The mission to be healthy, clean eating and food prep for a clean diet

I am on a mission. Sounds daft but I want to loose 5kg. Doesn't everyone? So I made this crazy salad and juice combo and it was surprising delicious. And dairy and gluten free! Vegan friendly yay. I am cutting back to a vegan diet although it is tres difficult considering I love dumplings so much.

Vegan salad recipe
1 can chickpeas, drained
Cherry tomatoes
Few thin slices of Spanish onion
Green beans, halved
Parsley
Rocket

Dressing
1/2 tsp Seeded mustard
1/2 tsp Capers
4 Black olives, finely chopped
2 tsp kalamata balsamic
3 tsp olive oil
1 tsp water
Salt and pepper

Mix and shake dressing then pour over salad. I chilled overnight and it was perfect. Not soggy!

Juice
Celery
Parsley
Mint
Spinach
Pineapple
Pear
Apple
Lime
Ginger

Such a tasty meal and I was full till dinner!

Dairy free brownie recipe that will blow your mind... I can't believe it's not cow

So I just found out recently that I can't eat dairy. Such a relief. I had been in pain for months and had no idea why. I looked at my diet and slowly started to cancel down my list of possible suspects. I narrowed it down to either fructose or dairy (Internet self diagnosis told me I had ovarian cancer = the Internet is not a doctor, do not try this at home) anyway I am so grateful that it is something I can manage and not something I need to take a drug for. However I am missing my chocolate. It is devastating in fact. No cake, cupcakes, biscuits, scones or pastry is very upsetting. Until I found this Jamie Oliver's "dairy" free brownies (which clearly have butter in the recipe but I just substituted for nuttelex. Let me say these are amazing! Who needs dairy anyway pffffffft....

Happy Tuesday lovers xxxxxx
