What I have been eating! Lentils, healthy cookies, chickpeas, soup and a lot of fruit , portuguese fruit tastes soooo good!

O que tenho comido em Portugal, lentilhas, grao de bico, bolachinhas saudaveis, muita fruta e sopinha. ❤

soup

For the soup : chop 4 potatoes, 2 big carrots, 2 garlic cloves 1 medium onion, salt, pepper and olive oil. Let it boil for 30 minutes and blend. In the mean time wash and chop 2 types of cabbage ( you can use kale and white cabbage for example), when the soup is blended add the greens and let it cook for a further 15 to 20m (depends on the thickness of the cabbage). I never peel potatoes or carrots just wash them very well.

chickpeas

For the chickpeas makes 4 good size meals : 800g of chickpeas (in a jar, already cooked) and 3 eggs. Boil in water and salt for 25m. Drain and take the skin out of the eggs and chop them. Dice a small onion (white), add chopped parsley and 3 tablespoons of olive oil, adjust the salt and add chili flakes or piri piri or black pepper. Mix everything together (very well until the eggs fall apart and tyhe yolk sticks to the chick peas) Add black olives on top and it’s done.

cookies

Chocolate chip healthy cookies made with almond meal,oats, pieces of dark chocolate, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 of dark mascavado sugar and 2 eggs. #glutenfree #dairyfree
