 100 g Almond flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 1/4 tsp Nutmeg powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 100 g Raisins or chocolate chips
  1. Combine flour, coconut sugar, and pinch of salt in a bowl. Add in vanilla and butter. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Store in the fridge until ready for use.
  2. Preheat oven to 190C/375F. Lightly grease a 30-cm loaf pan and line with baking paper.
  3. In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas and add in pumpkin seed oil, yoghurt, eggs and vanilla extract. Stir to combine. Sift in spelt flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt. Stir to combine. Fold in raisins or chocolate chips.

Create a simple, healthy and flavourful lunch with these rice paper rolls which are low-cal, low-fat and gluten-free. Use the roasted chicken and cooked tri-coloured quinoa leftovers to make this time-saving, delicious meal.

  • 100 g Tri-coloured quinoa, rinsed
  • 200 ml Water
  • 1 tsp Gluten free tamari plus extra to serve
  • 10 Rice paper sheets

  • 1 Sweet pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 Fresh red chilli, thinly sliced diagonally

  2. Soak a sheet of rice paper wrapper in hot water for 10-20 seconds. Transfer to a clean tea towel to absorb excess water. Place a little of the quinoa in the middle of the rice paper. Top with sliced chicken, sweet pepper, chilli and fresh herb leaves.
  3. Roll up firmly to enclose the filling. Cover with a slightly damp cloth to preven drying out. Repeat with remaining sheets. Continue with remaining rice paper and fillings. Serve with extra tamari, if desired.
