Vegan Receipe - 'Because I'm Sweet Enough' - Overnight Oats - No sweeter!


What do you do when you run out of pineapples?


So in my posts 'Pining' and 'Fruity Date' I feature overnight oats made with fresh pineapple juice including the pulp or with dates blended with water.



On this occasion I had run out of pineapple and dates and since I no longer consumer white or brown sugar I opted to make oats with just water.



I decided to just add fresh chopped papaya and stir through and to my suprised it was delicious!

In fact because the papaya was so sweet it didn't actually need the pineapple or dates method I usually use.

A delicious overnight oats bowl with just the sweetness of the papaya! I will alternate between using just water, blended pineapple and blended dates. Using just water was great as it meant I could bypass blending anything so the overnight oats are even quicker to prepare!

Below are some health benefits compilations of the ingredients.

Raw Vegan Breakfast - 'Pining' - Pineapple & Papaya Overnight Oats


This is a variation on my 'Fruity Date' overnight oats. 

For this overnight bowl I blended fresh pineapple chunks with a little water and poured the whole mixture (including pulp) onto the oats and stirred through. 

The next morning I added some fresh pineapple chunks and topped with some freshly chopped papaya.

 I judged the amount of freshly blended pineapple to add by how easy it was to mix as I am an eyeballing kind of girl.

 It was easy to mix but not too easy, the most common ratio is 1 cup of water to 1 cup of oats ratio.

I love how quick and easy this breakfast was to prepare. Such a filling, super tasty, raw and nutrious breakfast, a great way to start the day!

Vegan Receipe - 'Tropica' - Papaya & Bananas Smoothie Bowl - Just 3 Ingredients!





This is my go to fuss free super simple smoothie bowl.

I'm currently in Costa Rica and the bananas and papayas here taste out of this world. So much flavour than the ones available in the UK!

For this smoothie bowl I simply blended x4 medium sized bananas with x1 medium sized papaya and some ginger. I only added a little water as I wanted it thicker so that it's more of a dessert consistency.

A truly delicious sweet and filling smoothie bowl which keeps me going till lunch!
