@shadow-pancake9 @is-the-cat-video-cute What do you think of this?
you know what, turmeric seems to be safe for cats and even sometimes given as a supplement, and as far as ways to dye your cat colors go this is probably one of the safest? but you can also just like. give your cat a flea bath with actual medicine.
This Golden Milk Smoothie makes you feel good from the inside out. Perfect for the warm weather.
Do you remember my golden milk latte recipe? In that post, I talked about how much I loved having that latte in the morning and sometimes at night. But the days have slowly turned warmer here in Puerto Rico, and hot drinks are starting to not be very suitable for the sunny weather. Basically, now that…

Ditch the dairy with this vegan Mac and No-Cheese Recipe! Try this creamy cashew-cheese alternative to that dairy stuff, that will leave you satisfied in your decision to leave the cows alone. I’m pretty sure we all have our stories with that boxed Mac & Cheese; this is not that kind.

This 5-Bean Salad combines black, pinto, garbanzo, cannellini, and kidney beans, onions, and garlic, tied together with fresh avocado! This super simple salad is perfect for lunch or a nice addition to dinner. I study and work which means that my three favorite things when it comes to food are: 1. easy to make, 2. cheap, and 3. full of delicious flavor. That’s why, I love bean salads, along with…
Going Vegan is a whole lot more than learning to make bolognese without meat & dairy-free ice cream. Most people eat and wear animal products and rely on a multitude of products that are tested on animals. I have to admit to being guilty of this. Living in Island has a lot of cons, one of them being having limited access to other vegan products that are not food; like beauty, skincare, and…
Turmeric Cauliflower with Golden Raisins
Sweet, tangy, and savory. This vegetarian-friendly and gluten-free side dish is fun balance between multiple flavors. It definitely jazzes up whatever vegetables dishes you usually serve for dinner. Oh, and the yellow color? That’s from the turmeric!
This side dish served about 4-6 people, but it could be easily annihilated by 2-3 people who really love pickles. (Oh god, the mere mention of pickles put some of you off didn’t it? I swear it’s not like that!)
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 large onion, sliced
- ½ tsp. turmeric
- 1 large cauliflower (about 1 ½ pounds), trimmed and cut into large florets
- Salt and pepper
- ¼ c. light brown sugar
- ½ c. golden raisins
- ½ teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- 2 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tbsp. parsley leaves
- 2 tbsp. pepitas
In a large, heavy pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring, until fragrant and slightly browned. Add turmeric and cauliflower.
Season with salt and pepper (I used about 1 tsp. salt and a few turns on the pepper grinder). Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add brown sugar, raisins, lemon zest and juice. Turn up heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is just tender.
Remove pot from heat, taste and add additional salt if desired. Let it cool to touch. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with parsley leaves and pepitas.
I have horrible eczema breakouts and I don’t like using my prescribed medication because there are too many complications involved. I started using turmeric when I have an eczema breakout and it has been a help. It’s safe, easy and affordable. The most important benefit is that it’s a natural product and has other uses too. It also helps reduce acne and look of dark spots too.

I was not very active recently…not even somehow active. I didn’t feel to post anything and I didn’t have anything to post. I was not into cooking at all.
This simple meal with beans is the only meal I cooked last week. I am sharing this recipe because it is not necessary to cook complicated meals with various ingredients. Sometimes you need to make something very basic to come back to normal life. For me, it’s cooking because when I do not cook at all it’s the indicator for me that I have the lowest level of energy and I want to regain it.
1. What is required:
- 1 can of beans
- 2 tomatoes
- a big heap of spinach
- favourite spices the more the better. I used garlic powder, cumin, herbal pepper, chilli powder, the mix of Indian spices I needed to use up)
2. Rinse your beans. Cut tomatoes into cubes. Sauté tomatoes in a big pot. This time I added all spices in one go because I could not care less. I was just satisfied that I made myself cook.
I used up the Indian mixture, I don’t even remember what it was. Probably, coriander, cumin, clove… It can be omitted or replaced with what you have. I added 2 tsp garlic, 2 tsp chilli, 1 tsp cumin, and 2 tsp herbal pepper. Always adjust spices to your taste. If you don’t like fragrant food, don’t use cumin. Add less or omit chilli, if you are not a fan of hot spice food.
3. Cook tomatoes over medium heat with some water for 5-7 minutes. Add beans. Mix well to coat beans with spices. Cook for 15 minutes more.
4. Add spinach and mix well. Cook until spinach wilted.
I served it with rice, tofu, and micro greens. Simple meal is what I needed. I feel I am coming back
Please take care…Life is not meaningless I guarantee
