Hummus & Black Lentil Tacos with Kohlrabi Salad

October 27, 2016 by Cris 2 Comments

Hey friends! I know it’s been a while but I have a little something for you today. It’s crunchy, melty, and juicy … Yeah, these tacos totally deserve your attention!

I’m going to be straightforward: I LOVE TACOS! There is never a bad day for tacos if you ask me. Plus, they rank up there with burgers (don’t do burgers that often, though) and wok noodles (here is one of my favorite recipes Spicy Chicken Wok Noodles) for their versatility, and rightly so. They’re easy to make, easy to customize, and deeply, intensely satisfying. Which is why I am going to keep sharing my favorite tortilla stuffers with you….

A double dose of protein for tomorrow’s lunch anyone? Buttery black lentils, hearty white quinoa and chunks of avocado… Mmmmm, you bet it tastes awesome. Really awesome!

Summer came back to Düsseldorf and I am SO happy. Life and people seem easier to deal with when the sun is shining.

I am also in the mood of eating tons of fruit all day long and very simple meals (fast to prepare too) like today’s salad. Now imagine the buttery black lentils combined with the hearty white quinoa how it goes. Avocado lends a lovely, buttery flavor and fresh oregano makes this salad look and taste alive. Don’t you also think? :) …

Acai Granola Bowl

This acai homemade granola is really, really addictive. I dare to say satisfying in all the ways that matter.

First things first, I’d like to apologize. I know I haven’t been posting that often these past few weeks, but life is not ALWAYS as planned. So the job process is still on and, unfortunately, those interviews really took all my positive vibe and energy.

But let’s not get into boring details, like I even had to explain myself for the blogging activity (not that many companies seem to ‘appreciate’ your hobby, especially if you’re so passionate about it), but rather stick to this acai granola recipe, send you some LOVE and happy vibe….
