Strawberry jelly

I've posted on facebook that I would post a new recipe.
But I've got a visit of a friend and I had to do my nails.
Sometimes you must spoil yourself. And lately I spoil myself a lot with a lot of clothes.
It was time to do my nails they were way too long.
So now it is evening and I must send an e-mail to my diabetes specialist for my glucose values. I hope they will be good now.
A diet did not work for me, I was eating already very healthy according to dietitian. So it's because of my hormones.



But now let's talk about my new recipe.
It's the time of the strawberry. And I wanted to do something with this. And it must be healthy, fun and yummie.
So I came up with this. A strawberry jelly.

What you need:
gelatin Leaves
Strawberries
water
vanille extract
maple syrup
shredded coconut


Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water.
Put some water, maple syrup and vanille extract in to a pan and let it boil for a minute.
Squeeze the gelatine leaves out and put them in to the pan and let it melt.
Put in a glass some strawberries and add the jelly water in the glass.
Let it cool down before you put it in to the fridge.
Let it stiffen in to the fridge for about 2 hours.
Top it off with some shredded coconut.

Here's a treat for yourself for these hot days.
And with a nice magazine this looks quite chic.



Why was the strawberry late for work?
He was in a jam

a little strawberry snack

I love strawberries. And how hard it is to keep my food in. I've just had to try these.
I've got some new medicine sow maybe with a little bit of luck, I can finally keep my food inside of my stomach.

These strawberries are stuffed with Greek yogurt and sprinkeld with hemp seeds.
It's yummie and easy.

strawberries, rhubarb cobbler


In an earlier blog I've told you that a friend of mine came by for a little lunch so I've made a strawberries, rhubarb cobbler.

A cobbler is a pastry which consists of a layer of fruit, wich has a layer of dough on it.

Rhubarb May not be the most popular vegetable on the produce stand, but it still makes a pretty tasty jam.
Rhubarb is an excellent source of Vitamin C, Which is important to help support a healthy immune system. It is high in dietary fiber All which helps to maintain regularity within the digestive system.
Rhubarb is low in sodium and saturated fat All which makes it a very good food to help preventable heart related diseases. It is usefull high in Vitamin K, Which is thought to help preventable diabetes.
Rhubarb is an unusual vegetable and Often thought of as a fruit. It is an excellent and healthy food to add to your diet as it can be prepared and served in many different fashions. Although rhubarb can be tart, it has a sweetness that comes alive when cooked.

Here is the recipe:
2 tbsp cornstarch 
500 grams rhubarb 
300 grams of strawberries (halved) 
1 tbsp water 
15 grams of butter 
1 tsp ground cinnamon 
1 beaten egg 
stevia to taste 
puff pastry

Preheat the oven on 200 degrees. 
In a saucepan: Add the rhubarb, strawberries and water, let it boil for one minute. Add the cornstarch and optionally some stevia. Scoop it into a greased baking dish. Spread the lumps of butter and cinnamon over it.

Normally you make the dough on your own. But I did not have time for that so I've used puff pastry.
Spread the pastry over it. Add the beaten egg over the pastry.
Put it in the oven for 20 minutes  until the top is golden brown and crispy.
