After I made my quinoa sushi, I still had some avocado, cucumber and spring onions left. I really hate throwing food away that is still perfectly fine to eat, so I decided to make a sushi bowl (as I was too lazy to actually make some more sushi haha).
Sushi might be my favorite food ever. I am in love with the umami flavor of the seaweed, the rich texture of the avocado, the saltiness of the soy sauce and the crunchy sesame seeds, which combined with some sticky white rice makes one hells of a yummy roll of sushi.
For the so-called pizza wedstrijd organized by Jamie Magazine NL, I came up with this awesome pizza recipe. The crust is made from sweet potatoes, and the pizza is topped with soft goat cheese, rosemary, pine nuts, fresh lemon zest and caramelized sweet tomato sauce.
Guys, I have to admit something… My blog might be called That Healthy Kitchen, but sometimes I just really crave unhealthy stuff. Just like most of you I think. So, this afternoon I was really longing a super unhealthy, classic American burger menu, with fries and mayonnaise! Not very healthy, and not really skinny either. Since I had some time on my hands I figured I could also just make my own. This is definitely cheaper than getting a real burger menu at your local fast food restaurant, but also much better for your body and probably tastier too. What else do you want?!
I love having a salad for lunch or dinner, but I am always a bit relentless to actually call it a salad. For me, the word salad makes me think of an unhealthy, skinny, unhappy person, eating dull and tasteless lettuce with a diet coke on the side, slowly just deteriorating into his/her own unhappiness or something.
Okay, that is probably a bit overdone, but you get what I mean right?! I mean, the word salad just kind of has this negative vibe, or for me at least. So, that is also the reason why the title of this blog post isn’t simple salad, but simple veggie bowl. Sounds somewhat less boring in my opinion! Another trick I often use to make my salads veggie bowls more interesting and filling is by adding some whole grains and/or legumes and grilled veggies.
