Immunity boosting chicken noodle soup for dinner tonight 🍜 🥣 🍲 As the weather gets colder, I crave for warming and comfort food. So, I decided to make some soup tonight. And given the wintery nights the last few days and people falling sick around me, I decided to make this immunity boosting soup packed with fresh garlic and ginger. I hope you are all staying warm this winter and healthy. If you are feeling a little under the weather, I recommend making this soup to boost your immunity 😊 This soup can be vegan friendly by swapping the chicken with tofu and egg noodles with vegan noodles. Full recipe below. Enjoy 😉 • • • In a wok on a medium high heat, add 1.5 tbsp sesame oil. Once the oil is hot, add 3 tbsp freshly minced garlic and 2 tbsp freshly minced ginger and fry until fragrant and golden brown. Then, add 350g diced chicken breast (or 350g dived firm tofu), @san_elk veggie stock or salt to taste and pepper and stir fry until the chicken is cooked. Then, add 450g diced sweet potatoes & potatoes (either or or combination of both) and boiling water enough to submerge the potatoes to enable them to cook. Once the potatoes are el dente and the water is boiling, add 2 carrots, julienned, 1 head of broccoli chopped into florets and 2-3 cups cauliflower florets and just enough boiling water to submerge all the veggies. Allow the veggies too cook and the water to boil. Then add enough dry egg noodles (or #veganfriendly noodles for vegan soup) for 4 people and allow the noodles to cook until el dente . Turn off the heat and season with more veggie stock or salt to taste and cracked black pepper to taste. You can add more boiling water if you like your soup more soup-y 🍜 You can garnish with some toasted sesame seeds, freshly cut chillies and fresh coriander 🍲 Enjoy 😊 Serves 4 #winterwarmer #comfortfood #healthyfood #healthyrecipes #chickensoup #noodlesoup #frugalmeals

Made some Kung Pao Chicken Meatballs for dinner a few weekends ago and it was delicious. On a cold wintery night like today, this Kung Pao dish is definitely a comfort food and will warm you up this winter 😋 I love spicy taste from the dried chillies and Sichuan peppers, saltiness from the soy sauce, sourness from balsamic vinegar and sweetness from the sweet soy. I also used sesame oil to bring the taste of this dish to the next level 🤤 I also packed my Kung Pao dish with #veggies such as carrots, green beans and capsicum for fibre and cashews for some good fat. I had my Kung Pao Chicken Meatballs with red rice but it goes well with quinoa, brown rice or basmati/jasmine rice 🍛 And as always, I seasoned the meatballs with my favourite veggie stock, @san_elk . For a #veganfriendly option, you can swap the chicken meatballs with 500g firm tofu 😊The full recipe of this Kung Pao Chicken Meatballs can be found on my blog (link in bio) • • • https://healthyfoodiecreations.com/2019/06/18/kung-pao-chicken-meatballs/ • #chinesefood #asianfood #winterwarmer #comfortfood #dinnerideas

Sometimes we can plan all we want but life has other unexpected plans for us. Like how I made these dark chocolate truffles with caramel crunch for the #donnahay #dhbakeswithcsr competition last week with the plan of taking pretty pictures of them this weekend during the day (for sunlight) for the best photos but that didn’t happen because unexpected events happened. So, I had to settle for night time photos with not great lighting. But these #truffles do taste 10000000x better than they look and they melt in your mouth when you bite into them and the caramel crunch and sea salt on top take the flavours of these truffles to the next level 😊 They also make a great comforting snack after two long days 🤤😅🥰 I also made @donna.hay caramel cheesecake but didn’t have time to make the caramel topping before the competition ends 🙃 Fingers crossed I win this competition and get the chance to learn how to cook with @donnahaymagazine @csrsugar #homemadetruffles #chocolatetruffles #chocolates

Made these scrumptious white chocolate caramel crunch cookies inspired by @donnahaymagazine . They may not look as pretty as @donnahaymagazine cookies but they surely taste delicious😊They are also so easy to make and are crunchy on the outside and chewy/soft on the inside. I also love the caramel flavour of these cookies and they make such a great afternoon tea snack 🍵 🍪 #dhbakeswithcsr #cookies #homemadecookies #biscuits #homemadebiscuits #morningtea @csrsugar @donna.hay

PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY DONUTS 🍩 For breakfast this morning, I was feeling like some #donuts . So, I made some wholegrain #vegan #glutenfree #peanutbutter & jelly/jam donuts! And what a treat they were. They are so easy to make and are made with nutritious ingredients such as bananas, rolled oats, almond meal & of course some peanut butter. And they only take 15-20 minutes in the oven, so your breakfast will be ready in no time 😊They are super moist and I love the filling of peanut butter & jam on the inside 🥰#doughnuts Full recipe below👇👇👇 • • • Ingredients 2 ripe bananas @australianbananas 1 1/4 cup rolled oats @uncletobys 1/2 cup almond meal @lucky.nuts 1 tsp baking powder @mckenziesfoods 2 tbsp coconut sugar or sweetener of your choice @terramadreorganics 1/2 cup cashew milk or milk of your choice @sogoodau 2 tbsp walnut oil or coconut oil @walnutsaustralia 2 tbsp peanut butter @mayversfood 1 tsp vanilla essence *** For the filling: Extra peanut butter & jam of your choice. For the jam, I used my homemade maple blueberry chia jam (recipe of this jam is on my blog, link in my bio 👉👉👉) Method Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius and grease a donut or muffin tray. In a blender place all the ingredients (except the filling ingredients) & blend until well combined & resembles a muffin batter. Half full the greased donut/muffin tray with the donut batter. Then, add 1/2-1 tsp of peanut butter & jam each to each donut/muffin batter. Top the peanut butter/jam with the remaining donut batter. Place the tray in the oven oven for 15-20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when you insert into the donut/muffin. Allow the donuts/muffins to cool and you can drizzle with extra peanut butter if you wish and enjoy 😉 Makes 9 donuts/muffins or 18 mini donuts/muffins. Store in the fridge for up to a week 😊 @bestofvegan @food52 @beautifulcuisines @veganbowls @foodblogfeed @worldwideveganfood @foodie_features

HOMEMADE CRISPY FRIES 🍟 Who else loves hot crispy fries on a cold windy winters ❄️ night?!? And what more if they are healthy and not deep fried? I made these chips in my trusty #airfryer, but I have also make them in the #oven and they turn out perfectly crispy every time. I also used three different vegetables for my chips: sweet potatoes , white potatoes and pumpkins. I love the texture and flavour of these different chips in a bowl and they go well with tomato sauce and American mustard 🤤🤤🤤 I have seasoned the chips with @san_elk veggie stock, cracked black pepper and dried mixed herbs. The full recipe is below👇👇👇 Enjoy 😊 • • • Ingredients 300g white potato, cut into chips 300g sweet potato @australiansweetpotatoes cut into chips 300g pumpkin, cut into chips Cracked black pepper San elk @san_elk veggie stock or salt to taste 1 -2 tsp dried mixed herbs Drizzle of olive oil @cobramestate Method In a large bowl, place all the chips in a bowl. To speed up the cooking time in the Airfryer/oven, I microwave the chips for 5-6 minutes. After microwaving the chips, I mix all the remaining ingredients and place in the Airfryer @philips or baking tray in the oven at 170 degrees Celsius for 20-25 until cooked and golden brown. If you did not microwave the chips, you will need to cook the chips for 30-40 minutes. Enjoy 😉 #hotchips #fries #homemadefries #sweetpotatofries #chips #bakednotfried @socialsouphq @aldiaustralia
