An update from Belgium

Hi guys =p

This easter i went to Belgium to be with my bf who lives in Antwerpen =p I came here on sunday and will go back on tuesday together with my bf, so i'll be bit more than a week here =p

From the airport in Bergen

I travelled via Copenhagen, and my 2nd plane was 1.5 hours delayed (happens quite often i think that there are delays xD)
My luggage also got lost on the way, but luckily they found it next day and brought it to me =D As compensation for my lost luggage i got a kit with some toothbrush, toothpaste, deo, hairbrush etc to survive the night without my luggage so that was pretty nice =p

So far i havent done a lot, my bf has still school this week, so i've been following him there, and tried to do some schoolwork of my own too (still laying some behind :x), but i typically ended up on fb or so xD

The weather has been nice, but cold.

Today we went on a trip where my bf showed me where he used to live (was pretty close to where he lives now). Was really nice to see =D

Me and some statue

My bf with the same statue

My bfs old home (jk ofc xd)

Fancy house, ofc need posing pic xd

Me posing too =p

We also went into a shop where i found vegan candy! =D So tested out two of them, the chocobanana and the fruit jelly things (made with agar-agar and not gelatine, and no carmine or milk in it either ;p)

Looked tempting to enter xd

Middle row is vegan =D (ignore top row and lowest row xd)
Btw check ingredients first to be sure, i didnt check everything

Candy we bought =p I ate half already @_@

I was hoping the bananas would be skum bananas like i used to eat before, but they were jelly bananas (it actually says on too :>) but they were still good ofc =p Fruit jellies were kinda sugary and not so chewy as some jelly might be, but they were good too =p Now i got sugar shock @_@

Hope rest of the vacation will be nice too =D

Broccoli risotto

Just gonna admit immediately, my risottoes arent made like risottos but like rice with veggies. I'm too lazy to add bit and bit with water and use special risotto rice, so i just add everything at the same time and use normal rice.

Oh well, heres the recipe inspired by the broccoli risotto at vegandad.

Ingredients:
0.5 onion
1/3 broccoli
0.75 dl rice
2.5+ dl water
1 bullion cube
0.5 ts oregano
Margarine/oil
Nutritional yeast (optional)
Salt and pepper

Chop the onion and saute it. Add the rice, then the water and bullion cube, followed by the oregano and broccoli in small pieces. Let it boil to water is gone, add more water if nessesary. When ready, taste with nutritional yeast, salt and pepper and some margarine if you wanna =p

Easy peasy


Here served with tomatoes with salt and pepper, and sauted mushrooms with salt and pepper and soy sauce.

Chili sin carne

This used to be my favorite dish =D

I dont remember exactly how much i use of everything, normally i do so the ratio looks more or less good and taste if it needs more of something xD

Well, heres the ingredients (from memory):
0,5 medium-small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
Some chili, chopped (optional)
2 small potatoes, in cubes
0.5 red bell pepper, in cubes
Paprika/chili powder
1 vegetable bullion cube
Around 3 dl water (i dont remember how much i use, i just add something, and depends how liquid you want it, i just add more water if i feel its needed)
Basil spice, oregano spice (i normally use shitloads xd)
+- 250g (0.5 jar) pastasauce
0.5 can of kidneybeans

Saute the onion, garlic, potatoes, chili and red bell pepper. Add the paprika/chili powder, water, bullion cube and basil/oregano and let it boil for 5-10 min. Add the pasta sauce, then add the kidneybeans and let it boil bit more. And always remember to taste meanwhile if you need more of something =p
