Hi I am a .... My New Roots Newtella addict

Last year around this time, I read something very exiting on one of my favorite blogs ever; My New Roots.

She was giving another cooking class in Amsterdam!
So of we went!

I don't know what it is with winter time, but I crave nut butter ALL. THE. TIME!!
There is something about it! The nutty flavor, the texture, eating a healthier version of my childhood staple - really, I ate the stuff non stop with a spoon, finishing jar after jar! totally addictive I have now realized! what do you expect, they specialize in finding the right sugar-salt balance to keep us hooked! And I was their top consumer  - 

Now, knowing the importance of nutrition, trying to avoid all the processed crap, and making what I can myself...
 I eat hazelnut, almond,... butter that only want the best for me!
- not what is best for the compagnies tching tching - 
Think healthy fats, vitamins, protein,... all natural


And last year I learned by Sarah firsthand how to make that addictive nutella the healthy way!
Roast -or roast them not  higher that 42degrees - your nuts of choice
Grind them in your foodprocessor
add some cocao powder and some coconut sugar 
and
Tadaaaaa!!

Its THAT easy!

Ice ice cream baby

I know it's Easter and easter chocolate eggs are all around,
but I am much more interested in these!!

Spotted these at the Bio/ Nature shop the other day!
Have you seen the names and the flavors!
instant attraction!

So for those of you who are intolerant to a lot of stuff and stayed clear of ice cream (dairy ect.)
no longer!!
Those days are over!

These are gluten / soy / lactose free and kosher

ok ok, it is this processed food, but seriously with flavors like these... who cares?

Chez Josy

One of my latest finds in Brussels..
Well Boitsfort really
Chez Josy!


One day I ordered a butternut soup to go...
yeah, to go, to go to my car, had a sip and finished to whole thing right there! 
just left a tiny bit enough to fill one spoon so i could go home and re-taste and identify all the ingredients!
Couldn't figure it all out, and that soup had been playing on my mind, that after 3 weeks of wondering I picked up the phone and asked!
Filled with delicious butternut, carrots, almond milk, lemongrass,ginger and sooo much more
It is one of the best butternut soups I've tried.
And trust me this winter I had A LOT!!! ( remember Tuck Shop's)

Since that amazing butternut soup, every time I am in the neighborhood I make sure to step in, and order me the soup of the day!






It's like a mini bio health food store, but manly its a great lunch spot with delicious soups salads and veggie and fruit juices!
