Jaja na twardo w chrzanowym sosie i surówka z marchwi z hummusem

Bezmięsny piątek to nie tylko prozdrowotny trend, ale dla katolika wspomnienie Jezusowej męki i pragnienie - choćby symbolicznego - uszanowania niej.

W Biblii wspomina się o poście ponad 80 razy. Pościli Izraelici po odejściu i powrocie do Boga w ramach pokuty, pościł Dawid, gdy umierało mu dziecko i pragnął przebłagać Stwórcę za grzech cudzołóstwa, jak również upadli Niniwici, aby ocalić swoje miasto, które miało zostać zburzone. Pościł też sam Jezus na pustyni przez czterdzieści dni, kuszony przez złego.

W wielu krajach odeszło się od tej praktyki, w innych w ogóle jej nie było (choćby we Włoszech). Niektórzy uważają, że tradycja nie jest wyznacznikiem wiary, tylko zewnętrzną, narzuconą formą pobożności, od której trzeba się oderwać. Inni uparcie się jej trzymają. Czy zachowywanie postu w piątek ma sens?

Niemal od początków chrześcijaństwa w Polsce piątek był przeżywany jako pamiątka zbawczej śmierci Jezusa Chrystusa i - niezależnie od wichrów historii - praktykowano go w wielu domach. Przetrwał w naszym kraju nawet w komunistycznych stołówkach szkolnych. Największym wyzwaniem dla kultywowania tej formy religijności okazał się... dobrobyt.

Po co się wyrzekać, skoro wszystkiego jest w nadmiarze, na wyciągnięcie ręki, skoro nie ma ograniczeń i nikt nam niczego nie zabroni? Cóż, bez umiejętności wyrzekania się i powściągania rozmaitych chceń utoniemy we własnym egoizmie.

To właśnie brak uczy doceniać smak. Przesyt wywołuje mdłości, a nawet wymioty.

W połączeniu z modlitwą i jałmużną, post stanowi piękną formę rezygnacji z siebie i przygotowania się do świąt Wielkiej Nocy.

Szczerze polecam.

Składniki:

Jaja w sosie chrzanowym

kilka jaj 1/2 cebuli płaska łyżeczka mąki duża łyżka masła 300 ml bulionu warzywnego 200 g śmietany 18% czubata łyżka chrzanu sól i czarny pieprz do smaku

Surówka z marchwi i hummusu

2 marchwie 1-2 gałązki naci pietruszki 1/2 szklanki gotowanej ciecierzycy ząbek czosnku płaska łyżka tahini łyżka soku z cytryny 1-2 łyżki oliwy z oliwek e.v pół łyżeczki kuminu kilka łyżek jogurtu naturalnego sól i czarny pieprz do smaku

Wykonanie:

Jaja w sosie chrzanowym

W małym garnuszku zagotować wodę i wstawić jaja. Ugotować na twardo. Wyjąć, przestudzić i obrać ze skorupek. Przed podaniem przekroić na połowy.

W tym czasie cebulę obrać i pokroić w drobniutką kosteczkę.

W rondlu roztopić masło, wsypać cebulę i smażyć kilka minut do zeszklenia. Dodać mąkę, wymieszać i smażyć, aż powstanie zasmażka. Wlewać bulion, mieszając energicznie rózgą, aby rozbić wszystkie grudki i doprowadzić do wrzenia.

Do śmietany wlać kilka łyżek bulionu i zahartować ją. Przelać do rondla i całość zagotować. Doprawić solą, pieprzem i cukrem. Na koniec dodać chrzan, połączyć i wyłączyć gaz. Nie gotować dłużej, by chrzan nie tracił swej mocy.

Taki sos sprawdzi się także do pieczonej wołowiny czy ozorków (jeszcze nigdy ich nie robiłam!), ryb oraz warzyw na parze.

Surówka z marchwi i hummusu

Marchew obrać i zetrzeć na tarce o grubych oczkach. Czosnek obrać i z grubsza posiekać. Nać opłukać i drobno posiekać.

Do średniej wielkości pojemnika o pionowych bokach włożyć ciecierzycę, czosnek, tahini, oliwę z oliwek, sok z cytryny i zblendować na gładko. Rozrzedzić jogurtem. Doprawić solą, pieprzem, kuminem. Konsystencja powinna być luźna.

Marchew wymieszać z hummusem i nacią pietruszki.

So this was it. The day had arrived and thankfully Five hadn't shown up to ruin things. Not yet anyway. Russell had opted to bring Lewis and Gracie along though, just in case.

He had packed up a picnic basket with handmade Boston cream donuts, guacaroni (aka guacamole and macaroni salad), hummus and grated carrot sandwiches (with Parker House style rolls), falafels, a mix of corn and zucchini fritters, cannolis, and banana bread. He had also packed up two flasks; one with a sparkling peach surprise mocktail (made with peach juice and lemon lime soda) and the other with hot chocolate inside.

He had also dressed up with warmly, with a mix of smart and casual. So after sealing up the box tight and making sure it was attached firmly to his motorbike, he headed off.

But it wasn't long before he rolled up in front of Lucien's. After stopping, he carefully hopped off the bike. Then with another small gift in his hand, he made his way over to the door.

Femme Fatale Guide: Healthy Habits To Look & Feel Your Best Without Restriction or Unrealistic Routines

Realistic ways to maintain a healthy life/body/appearance (size and weight are all personal, not the most important metric – for certain). No diet culture or delulu-land tips here.

What I've done to maintain my 30-pound weight loss for over a decade, glowing clear skin (no pimples or discoloration, etc.), and super healthy, full & shiny hair, still living life and enjoying it – the mindful way.

Eat home-cooked meals & (plant-based) whole foods – 90-95% of the time

Incorporate at least 1 salad into my daily routine (either a large, hearty lunch salad or a simple green salad as a starter with dinner)

Include at least 1 fruit/vegetable in every meal or snack

Never restrict food groups – whole grains/potatoes, healthy fats, protein-rich plant foods, and produce are all essential to consume every day

Focus on meals, but have whole food snack options on hand to enjoy if genuinely hungry (mainly fruit, lupini beans, edamame, carrots/celery/cucumber with hummus, plain popcorn, handful of almonds/cashews)

Have breakfast after one coffee (before a second) and have dinner late enough (8-9:30 pm) to curb late-night hunger

Only have fruit and tea after dinner; Always stop consuming food at least 3 hours before bed for better sleep/digestion

Order whatever I want when going out to eat, but split dessert

Have at least one indulgent meal/dessert per week

No sugary cocktails – wine, champagne/prosecco, martinis, gin & tonic, margarita, French Connection, Sambuca, Grappa, tequila on the rocks, etc. are great options. Bellinis/fruit plus wine/spirits cocktails are a good middle ground. Sugary drinks worsen the hangover – big-time

Perceive healthy eating as a form of enjoyment, creativity, and nourishment, not restriction or deprivation (it's not if done liberally enough)

Consume a vitamin B12 and vitamin D supplement daily. Keep digestive enzymes on hand for when they're necessary

Always have a large glass of water first thing in the morning (before coffee) and by my side all day long

No soda, juices, sugary drinks, etc. Black coffee, tea, and water only on the daily – wine and no-sugar alcoholic drinks on rare occasions. Smoothies can be a great snack or breakfast, though!

Incorporate an (almost) daily walk into my schedule as a form of exercise and a mental health reset (I aim for 4-5 miles/10Kish steps per day on average)

Do short, low-impact strengthen training exercises 3x a week (15-30 mins each usually) for bone health & toning

Never forcing myself to do strenuous exercise/workout formally in a gym – it's not for me; it doesn't make me feel/look better and throws my hunger & energy levels way off. To each their own, though

Have a variety of playlists ready to go for waking up, working, dancing, walking/workouts, doing chores, and reading/relaxing

Internalizing that sexual health is a core aspect of your health & well-being – on all counts

Maintaining a simple skincare routine 2x per week with high-quality products and a couple of weekly treatments

Prioritizing my body care routine with as much as my facial skincare routine

Wearing at least SPF 30 daily

Exfoliating 2-3x per week

Learning what hair products work for my hair type; Using a deep conditioning mask and a scalp mask weekly

Using only cold water when washing my hair

Incorporating face & body massages into my weekly at-home routine

Using Uriage lip balm, hand cream, and deodorant religiously

Flossing 1-2 times a day/using an electric toothbrush

skye riley headcanons!

pairing: skye riley x reader

genre: fluff & comfort

warnings: slight issues with food, trichotillomania

wc: 663

a/n: there is a SEVERE. lack of skye riley content on here.. i am here to save the day /hj i enjoyed writing this and it brought me a lot of comfort to my very messy mind... if anyone wants me to write more pls send a request that would be lovely

she has eczema, so her diet is very limited. mostly consisting of fresh and whole foods like fruits and veggies to make sure it doesn't flare up.

but she loves to cook all kinds of things for you, even if she is too lazy to cook for herself sometimes. it's like a give-and-take kind of thing.

you want pancakes for breakfast? she's up early prepping ingredients to cook for you. by the time you wake up, you get a waft of your favorite fresh pancakes made by yours truly. topped with strawberries, bananas (both her favorite), and whatever other toppings she knows you love.

skye will skip meals for two reasons: one, she's too lazy or tired to make a meal for herself. and two, her mind beats her up and makes her think she needs to lose more weight. (which she doesn't, poor baby. so you make sure to check on her and her eating habits)

since she's basically a rabbit, her food is easy to meal prep.

you prep her food like you're a mother sending her toddler off to preschool. you place her salads in cute lunchboxes with little containers holding different dressings for her to enjoy with a motivational note.

whenever she unpacks her food and sees the little piece of paper with your handwriting saying: take care of yourself! <3  or  i love you :)  , a part of her heals.

oh, and you obviously can't forget her carrot and celery sticks with hummus. she'd rather stay home than forget to bring those to rehearsal.

no matter how dominant she may act, she's still the little spoon in bed.

nothing comforts her more than your warmth on her back, your leg over her hip, your arm around her waist, and your breath on her neck.

she LOVES it.

she holds the hand that is wrapped around her waist and caresses it so it stays there

she keeps a pillow in front of her to hug so she's completely sandwiched on the bed

you feel she thinks it makes her feel safe, and you find it so adorable 

speaking of sleeping, she'll also knock out within 5 minutes of you scratching her head.

it happened before on the set of one of her music videos. she was on her break and laid her head down on your lap. you didn't notice how her eyes started to flutter shut when you kept on running your fingers through her hair.

when you finished your conversation with one of the staff, you looked down and realized she had dozed off with her phone still in her hands.

elizabeth came over to look for her and realized the person lying on your lap was her daughter and the exact person she was looking for

"y/n! god, have you seen- oh, i've never seen her sleep so soundly ever since she was a kid... i'll be back."

you know about her really bad trichotillomania where she'll start to unconsciously twirl and pull her hair

so whenever you see her reach for her scalp, you're giving her a scolding look that says, "i dare you to even touch your hair skylar rose riley."

her hands immediately shoot back down to her sides and she looks like a dog that has just been scolded 

she thanks you for it, though, since it only reminds her of her lowest points in life

so, you decide to get her a fidget toy instead.

"skye, have you ever heard of slime?"

"what?"

after a long conversation addressing her tic, she ultimately agrees to settle on a needoh nice cube

at first, she found it a bit embarrassing to bring it around. but then after a while, she couldn't bear to leave without it. it's a safe way for her to relieve her stress, and plus it reminds her of you.

you took a polaroid of her smiling, getting her makeup done, with the cube in her hands. you keep it in your wallet. ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

Meanwhile my everyday meals are like... Oatmeal. Lentil curry. Tofu stir fry. Hummus with carrots. Beans and rice. Chickpea salad. Toast. Pasta. PB&J. The most expensive thing on my last grocery bill was olive oil.

With: @itsronniebish Where: King's Cross Hospital

Being in the hospital really sucked. Bex had never been a healthy individual, not for lack of trying, but she'd rarely spent time in hospitals and she sort of hated it. Being hooked up to wires, having people check in on her every hour, the constant smell of medication and sterilizer. Not to mention the terrible food. It was hard enough finding decent vegan food on a regular basis, in the hospital it just meant things like the world's most bland salad, a tomato sandwich, or a fruit cup. None of which were very filling or tasty, but Bex couldn't really complain, she supposed, considering she usually only subsisted on things like hummus and carrots, or toast. Still, she didn't like being in the hospital, especially alone, but she hoped it was only for a little bit longer. Her burns would take time to heal, as would her stitches, as she still refused any vampire blood, despite the staff's insistence. Hopefully, she'd still be out of here soon. But for now, she was stuck in this bed.

Billie had gone home for the night at Bex's insistence, but she was mildly regretting it as she struggled to try and open the little fruit cup the nurse had brought her. It shouldn't have been as frustrating as it was, even as she tried to hold the cup with her good hand and tear the top open with her teeth. It was stupid, but she was having a hard time, and maybe she was overreacting a little bit, but eventually she grew too frustrated and threw the plastic cup across the room. It knocked into the wall and fell to the floor, rolling over by the door-- where Bex finally noticed Ronnie was standing. "Shit," she said, covering her mouth a moment, "I-- sorry. I didn't see you." Mostly because she hadn't really expected anyone to come visit this late at night. "Are-- how are you, um, doing? You didn't get hurt or anything, did you?"

Menus, Oct. 23-30

Several people were open to seeing my menu planning, and it's something I enjoy doing well, so here we go!

Notes: My dishes can all be gluten free (they are, for us) by using gf pasta (we like Rummo brand gf noodles and Tinkyada are good too). Otherwise, we're pretty generally low carb and most things are from scratch, but typically pretty simple. Most of these rely on root vegetables or beans for their carbohydrates.

Feta tomato pasta and sausage --This was viral on Instagram a while back, and I decided to try it. Now my daughter requests it pretty often. I don't make it quite like the original--mostly, I add some zucchini, double the feta, and add a bunch of Italian seasoning. This link is pretty much the same thing. They add shallots, which does sound lovely but costs a bit extra. I cooked some sausage with the meal because I didn't want to load up on pasta, personally, as I'm still staying very low carb.

"Bowl of the Wife of Kit Carson"--modified caldo tlalpeño--Pity poor Maria Carson, whose indigenous name I can't even learn, now remembered by her husband's name. That aside, it's a family favorite. We make it with the entire can of chiles in adobo, but that's a family preference. The avocados are pretty much the vegetable in this one so uhh...have plenty. I make the rice separate, both because that way you can vary it depending on your spice tolerance and because that way the rice doesn't suck up all the soup for leftovers.

Roast whole chicken, roasted mixed root vegetables, and garlicky kale. I basted the chicken with avocado oil (expensive but healthy; feel free to sub cheaper vegetable oil), seasoned it with a Penzey's mix I like called Ozark Seasoning, and stuffed it with rosemary, onions, and garlic. The root vegetables can be whatever; mine were yellow beets (slightly less "earthy" tasting than red, which might be more appealing to some), rutabaga, and carrots. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder is enough, seasoning-wise. And the kale, I blanch and then saute with a LOT of garlic.

Garlic parmesan white beans, brussels sprouts, and Gujerati carrot salad. I've not made the beans yet; they'll be a new dish for us. Sound great, though, and I'm trying to learn more meatless dishes generally and bean dishes specifically. We like to halve or quarter our brussels sprouts, depending on size, steam them, and then eat them with sour cream. And the carrot salad is a longstanding family favorite, which I got from my well worn copy of Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking. This is almost the same recipe, but I don't add cayenne, and I wouldn't use olive oil, since it has such a low smoke point. I'd use peanut or canola or something. It's not spicy or "exotic" tasting, and it's been well-received at potlucks.

Pot Roast. There's no point giving a recipe for this one; just pick one that looks good to you. Just include lots of good veggies. I like carrots, onions, potatoes, and parsnips. It's fun to add a bag of frozen pearl onions, and I like frozen peas put in at the very end of cooking.

Tuna salad. I eat it over lettuce, the others eat it as a sandwich. Dinner for a tired night. My tuna salad is made with well-drained chunk light (in water), finely diced celery, finely diced green salad olives, salt, pepper, and mayo to bind. My family really likes the olives so I go heavy and also use a little of the jar liquid as a salt stand-in.

Deviled eggs and raw veggies with hummus. Another phone-in meal, or it would be if I didn't find making deviled eggs such a hassle. We all love them, but I have some inexplicable personal antipathy for how long they take to make. ANYWAY, my deviled eggs are the bestest, and you will not think so if you eat yours southern-style with (shudder) "salad dressing" instead of mayo, or sweet relish. No, mine are made with salt, pepper, mayo, and lots of finely minced green salad olives, and topped with paprika, preferably sharp paprika.

Pork tenderloin, frozen corn, and stewed apples and quince. Aren't we just POSH? Jacob got me a quince to try at the farmer's market. It's uh...well pretty much I guess it's like a rock-hard and fairly tart apple, with the granular texture of an Asian pear. They're generally eaten cooked, which is why I decided to stew it mixed with apples. So I just sliced the apples and the quince up fine (just leave out the quince if you don't have it which you probably don't, and maybe add a dash of lemon juice instead), simmered them in a couple tablespoons of apple cider (or juice; we had cider), and threw in a teaspoon of pie seasoning, a fistful of dried cranberries (the recipe called for raisins) and very approximately a tablespoon of allulose syrup. Obviously you could just use sugar instead. I topped mine with pecans and it was so so good. Oh, and also the pork: Usually two tenderloins come in a pack of tenderloins, so I put a different seasoning on each just for fun. Various blends. Lemon pepper and Montreal Steak Seasoning are favorites, but tonight I opened an unlabeled container in the pantry and discovered that it was rosemary salt the bestie made and left here, so I mashed it up with some garlic and put that on one, and did bbq rub on the other. The frozen corn....is frozen corn. Except, you know, microwaved.
