clean chili con carne sauce



ingredients (serves 3-4):

250g organic ground meat
1/2 red onion, diced
1 can chopped / sieved tomatoes
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 big tomato, diced
1 tsp sambal oelek
50g sweet corn (i used naturally sweetened canned corn)
50g kidney beans (i used unsweetened organic canned beans)
50-80ml boiling water
some coconut oil
some chives
salt, pepper, garlic and spicy paprika to taste

directions:

in a large pan gently roast the onion and ground meat in some coconut oil. 
then add 50ml boiling water and the chopped / sieved tomatoes, tomato paste, the diced fresh tomato and sambal oelek. stir well.
now incorporate the corn and beans and let cook for about 5 minutes on medium heat. if it seems too thick you might wanna add more boiling water but that's up to you. :)

i seasoned my chili con carne with chives, salt, black pepper, lots of garlic and lots of spicy paprika but you can do as you like. :)

serve with wholemeal rice or noodles and ENJOY!

carrot potato soup [vegan]



ingredients (serves 2):

6-8 medium to large carrots, peeled and cut in slices
1/2 small red onion, cut into small dice or slices
a handful of potatoes, diced
500ml organic vegetable stock
2 tsp coconutoil
some garlic (i used frozen garlic)
some chives
salt, pepper, ginger and paprika to taste

directions:

in two small pots, bring salted water to boil and cook diced potatoes and carrot slices until soft and mushy.
meanwhile, in a bigger pot, heat up the coconut oil and fry the onion.

when they potatoes and carrots are ready just add them to the onions and mash everything. you might wanna use a blender if you like your soup to be smooth and without lumps. otherwise just use a fork. :)

now, add some of the vegetable stock. don't add all of it at once as you might not need it all. Incorporate a small amount first to see how liquid and smooth the soup gets. Then you can add more if you like. :)
eventually just add the garlic, chives and taste with all the spices you like. I used salt, pepper, ginger and spicy paprika.

let cook for about 5-10 minutes on low heat.

serve plain (VEGAN) or - like I did -  with a coconut oil fried egg and spinach. :)
ENJOY!

clean berry cheesecake

2 small freerange eggs
125g lowfat curd (magerquark)
1/2 tsp lemon juice
30g spelt semolina
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 strawberry, diced

a handful of fresh blueberries


optional: 2 tbsp raw cane sugar, if you like it sweet



directions:

preheat your convection oven to 170°C.
in a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then add the curd, lemon juice and spelt semolina and whisk togther.
add the maple syrup (and the optional cane sugar) and stir well.
now prepare a baking dish (i used a heart shaped one <3) by greasing it with a little melted coconut oil and pour in the batter.
add the blueberries and strawberry dice and bake for about 20-25 minutes (I suggest using the toothpick test).

let the cheesecake sit and cool completely before serving.
ENJOY!
