I´m back at work after one amazing week in the south of France. Filled with love, color and a suitcase filled with dried plants and flowers, my new passion.
My parents live outside Grasse so I went with my daughter, escaping the chillier north for the MUCH warmer south. Sun, fun and healthy food. Yoga every morning and just beeing.
While there I made this the raw cacao chia pudding which replaced the chocolate croissant breakfast at least for one day.... But as they say when in Rome ;)
Cacoa cream.
1 virgin coconut meat and water.
Raw coconut butter about 2 tbs.
1 dl of raw cacao.
2 tbs of raw honey.
1 pinch of salt.
Mix till smooth. Depending on how meaty the coconut is you might need some extra meat if you want it extra creamy.
Let 1 dl of chia seeds sit in coconut milk for at least 30-40 minutes. best if left over night.
Layer the cacao cream with the chia seed mix. Top of with some cacao nibs if you want some crunch.
Oh and the photo of the surya mango salad snack on the plane and of me dishing up some 70´s style open salad are taken by my daughter Vera.
