New Year, Old Me…with some upgrades 🙂 🎧

New Year, Old Me…with some upgrades 🙂 🎧

It’s a new year. There’s so many memories worth talking about in 2019, but I’m one of those that really enjoys just thinking about them instead of talking about them. There were some losses too. One of them really shook the end of the year and tinted all the Christmas festivities with a very different tone. But I’ve learnt a lot, and I keep learning. 2019 has been a constant learning experience, and I think I’ve never known my true…

VIDEO: My first courgette in the garden + Vegan Recipe

I started growing vegetables in my garden this year. I’ve never had the green thumb, but lately I feel like I’m better at growing my own food. Maybe it’s because I really enjoy cooking it 🙂 View this post on Instagram In this video I uploaded to Youtube, you’ll see my first attempts on growing courgettes (aka zucchinis) Someone told me they are the easiest to grow, and I can confirm that. The video recipe is below, you can cook…

Banana Spaceships |vegan · plant-based | gluten-free · soy-free

I love this dessert. The good thing about it is that it is so energetic and so healthy that it makes a perfect breakfast, afternoon snack, dessert after lunch…you name it! The base is simple: bananas, peanut butter and cacao nibs. That’s it…the rest is up to your imagination. A couple of weeks ago, Lucía (a friend) and I decided that the best way to keep in touch was to meet for breakfast on Sundays. And I must say, we…

Kero: Perú gets closer to Vigo

Kero: Perú gets closer to Vigo

Once upon a time, Sílvia met Juan Carlos Perret, head chef of Kero. She tried his food in a gastronomic event where she was performing. She told him how she’d love to go to his restaurant but never could because whenever she was in Vigo, it was closed (Sunday is a bitch) He then told her he loved her music too, so they talked for a couple of minutes and there started a very beautiful relationship. Well, actually…not quite that….

Creamy Zucchini Soup |VEGAN·PLANT-BASED·GLUTEN & SOY-FREE|

My mum used to make a zucchini soup recipe that I loved. I still do, so I cook it that way almost every time I make zucchini soup. But this time I really wanted to do a different zucchini soup. Because, you all know that feeling of realizing you’ve been making the same stuff over and over again. Although you like making the same things, you also crave that feeling of going out of the habit and doing something different….

A year after the car crash: Fear, Gratitude and What We Ate.

A year after the car crash: Fear, Gratitude and What We Ate.

A year ago I was involved in a car accident. It was very scary mainly for three reasons: 1) It happened in France and I was supposed to arrive in London for our tour the next day. 2) Carlos tried to avoid the car from crashing four times, but the ice made it impossible to stay on the road. 3) The car got out of the road and turned on one side, making it incredibly difficult to get out of…

Advent Calendar: 1 habit a day #adventhabits

Advent Calendar: 1 habit a day #adventhabits

I’ve read a lot about how easy it is to do something if you form a habit. That’s why I hate new year’s resolutions done in January. I have a lot of resolutions, but I don’t feel like the first day of the year is going to be the best day to start. Why? Well, you probably stayed up later than usual, you might be hungover if you drink alcohol and if you are, like most people, a food lover…you’ve…

Plant-based vs Vegan

Plant-based vs Vegan

This is going to be a long post. I know that for some of you plant-based means vegan (aka products that don’t harm any animal) But what does vegan mean to you? Apparently every word means something different for everyone these days. It’s OK. I understand the food industry is trying to bring up new terms in order to get more people happy. Vegan has becom e biased for some people and plant-based seems to be a good replacement. Although…
