Cauliflower crust

As some of you have been asking for the cauliflower crust recipe, I decided to write it down; I hope this helps.

1) These are the ingredients I used: cauliflower, eggs, carrots and parsley. Of course you can skip the carrots or the parsley or even add other things.
2) Shred the cauliflower, watch out for your fingers, it might hurt a little.
3) Shred your carrots and add them.
4) Cut the parsley to tiny pieces, add eggs, salt and pepper.
5) Mix everything well!
6) Get your pan and heat up some oil – I used olive oil.
7) Fill the mixture inside of the pan, disperse it a little and put the top back on the pan.
8) Wait about 8 minutes. As long as your cauliflower crust roasts, you can make a nice cup of tea and cut all other ingre
dients that you want to put on top of your crust, be creative, everything is possible and absolutely delicious!

9) Flip your crust -  It might be difficult and about to break – try to use a plate to flip it. Once you’ve managed this, let it roast on the other side for some more minutes.
10) Now decorate it with anything you want and enjoy this healthy heaven!

Having fun with fundido 

In Spanish, “fundido” translates to “molten”, which is a perfect word to describe this cheesy appetizer. Simmering on the stove it bubbled like lava. From cast iron skillet to chip it was so smooth and stringy we could stretch it a full 18-inches! It’s a warm, gooey treat that’s perfect for a wet, holiday night in Portland, Oregon.

Queso fundido, a recipe from Bon Appétit magazine.

Ingredients:

  • 1 small tomato, chopped
  • 1 serrano chile, seeded, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
  • Kosher salt
  • 8 ounces coarsely grated mild yellow cheddar
  • 8 ounces coarsely grated Monterey Jack
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 4-ounce link fresh chorizo or hot Italian sausage, casing removed
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 1/2 cup lager
  • Tortilla chips

Directions:

Mix tomato, chile, and oregano in a small bowl. Season with salt; let salsa stand for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, toss both cheeses with flour in a medium bowl. Cook chorizo in a medium saucepan over medium heat, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until it begins to render, about 1 minute. Add onion and continue cooking until chorizo is cooked and onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Transfer chorizo mixture to a small bowl; return saucepan to heat. Add beer; simmer, stirring occasionally and scraping up any browned bits. Whisking constantly, add cheese mixture a 1/4-cupful at a time, allowing it to become blended and smooth between additions. Stir in chorizo mixture. Using a slotted spoon, spoon salsa over queso. Serve in skillet with a basket of tortilla chips on the side.

Do ahead: Queso can be made 30 minutes ahead. Let stand at room temperature. To reheat, warm skillet with queso fundido over medium heat; stir until melted and bubbly.

Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal W/ Hazelnuts & Flax

undressedskeleton:

A good workout depends on your pre-workout fuel. If you want good results, your body needs supplies to get there. My energy level is always low, with no motivation to move if I don’t feed it right. The more energy you provide your body the more energy you’ll have to stay motivated to workout. I also believe that food choices should be cohesive with your type of workouts. Some workouts like yoga require no food at all.  The oatmeal recipe I have here is my ideal choice for days spent running or high cardio routines. Carbs that are “slow burning” help control your blood sugar levels preventing you from energy crashes in the middle of workouts.

Oatmeal is full of fiber, keeping your energy levels constant during workouts. Oatmeal contains B vitamins that help with converting those carbs into energy.  My doctor also told me that oatmeal reduces the level of body stress. Before choosing peanut butter my pick would be yogurt or egg whites, but it’s vegan month so I chose peanut butter and hazelnuts for my protein. If you are trying to lose weight, peanut butter wouldn’t be my first choice before a workout but it all depends on your type of workout. I added 1 Tbsp of ground flax seed because of the fiber content. Flax also helps with blood sugar levels.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 Cup Whole Grain Oats
  • 1/3 Cup Water
  • 1 Tbsp Flax Seed (Ground)
  • 1 Medium Banana
  • 1 Large Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
  • 1 Tsp Hazelnuts

Directions:

  1. Microwave flax, water and oatmeal for 60 seconds in microwave or until thick. 
  2. Slice banana and add to oatmeal
  3. Top with peanut butter and hazelnuts
