What I eat in a day and in a week

it always varies but I've been noticing lately that there's a few recurrences in our meal choices so in today's video

I was hoping to share with you five different meal ideas that we commonly enjoy each week.

Two of them are breakfasts, there's one lunch and there's two dinner recipes.

The breakdown to all of the recipes as usual can be found on the blog I'll leave those links for you in the description

and I also wanted to take a brief moment to thank Wix for sponsoring today's video.

Wix is the amazing platform that we used to create the Pickup Limes website.

I'm going to speak more about them at the end, but for now let's dive in.

In these colder fall and winter months, Robin and I go for the good old comforting and wholesome oatmeal.

I know I've shared something like this before, so I'll keep it brief.

It's just this is genuinely what we enjoy most days of the week.

Now I used to be someone who didn't really like oatmeal to be honest until my cousin shared some tips with me that made all the difference.

For example, I now cook it in plant milk instead of just water.

It makes it more creamy and flavorful.

I also like to add some flax seeds.

It helps it to stick together a bit more nicely and also offers some beneficial omega-3 fats.

And the best part I think is cutting up a banana in it while it's cooking because the banana starts to kind of caramelize and dissolve making the oatmeal naturally sweet and creamy.

The other thing that makes this oatmeal amazing is the stewed frozen berries

that we add to the top along with some kind of nut butter like hazelnut or almond or peanut butter and we always like to sprinkle on top some pumpkin seeds and chia seeds too.

So like I said, this is literally our breakfast most days of the week and we also like to enjoy it with a cup of tea.

As for the weekend, I mean what's a weekend without some pancakes, right?

And this is a super wholesome recipe that we eat either on Saturday or Sunday morning, sometimes both.

I like to use buckwheat flour because it's made from a seed, which also means it's a more nutrient-dense alternative to white flour.

So how you make it is pretty simple.

I first mash two very ripe bananas until it's as mashed as I can make it.

And then I add about a tablespoon of ground flax seeds and three quarters of a cup of plant-based milk.

Then I mix it all together before adding a cup of buckwheat flour, a teaspoon of ground cinnamon, a quarter teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, a teaspoon of baking powder, and a teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.

I then mix it all together until I get this pancake batter consistency.

and to a non-stick pan on medium heat, I add some coconut oil and then spoon on top some of the batter, using the back of my spoon to shape them into little discs.

When the bottom is golden I give it a flip and that's pretty much it.

For the sake of this video I did the classic good old stacking the pancakes on top of each other but in reality we just lay them flat,

we top them with some peanut butter or some homemade vegan Nutella, I'll leave that recipe for you below as well, and we top it with some berries.

More often we actually go for stewed berries again, it's just easier to find in these colder months.

And if you didn't drizzle on any syrup, did you even make pancakes?

But in all honesty, this was just for fun.

We usually don't add any to our pancakes.

I find it sweet enough, especially with those berries.

But Robin likes to top his with some hoggelslach, which is a very Dutch thing.

It's these chocolate sprinkles that some Dutch people like to have on toast for breakfast.

Lunch is usually either leftover dinner or these sandwiches so while I make oatmeal in the morning Robin is whipping these together for us for our lunch.

It's pretty straightforward and insanely delicious.

It's some whole grain bread that's been toasted and then we spread on top of it some hummus either store-bought or homemade and then dice up a ripe avocado that we put on top of that.

We also cut cherry tomatoes in half, dice up some cucumbers and also add on some pickled jalapenos that came from a jar and if we have it it on hand we'll also add some chives or green onions.

Then we load it up on the arugula a lot and on the other slice of bread we either add some chili sauce or the store-bought vegan honey mustard and that's it.

I've had this for lunch at least a few times each week for the last two years and I have yet to get sick of it.

It's seriously the best.

Some nights I make dinner and some nights Robin does so I'll start with sharing my default which is always some kind of curry.

I find them incredibly comforting whether it's Thai or Afghan or Indian inspired curries.

So this one is a creamy cauliflower and lentil curry.

To start it up, I baked some cauliflower, which you can always do on a meal prep night too if you want to speed things up.

So just break it up into little bite-sized pieces, drizzle on a bit of oil and give it a toss before adding a teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder, half a teaspoon of paprika powder and a small sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Then toss it again and bake it in the oven at 210 Celsius or 400 Fahrenheit for about 40 minutes or until it's a bit crispy and golden.

For the curry itself, you're gonna need one yellow onion, diced, and three cloves of garlic, crushed.

To a pot on medium heat we're gonna add a bit of oil and the onion, sauteing until the onions are lightly golden.

Then we're gonna add the crushed garlic and a whole lot of spices, a tablespoon of curry powder, half a tablespoon each of garam masala and turmeric, and a teaspoon each of ground cumin, ground coriander, cinnamon and salt.

Then stir it until it's fragrant so about one minute and all of these spices are optional so just use whatever you have on hand.

We'll then add a can of diced tomatoes and give it a stir and let this cook for about five minutes.

If I have it on hand I also like to add a couple handfuls of cherry tomatoes.

It gives such a little burst of flavor when you bite into it.

We'll also add a can of coconut milk and the roasted cauliflower.

Stir it up before you add in some cooked lentils and finally we'll add a big handful of spinach.

Give it a stir and let it all heat through and serve it warm with some naan or in this case some brown rice.

It's so incredibly hearty and filling, warm and comforting.

Of course the link to this one is going to be in the description box below but I'm also going to leave the links for some of our other curry recipes in case you're interested.

Now on to the dinner that Robin loves to make.

Robin is part Dutch, part Portuguese and part Indonesian and when it comes to food the Indonesian side of him always wins.

He loves anything with rice, noodles and some form of stir-fry.

So this recipe is his specialty and my absolute favorite.

For this you're gonna need two red onions, diced and four cloves of garlic, thinly sliced.

We're gonna add it to a pan on medium-high heat with some oil and let it cook for about five minutes.

Ravan is also a fan of the mock meats, so for this he uses a plant-based soy product that resembles chicken.

we just break it apart into smaller pieces and then add it to the onion and garlic mixture, letting it cook also for five minutes.

Meanwhile, we're going to wash and then cut the ends off of about four big handfuls of green beans, and then we're going to cut those in half.

It's seriously a lot of green beans, so this is wonderfully nutritious.

When everything in the pan is nice and golden, we're going to transfer it to a bowl, set it aside, and in the same pan, we're going to add those green beans and also a cup of water.

Place the lid on it and let it steam for about five minutes.

Meanwhile, we're going to dice up two medium red bell peppers and add this to the pan as well, again letting it sit for another five minutes.

Then we're going to make the peanut sauce.

For this, you're going to need half a cup of pure peanut butter, a clove of garlic, a teaspoon of raw sugar, a tablespoon of soy sauce, and the juice from half a lime.

Then blend it up in the food processor until it's creamy and smooth.

And when the veggies are cooked to your liking, drain off any excess water, leaving about a tablespoon or two of liquid in the pan.

To the pan we're then going to add back in the onion mixture and about a quarter cup of diced sun-dried tomatoes that were in oil.

And I know this sounds like a really strange addition to a stir-fry.

I thought so too when I first saw Robin doing it, but trust me, it's amazing.

So add that to the pan.

We're also gonna add two teaspoons of sambal hot sauce and a third a cup of sodium reduced soy sauce.

Mix it all together until it's heated through and serve it on a bed of rice or noodles.

Top it with the peanut mixture and that's it.

Robin's version of an Indonesian gato gato so intensely full of flavors.

I can't wait for you guys to try this one.

So now you've gotten a bit of a glimpse into some of the meals that we enjoy each week, but because we're always also making new recipes for the blog, everything else that we eat really varies.

But if you're ever looking for more inspiration and meal ideas, I welcome you to check out the Pickup Limes website.

And speaking of which, I again wanted to thank Wix for partnering with us on today's video.

Wix is the platform that we actually use to create the Pickup Limes website, and I chose to use them from the very beginning because I have no experience in web development or coding, but with Wix, you don't need any of that.

You can create an incredibly professional looking website all on your own and you have total creative freedom So they provide these templates that you can plop your pictures and your videos into but you can also customize them However,

you'd like and if I can be honest another reason I tried Wix is because it's completely free to try and that's something I really appreciated it as somebody that

was new to blogging and I just didn't know what I could commit to just yet So if you've ever been interested in creating your own website that looks professional, but you don't know where to begin I definitely recommend Wix.

Again, it's completely free to try.

So I'm gonna leave that link for you in the description box below.

FOR YOU

為什麼要通過這段影片練習口語？

通過觀看這一影片，學習者可以獲得實用且有趣的飲食英語表達。這段影片展示了作者一週所吃的飲食，提供了豐富的場景，可以靈活運用英語表達。具體來說，影片中的多樣化食譜、烹飪步驟以及營養資訊，都為學習者提供了日常對話的真實語境，特別適合進行英語影子跟讀練習。通過模仿發音和語調，學習者能增強口語能力，提升交流自信心。

語法與表達在語境中的應用

在影片中，作者使用了一些關鍵的語法結構和表達方式，幫助學習者理解日常英語交流的自然流暢性：

現在進行時：如“I'm going to speak more about them at the end”，展示了說話者的計劃和意圖。
被動語態：如“it's a nutrient-dense alternative”，突出食物的特性和營養價值，適合描述事物的狀態。
條件句：例如“if you didn't drizzle on any syrup”，用於討論假設情況，增強了表達的靈活性。
命令句：如“add some flax seeds”，提供了明確的指示，適用於食譜和烹飪指導。

這些語法結構的運用，幫助學習者在英語口語練習中理解和活用這些表達。

常見發音陷阱

在影片中，某些單詞和短語的發音可能會給學習者帶來一定的挑戰。以下是幾個需要特別注意的發音要點：

Oatmeal（燕麥粥）：這個詞的音節較為複雜，注意中間的“meal”部分，不要發成“mil”。
Avocado（鱷梨）：這個詞母音較多，關鍵在於發出清晰的“o”和“a”音。
Hummus（鶴望蘭醬）：發音中的“h”和“m”的連線，容易產生混淆，需仔細練習。

通過這些詞彙的反覆練習，學習者可以在shadow speech的過程中逐漸克服這些發音困難，提升口語流利度。

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：

結構	影片中的用法
“used to” used to + 動詞 — 過去的習慣或狀態，現在已不再如此	used to create · used to be
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事	I've shared · that's been toasted · I've had
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的	can be found · been toasted · are cooked
定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物	someone who didn · hoggelslach, which is · default which is

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
