Sunday Smoothie: Ananas&Mure/Pineapple&Blackberry

Exista doua mari dileme in lumea asta: oul sau gaina si munte sau mare. Fiind nascuta in Brasov este normal sa imi placa muntele si sa ma simt ca acasa cand oriunde vad unul. Dar tocmai pentru ca sunt nascuta la munte ador marea pentru ca nu aveam acces tot timpul la ea. Solutia ideala: tari precum Italia sau Croatia unde le poti avea pe amandoua la un loc.
La fel este si smoothie-ul de astazi, o combinatie intre fructele de padure de pe varful muntilor si ananas si cocos de pe plajele tropicale. Noroc ca exista supermarketuri unde le gasiti pe toate la un loc :)
There are two big dilemmas in this world: the chicken or the egg and mountain or beach. Being born in a mountain city it's natural for me to love the mountain because every time I see one I feel like home. But because of that I also have to adore the sea because it wasn't something I could enjoy everyday. The best solution: countries like Italy or Croatia that have them side by side.  
And this applies to this smoothie, a combo between the forest fruits from the top of the mountain and the pineapple and coconut from the exotic beaches. Lucky for us, you can find them all in a supermarket :)

Ingrediente: 4 felii ananas, o cana lapte de cocos sau 2 linguri de unt de cocos, o cana de iaurt dulce, o cana de mure, 2 linguri de musli cu ciocolata.
Ingredients: 4 pineapple slices, one cup coconut milk or 2 tbsp coconut butter, one cup sweet yogurt, 2 tbsp chocolate granola.

Voi ce alegeti? Munte, mare sau amandoua?
So which one do you choose? Mountain, seaside or both?
Love,
L.

Sunday Smoothie: Papaya&Ananas/Papaya&Pineapple

Am vazut zilele trecute la televizor cum in supermarketurile noastre are loc o invazie de fructe exotice ale caror denumiri sunt mult prea complicate pentru axonii neuronilor mei. Si ca o adevarat aventuriera am plecat in cautarea lor. Din pacate m-am ales doar cu un papaya nu foarte copt si un ananas numai bun. Asa ca pana dau de un mangostan va arat un smoothie de duminica din recolta actuala.
A few days ago I saw on TV that there is an exotic fruits invasion in our supermarkets, with names way to complicated for my neuron's axons. And like a true adventurer I went to find them. Unfortunately my only reward was a barely ripe papaya and a good pineapple. So until I find a mangosteen around, I'll show you a Sunday smoothie with the actual harvest.

Sunday Smoothie: ananas&cocos&smochine/pineapple&coconut&figs

Smoothie-ul de azi a fost inspirat de un ingredient pe care nu il gasesti foarte des in magazinele de la noi: laptele de cocos. Daca aveti norocul sa-l gasiti va invit atunci sa incercati urmatorul smoothie. Este delicios.
Today's smoothie was inspired by an ingredient that you can't find very often in my country: coconut milk. But I was lucky enough to get some so I invite you to try the next smoothie. It is absolutely delicious.
