CREAMY Mango BLISS Breakfast Bowl



Yepp, that's right, this bowl right here is just absolute BLISS. 

And look at how colourful it is!! 
This is one of the most delicious, creamy, and oh-my-god-yum  smoothie/ice cream/breakfast bowls that I've ever made! (and I make at least one everyday...)




Just look at that!!!

All the components work together sooooo well, creating a flavour explosion in my mouth HAHA :p
Give it a go next time you have good mangos on hand! (the better/sweet/ripe your mango is, the better the flavour will be *obviously though eheh*)

Happy Saturday! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! <3

EASY Vegan Indonesian Peanut Sauce



Indonesian peanut sauce is probably my favourite part of all Indonesian cuisine!
Traditionally used in various dishes, from dipping satay- to salad dressing. It's incredibly versatile! My favourite way to use it is to drizzle (more like pour lol) it on top of my 'fried rice', or use it to dip in some baked tofu/tempeh or even potato chips!

The traditional way to make it is to grind the peanuts together with the other ingredients to form a paste using a mortar & pestle first, but my version is a simplified one hehe :p

If you like peanut butter, I'm 100% sure that you'll love this recipe! Give it a try and let me know what you think! ;)

Vegan CARAMEL Oats



Finally! A new recipe is here HAHA!

I've been really busy lately since I just started high school recently and my new school is quite far away (I was eating pretty much the same thing everyday)… Now that things have 'calmed down' a bit I can start making more recipes yayy! :)

Those of you who follow me on snap chat (Healthiecook) probably know how much I love oats <3
I like to post oatmeal recipes there sometimes, but only the best/finalised recipe is posted here!

PLEASE give this recipe a try, you won't regret it!! It's just sooooo good!

SUPER EASY Black Bean, Corn, Veggie Rice



Another rice dish!!! Seriously so good and easy to make! I'll never get bored of making rice dishes (plus so many exciting combos can be made)! A lot of people ask me what food I like to bring to school, rice dishes are definitely my favourite to pack!

This time I used some steamed broccoli, garlic & curry seasoned black beans, boiled corn on the cob, along with some brown rice. As for the sauce, its a sweet & spicy tomato sauce! Talk about YUM.
*See the ver.1 here*

Raw Vegan Blueberry Banana Ice Cream



Finally another nice cream recipe! Those of you that follow me on snap chat/instagram probably know my obsession with these for breakfast! You can find the recipes for the more 'special' flavours here on this blog! :)

It's important to use ripe frozen bananas for making nice cream or it won't be as tasty/sweet. A banana is ripe when the skin is spotty and kinda soft to the touch (but not mushy).

Vegan Chocolate Orange Banana Ice Cream



Doesn't this look amazingly delicious? Well, it really is!! I don't know why I haven't made this flavour combination before (ugh), but I'm so glad I did now.

Chocolate and orange is just a classic combination that will never go wrong! Make it into an ice cream form and you're in for a real treat!! Not just any ice cream, this is Vegan & good for you (high-carb low fat as well yay!), perfect for breakfast (especially if you're into Rawtill4 / Raw).




And yeah, it's not Healthiecook style if it's not topped with gazillions (is that even a word? :p ) of toppings! I highly recommend you to do so too! Because it's incredibly delicious and colourful ;)

VEGAN Bean Chili Veggie Rice



Rice and beans is probably one of the best rice combinations ever! Of course, lots of colourful vegetables added in for extra nutrients (and taste)!

I actually didn't know what a 'chili' dish is before I was active on instagram. A lot of my friends post this tomato-bean-kinda dish that is served with rice and they call it chili (I thought it was spicy because chili is… you get the idea :p) but turns out it's not, it's filled with beans, vegetables, spices, and tomato sauce (traditionally people add meat but NOT me hahah, vegan brah!)

Then I thought, why not just mix the rice into the dish? So that way you'll get an equal ratio of chili : rice in every bite! Life hacks! So good mmm...

Indonesian Style 'Fried' Rice (VEGAN, NO OIL)



Today I have a very special recipe for you guys!

I'm going to share one of my all-time FAVOURITE rice dishes ever! Which is 'fried' rice! But my fried rice dishes have NO OIL added (which is super awesome for high carb low fat vegans, or anyone really). Now, there are a lot of fried rice 'styles' out there, Chinese style (more savoury, garlic-cky), Japanese style (teriyaki sauce most of the time), and Indonesian style which is very popular (sweet, usually spicy but that's optional!). So! The first fried rice recipe that I'm going to share here is going to be the Indonesian style one! ;)



I used tempeh, broccoli, and mushrooms today but you can use anything that you want (leftover veggies work really well!). Though you should use tempeh for a more authentic Indonesian taste though! Either way works, because what makes this special is the SAUCE!

Mango Berry Banana Ice Cream



A not-so-common combination but definitely a really good one! In fact, I think this is one of the tastiest banana ice cream flavours that I have ever made!

Creamy, sweet, delicious strawberry banana ice cream base, topped with mango cubes and coconut sugar. Oh yeah, I give you the permission to eat dessert for breakfast! Tastes super-yummy but healthy enough to eat for breakfast! Plus it's fully raw as well!




Remember to use a fully-ripe mango ok! You know it's ripe if it's nice & soft when you squeeze it lightly. You really don't want to eat an unripe mango ever because it tastes bitter and horrible for your digestion as well!

Pitaya Power Smoothie Bowl



I really love it when my food gets insanely beautiful nice and colourful! You see, too me visual is just as important as taste, y'know! Hahahah, I guess I'm just an artist at heart. (in and out of the kitchen ;) !)

Nope, it's not acai or blueberries that gave this such a wonderful, vivid colour, but it's Pitaya! (Also known as red dragon fruit) It's one of the cheapest, most common fruit where I live but I just tried it out recently, thanks to my fruit-loving friend at Instagram! (and I'm so thankful I tried it omg, it's such a wonderful fruit seriously!!) 

And no, I didn't edit the colour of the smoothie or add any artificial colouring at all! That gorgeous purple-pink colour purely comes from 'red-purplish' pitaya + 'white' bananas!! Mother nature provides us with so many natural colourings, so do keep that in mind if you reach out to those artificial colours!!



I topped mine with some slices kiwis, cubed pineapples (also obsessed with pineapples at the moment, so good mmm…), and my-must-add-topping which is granola (crunch-crunch-crunch)!

Raw Vegan Tropical Ice Cream Sundae



I can't even tell you how amazingly delicious this is.

Banana ice cream is just the best breakfast ever. It's just so magical you know, how simply some frozen bananas can transform into a delicious, smooth, and creamy soft-sevre ice cream! If you haven't tried it before than you simply have to. Like, seriously.




This time I made something a bit more tropical, it's actually inspired by a dessert in Indonesia (where I live) which consists of shaved ice with syrup or ice cream, tropical fruits, and topped with something similar (forgot the name of that seed) to these soaked chia seeds I put on top.
