I know sounds a little weird right? Wrong it is sooo good! You have to try it! I found the recipe in Canadian Living magazine and since their recipes are always good we had to try it.
Such a pretty colour.
Simply put into nutribullet or other blender, 1 frozen banana, 2 peeled segmented clementines, 1/4 cup frozen cranberries, 1 cup of plain Balkan (I used Greek, that is all I had), 2tbsp honey and 1/4 tsp turmeric and blend.
First of all, before I forget, we are now on Instagram! I have wanted to do that for a very long time and today I did it! We are @ cookswithevie.
I have so many posts to finish! I hope I can get time to post them soon.
We made these “burgers”, next time I want to try these on pita with tahini and hummus. I wasn’t prepared this time and just used the buns we had.
This recipe is so easy.
1/3 cup large flake oats
1cup chickpeas (I used canned, drained)
1cup lentils (I used canned, drained)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, chopped
1 egg
2tsp chili powder
1tsp oregano
1/4tsp salt
1/2 English cucumber, finely diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
Whirl oats in food processor until ground. Add in chickpeas, garlic, onion, egg, chili powder, oregano and salt.
Process scraping down sides as needed until smooth.
Place this mixture in a bowl and stir in lentils, cucumber and parsley.
Shape into 4 patties.
Cook patties in a lightly greased pan until golden on each side.
We served on buns drizzled with tahini. And added whatever each person felt like adding.
We also served with these baked sweet potato fries with curry lime dip.
That super simple recipe will follow tomorrow.
Well the holiday season is over and things are slowly getting back to a slightly normal rhythm. I have a couple days off work so Evie is itching to do some of her craft kits she got for Christmas.
Today we are stuck inside as we are having freezing rain and everything is covered in ice. We are using the time to make homemade hamburger buns. While those are rising we are trying out Fuzzeez, make your own teddy bear, it is no sew felted wool.
After 2 washes in hot water and dried in the dryer remove the clips and we have this little guy.
It did turn out pretty cute.
He was still a little too soft and some parts were not quite felted. This could have been avoided if the instructions said to use one piece stretched out.
So we trimmed the edges, put back in form and washed and dried again.
Overall it did turn out well. The instructions were step by step, however never mentioned filling in the feet, which led to our problem with the parts that didn’t felt properly. We were able to fix those up and it worked ok. Definitely not energy efficient and it took a long time to go through 3 hot wash cycles and then a very long time in hot dryer.
I am still on the fence if we would buy and do another of these. Knowing what we know now regarding how it turned out and we could avoid the little problems that we had. I say probably yes and Evie said yes right away. So there may be a bunny or cat in our future!
This is not an affiliate post, we were not compensated in any way for this review, it was a Christmas gift to Evie from her great aunt and we just decided to review it for anyone who would like to know how it actually works.
