Save this post to save the tips about Lisbon & (Serra da) Lousã.

Our November was all about autumn and a lot of good food!😋 At home, we enjoyed the seasonal fruits and cooking. (Invented some new dishes and was thinking about making an e-book with the recipes I share in my stories, what do you think!?) We enjoyed the gastronomic festival in Santarém (@festival.nacional.gastronomia), our own village's little festival @festasamiaisdebaixo (but the real one is yet to come in February 😉 and some other nice moments with friends. We played some padel (together and finally with Christel and Thomas from @casa_simplicity)😉

And we went on two little trips this month:

Lisbon:
During our 2 days in Lisbon I got a haircut at @evashairpt (they specialize in curls)💇🏼‍♀️. What did we do besides that? Walking, eating, walking, and eating 😏 This time: a delicious lunch at @localyourhealthykitchen, a super nice dinner at @maerestaurante, and a very special lunch at @cicerobistrot. We couldn't leave without a quick healthy dinner at @honestgreens_pt!

Serra da Lousã:
We had a wonderful stay and culinary retreat at @arealquinta (have you seen the reel we made?😍). We also did a stunning hike (PR2) which started at the castle of Lousã and led to some beautiful schist villages Casal Novo and Talasnal (definitely worth a visit!)🏰⛰️🥾. On our way back home we decided to take a detour via a beautiful road through the mountains (N236), where we stopped in another beautiful schist village named Candal. Just driving there is worth it! We also saw two deer standing along the road, just at the moment I was filming.🦌 It was a little bit foggy which made it even more magical 💫🤩

Sooo did you enjoy your food as much as we did last month? 😏

Recipe vegan protein Chocolate Rosemary Cake Ther

Recipe vegan protein Chocolate Rosemary Cake

There cakes are super easy to make and such a treat for breakfast (or snack) ☺️

🧺Ingredients for 12 cakes:
• 450 gr date paste (or soft dates). I used the date paste from @yogiyousef
• 70 gr organic cocoa powder
15 gr ground rosemary (you can buy powder or just grind dried rosemary)
• 150 gr almond butter
• 450 gr of natural(!) plant-based protein powders or a mix (like pea-, rice-, or hemp protein without additions and flavours).
• Juice (around 80 ml) + zest of one orange
• 220 ml water (or ginger/spicy tea)

👩🏽‍🍳How:
1. Blend the dates, cacao powder, rosemary, almond paste orange juice, and zest in a food processor, until smooth (while blending, add half of the water/tea)
2. Add the protein powders and blend again until smooth while adding slowly the rest of the water/tea.
2. Press the mixture into a large oven dish, decorate it if you like, store it in the fridge for about an hour or more, and cut it into 12 pieces.
3. Like it warm and less sticky? Bake the cake you are going to eat for 5 mins in the air fryer at 180 C.
4. Bom Apetite! 😋

You can also freeze them to save them longer!

Save this reel 💡

You can of course vary with the ingredients, with or without orange, add some spices or whatever you like🤸🏽.

Just make sure to always use natural protein powders, no flavoured powders with additions. The dates, cocoa and rosemary are here to make the flavour delicious!

I like to use equal parts of each pea-, rice- and hemp protein powder. This way you will get the most health benefits of the range of amino acids in the plant based proteins 🌱.

I sometimes also add (substitute) around 90 gr collagen. This isn't vegan of course, so this is optional :). I ordered all these protein sources at @Prozis. DM me for the link and use SAUDALICIOUS to get -10% off.👌🏽

Do you know that feeling? The feeling of having a mind dancing between different ideas? 🤯 My mind never stops 😅. And when I just go with that flow, my days will be filled with just random things I like. And most of the time, I love it!

But sometimes all these ideas can overwhelm me and it results in doing nothing at all 🫣. Also, that multitude of interests sometimes makes it challenging to settle on just one and it results in forgetting some things I liked to do. In this case, Food Photography📸. I totally forgot how much I like to do that!

Yesterday I wanted to film a reel to share the recipe for these protein-packed chocolate rosemary cakes 🍫🌿, but the second I started filming, it started to get darker and darker outside 🌥️☁️... This gave me the idea to make a photo of it today, just in case I couldn't use the films I made.

Well, eventually, I'm not very happy with the pictures either 😁. Hahaha Soooo I just decied to embrace imperfection and share this one AND the reel (later)🤸🏽.

Hope I can still make you happy with the recipe of these nice cakes, which is our new favourite way to break the fast in the morning before our workout! It contains 32 grams of protein for just 330 kcal 😍.

Soooo tell me, would you like to know the recipe? ⤵️

Okay, that last clip was tbh just for Dennis but turned out to be a funny ending 😬

Carina from @terrabiofoodco.almeirim invited us to come by and try some of the new dishes they just added to the menu. We've already been here before so I knew it was good! The vibe is so nice and the dishes are beautifully presented. 👌🏽This brunch restaurant is a modern and unique addition to the area, making it a true gem!

Some of the new dishes we tried were the cheese starters; warm camembert with honey and herbs and burrata with a spicy tomato sauce 😍. Then we shared two bowls. The new one is the Chili bowl with spicy beans, guacamole, rice, scrambled egg, and pico de gallo. Very nice! The tofu bowl wasn't new but very delicious too.

Desserts were not new but were very good (and we already knew that😏). To finish this amazing lunch we had some hot drinks; the homemade cacao with chantilly and for me the apple cinnamon latte. That last one was totally my "cup of tea" 😍

This place is nice for everyone, whether you are vegan, a meat-eater, health-conscious, a sweet-tooth or a pet 😉

Can't do without this anymore 💛

I really need some time in nature, moving, surrounded by 100 shades of green (and sometimes some other colors lately 🍂).

It helps me clear my mind and be mindful and grateful. To just let everything else be for a while.

Do you have something that you love to do daily?

Also, how wonderful is it that we can still walk in shorts in November 😍🙏🏽. I even took off that sweater a few minutes after this picture.

Looking for a nice dinner for a special occasion in Lisbon? 🍽️

We were invited to try some of the (signature) dishes of Cicero Bistrot. This is not just a restaurant, but a unique experience! 😍🎨

The dishes are influenced by the three countries the painter Cicero Dias lived in; Brazil, Portugal, and France. I guess the reel says enough 😏 Right?

Save this reel for your next Lisbon visit!

A few weeks ago we met chef @joaodiogomendes at the gastronomic festival in Santarém @festival.nacional.gastronomia . We tried some of his dishes which we really loved! 😋

When we told him we were going to Lisbon, he invited us to visit his restaurant "Mãe", which means "mother" in Portuguese.

We loved every single dish and drink! My favorite one was the "Pica pau do mar". Pica pau is a traditional Portuguese dish, normally made of small beef or pork pieces, in a super nice sauce made of beer, garlic, mustard, and more. But here they used octopus, shrimp, and sea bream. Lovely!

Also the service is totally on point and I gotta love the concept! 🥰

Thank you @maerestaurante for this special evening!

Read more about this retreat ⤵️

We were invited by Tom and Alison from @arealquinta to join the first edition of their culinary weekend retreat. Well, a retreat with food as the leading role, sounded exactly like something for us 😏.

We stayed in their beautiful independent cottage and came a day earlier to also enjoy the stunning nature of Serra da Lousã around the Quinta🍂

We felt totally spoiled by the yoga classes, amazing extensive brunches, and next-level vegan fine dining experiences 😍. Everything was taken care of. Alison is the best yoga teacher and Marit and Gino blew us away with their appealing and tasty vegan food.

Marit (@maritseetatelier) also taught us a lot about how to take your vegan dish to a next level by using creative and different kinds of seasonings that cover all five traditional flavors (with umami being an important one).

In between these activities, we enjoyed the hot tub and ofcourse cuddling with the animals. I mean... I want donkeys as pets now too!😬🫏

And the good news for you? It was a big success, so there is more to come! 🤩 The next edition will be in April. There's a good chance that you will be able to enjoy the delicious food under the trees on the Quinta's land by then! But ofcourse you can also just stay at this beautiful place!

So give @arealquinta a follow to keep updated or just to follow all the other things they do and offer (or just for their cute animals)😉.

Question for you... Could you think about one of

Question for you...

Could you think about one of the recent times you felt really happy? Where were you, and with who? What were you doing? Did it cost you a lot (of effort, time, money, struggles) to get there?

Probably not...

For me, most of the time it was moments that I can repeat and are not that much dependent on other things except my own thoughts and feelings I decided to share.

For me these are often moments with my love (a hug, a kiss, a look, a touch, a word), but also moments when I'm alone, staring at a rainbow, some flowers in the wind, a sunset, or just the rain (yup really, it's me ;)). Or maybe a moment when I hear a song and sing and dance not caring about the world for a minute.

And the best thing about it?

This insights really help to put things in perspective when you are feeling down or sad or angry about something small. It helps me to write my lucky moments down and just repeat them when I want to feel a bit better before I drown more into these negative thoughts.

What was your most recent happy little moment?

Extra tips below!⤵️

(Oops, not September but October ofcourse!) 😅

Our month of October was a quiet one in comparison to the previous summer months. ⛈️Because of the rain, we were more at home, adapting (ourselves and the house) to this new season, chilling, cooking, and doing some more online sessions for our freelance job, and I've been working on this big e-book for accommodation holders @more.than.a.stay again.

This means fewer nice tips for you to explore in Portugal. But of course, I do have a few random tips that are worth visiting! 😏

Tomar: a beautiful city! When you go there, make sure to check out castelo do bode (and we discovered another nice riverbeach "Vila Nova Praia Fluvial") and the aqueduct "dos Pegões". I did not film this, but we had a super nice dinner at @insensato.cafe.livraria. This time it was a pop-up dinner but we already knew this café. 😍It's super cute. They have super delicious (and healthy) food, a nice terrace, a cozy space inside, good cake and they even sell books.

Leiria: We love this city😇! We went to the shopping to get some stuff for the house and after that a stroll through the city center never disappoints 🙂 Our favorite restaurant is @atlasleiria, but we decided to try something new this time. We had a nice Indian dinner at @everestinn_leiria and we LOVED it! They make the curry exactly as spicy as you want it. They have some classics, but also more creative ones like a curry with bacalhau. 😋That one was very nice!

Also, this month we had a super nice lunch and party at friends of us who live nearby Dornes (go check out this cute place a few reels back). Corrina and Martijn celebrated their first year in Portugal and this was our first time we saw their property in real life. The place is amazing and the houses they rent are super cute! 🤗Go check @quintaflores.eu.

I love to explore, but I also enjoyed this month of slowing down and getting used to this new season🍂. I guess this month we will be exploring a bit more. How do you feel now autumn really started?

Our third time at the national Gastronomy Festival

Our third time at the national Gastronomy Festival in Santarém. Definitely our kind of festival. One that's all about good food 😍.

Here, you can taste a bit of Portugal from north to south. A lot of Portuguese restaurants and chefs are represented. Also you can buy a lot of local products and enjoy some 'show cooking'.

We especially love the little special dishes "petiscos" from Portuguese chefs. Hard not to try all of them but we did taste a lot! We especially loved the chilled tomato soup with bacalhau from chef @joaodiogomendes from @maerestaurante in Lisbon and the torricado de cordoniz from @chefjoaosimoes from @casta_85 in Lisbon.

It's still going on this weekend so, take your chance! 😉

Saudades do verão ☀️ How many days till summ

Saudades do verão ☀️

How many days till summer starts? 😂 A while ago (when I still lived in the Netherlands) I promised myself I will book one trip to the winter sun every winter. The first winter after we didn't. What happened? Life. I moved to Portugal, my father became sick, got operated and eventually passed away. So the warmest place to be that winter was back in the Netherlands with all my loved ones.

The year after that, we were in Holland again, but mostly here in Portugal, on trips with some sun and some rain. Better winter than I ever had, but still... 😅

So this year, finally we managed to get some tickets to escape the winter for just a few weeks ☀️🥰. Cape Verde it is! We have already been to Santiago and Maio. This time it's Santo Antão and São Vicente. Excited 😊

Have you ever been to Cape Verde?

Comment SIM below and receive my free doc with tips about how to learn Portuguese without going to class! 🇵🇹

"How's your Portuguese?"

As you might know, I'm half Dutch, half Portuguese but unfortunately I'm not raised bilingually.

So, I learned the basics of Portuguese during the few weeks per year/2 years of vacation in Portugal. As a child I wasn't shy and just talked with whatever words I knew (supported by nonverbal talking with hands and feet 😅). This helped me a lot!

I think it's the most important in learning whatever language: just do it! This way you learn the things that are of your interest the quickest. Dennis for example already knows how speak fluently in the context of a restaurant 😬.

And now, since we live here I feel like chatting isn't enough to learn the language fluently. I can talk with anyone in any situation, but can't say all the things I would like to say. For the deeper conversations we need a little bit more studying.

That's why we also use other ways of studying. We don't like classes so we collected a few on- and offline ways that work best for us!

If you also want to learn Portuguese I got your back! I made an overview of our 6 favourite and fun ways to learn Portuguese.

After rain...

Come waterfalls!

💚

Since I live in Portugal, I feel like I'm so much closer to nature. We really have to adapt way more to the weather conditions, heat, but especially cold and humidity, etc. In general, houses are built for the summer season, so these things are a challenge sometimes. Also, we got used to being outside a lot, so also during rainy days, we need some hours of fresh air!

But you know what's funny? I like the fact that we have to adapt quickly, it makes you so much more aware of seasons, the power of nature, and your own vulnerability. I have come to appreciate all the seasons and feel stronger precisely because of that clearer vulnerability.

Okay let's stay honest here, rain is still not my favorite weather condition 😅. And cliché but true; without rain no green fields, plants, food, or... beautiful waterfalls like these! Just a few weeks ago we were here and this was just a bunch of rocks.

Nature is amazing. Don't you think?
