[ me feeling :
every muscle in my body sporty ]
[ me listening to : "Nine Times Blue" ~Nez (Demo) ]
[ lost in : cappucchino ]
Boy, am I sporty!
Met up with Chrissy in Spandau this morning (well, okay it wasn't morning anymore, but I got up at 8 and met her at 10:30) to go to her gym for a probation work-out.
I liked it very much, especially the crosstrainer, stepper and treadmill. But the stuff for muscle-training was also okay. After about 2 hours we had enough and just for fun we played on the terminals what our biological age was.
Surprise Surprise! I am 29.
Then I printed my individual Work-out-plan.
I am really enthusiastic to go there more often. The price is very good, only 16 € per month. Spandau is a bit far away though, but there is another one of those
McFits in Steglitz, but would be better to have a friend to go with.
*harrumph* Greenie...? ;)
And I also started with a new low-carb / low-fat diet. Printed some recipes from the internet, which I tested, but I also want to buy me a book at Hugendubel, which is only 3 €.
Here you can have a look at my lunch from yesterday and today:
1) Hot Banana-Soup
you need:
- 1 Onion
- 1 Chili (if you like it very hot: dice a jalapenio-pepper)
- 2 Tablespoons Oil (canola, olive, linseed...)
- 100 ml orange juice
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- 400 ml boiled water with 2 teaspoons vegetable broth
- 200 ml tomatoe ketchup (better! vegetable or tomatoe juice)
- 3 bananas
- 3 Tablespoons coconut rasps
I also added:
- a little bit ginger powder
- a little bit paprika or chili powder
- curcuma
- some herbs
preparation:
- peel and dice onion. heat oil in a pot, add onion and chili and roast gently
- add orange juice, zest and the broth, then boil up
- add ketchup (alt.: veggie juice) and simmer 5 Minutes covered.
- peel bananas, put 2 of them into the soup and go through it with a blender untill onions and bananas are smoothy.
- roast coconut rasps in a pan without oil. cut the 3rd banana into pieces, roll them in the coconut rasps and roast them in the pan with a little bit oil
- fill soup into bowls, garnish with banana-coconut pieces, if you want you can garnish also with more roasted coconut rasps and/or pepper pieces
Enjoy your meal!
2) Sauerkraut-Fritters
what you need:
- 500 g Sauerkraut
- 1 egg
- 1 onion
- fatless ham
- herbs
- breadcrumbs
preparation:
- squeeze Sauerkraut untill there's no more water in it (the more water, the more it spouts while roasting!)
- mix it with the egg and herbs, diced onion and ham
- form fritters with a little bit breadcrumbs in your hands and roast them in a pan with little canola oil
- goes best with a fresh salad (i.e. iceberg lettuce)
Enjoy your meal!
Tomorrow I'm gonna make:
3) Salat-Roll
you need:
- iceberg lettuce (3 big leaves)
- 3 slices cheese
- 3 slices chicken or turkey breast
- asparagus
put cheese, chicken or turkey breast and asparagus on the lettuce leaf, roll it!
Dressing of tasteless yoghurt, a little bit ketchup, salt, pepper, vinegar and canola oil
