Valentino Salad

Valentine’s Salad is a perfect starter for a romantic dinner, it’s an earthy and colourful salad with roasted beets, strawberries, Roquefort cheese, sunflower seeds and arugula topped with aged balsamic vinegar for a romance in style. If there is something I like about blogging recipes is to choose a name for my recipes. This one was a no-brainer… just had a quick look at it and it’s clearly a romantic-looking salad and Valentine’s day is coming up so ‘Valentine’s Salad’ seemed appropriate.

Kiwi, strawberry, banana and almond milk smoothie bowl is a smooth way to refill your vitamins level and start the day fresh. With an extra topping of almond and maple sugar flakes. A Lactose-free smoothie. I confess… I received a smoothie machine for christmas, and this is my first smoothie bowl ever. Nor did I do many simple smoothies either… So being fairly new at it, I did an “obvious” choice of fruits, a always favorite of mine; sharp kiwi with juicy strawberry and to calm things down a banana!

There is a whole lot to explore in the smoothie world… 2017 will be my smoothie year, you’ll see lots more of them on my blog. A…
