I have been working very hard for the last few years to consume less and be more conscious of what I buy. I love shopping from @unwrapped_co and it is a great solution for dry ingredients and zero waste products delivered to your door. But it is still hard to go 100% zero waste!! So I thought while we are all still at home it would be great to chat to Marlies from @unwrapped_co and ask a few questions about her zero-waste journey and business.
See you at 16:00 tomorrow afternoon.

Would love if you could join in on the discussion, we are both trying something new or as @brenebrown would call it a FFT so come and and wave or ask a question so we don't look like fools talking to ourselves.🙈🤣

Lunch scenes today. Mackerel & Apple salad.
How do I know my kids are not into a meal? Other than telling me🙈 They take the longest time to eat, like an hour long.I am sure the salad would have been more popular if I did not put salad dressing over their salad. I will remember next time.
I am struggling to eat salad when it is cold but really enjoyed this one today.

Ingredients
2 portions smoked mackerel
2 apples thinly sliced
1/2 cucumber thinly sliced
A few radishes thinly sliced
Rocket
Feta
Handful of toasted walnuts

Salad dressing
3 tbs apple cider vinegar
6 tbs olive oil.
2tbs honey
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 tbs chopped dill
Salt and black pepper

Layer salad and drizzle with dressing
Enjoy! .

Berry guava smoothie, I am still keeping up with my smoothies but I don't know for how much longer. The winter is coming🧤🧣 I also tried something new this month, I got a tub of vanilla @kauaiglobal pea protein to add to my smoothies. It seems you can add it to any baking. Still need to try that. I like the taste if I don't add too much. The ingredient list is short and seems above board.
I do think it helps to keep me fuller. I am still learning about supplements, protein powders etc. Do we need them? Which ones are the best? I just find them so expensive!! Especially if you start buying for a family.

I would love to know your thoughts on protein powders and supplements. Do you use them. Which ones would you recommend? There is a long list I want to try.

Stop and see the beauty.
The world outside is crazy right now but you can create beauty around you.

It is my husband's birthday today and 29 years ago my sister also died in a car crash on 9 May. The bitter sweetness of life.

My daughter wanted to make a gift for her dad and decided to do 12 paintings and make it into a calendar. We will get it professionally printed after lockdown.

She always has great ideas, but seldom finish her projects, but we did it 🤗 She feels so proud of herself!! We did not do any schoolwork yesterday, but she learned alot about painting and different painting techniques. 🎨

I am also very impressed with her gift wrapping skills. She has been watching me🙈

The picture frame was a joined project by me and my 6 year old.

Dad loved our gifts!! Birthdays and pancakes are our go to.
The pretty cloth was from a little project we did last week by bashing leafs and flowers with a hammer. I saw it on @kimgraylifestyle IG page. Turned out really pretty.

I want to turn it into a table runner as a keepsake from our time at home.
We still need to bake a cake and then we are planning to camp in the backyard tonight🙈 I am sure the kids will love it, I on the other hand need some positive motivation.🏕 Have a great weekend! .

On Sunday I made hummus again, so here is the recipe on the slides and tips you have been asking for.

You can do this with dried chickpeas or tinned chickpeas but for this post I will focus on dried chickpeas.

Soak the dried chickpeas overnight and boil for about 1 hour. I never timed this step, just cooked it until soft. When draining reserve about 100ml of the cooking water.

Chickpeas triple in size so you need less raw chickpeas. But I boiled about 2 cups to use in other recipes.

Tips:
🌿 Don't add olive oil to the hummus recipe but drizzle olive oil over hummus before serving.
🌿I love to add a sprinkle of smoked paprika on top of my hummus.
🌿 Seal hummus with lid or cover to prevent drying out.
🌿 Add 3 ice cubes when blending hummus, it really helps to aerate the hummus.
🌿 Use the agaufaba (brine) from a tin or the water that the chickpeas boiled in to loosen the hummus
🌿 Use warm chickpeas when blending, so just heat in water to warm through if using tinned.
🌿 This is a bit extra but rub the chickpeas in a cloth and remove the skin for extra smooth hummus
🌿Boil chickpeas in salt and a sprinkle of cumin for extra flavour.
🌿 Use a large serving spoon to create perfect pool of hummus for serving.
🌿I only use 1tbs of tahini, you can use more, some recipes even use 1 cup, but tahini is pricey so I kept it moderate.
🌿Blend hummus for at least 2 minutes to get it extra creamy.
🌿Season with plenty of salt and lemon juice.
🌿 I created extra recipes with beetroot, carrot and slow roasted tomato hummus but will keep them for my e-book.

Hope this helps

This face is going to be on Instagram live today with @mamamagicsa at 10am talking all things cooking and how to get your kids involved in the kitchen. Hopefully I can share some helpful nuggets. These strange times really get's us out of our comfort zones. 🙄It also got me blow drying my hair for the first time in 7 weeks🤣 See you there.
