fruity muesli breakfast

This is today's very healthy breakfast.. Suited very well with this snowy morning..

1 orange (or mandarin)
1/4 pomegranate
1 banana
some muesli (depending on your belly ;) )
2 spoons of crème fraiche
1 teaspoon of finely chopped (or grated) fresh ginger
1/2 cup of fresh orange juice

First mix crème fraiche, orange juice and ginger in the cup. After designing your plate as you want with fruits and muesli, pour the crème fraiche mix on it.  Mine is topped with mom-made jam and chocolate sprinkles.. You are free to design your own ;)

it worths trying other fresh or dryed fruits, like apples, grapes, raisins, dates..

avocado spread, jam and peanut butter..

Moroccan bread spread with peanut butter, avocado puree and mom-made plum and sour cherry jams.. Joined by almonds.. delicious! thank you mama! thank you avocado!

winter tea

when i returned here after a long and warm holiday, i got cold. i did not want to use medicine, and i kept drinking mint tea with lemon and honey. one day my friend's mom suggested me this delicious tea, which is really effective against cold and flue..

1 apple randomly cut in to pieces.
4 glasses of water
to be boiled in a pan for 5 minutes,
then,
a piece of cinnamon root and
4-5 dried cloves
to be added,
after boiling them altogether 5 more minutes,
half a lemon to be cut in to two and added to the pan.
then, heat should be turned off,
now winter tea is ready :)

if your apple is sweet, you will have sweetened tea. otherwise you can add honey.

you don't have to be sick to try this, or it does not have to be winter.

noodles with vegetables and fish

Because it's sunday today, the library is closed at 6 pm. When I was home by bike, it was 6.16. All the time in the library I dreamt about making noodles when I am home. As soon as I entered the house, I put water into the boiler, I washed my hands and face and changed clothes. Then, I chose some vegetables from the fridge for noodle..


5-6 mushrooms
1 yellow paprika
1 onion
2 carrots
2 banana peppers
1 tomato


After putting some oil to a pan I added finely-sliced carrots, then not-finely-sliced onions, then mushrooms, paprika and banana peppers.. Those ones are sliced randomly, not thinly.. They are all cooked gently in the pan with the cover on. After 5-10 minutes I added sliced (peeled) tomato and some spices., like curry, chili pepper and nutmeg powder. When they are being cooked, I got a piece of frozen pollack (koolvis, in Dutch) from the freezer, buttered the toaster, chopped three pieces of garlic. I sprinkled chopped garlics and some black pepper on the fish and put it to the toaster.
By the way, we have a really funny toaster, it does not work with the electricity, it is something like a pan, so we put it on the heat. It is really handy.
Anyways, while the fish is being grilled, I put the boiled water in to another pan and put the noodles in. They are soaked in the water for 10 minutes, then I strained them.


Finally, I mixed those cooked vegetables with noodles, and put the grilled fish on it.. It was delicious!
Overall, it took me less than an hour to make everything ready.. I mean when vegetables are ready, it was 6.36pm. :)
I am really full now,
and happy..


now good luck to me with thesis writing..
