We all know that vegetables are essential in our alimentation, but sometimes eating them is not so easy; I go crazy for vegetable soups, risotto and baked vegetable with mayonnaise, etc. but there is food that no one can resist: cakes. So for the days that we’re not in the mood to eat so many veggies, I’ve created this simple and delicious recipe for pumpkin cake. It is a recipe super easy to make and is perfect for Phase 3 breakfast, accompanied by a good smoothie of vegetables and fruits. It is a vegetarian cake, dairy-free, very spongy and slightly moist inside.

A success on every occasion!

I do not know if it ever happens to you, but on Friday afternoon tastes sweet to me. If it is a rainy day like today in Barcelona, or if it is a sunny and hot day, on Friday afternoon I usually need a treat. But I do not want to give up eating healthy, so I have to manage to prepare something that is appetizing and tasty but at the same time very clean. This is how the gluten-free lemon mug cake that I propose today was born, it is easy to prepare and delicious. It’s a very handy sweet because if you are at home, you can eat it directly in the cup, but if you leave, you can put it in a bag and take it as a snack wherever you want.

I’m sure this mug cake will brighten the evening 😉

Easter has arrived and, as always, I propose a super healthy recipe to share with your families in these holidays. The Italian tradition inspires this year’s recipe: as you already know, although I live in Barcelona, I am originally from Rome, where the Easter breakfast is an incredible event. The whole family gathers and eats cheese bread, eggs, artichoke omelet, but the main protagonist is the Colomba, a delicious sweet shaped like a dove and covered with almonds and sugar. The recipe that I propose today is a healthy version of this Italian sweet, I choose muffin molds with Easter decorations, but you can put it in the traditional mold in the form of Colomba or a classic cake mold, as you like it ?

At the beginning of the year, I promised to prepare some of the recipes that you proposed, so after a survey on my Facebook page, we have a winning recipe: the cheesecake, probably one of the most popular desserts in the world.

The cheesecake has an origin older than we think, in fact already in Ancient Greece there were sweet cakes based on cheese. Over time this recipe has evolved and changed in each country until in the nineteenth century, it crossed the Atlantic. Around the year 1872, a cheesemaker from Philadelphia tried to create a soft cheese, ideal for this type of preparations, and thus the famous Philadelphia cheese was born, indispensable for the cheesecake. But it was only in the twentieth century when the New York cheesecake was born as we know it today, created by Arnold Reuben.

The version that I propose today is a vegan and gluten-free version, prepared with nuts and oats. Despite not containing diary-cheese it has the original cheesecake texture and is really delicious.

Try it also with this jam of rhubarb and ginger.

Phase 3 Serves: 4 Prep Time: Cooking Time:

Ingredients

  • For the base:
  • 1/2 cup of raw old fashioned oats
  • 1/8 cup of raw almonds

  • For the filling:
  • 1/2 cup of cashew nuts (cashews) raw
  • 1/4 cup of coconut milk in cardboard **
  • 3 tablespoons of sunflower oil
  • 1 tablespoon tapioca starch or arrowroot
  • 3 tablespoons of birch xylitol or Stevia to taste *
  • 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • Topping:
  • 1 cup of raspberries or other F3 fruit
  • Rhubarb and ginger jam

Instructions

NY Cheesecake vegano y sin gluten

  1. Put cashews (cashews) in a bowl and let them soak in cold water overnight
  2. Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
  3. Put all the ingredients to make the base in a processor and crush them until there is a homogeneous mass.
  4. Line a mold with baking paper and distribute the dough at the bottom of the mold and level with a spoon.
  5. Bake the base for 15 minutes. Take it out of the oven.
  6. Meanwhile, make the filling: put in a processor the cashews soaked all night, coconut milk and sunflower oil and crush until a smooth and homogeneous cream. It may take a few minutes.
  7. Add the xylitol or stevia, and one tablespoon of lemon juice beat again. Add the second spoonful of lemon juice and beat again.
  8. Add the sifted tapioca flour and beat again until it is fully incorporated.
  9. Pour the cashew preparation into the mold and bake for 30/40 minutes at 320ºF (160ºC).
  10. Wait for it to cool and put in the fridge. Unmold only when completely cold and serve with raspberries for breakfast or rhubarb and ginger jam for dinner.

This recipe is compatible with the Fast Metabolism Diet – FMD Phase 3; With these quantities, you got 4 healthy fat servings for <20 pounds but ONLY 2 grain serving for <20 pounds.

Notes

* I do not write an exact amount of stevia because there is usually much difference between one brand and another, some sweeten more and others less. ** This recipe uses 1/4 cup of coconut milk as a condiment. - WARNING FOR CELIAC: always check that the products that you use are certified without gluten, for who has doubts in this respect can be informed in the following link: https://bit.ly/GlutenFreeSymbology

Mayonnaise is one of the most popular sauces in the world. It has always been thought that this sauce was created in France in the middle of the 18th century, but more recently, it has been discovered that this sauce already appeared in some cookbooks on the island of Mallorca. This sauce created in Mallorca was a fusion between the mayonnaise we know today and the allioli, a Catalan sauce based on garlic and oil.The mayonnaise that we have today took many years to acquire popularity because at the beginning it was not very appreciated by the French who were not accustomed to preparations with so much oil.

Even being so popular, mayonnaise is one of those recipes that can be difficult to make at home. For this reason today I want to share my recipe to make always a perfect mayonnaise. This mayonnaise can be used in many different preparations.

Do not forget to tell me on my Facebook page what recipes you would like me to prepare;)

  5. Continue mixing continuously with a wooden spoon until the dough unstick
  6. Transfer the mixture into another container and add one egg at a time, beating vigorously with the wooden spoon
  7. It will not be necessary to add another egg if the precedent is not perfectly integrated with the mass
  8. Preheat the oven to 428ºF – 392ºF if ventilated (220ºC – 200ºC if ventilated)
  9. When the dough is ready (it has to be thick, but not rigid), put it in a pastry bag and form the pastries  on aluminum foil (better aluminum foil than baking parchment)
  10. Bake the pastries for 10 minutes, after this time lower the temperature to 392ºF – 356ºF if ventilated (200ºC -180ºC if it is ventilated) and leave them until golden brown (The total cooking time is approximately 30 minutes, 20 if the oven is ventilated, but may vary slightly from oven to oven)
  11. When the pastries are, turn off the oven but do not open it completely, only lightly (you can put a wooden spoon between the door so that it is just ajar), let it rest for 20 more minutes
  12. After this time, you have to pick a pastry with a toothpick, if it is cook, let the pastries dry in the oven
  13. To make the custard, you have to drain the cashew nuts correctly and grind them in a powerful blender
  14. When they are almost creamy, add the oil, three tablespoons of sugar and the orange juice and keep beating until there is a homogeneous cream
  15. When the cupcakes are cold, put the custard in a pastry bag and fill them through the base (as the cupcakes I made I made them smaller than the habitual I opened them in half and filled them with cream like this)
