Quick top up shop vlog - Vegan at Aldi

Quick top up shop vlog - from Aldi!!

I am obsessed with Aldi! It is super cheap! :) The only problem is that the veggies go off quickly, so you will have to chomp them quickly, which is no problem for me of course :) I love veggies!! We are trying to eat less processed foods in my house. Esme is not currently convinced, and still wants pizza and chips constantly!! 

All The Kale Please Vol. II..The Coconut Edition

All The Kale Please Vol. II..The Coconut Edition

I was inspired today by going on a play date with Esme. The kids were eating Thai Green Curry and the house just smelled amazing! It made me SUPER hungry! So I thought, what do I have in my cupboards or fridge that can even remotely replicate this? Being the beginning of the month, we had slightly more of an abundance of food than usual. So this means..KALE!! YUM!!

It was definitely a 15 minute throw everything together sort of meal! But pretty delicious and worth it :)

Note: This does not taste like Green Curry, but the nearest I could get with the ingredients in my cupboards!!

What you need: (feeds 2-3 people)

Tofu (1/2 block for 2 people)

Kale (1/2 bag, more if needed!)

Olive Oil/Coconut oil

Rice

Onion

Garlic (2 Cloves)

1 tbsp flour (GF)

1-2 tsp chilli powder

Salt & Pepper

Tin of Coconut milk
Seeds

What you need to do (apart from save the world)

• Put on enough rice to feed ALL the people
• Fry Onions and Garlic for a couple of minutes, throw in the chopped tofu. Saute until Tofu is brown
• Add the Kale, saute, then the chilli powder.
• Scoop the cream off the top of the coconut milk
• Add the flour, stir, then the water from the tin of coconut milk
• The sauce should thicken, add as much coconut cream as you think is needed!
• Add salt and pepper to taste
• Decorate with seeeds
• EATS!!!

All The Kale Please.. - Quick Eats

All The Kale Please..

I have been really obsessed with Kale lately. I love cabbage, but Kale really is on another level!

This was a really nice snacky meal, as I am often shattered by lunchtime, due to running after 3 year old all morning! She even enjoyed it, which is a double win for mankind!

So all you really need is:

• Kale
• Houmous (Shop bought or home-made - if you have no time like me rolling out of bed and buying houmous is an easy option!!)
• Walnuts - or any kind of nuts!
• Seeds ( I added this afterwards, because I am so tired I cannot think right now XD)
• 1 Onion
• Optional - Nutritional Yeast - I tend to just put this on everything
• Himalayan Salt or Sea Salt - no table salt please!

You can easily adapt this dish to be raw if you prefer. Esme will not eat raw Kale so I boiled it for maybe 10 mins (generally best to do it for not very long, I do it on orders of a 3 year old!). Meanwhile fry up some onions, when ready just throw together really! Add the walnuts/seeds/houmous. Eat, then fall asleep, if you are very very lucky!
