What I Eat In A Day as a Musician (Plant-Based and Gluten-Free
Here’s a video of how I get ready and What I Eat In a Day (Plant-based and Gluten-Free) being a musician. Have Fun and Keep Fooding!
Plant-Based Lentils
When I got sick a couple of months ago I knew I had to change my diet. Not that I was doing anything wrong. I wasn’t drinking or smoking, I was eating a lot of veggies, walking more than 10k every day (I couldn’t run because of a knee injury). What I mean is, I was what people would consider a healthy person. But the truth is, I really wasn’t. As always, my researcher soul made me look for answers….
Tomatoes are in season. Let’s bake them!
It’s incredible the many things you can do with tomatoes. They are in season now and it’s one of my favourite seasons of all. Actually, I think they should add it to the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Tomato, Fall and Winter. Sounds good. I bring you a recipe that has already become a staple in my kitchen. Any tomato works in this recipe, but I like to mix them in order to get as many shapes as possible. If you are…
Food, in sickness and in health (Hospital IV)
For over a month, I’ve been quite sick. I had to go to the hospital a couple of times and stay there for a while. I had surgery in order to solve the problem, which is something I don’t fancy too much on a Wednesday afternoon, as you can guess. It’s been two weeks since the surgery and I feel much better now. I am walking at a normal pace, I am making my own food again (I…
Koh Lanta (Coruña) celebrates its first birthday
Koh Lanta turned one and I was there to see it. They invited everyone to an informal tasting to celebrate it. If you want a bit of background, here’s the first post I wrote about them. I had a lot of fun, tried old dishes that I already loved and some new flavours that didn’t disappoint me at all. The place was crowded in and outside and the staff rose up to the occasion by wearing traditional Vietnamese hats. I…
Healthy Rice Bowl (Poke style)
I made a non-raw Poke bowl the other day. It’s very comforting, and although everything was cooked and then cool, it felt very warming. Ingredients: 1 cup of brown rice cooked 1/2 sweet potato 2 radishes 1 mackerel fillet or 1/2 cup of tofu in cubes 1 tsp soy sauce 1 tsp mirin 1/2 corn on the cob 1/2 avocado mashed with lemon juice, sea salt and black pepper 1 tsp nut butter (I used cashew) Lime wedges Method: Marinate…
3 uses for Stale Bread: Mastering leftovers
I’ve always been a great fan of reusing food you thought you were going to throw away. Bread is one of those things. There’s many countries where you can buy cheap bread that tastes incredibly, so whenever it gets old, you won’t be using it because it’s not worth it. We can buy baguettes here for less than 0,30€! I mean, that’s crazy. If I was going to make them, the ingredients and electricity would cost more. But stale bread…
Padrón Peppers Jam: The perfect jam for this Christmas cheeseboard.
I made a quick recipe. It only has 3 ingredients, but it is delicious! (Recipe below) Ingredients: 350 gr Padrón Peppers 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar Add some salt if you fancy. Method: Cut the stem of the peppers, but leave the seeds, if some are hot, you want that on your jam 🙂 Wash and rinse Place in a pot with the sugar and vinegar and cover with a lid (or a plate, as…
Another Tapas Contest: Tapas Picadillo in Coruña I
I’ve already told you that I get very anxious when something big related to food happens near me. Tapas Picadillo contest is always a good example. I even get to the point where I hate the contest for existing and making me take such hard decissions. And always the same question in my head…which tapas shall I try this year? This time I decided to take it easy and make a “small” selection of the tapas that I needed to…
Another Tapas Contest: Tapas Picadillo in Coruña II
Hey there again! I’m on the road to Granada today. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Escuchando Elefantes (@escuchando_elefantes) That’s like a 10 hours journey. Although I’ve been driving already, blogging is like the perfect hobbie. Why? Because if I am bored I can talk to you for as long as I want…I don’t mind if you stop readin. I understand. I think I need to talk about the rest of the dishes I tried for the…
