afternoon tea in london

 
 
Hyatt Regency Hotel London
 
Decided to spend a few days in London to enjoy the christmas mood and what`s a visit to London without having a traditional afternoon tea! And ofcourse, Ritz Carlton would be the best to pick out of all the hotels but obviously making or trying to book a table three days before departure wasn`t an option ofcourse..FULL! Realizing that our hotel was pretty close to the Hyatt Regency hotel my choice was made very quickly. The traditional afternoon tea was served with a glass of champagne and very christmassy.
 
Love how my clutch looks like some kind of a fairytale book, it fits great with the outfit and the place.

vegan taco salad

 

 
I really love taco rice and taco salad and thought if I coudn`t make a vegan version of it.. Here it is! It`s very easy to make and it tastes good and it`s really healthy!
 
Vegan Taco Salad Recipe
 
Put some green leaves (any green salad you like) on the plate. Put some chopped onions, soy meat and salsa in a pan and stir and add it on the plate when it`s ready cooked. Use a ripe avocado to make the guacamole. Add garlic, some fresh squeezed lemon juice, chopped tomato and season it with salt and pepper. The taco salad is now ready and to make it perfect, you can make your own healthy nacho chips as well!
 
Vegan Nacho Chips Recipe
 
Add some hot water to the quinoa and wait until it absorbs the water. Add some dried herbs, (it can be any kind or any dried herbs you have in your kitchen) I used dried oregano! Add some organic flour to it and make it flat to cut it into triangles. Put it in the oven until they are crispy. Stick them into the salad before you serve it and VOILA! It`s that simple and so good. Enjoy!

green smoothie

 
 
 
 
 
I started not eating meat for more than 1,5 years now and I must say I don`t really miss it either. I like to eat clean and green. I`m now much more aware of what I really eat and what my body gets inside. Nowadays there are more organic supermarkets and large supermarkets offer more meat substitutes which gives vegetarians and vegans more variety and opportunities to cook ant eat.
 
This is my version of the green smoothie.

It`s not on the picture but I wanted to add a banana too but I didn`t have bananas at home, so I also added soy milk with banana flavor. This will add a sweet taste to the smoothie. Enjoy!

halloween treats

 

Trick or Treat
 
Halloween is over now and a lot more events are coming these months. Few weeks ago I experimented with the `ombre nails` again and decided to go for a halloween version. The colors and prints, isn`t it freaking cute?? I like making macarons and made a halloween version of Mickey this time.


All my friends know that I love to cook, well, more like a baking addict! I love making and creating things which look impossible at first sight, it`s like a big challenge wether it will turn out like you expected..very exciting! I decided to invite my friends for a halloween high-tea party. Everything is H.O.M.E.M.A.D.E.
