RECIPE HOMEMADE COCONUT DRINK 🥥♨️ Do you w

RECIPE HOMEMADE COCONUT DRINK 🥥♨️

Do you want to make your own coconut milk or drink? With this recipe, you'll have a much healthier (and more affordable) plant-based milk than most you'll find in the grocery store. And it's so squeaky! By first roasting the coconut, an even deeper and sweeter coconut flavor emerges. Love it! 🥰
I got the two (and only) ingredients at Koro!

Ingredients:
- 100 gr grated coconut
- ½ tl vanilla powder
- 1 l water

Extra needed:
- a blender
- frying pan
- nut milk bag (I used this one from Koro!)

*Use code saudalicious with your order at @koro_pt or @koro_nl (5% discount)👌🏽

How?
1. Toast the grated coconut in a frying pan. Keep stirring continuously until the coconut has turned a golden brown color. Then transfer it to the blender.
2. Add the vanilla and half of the water and blend in the blender for a few minutes until you see almost no chunks left. Add the rest of the water and mix for a few more minutes.
3. Pour the mixture through your cloth or bag over a bowl, and gently squeeze the liquid out of the cloth. Your milk is ready!
4. Warm it up, add some raw cacao and stevia drops @bodyandfit_nl
(Use code SA10 for 10% discount!) And there you have a nice healthy sweet coconut chocolate milk 😍

Bom apetite! 😉

Only thing is, it does not froth... Any tips how to make it frothable without adding sh#t?

RECIPE PORTUGUESE VEGETABLE SOUP 🥕🥄🥬 As

RECIPE PORTUGUESE VEGETABLE SOUP 🥕🥄🥬

As a spice lover, I always use a lot of herbs and spices in soup. But very few spices go into the authentic portuguese vegetable soup recipe.

A variation of the popular Portuguese "sopa de legumes" was still missing on my website.😬 So this time I decided to hold back and go for pure. And to only finish it at the end with fresh herbs and a good drizzle of the best Portuguese olive oil (@passeite_azeite). What I did change was; I left out the potatoes and went for Koro's white beans*. That turned out amazing. Extra creaminess and fiber! I like to eat it as a meal with some canned fish like sardines or mackerel. It's super easy and fast. Let's go!

Ingredients:
- half cauliflower, cleaned and chopped
- 2 medium onions. peeled and sliced
- 1 leek, cleaned and sliced
- 5 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
- 600 g carrots, peeled and chopped
- 600 g butternut squash, peeled and diced
- 2 tbsp organic broth powder from (Koro)
- Black pepper
- 2 cans of white cannellini beans (480 grams) (koro)
- a small oxheart or white cabbage, cut into strips
- fresh parsley for garnish
- extra virgin organic olive oil for a finishing drizzle

*Use code saudalicious with your order at @koro_pt or @koro_nl (5% discount)👌🏽

How?
1. Add all vegetables and the garlic (except the cabbage) in a large soup pot and add the stock powder and pepper.
2. Pour boiling water over the vegetables, but make sure they are not fully under water.This way you get a nice thick soup. As soon as everything softens, everything will be under water. If not, add another splash of water.
3. Meanwhile, wash the cabbage. Cut out the heart and cut the cabbage into thin strips.
4. Drain the white beans and rinse them well. Once the vegetables are cooked and soft, add the beans. Stir well and puree the vegetables with the beans into a creamy, thick soup.
5. Finally, add the cabbage and cook for a few more minutes so that they soften a bit.
6. Scoop up the vegetable soup and finish with a generous drizzle of good, extra virgin olive oil and fresh coriander or parsley.

Bom apetite! 😉

Today was all about reflecting 🪞 Since a while

Today was all about reflecting 🪞 Since a while we do this every January. We talk about themes that are important for us. Like joy, purpose, home, finance, day/week activities, health, family/friends, relationship/love etc. How we feel about it, what we achieved last year, and what we want to remain, get rid off or change in the coming months.

We talk about this very often at random moments, but scheduling a moment to really talk everything trough and writing it down helps a lot to stay conscious about what we want and to make sure we're still heading in the direction of our goals. And ofcourse to check if we are still together on the same ship ⚓ 😜

We always make sure to combine this moment with good food and a nice walk for a break 😊 and we found out today both things are still important for our wellbeing and relationship 😂

Hope to inspire you a bit 😉 Do you pick a moment to consciously reflect with your partner?

PS scroll to the last one for a shameless bathroom pic 😂👌🏽

Def had to use this audio, because it's all about me 😆 (sound on!)

More than 20 weeks we were not sleeping home last year. And mostly it's because of me. "Let's go on a trip!" "Let's go exploring!" "I saw a place we should go to/eat/swim/walk/run/drink/have fun/... "

But ont the other hand I recharge best at home, back in my routine. #extravertedintrovert #addbrain . I hate routine. And I love it. Always did. But I like this way of dealing with it like last months the most 😬.

We're home more than 1 week already...! Wondering how I'm going to ruin this routine I just picked up next 😆

Can you relate?

"Muita chuva!" ☔

Two Portuguese words that I have not heard in one sentence as often as in recent months.😅

It has rained a lot here. We have been lucky that it has stayed dry since we returned from (also rainy) Netherlands. But probably it's not over yet! Fortunately, I am well prepared with this waterproof raincoat from Vaude🥰.

I love it and have already used it in the Netherlands with a nice warm sweater underneath. I especially like the fact that it is functional yet stylish, it's not TOO warm for rainy days in Portugal and it's more sustainable than many other raincoats.🌿 Because Vaude is committed to produce as sustainable as possible and the watertight sealing is made of high-performance PTFE-free membranes👌🏽.

Do you also dress well and just go outside when it's a rainy day or do you prefer to stay inside? 🧥🧤🧦

We used to go on a +/- 3hour hike every Sunday. But it had been a while this time. Ofcourse we were in the Netherlands where we planned a lot of other things, but also before that we prioritized other things, and went for a walk nearby, just for an hour or so.

Today we finally caught up again! 🥰

Wasn't the easiest; a lot of altimeters, strong cold wind and freezing hands. But I loved it 😍

Check the stories for some more images (didn't took too much because eventually couldn't move the hands anymore 🤣).

Yup I know, it could be way worse. But hey, my allergy for cold is one of the reasons I moved right 🤪

Do you like to hike in every weather conditions? Or are you a picky hiker like me 😆?

5 years Saudalicious! 😱🎆

Five years ago, right at the beginning of 2018, the idea popped into my head to create a website. One where I could put my recipes on, and where I could share more about my passion for Portugal. Not knowing nor expecting that now, five years later, I'm still working on Saudalicious almost daily, making recipes and sharing beautiful places of Portugal.

Thanks to you! 💛💛💛

And what I wouldn't believe at all at that time is that five years later I can consider Portugal as my new homeland for 1.5 years. 😊

Today, together with you, I look back on the year 2022, which is also the fifth year that Saudalicious exists. It is also the first year I have spent as a Portuguese resident. What are my highlights, have I achieved my goals, what were the most viewed blogs of the past year? And... what is still to come (with @more.than.a.stay among other things)?😬 You can read it in the blog (link in bio + stories).😘

Feliz 2023! ✨

Hope you had some nice Christmas days and a great New Year's Eve! We did. Even though we had to miss my father for the second time for Christmas and recently had to say goodbye to my grandmother, we enjoyed these days.

Not much new posts over here lately, enjoying some quality time with family and a bit less social media now and than isn't bad for me too 😆

Later on, when home, we will take some time together to reflect last and dream/make plans for coming year..

For now we have some more days left in this grey and rainy country to enjoy and spend with fam and friends 💛

Make it a good one! 🎆
Saúde 🥂

Inbetween all those high end Christmas recipes I g

Inbetween all those high end Christmas recipes I got you one more simple but oh so delicious recipe! 🤗This grilled tofu with Portuguese cebolada is a vegan version of the popular Portuguese tuna dish "atum cebolada". 💚🇵🇹In combination with sweet potato - cauliflower puree, it's a delicious plate full of flavor! And in my opinion, not bad either for a vegan christmas table.

⤵️Recipe for the tofu
(for the full recipe with puree, click on link in bio)

Ingredients:
• 2 blocks of tofu from 200 gr
• juice of one lemon
• 15 cl white wine
• 1,5 el soy sauce
• 2 bay leaves
• 2 big yellow onions, cut into half rings
• 4 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 can peeled tomatoes (400g)
• salt and pepper

🧑‍🍳How to:
1. Carefully squeeze as much moisture as possible from the tofu blocks. It also helps to wrap a clean tea towel around it and put a heavy plate or something else on it for a while.

2. Meanwhile, make the marinade by mixing the lemon, wine, soy sauce and bay leaves.

3. Cut the tofu blocks in half lengthwise, so that you get 4 thin steaks. Let the tofu marinate in the marinade for at least an hour (but preferably a whole night/day!). You can do this in a flat dish or freezer bag so that all the steaks are covered. Turn them occasionally if necessary so that it can retract properly.

4. Place the half onion rings in a frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil and fry for 3 minutes until softened. Then add the garlic, peeled tomatoes, some salt and pepper. Let this simmer until the onions are completely soft.

5. Meanwhile, grill the marinated tofu slices. Remove them from the marinade (save the marinade), and grill them in the grill pan until nice brown grill marks have formed on both sides.

6. Now add the tofu to the soft tomato-onion mixture and also add the marinade.

7. Spoon some puree onto the plates and top with the tofu with the 'cebolada' sauce.

Bom apetite! 😘

RECIPE SAUERKRAUT WITH DATES, FETA AND RED PORTWIN

RECIPE SAUERKRAUT WITH DATES, FETA AND RED PORTWINE ONIONS! 🤤
(recipe below)

A super tasty and a little festive (side) dish. Perfect for adding more veggies, colour and yumminess to the Christmas table! 🎄

Crunchy walnuts, sweet soft dates, spicy rosemary, salty, soft feta cheese and sweet and sour red onions, which have an extra deep taste due to the Port wine...🍷😍 This combination is soooo delicious. And goes perfectly with sauerkraut.

Sauerkraut is not that common in Portugal as it is in The Netherlands. So I'm very glad I can order a nice stock of this shelf stable, healthy fermented vegetable at @koro_nl / @koro_pt I also got the walnuts and super soft and sweet dates from Koro.

Remember: You'll always get 5% discount by using code SAUDALICIOUS! 🫰🏽

RECIPE 👇🏽
Ingredients:
• 1 kg sauerkraut
• 50 gr walnuts (+ some extra for garnish), chopped
• 6 medjool dates, chopped in small pieces
• 1 block of feta cheese
• juice of 1 orange
• 2 to 3 tbs chopped rosemary

For the sweet-sour onions in Port:
• 2 big red onions (or 3 middle sized ones)
• 100 ml water
• 100 ml Port wine
• 30 ml balsamico vinegar
• 1 tbs date syrup

How to?
1. Cut the red onions into thin quarter rings and cook this, together with the other ingredients, gently in a pan over medium heat. Stir occasionally. The onions are ready when all the moisture is gone and the onions are nice, soft and sweet. This takes about 45-60 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
3. Drain the sauerkraut well, scoop into a bowl and mix with the other ingredients for the sauerkraut.
4. Spoon the sauerkraut mixture into a greased baking dish. Leave some space in the center to place the feta in the center
5. Bake for about 20 to 30 minutes before the onions are ready and until the feta has softened.

PS: Also great as a main dish. In that case you could change the propotions and add some more feta or less sauerkraut mixture.

Oh and PPS: did you see it? 👋🏽😜

Bom apetite! ✌🏽

It's time

Time to go back to the Netherlands. Time to be there. For them and for me.

Going back to the Netherlands because we feel like it, because it's nice to see everyone again. Yup, I wish that could be the only reason for a flight or ride back😉

But life also brings us downs. The last time we went back not just for a nice visit was when I lost my dad after a horrible period of fear and false hope💫

This time we were planning to spend the holidays with family and booked a flight a while ago. But we had to advance and extend that flight, because of my poor grandma. She already had dementia and now her body is sick and completely exhausted. She will pass away soon😢

These are the hard things of moving to another country. Watching your loved ones suffer from a distance and having to make hard choices. It's all part of the game..

As with everything, you can't just choose the good things alone, there always are some bad things sticking to it. Acknowledging and accepting this, for me helps to find my own way of dealing with it.

Beginners Eyes 👀

Sometimes I feel like I wanna go back. 💛

To a time when everything inspires me like these nature movements do when I take the time to watch them with attention.

Without sense of time, only with sense of wonder. Like a child 🌈

Wouldn't it be great to have a little bit of that again?

That's why I love to cultivate a beginners mind. To look at daily things with new eyes. It helps me to try to look at things from a perspective of someone else. Someone who never did or saw the thing I do or see on a daily basis.

This can be everything; the way it's feels to walk, the things you see during your daily trip to work, the way it feels to take a warm shower after being cold.

Have you ever tried this? I challenge you to try this too tonight or tomorrow! 🤗💛

Costa Vicentina 🌊

We already knew the north side of this beautiful rough coastline, but the South we did not explore that well yet. Until now! 😍 We started with an amazing morning run from our great stay at @casa.nook to Praia da Ponte Ruiva. In the afternoon, we went to Sagres, Praia do Beliche, and the most South Western point of the Iberian peninsula (Portugal and Spain), Cabo de São Vicente. They used to think this place was "the end of the world" 😊.

Short day today because of an extensive and slow breakfast with nice people and getting back early for work... 🤷🏼‍♀️Tomorrow there's a new day! 🤗

We love this area and we are even dreaming of buying some land or old house to build a future Winter-house here in this area! Who knows 😬

Recipe Winter Lentil Salad with Pumpkin and Feta 🎃🌰🥬🧀🌸

Salads are not only for summer days!

This easy, versatile winter salad with lentils, pumpkin and feta is ideal to prep, take with you or serve when you have visitors. It is even tastier with the sweet dressing of date syrup and orange. Let's go:

🍴Ingredients 4-6p:

• 300 g uncooked brown lentils (I used the biological ones from koro, you'll always get -5% with code saudalicious)
• 750 gr pumpkin (hokkaido or butternut squash), in cubes
• half a red cabbage, cut into strips
• spices: cumin seed, paprika powder, garlic powder, cinnamon, salt and pepper
• 1 pomegranate
• 250 g feta, crumbled
• 80 gr pecan nuts, roasted (also Koro 😍)

for the dressing:
• 3 tbsp orange juice
• 2 tbsp date syrup
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp olive oil

🧑‍🍳How To:
1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and line a baking tray with baking paper. Spread the pumpkin cubes and red cabbage strips on top. Drizzle some olive oil over it and season generously with the spices. Bake for about 40-50 minutes until everything is cooked through and crispy.
2. Boil the lentils until al dente and drain. Then let them cool down for a while.
3. Remove the pomegranate seeds from the pomegranate by first massaging them well by rolling them in your hands, then cut into quarters and push the outside of each part inwards so that a large part comes off by itself. You can loosen the rest with your hands or a spoon.
4. Chop the pecan nuts and roast them in a dry frying pan or 2 minutes in the airfryer at 180 degrees.
5. Make the dressing by putting all the ingredients together in a bowl and stirring well with a small whisk or spoon.
6. Put the lentils, roasted vegetables, pomegranate seeds together in a large bowl and crumble the feta over it. Pour (part of) the dressing over it and finish with your pecans. Stir everything together well.
Bom apetite!
