Au Gratin Potatoes n Beets and Chia Pudding

Au gratin potato and beets with sunflower beet cheese
5 Thinly sliced white potatoes
5 thinly sliced small beets
mix with sunflower cheese recipe from yesterday add juice of 1 more lime and 2 pinches of salt

I just put the potatoes and the beets into a food processor with the slicing attachment, it makes it super easy. I then put the sliced vegetables into a pan, and smothered it with the sunflower cheese recipe -- what was leftover over from the other day after having falafels. A full recipe could also work too, and you could slice up more potatoes so it's not too wet.

Something about me, I'm terrible at having a fixed plan in terms of having things in the oven. I would recommend something like 200 C for 1 hour, perhaps, but do check it midway to see if they are done, Also covering the potatoes may help, I didn't have a cover when I made this, so they were slightly crunchy, but it didn't seem to matter because everyone ate them up regardless, including myself. 

Chia Chocolate Pudding:
2 tbsp of sugar
4 tbsp of chia seeds
2 tbsp of soy milk powder
1-2 tbsp of oats
enough water to cover all ingredients


Let sit for 5 minutes, mix and enjoy.
For the most part, I try to avoid sugar, but at times.. it's almost impossible, so well just enjoy in those moments :) 

Apart from eating this today, I was bad, I had popcorn and acai for dinner. 

and a mango for a snack in the afternoon. 

Acai is a super popular food here in brazil and it's basically like a sorbet but made with acai.. so i like to consider it like a meal ;P because it's super rich in omega 3's and loads of other vitamins. It's hard to know how much is retained of that when processed and sugar added.. but it's amazing. Make sure to try it if you ever come to Brazil :)
