Ground flax seed porridge

Šeimos Virtuvė — Tue, 04 Nov 2014 18:10:23 +0000

Lately, if we have bananas, I always make flax seed porridge. I like it very much. And if I add chopped fruits that are at the moment at home, and sprinkle with chopped toasted nuts - porridge comes out unreal! All my family enjoy this porridge, even the smallest and the largest. And I just love the fact that it is healthy and useful, and tasty.

Banana granola sugar-free and oil-free

Šeimos Virtuvė — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 18:00:14 +0000

nother name of this granola should be "It can't be more healthy" :) Now almost every sweet is too sweet for me, that's why I liked this granola - it has only a mild sweetness. But making this granola you should use really overripe banana.

Oatmeal with banana and nuts

Šeimos Virtuvė — Mon, 09 Jun 2014 18:30:23 +0000

This morning was cloudy so it was a good time to cook this oatmeal. My kids don”t like simple oatmeal (or I just think that I still didn”t learn to cook it tasty), so I decided to make a little bit sweet but still healty version. Banana gives mild sweetness and nuts adds some crunchy texture. In the original recipe walnuts are used, but we don”t like them so I changed them to hazelnuts. At the end my little one asked next time not to add nuts at all. So decide by yourself to use or not to use nuts in your oatmeal.

Chocolate banana shake

Šeimos Virtuvė — Tue, 25 Feb 2014 08:54:05 +0000

One more healthy recipe that I found in books about healthy living. It’s without diary products – that was one good point for me. Another thing – it’s with flaxseed. I’m trying to use them more in our daily family diet. So I almost ran to the kitchen and mixed it. I really recommend to let soak flaxseed meal in water for a few minutes, or your shake will be with hard small parts. But if you will be patient – shake will be very thick and creamy.

Banana bread pudding

Šeimos Virtuvė — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 09:40:37 +0000

On the weekends we like to watch TV show “I can cook”. In other words we record it and watch when we like :) One day I decided that it’s enough just to watch this showing, we need to take some action and prepare something. So we chose this banana-bread pudding. The next weekend I bought all needed products and measured everything. Then I invited kids to the kitchen to do everything what was needed to prepare pudding. And we really had a very good time :) There were some troubles for kids, but I just reacted calmly and the mood of everyone was saved :) Even dad said that this dessert is very good. We agreed that if we had some ice cream it would be even better, but even by itself it was very good :)

Muffins with berries

Šeimos Virtuvė — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 11:31:15 +0000

It was really impulsive baking. I saw them in a magazine for parents in a section “Baking together”. :) Together? So I asked if my kids want to bake something and they happily agreed. So I just measured all ingredients in purpose that my kids were not bored, and they started to work. The result came out perfect – smell was fantastic, and the taste was remarkable – berries gave some refreshing sourness and banana gave moisture. Even next day they were very good and left over disappeared too quickly. So I’m thinking to repeat them very soon again.

Raw banana and peanut butter smoothie

Šeimos Virtuvė — Wed, 22 Oct 2014 08:01:36 +0000

When I saw this recipe, I knew – I will do it because I had all ingredients by the hand, even almond milk. And I can say that this is more dessert than smoothie, because it’s very dense. It was perfect for my hubby, who hates cow milk, and this smoothie he liked very very much. I think you can try cow milk instead of almond, but it won’t be raw ;)

Cake with the caramelized bananas

Šeimos Virtuvė — Sun, 13 May 2012 13:01:56 +0000

This year my little boy turned 4! And this is his cake. I spend a lot of time looking for the right cake. The choice was good! Maybe a little bit cream was fat, but it was tasty. Also I drizzled sponge with cherry compote. For 6 people the cake was too big, so leftovers I freezed and now I can enjoy it with the afternoon coffee :)

Chocolate peanut butter smoothie

Šeimos Virtuvė — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 08:38:46 +0000

When I want something sweet but healthy at the same time – I blend smoothies. My kids adore them :) Maybe that’s why all the time I keep a few frozen bananas in the fridge.
