Eating is a basic need, and eating well, healthy and delicious, is one of the priorities of a society that increasingly cares about the quality of life, but has less time to take care of it. The frenetic pace of everyday life, which no one has taught us to cook like our grandmothers, or the impulse to copy sophisticated recipes from TikTok cannot be a reason to eat poorly.
In autumn, ingredients take center stage that give a healthy and tasty touch to our dishes, and that are not at odds with a lifestyle. fit. For example, pumpkin provides extra sweetness and flavor to spoon dishes, but it can also be an ally in the morning snack in oatmeal pancakes for which we only need 170 grams of whole oat flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, half a teaspoon of salt, one of agave syrup, 200 milliliters of milk—or vegetable drink—, 2 eggs, 20 grams of light butter and, of course, 200 grams of pumpkin.
To make them, we only have to mix all the liquid ingredients in the blender glass and beat well before adding the flour, yeast, salt and the spices that we want to add to beat again. The dough will rest for 15 minutes in the refrigerator and then, in a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium-high heat, with a drop of coconut oil or EVOO, pour it in until bubbles start to appear or it starts to turn matte. One turn with the spatula, a couple more minutes and we will have an ideal snack for this time of year.
The most traditional palates are also in luck with the appearance of pumpkin in the shopping basket, and a pumpkin and carrot cream when you get home from work lifts any day, no matter how hard it has been, and it is no more than half an hour of cooking if we use the right tools. We will need 500 grams of pumpkin, 400 of carrot, an onion – or leek -, 2 small potatoes and vegetable or chicken broth, curry, salt, pepper and 2 cheeses.
With the chopped vegetables, and programming a food processor to the indicated program, we sauté everything for the minutes indicated by the manufacturer and then we add the broth until everything is covered and we add the spices and dial the cooking program again. When the vegetables are soft, we remove the liquid to taste and add the two cheeses to give creaminess before grinding at progressive speed. In half an hour, and while we do anything, we have a spoon dish ready to enjoy and with an ideal nutritional balance for a dinner: pumpkin contains tryptophan, which can help you sleep much better, and vegetable fiber that stimulates intestinal transit and balances the functioning of the body.
