Easy Strawberry Jam (No Pectin & Small Batch)

2nd July 2020 by letseatsmart Leave a Comment

Guess who went strawberry picking?!

The weather has been so glorious this past week and when Jamie from Mama Bear of One posted pictures from her recent trip to a Pick Your Own farm, I was completely sold. 

I’ve never been strawberry picking before and frankly, I didn’t know what it would be like but the place we went honestly surpassed anything I was expecting. Although the weather got a little gloomy as soon as we got there, the day was perfect. I loved casually strolling along with our little baskets, spotting and picking the biggest and juiciest strawberries, chit-chatting away. 

Now, I know you can get strawberries all year long but there is nothing like freshly picked berries! And these strawberries were honestly the nicest strawberries I’ve ever had, so sweet and so full of flavour!

Between the two of us, we picked almost 2 kilos of delicious strawberries and as I love strawberry jam on literally EVERYTHING, I couldn’t help myself but make a jar.

AD | This “Raffaello” inspired almond coconut AD | This “Raffaello” inspired almond coconut smoothie bowl is an absolute must! It’s vegan, gluten-free and oh so delicious! 🥥  What I love most about this recipe is how easy it is to make. As a new mum I find it hard to find the time to make nutritious meals so the idea of chucking everything into a blender to make a delicious meal is really appealing.  Thanks to the frozen bananas this smoothie bowl is basically a bowl of soft scoop ice cream. It’s a balanced recipe that’s perfect for breakfast or dessert. The new Protein Drink Mix - Vegan from @herbalifeuk not only adds to the flavour but it’s also high in protein, contains 22 vitamins and minerals AND it’s gluten-free and sugar-free!
For the smoothie:
• 1.5 servings (42g) Herbalife Nutrition Protein Drink Mix - Vegan (Vanilla flavour)
• 1 frozen green banana (using ripe bananas will alter the flavour)
• 50ml coconut drink + 100ml water (adding more if you need)
• 1.5 tbsp desiccated coconut
Toppings:
• 8 whole almonds
• 1 tbsp flaked almonds
• 1 tbsp desiccated coconut
• 1⁄2 tbsp almond butter
• vegan white chocolate chunks
Method:
Place all of the smoothie ingredients into a blender and pulse until smooth, for around 30-60
seconds.
Transfer into a bowl and decorate with whole and flaked almonds, desiccated coconut and white choc chunks before drizzling with the almond butter.  #smoothiebowl #coconut #raffaello #smoothie #protein #proteinsmoothie #proteinshake #vegan #veganuk #veganfood #veganrecipes #vegandietmealplan #veganbreakfast #vegansnacks #foodphotography #foodstylist #foodstagram #veganprotein #veganuary #veganlife #friendsnotfood
