Quick
Avocado and Brazil Nut Smoothie
This smoothie is very filling, almost like a full meal. It is packed with fibre, protein, vitamins A, C and E, calcium and healthy, mono-unsaturated fats.
Orange and Cinnamon Tea
I love the scent of oranges and cinnamon. There is something very soothing about that lovely combination of sweet and spicy.
Orange, Carrot and Ginger Juice
This is a lovely juice and one you could easily buy (overpriced, mind you) in a juice bar or a health food store as it is a classic combination.
Pineapple Smoothie
This is an excellent smoothie for the digestive system since pineapples contain bromelain, an enzyme that breaks down proteins and is very good for your stomach.
Pineapple and Blueberry Smoothie
I guess you didn't think of putting pineapples and blueberries together in a drink did you? It is actually a lovely combination and the smoothie is quite easy to make.
Couscous Cake with Fruits
I got this recipe from Grænn kostur (Green Option), my favourite vegetarian restaurant in Iceland. Definitely give the place a try if you ever are in Reykjavík. Fantastic food.
Apple and Walnut Cake
This cake is very heart friendly and good for you since it contains omega 3 fatty acids, a special type of protective fat the body can not manufacture.
A Simple Chocolate Cake
I don't eat "normal" cakes and haven't done so since I was 12 years old. For about 15 years I didn't taste anything sweet apart from fruits (imagine how crazy my friends found me).
Chocolate and Coconut Treats
These are very simple to make and no chopping is required, just melting and combining. These treats are excellent if you are expecting guests in one hour as they are so quick to prepare.
Sesame and Maple Syrup Treats
These are quick to make although they require some dexterity unless you use small cake moulds.
