🙌🏻Raspberry loaf cake recipe 🙌🏻

Version 10 of my 10 seconds salad 😋😋😋 so delicious, simple to make and quick. I keep changing ingredients depending on what’s in the fridge but 3 main ingredients keeping the same:
- 1/2 broccoli
- 3/4 pepper (any colour)
- 1 apple
Then add another 3-4 fist size veg portions: this time it was red cabbage, spinach and cucumber but I’ve used avocado, courgette, tomato, lettuce, red onion before and it’s always so delicious. 🥰 Add 3 tbsp of walnuts or pumpkin seeds for texture.
Chop in your blender for 10 seconds. Add dressing: 1 tbsp olive oil, ACV, mustard, honey and salt & pepper to taste. Serve with protein of your choice! Yum yum yum !

So desperate for the summer so I’ve decided to find it on my plate 😁
For this side salad I sliced a cucumber, crunchy romaine lettuce and radish. I sprinkled it with chopped dill, red onion and feta (not on this picture). I also drizzled it with an ACV and olive oil. So delicious! 😋

🥬 Let’s talk cabbage 🥬

This high in fibre, Vit C, K and folate vegetable is one of the cheapest and most versatile 😋

It is often the smell of cooking cabbage, that puts people off but this is actually caused by overcooking. Keep cooking time to minimum and don’t lose those precious vitamins.

Here are 6 ways to turn cabbage into something special:
▫️Coleslaw▫️ thinly slice red and white cabbage, add some carrot and beetroot, olive oil and lemon juice then sprinkle with black&white sesame seeds
▫️Steamed leaves▫️of Savoy cabbage and use as wraps for filling of your choice
▫️Braised▫️cabbage served with toasted hazelnuts and drizzle of olive/avocado oil
▫️Stir fry▫️slice into 1 cm strips and fry with chorizo and garlic
▫️Pickle▫️ in the form of kimchi or sauerkraut to help boost gut bacteria
▫️Savoy cabbage pasta▫️my favourite pasta recipe - so delicious 😋 I’ll save this one for another day 🧐 keep your eyes open for this recipe
