Chocolate and strawberries overnight oats

June 3, 2016 By travellingoven 2 Comments

Chocolate and strawberries overnight oats sounds good, right? 😉

Like I told you in my last post that my things still haven’t arrived from customs, meaning the new place is still very much empty with no kitchen tools and equipment so cooking is let’s say quite challenging. So basically I kind of just eat breakfast food a lot. Because if you can’t cook and you don’t want to start eating sandwiches and unhealthy stuff, than this kind of food is the best solution! And you get to eat chocolate more often than not and that’s always a good thing, right? 🙂

UPDATED WITH NEW PHOTOS IN 2020:

Now don’t get me wrong, I do have one pan and one pot so I do cook something occasionally and I discovered that appetizers-kind-of-food are also a great way to eat something nutritious without too much cooking so I actually have a great savoury recipe for you for next week. Anyway, it’s been an interesting experience realizing how little materialistic things you actually need and how the job can be done also with a bit (or lot!) of improvising.

What makes a home…

Having said that, I will be VERY happy when the things finally arrive (last update is: early next week!) and mostly because I need them to make the new apartment cozy and comfortable and feeling like a new home, even if a temporary one. I already mentioned that but it’s so true, you start to feel more at home when you put those little personal things, cozy blankets and cushions, when you lit candles and put your framed family photos, when you pile your books on the shelfs and can reach anytime for that cookbook to look for an inspiration, when you can take your baking pan and bake muffins or a banana bread for that afternoon tea…

Basically,  those things and moments are so important and many take them for granted because they are always there but believe me, because of my constant moving and this crazy life of mine, I appreciate them with all my heart…

About this delicious and healthy breakfast…

Finally, let’s talk a bit about these Chocolate and strawberries overnight oats! This is such an easy way to make a delicious and healthy breakfast and not to lose anytime in the morning to make it. I hear many complain how they don’t have time in the mornings to make healthy breakfast and they just grab a sandwich or some pastry but in reality, there are so many ways how you CAN have that yummy breakfast that is so important and good for you and your body. I already have quite a few great ones on my blog (see under recipes/breakfast) and here is another one.

This recipe is great because you basically make it the night before and enjoy it in the morning, all you have to do is melt some dark chocolate and drizzle it all over and that takes literally couple of minutes and I recommend you do it because some extra chocolate makes everything better, yum! 🙂

So there are no more excuses, get some strawberries and make this for you breakfast, I’m sure you’ll love it as much as I do, it’s creamy, fresh, mildly sweet, chocolaty, topped with strawberries and melted dark chocolate, what’s not to like! 😀

Hi! I’m Lili and I’m so happy

It’s incredibly hot day in Dubrovnik, 36 C at th It’s incredibly hot day in Dubrovnik, 36 C at the moment and that’s quite unusually hot even in August. So I just want to eat light food (fresh figs! cold watermelon! juicy tomatoes!), drink lots of water and hide from the heat imagining all my favourite things I will enjoy this autumn. Tomorrow we should be back to ‘normal’ summer weather… Stay tuned! 😅

I love photographing doors. Also, imagining who li I love photographing doors. Also, imagining who lives behind those doors and what are their stories.. In life, love and between. It has to do less with curiosity and more with entering the world of imagination. Possibly escaping the realities of life too. Anyway, to keep it more light and simple on this summer afternoon, here’s a photo of pretty doors! 😄

These days I don’t have much appetite. It’s mo These days I don’t have much appetite. It’s mostly the heat that doesn’t agree with my body, me and summer heat are certainly not on good terms. Also, there’s a lot on my mind. And heart. 
I would love to feel the lightness of summer, you know the one where you feel that the summer breeze coming from the sea in the evenings melts all your life challenges and blues away and you feel ligtness in your heart and body. A sparkle. Excitement. Flow. But sometimes that doesn’t come easy. So I need to make an effort and try a bit harder. And that’s ok. Some summers are lighter than others just as some winters are darker. All that is our beautiful life…❤️

In both food and nature photography I’m drawn to In both food and nature photography I’m drawn to simple scenes, even minimalistic, capturing beauty of something ‘ordinary’ that could easily be overlooked… 
I admire work of many photographers who create beauty with busy, more complex scenes but when I decided to follow my heart and what feels right to me, that’s when I started enjoying photography the most. ❤️

My editing style has changed a lot in the last few My editing style has changed a lot in the last few years so sometimes I like to re-edit older photos and compare with the original edit. Most of the times I’m like ‘what was I thinking?!’…😅 But I actually like to see the difference and I’m enjoying the process of changing, evolving, seeing things differently.. So here’s a new edit of this lovely scene and cake made by @evakosmasflores, hope you like it. It makes me feel like late summer afternoon…🧡

When you have your own business there are times wh When you have your own business there are times when you don’t have weekends, you don’t have days off, no holidays, when you need to keep going even if you’re going through something difficult and just want to stay in bed… And it’s not always easy. There are also times, specially in the first years, when you don’t know if you are going to make it, if you will earn enough to support yourself, if you will be ‘good enough’… But I wouldn’t change all that for anything because doing what you love is incredibly rewarding and I love photography with all my heart and soul. 
It saved me more than once. It keeps saving me, helps me express myself and what I feel, it gave me back my confidence and a purpose when I nearly lost it. It was the best decision of my life (well, the one of getting a divorce and get out of a really bad marriage is there somewhere too 😅) to take that new path in my late 30s and start all over again… It’s never too late. ❤️
