BACK TO SCHOOL share-and-win action

The summer holiday is coming to an end and we are flooded with stories about the obligation to wear a mouth mask in classrooms. Not all teenagers like this obligation! To make it more bearable for them and to ensure that their well-considered outfit is not spoiled by a boring and ugly mouth mask, we went looking for teen-proof fabrics for a new collection of mouth masks especially for our school-going youth. Young teens, adolescents, girls, boys… (but adults too of course!) We made sure everyone can find something to their liking! In addition, the amount of masks I put into circulation of each type of mouth mask is not that relatively small, so they can put themself in the spotlight with unique, handmade pieces!

Iets origineels op de barbecue

Wil je eens origineel uit de hoek komen tijdens de barbecue? Krijg je een vegetariër over de vloer en weet je niet goed wat te serveren op de barbecue? Of ben je gewoon zelf de chipolata´s en kippenboutjes beu? Ik stel je graag een heerlijk alternatief voor: HALLOUMI!

Hallo wie? Halloumi! Het klinkt erg exotisch en het doet denken aan een Hawaiiaanse groet, maar eigenlijk is het gewoon kaas. “Wat? Kaas op de barbecue???” hoor ik je al denken. Ja, toch wel! Hij smelt niet zoals andere kazen en kan dus gewoon op de gril gegooid worden.

Snijd de kaas in dikke plakken. Meer hoef je niet te doen. Hij heeft al een eerder zoute smaak, dus bijkruiden is niet nodig.

De plakken kaas kunnen gewoon zo met het vlees mee op de barbecue. Af en toe eens omdraaien en klaar in geen tijd. Je hoeft je geen zorgen te maken dat hij niet `gaar´ is, want je kan hem in principe ook gewoon rauw eten.

Maak je de Halloumi voor een vegetariër? Leg hem dan bij voorkeur wel op een plekje waar geen vlees ligt, of leg hem op een klein aluminium schaaltje. Zo krijg je geen vleesvet op je kaas.

Heb je de smaak te pakken gekregen en wil je hem ook graag eten wanneer de barbecue niet aan is? Je kan Halloumi ook gewoon in de pan bakken!

Je vindt Halloumi in de meeste grote supermarkten in het koelvak bij de kazen en hij is erg lang houdbaar.

RECIPE Healty bananapancakes

Gezonde bananenpannenkoeken

Are you craving a delightfull breakfast, lunch or brunch, but are you afraid "tasty" is a synonym for "unhealthy"? Then try out these super simple and delicious banana pancakes!

You don't need many ingredients. You'll need one banana and 2 eggs per person, that's it! Those bananas can even be a little to ripe, don't let them go to waste!

Cut the banana into small slices and open the eggs. Put everything into your blender If you don't have a blender: no problem, just put your ingredients into a bowl and use a mixer.

Mix everything untill you have a smooth batter! Easy peasy!

The endresult should be a light batter. Don't use to much batter per pancake, this way you'll end up with small, thick, fluffy bananapancakes. The look a little bit like an American pancake. You can eat them without topping if you want.
If you prefer bigger bancakes where you and your kids can add some extra toppings? Add 50 grams of flower per person to the mix, aswell as an extra egg and 125 ml of milk. This way you can make large banana pancakes with the consistency of "regular" pancakes.

Don't you start to drool at the mere sight?!?

Gezonde bananenpannenkoeken

What if your children don't like banana? No worries! If nobody tells them they're eating banana, they'll never know. Do realise you'll have to hide the banana peels if you don't want them to find out ;-)
