Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great start to your week. My lack of posts in the last few days were a sure sign that this gal was one busy bee!
I had such a great weekend :-) I had some friends stay over on Saturday night. Girls nights rule! We had wine, I made DIY fajitas and we chatted about the most random of things :-s
Friday night's meal was very "student days". I'm not one for pasta usually - like I said, it takes me back to my days as a poor student. Well on this occasion, I really fancied a simple pasta dish so I added vegan pesto, chopped tomatoes, sweetcorn and peppers to some wholewheat penne. Hit the spot after a long run :-)
On a more chocolatey note.....as soon as I read Angela's Choc Almond Butter recipe, I knew I just had to give it a go....
Almonds + vitamix
Good quality dark choccie + a bit of coconut oil = melty deliciousness :-) :-)
Whizz em all together
Three words......yum, Yum and YUM!! :-)
I dipped strips of wholemeal pitta into the spread......and scraped the chocolate bowl with clementine segments. Soooo good!
Much love
xoxo
glad you had a fun weekend! my bestie is coming friday for lunch with her baby.=)
ReplyDeletechocolate almond butter sounds amaaazing!
question: did you blend those almonds with a dry blade? i just have the one vitamix canister and i'm wondering if i can blend walnuts in there...
haha, girls rule ;) Nothing beats girl chat over wine! Chocolate almond butter looks yummy, I remember Angela making it!
