Healthy chocolate


I opet čokolada. Već svi znaju koliko sam slaba na nju. Stižu dobre vesti – čokolada može biti korisna po naše zdravlje! :) Pogotovo ona sa min. 70% kakaoa, pa ako još tu dodate pojačanje u vidu lešnika, badema, borovnice, brusnice…to dodje kao užina zdrava za rad srca, i štiti od stresa. Čak se preporučuje i mlečna čokolada, ali u jutarnjim satima kada je metabolizam najbrži; i jedna tabla bonžite/welnessa posle treninga, da bi se nadoknadile izgubljene rezerve šećera iz organizma. 
Šta čekate sad, pravac po svoju kockicu omiljene čokolade, bez krivice! :)

And again chocolate. But this time - its benefits for our health. The healthiest chocolate is dark with min. 70% cocoa in it, and if it is with nuts or dried fruit, it's even better. It prevents heart attack and stress. It's also good to eat milk chocolates in the morning, because then metabolism works faster. Or you can enjoy in you favourite chocolate bar after training, so in that case you can recover your sugar level in body. So now go eat your favourite chocolate - guilt free! :)

Prvi zdravi način da uživate u čokoladi - otopite crnu čokoladu sa jednom kašičicom meda i putera, i to neka vam posluži kao umak za komadiće banane i oraha.
***
Melt the chocolate with 1 teaspoon honey and butter, and serve the sauce with walnuts and banana chunks for dipping.

Kajsije prepolovite, prelijete tamnom čokoladom i seckanim pistaćima; ohladite u frižideru pre posluženja.
***
Dip half of each apricot in melted chocolate and sprinkle with chopped pistachios. Let chocolate set in fridge.

Preko niskokaloričnog čokoladnog pudinga (u koji uvek možete dodati komadiće čokolade :) izmrvite lanene/ovsene/kukuruzne pločice. Ili bilo koji integralni keks po želji.
***
Crush graham cracker and sprinkle over low-fat chocolate pudding.

Napravite brownie po omiljenom receptu, samo ubacite tamnu nezasladjenu čokoladu umesto obične, jogurt bez masti umesto punomasnog, itd. Ukapirali ste suštinu :)
***
Make brownie with high-quality unsweetened dark chocolate and plain nonfat yogurt instead of regular.

Za užinu uzmite šaku koštunjavog voća prelivenog čokoladom.
***
For snack eat some chocolate covered nuts.

Na lanene/ovsene/kukuruzne pločice ili bilo koji integralni keks po želji namažite rastopljenu čokoladu.
***
Cover graham crackers with chocolate.

Enjoy! :)

Inspiration: Sunny Balconies


Razmišljam o jednom ovakvom već duže vreme. Razmišljaću dok se ovaj sneg ne udostoji da nestane. Ne treba mi veliki balkon, i mali je dovoljan za uživanje. Rustičan, sa cvećem, suncem, ponekim pićem i kvalitetnim društvom/dobrom knjigom. Pored mora ili okružen prirodom. I to je sve. Sezona lenčarenja može da počne! :)
***
I've been thinking about a balcony like this for a while. I don't need big one; small, rustic, with flowers & lots of sun, drinks, good company or book will do. And that's all. Let the laziness begin :)


Ovaj se nalazi u Španiji, i videli ste ga u OVOM postu
You've already seen this one HERE




Ja bih se zadovoljila i ovako nečim.... savršen kutak za uživanje :)
I would love to have a corner like this to enjoy in it :)

Uživajte u nedelji... / Have a nice Sunday...

Happy Lab



Varijacije čokolade u neobičnim i originalnim pakovanjima? Sign me in! 
Happy Lab nam dolazi iz daleke Australije. A tamo - čokolade, kokice prelivene karamelom, žele bombone, čokoladne lizalice, lešnici/bademi...opet preliveni čokoladom. Raj za čokoholičare kao što sam ja. Još kada bi nas posetili kod nas. Najbolji deo je što su radnici obučeni u bele laboratorijske mantile. And let the experiments begin! :)
