Kiwi and lime chia popsicles

9th July 2016 by bos.kitchen 2 Comments

kiwi and lime chia popsiclesCool down this summer with my kiwi and lime chia popsicles! They’re sweet and creamy but so healthy you can enjoy them for breakfast. Packed with energising chia seeds and healthy fats from the coconut and nut milk, you’ll get that nourishing, full up feeling without feeling sluggish. They’re the perfect zesty treat to liven up your day. I love the texture of frozen chia seeds in coconut milk, it’s such a fun way to try chia!
(Makes 10)
  • 1 3/4 cups coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup almond mylk (or other non dairy mylk)
  • 2 tbsp rice malt syrup
  • 2 limes, juiced and zested
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract or 1 pod, seeded
  • 1/4 cup Organic Burst chia seeds
  • 2 kiwis, thinly sliced (I used Zespri golden kiwi fruit)
1. Stir coconut milk, almond mylk, rice malt syrup, lime juice and zest, vanilla and chia seeds together. Mix really well to make sure there are no lumps. Leave to soak for at least 15 minutes.
2. Rub a tiny bit of rice malt syrup on your kiwi slices and stick inside your popsicle mould. Slowly pour in the chia pudding and set in the freezer for at least 3 hours.

Raw kiwi cheesecakes

1st July 2016 by bos.kitchen Leave a Comment

raw kiwi matcha slice

I have to admit, I’ve never been a cheesecake fan. Too rich and creamy for me. But raw cheesecakes? Yes please. They are filling, nutritious, delicious and require minimal effort to make! The best thing is they stay fresh for up to a month in your freezer, so anytime you get a sweet craving, you can satisfy all your sugary needs with a healthy alternative. These slices are raw, refined sugar free and vegan of course! If you don’t have any almonds, feel free to sub in more buckwheat groats. I used Zespri Golden Kiwis for this recipe, which you can find in all major UK retailers until October. If you haven’t tried them before, definitely keep an eye out for some, they taste like a cross between a regular kiwi and bananas! I’m sure you already know by now how I feel about bananas. So these sunny little fellas were right up my street.

Raw kiwi cheesecakes

Base

  • 1/2 cup buckwheat groats
  • 1 1/2 cups pitted dried dates
  • 1/2 cup almonds
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted

Filling

  • 3 cups raw cashew nuts, soaked overnight in water and drained
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
  • Juice of one lemon or lime
  • 1/2 cup agave or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp matcha powder
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk
  • 2 green kiwi fruit (1 peeled, 1 unpeeled)
  • 1 golden kiwi fruit (unpeeled)
  1. Prepare your slice tin (I used an 8 inch square tin), line with baking paper, ensuring the paper goes up over the sides.
  2. Blend buckwheat groats briefly on their own in your blender or food processor, until crumbly, but not quite flour. Now add in the dates, almonds and coconut oil and blend until mixture starts to stick together. Press into your lined tin. I put another layer of baking paper on my base at this stage, followed by a book on top, to make sure it’s evenly flattened. Set aside in the fridge. Rinse out your blender.
  3. Now the filling. Pop drained cashews, coconut oil, lemon/lime juice and agave syrup into blender and blend on high until really smooth. Keep going until there are no lumps remaining.
  4. Add half of the filling mix to your chilled base and pop in the freezer briefly. To the remaining mix, add matcha powder, coconut milk and one green peeled kiwi fruit. Blend again until smooth. Add a little more matcha if you’d like it greener.
  5. Now add your final layer- pour on the green coloured filling on to your cheesecake. Slice up your remaining two kiwi fruit and arrange on top, alternating between green and yellow kiwi slices. Pop in the freezer to set overnight.
  6. Let sit out of the freezer for 30 minutes before slicing. Stores in the freezer for up to a month.

Strawberry kiwi slushie

strawberry kiwi slushy with wheatgrass and superfoods in a glass with a glass straw and mint and cucumber

 

 

Strawberry kiwi slushie

Recipe –
1 handful of frozen strawberries
2 handfuls of ice
1 tsp Organic Burst baobab
2 kiwis
half a cucumber
1 tsp Organic Burst wheatgrass 
1. Blend strawberries, 1 cup of ice and the baobab together in your blender. Add a little water to get it going, you want it very thick but just pourable.
2. Pour into your glass and tilt to the side so it sits on half the glass. Place in the freezer at the same angle, while you make your green smoothie.
3. Rinse out blender briefly with water. Add kiwis, cucumber, 1 cup of ice and wheatgrass and blend until the same texture as your strawberry smoothie, adding water as needed.
4. Carefully remove your glass from the freezer and slowly pour in the kiwi smoothie. Garnish with fruit and enjoy in the sunshine!

Kiwi vanilla power matcha smoothie

22nd February 2016 by bos.kitchen 1 Comment

IMG_2807-1

Kiwi, vanilla, bananas and a delicious power matcha blend from Your Superfoods are packed into this energising smoothie. I like my smoothies super thick and very cold so I added some ice to keep these babies creamy cool to the last slurp.

I layered a little vanilla chia pud at the bottom too for an extra burst of energy, which makes this the perfect breakfast smoothie. Have I mentioned how much I love matcha? Well, I do love it…a lot. I never thought it would be possible to find something to compete with my morning Americano but matcha always hits the spot. This blend is a mix of matcha, maca, moringa, wheatgrass and barley grass and actually has a really delicate flavour. A nice surprise for a green powder.

Sorry for the delay with getting my blog on the go. It’s been an unpredictable rollercoaster of a year so far and I’ve needed time to process the changes in my world. One thing I can be sure of is making food makes me feel happy so I’m going to keep creating and eating!

Recipe (makes two big smoothies) –

  • 4 frozen bananas
  • Handful of frozen ice cubes
  • Seeds from one vanilla powder
  • 2 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 2 tsp peanut butter
  • 3 kiwis (cut off a few thin slices if you want to stick some to your jar)
  • 2-3 pears
  • 2 cups almond mylk
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 tsp matcha
  1. Blend all ingredients apart from the broccoli and power matcha until smooth and creamy. Set aside half the mix into your glasses (or a jug if you want to make pretty layers) and blend the remaining mix with the broccoli and matcha.
  2. Add a layer of chia pudding to the bottom of your jar and stick some kiwi slices to the inside of your jar. Layer the smoothies with dollops of each smoothie for a swirly effect or layer with the light colour underneath and green on top for the ombre effect.
  3. Sprinkle with hemp seeds and enjoy!
