Kiwi Strawberry Smoothie

Kiwi Strawberry Smoothie Raw Vegan Gluten Free

I made a lot of smoothies and blended soups this week after Athanasia’s wisdom tooth extraction. It’s very easy, even easier than cooking and much quicker thanks to our Vitamix (click here in North America or click here in Europe). One of the days this week I made this kiwi strawberry smoothie and we both loved it very much! This smoothie is raw vegan and gluten-free of course.

Grandma’s Okras

Grandma’s Okras

I was trying out a different way to cook okras, in the oven and with a tendency to be crispy like a friend of mine likes them. However, I accidentally stumbled upon a flavor of my childhood- this was exactly how my grandma used to make them for us!! The scents and the flavors of our memories never fail to bring us back 🙂 This is how I re-created my Grandma’s okras… Continue reading Grandma’s Okras
