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…
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…
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…
I know, cacao and matcha, right? I’ve already caught your attention. I’ve made a video of the recipe. To know the exact quantities, keep scrolling. It was first featured in my first “What I Eat In a Day as a Musician” that you can also find here: Of course, some of you asked me for the recipe and I thought I’d be a better person if I shared it 🙂 I’m feeling kinder already. You’re welcome. I’m planning on making…
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…
I made Vegan chocolate spread to celebrate World Nutella Day. Don’t get me wrong…it doesn’t taste like Nutella, that wasn’t my intention. I wanted to make something inspired by Nutella. Nevertheless, f you change the cashews for hazelnuts, it will remind you to the real thing. I just found it interesting to make a cashew and chocolate spread for the first time. I love the result, and I’ve been eating it all day. Ingredients (makes a small batch): 65…
Ooops! I did it again! I went to Mijo Minibar and it was, as expected, delicious. Carlos and I decided to go do some busking in Vigo. We always love spending time there. After a morning playing in Ourense, we head towards Vigo in order to grab something to eat. Carlos suggested Mijo and I couldn’t say no. With our drinks came a glass of complementary olives and pickles, as well as some hummus. I was very glad about the…
I love Medieval fairs, Renaissance fairs or any other themed fair that is supposed to be a recreation of another period of time I haven’t been able to live. Of course, I appreciate them more when they are so well done that you feel awful for not being dressed up. That is not the case of the one I’ll be talking about in this post. I am fascinated by how they sell anything that is handmade (not always, though) even…
On Friday we had a great gig at La Fábrica de Chocolate in Vigo. Well, I say great, but appart from that it was kind of mental. Two people fainted at the beginning, and it was kind of difficult to stay concentrated. After the gig I could talk to Ana, one of them, and she was feeling better. I hope Dani, the other guy, feels OK now because I couldn’t talk to him after the show. Some made jokes comparing…
Oh, St Valentine’s day…a special occasion for loving people and indulging on chocolate! What? Isn’t that the point of celebrating love, eating chocolate? Well, I’m not a sweet tooth but I enjoy chocolate, as well as many sweet treats, every now and then. For this St. Valentine’s day, I bring you the whole menu for a special meal that is healthy and decadent at the same time. Also, it is a light meal, in case you need to do some exercise…
