08.10.2025 high five cookies

I love efficiency..and that includes cooking.
So I always try to modify or create recipes that not only taste good,
but also provide the best possible benefit for my body.
These cookies are gluten-free, optionally free from conventional sugar
(depending on the chocolate used), and particulary suitable for sensitive,
inflammation-prone bodies and tooth-friendly diets.
Each cookie contains about 60mg of magnesium, which covers up
to 20% of the daily requirement and making these cookies
a true functional treat.

Ingredients

• 100g millet (ground into flour)
• 150g oats (ground into flour)
• 100g butter
• 1 egg
• 90g milk chocolate chips
• 40g xylitol
• 20g erythritol
• grated lemon zest
• pure vanilla powder

Nutrition Highlights per cookie:

• 440kcal
• 60mg magnesium (15-20% of daily requirement)
• gluten-free
• refined sugar-free option (depending on chocolate used)
• supports inflammation-sensitive diets & tooth frindly eating

24.09.2025 low budget high level food



All of this for only 18€ with everything organic (except the mini bell peppers and the red Chinese cabbage).
For me, it’s a triple gain: spending less, avoiding the big retail chains, and still enjoying the best quality.
And truly, living healthily on a small budget is far easier than one might expect, once you know what you really need and where to find it.
There are so many reasons why it’s worth visiting local markets and international food stores and turning away from the big chains.

19.09.2025 dark season tea



It´s that time of year when the day starts in the dark.
So grateful for my warm and safe home,
where I can slowly watch the leaves change color.
And this tea tastes exactly like that feeling.


15.09.2025 good morning



Got a huge batch of organic ginger for super cheap on the market, mixed it with
orange juice + pure sea buckthorn and drink one shot in the morning for vitamin c
and antioxidants.
That instant spice ginger kick is wild and perfect for sleepy mornings.

09.09.2025 ..try again



Okay. I baked my recipe again and added 30g of flour and 10g of sugar to the base.
It tourned out super delicious again!
But now I need a break from poppy seeds.

King oyster mushrooms sautéed in extra virgin olive oil and lightly browned
with a touch of salt are a perfect example of simplicity in flavor.
Mild, yet full of umami thanks to natural glutamic acid.
