Asian Stir-Fry, Brussels Sprouts and 2 Minute Chocolate Cake
Yesterday I had some Asian Stir-Fry my mom made for Dinner.
And I had Paulinas Chocolate Cake for Dessert.
I added crushed cashews to the batter and had 3 layers of sliced banana. I was out of oil and my applesauce had gone bad so I used apple apricot sauce instead. Not a good decision because it tasted pretty much just like that and maple syrup. And I think using carob powder didn’t help to save anything either.
I’ll try it again with the right ingredients the next time, because honestly – who doesn’t dream of cake that can be devoured after 2 minutes in the microwave?
And here’s a picture of Brussels Sprouts with nutmeg and some mustard for dipping from few days ago. I borrowed my dads fisheye lense as you can see =p
Oatmeal-Carob Pudding for Dinner
I am so full! This is the first time I had oatmeal pudding and it is so filling, I couldn’t even finish the whole bowl. I tried, because it’s yumm. But I just couldn’t swallow any more, I look like 4 months pregnant already =p
I made Ruby Red Vegans Oatmeal-Carob Pudding. I got to use the carob powder I bought a few weeks ago for the first time, yay! Although when I opened the box I was like „Puh…“, because it smelled exactly like the stuff my sister used to feed her bunny back when we were kids. But it tasted nothing like it smelled, I really like it.
I topped it with 1/2 mashed banana (+ 1 tsp. agave syrup) and sliced the other half along with a strawberry.
Thumbs up, Ruby & Katie!
What I learned? That oatmeal probably really is the perfect breakfast, because it’s filling, it’s healthy and one can add nuts, seeds or fruit to make it even healthier.
