Slurpy Soup - Dinner Ideas

Since I have become a fitness enthusiast of recent, I have been searching for food and recipes that can help with weight loss. First I found the goodness of chickpeas and now cabbage. 

Cabbage have been used in many weight loss programs and detox. I on the other hand don't want something so drastic, I want this to be a journey, being able to cook and serve healthy food for my family and myself of course is my main aim.

I am rather fascinated how will power and our human mind can change a person. It is no denial that if you put your heart and soul into it you can do it. I am finding different cooking method and food types to spice up things thru out this journey.

This week, Week 3...I am going to replace dinner with soup as oppose to the mundane bread and spaghetti. The star of my soup recipes will of course be Cabbage and I will be making my own combination of vege and meat to go with it.

Last night I made this delicious Cabbage Soup with Fish balls and Vege. Topped it with fried onions to add some flavor. I did not make chicken broth, I just used the instant Knor's Chicken Cubes for flavoring and added a teaspoon of spice mix...it is specially for soup. Notice the colour of the soup is not clear, that is because of the spice mix.


I also added some leftover chickpeas for protein instead of eggs, 1 potato for a little bulk and some combinations of vegetables like bitter gourd, carrots  and bottle gourd, onions and garlic was sauteed with the vegetables add some flavor.

Nesting

 Dear Readers and Friends, Is time to dust the pages of this blog again. Much needed activity now that things are so much in order in my personal life. Well I have found home in places, I once thought will never be possible again. On top of everything, I have found home in me. Cliché much, well I don't think so....haha. When you take the right amount of rebirths..many many....then you will rediscover you over and over again. Fear has subsided, wholeness has started to take form. I may have started this blog 10 years ago. A younger self who had dreams as wide as the ocean....she never equipped herself to fight the rough tides. She got hit one too many times. Ended up in an island of hope, not knowing that both land waters houses challenges. Determined, she did make the island her fort, her safe space, her sweet spot... Forgetting the ocean for dreams, never thinking of going back to the waters to continue her quest. Her blessed heart, brought her wise words from her fairy-god-mother

Physical Disability is No Disability of the Mind & Will

Real People, Real Stories; Featuring Khairul  Nizam  the founder of Jamumall Sdn. Bhd. I am delighted, honored and also inspired to write about a soul that doesn't know the meaning of the word "GIVING UP" .  We tend to complain mostly about the things or environment that we are not blessed with. We tend to sideline everything good our creator, parents and many of life's teachings that we are generously given. Often, we overuse our power to procrastinate but never really fully utilize the ability to  express our gratitude for the blessings we have and received in life. I personally do procrastinate, complain and constantly debate that life is not treating me kind. I never actually realized, that I am exactly where I am today of my own doings.  If the doings are of any good, I would be able to live my life to the fullest and struggle would me nothing but a stepping stone to greater success to me. Here is an inspiring story of Mr. Khairul Nizam the fou

What is Healing? - Self Acceptance

Happy Day Wishes, Incase you decided to stop by and take glance at my blog....I thank you and welcome you to my post that was crafted during my lunch break. I have been doing a lot of research on healing and living behind past traumas and trying understand how life is going to be after you heal ( that too if you do! ). I have tried multiple ways and carried out several exercises to change my thinking, mindset, speech and how i treat people and situations that I am caught it. One minute I was a saint, the exact next minute I was Hulk - SMASH was the only word running and ruling my mind. All I could do after that is, hurl to my bed, hug my pillow over my face and scream and cry all at the same time. Have you done that ? Well, my mind as become a spacious playground and my thoughts creates chains of thoughts....No not overthinking, healthy thinking! I don't visit problems and device multiple solutions, I take a deep dive into why and how it started in the first place. That made me rea
