Renata’s Live Cooking Show: Chocolate Coconut Chia Seed Pudding

Leave a Comment

Did you hear the news?

When I first arrived in the US, the very first show I ever watched on TV was the Emeril cooking show on Food Network. It was quickly followed up by 30 Minute Meals with Rachel Ray. I’ve watched shows from Sandra Lee, Sara Moulton, Bobby Flay, Paula Deen and Ree Drummond, to name just a few. Tell me the name of the Food Network show, and I’ve seen it!

I love the Food Network! Some of my favorite chefs of all time are on that network and they are not only sharing their love of food, they are showing you how to cook in a relaxed and inspiring way.

And guess what? I love food! I love to cook! And I want to teach you how to cook in a relaxed and inspiring way too!

So, just in case you haven’t heard, I am hosting my very own LIVE cooking show on my FB group, Get Nourished with Renata! I’ll be cooking live from my kitchen every Wednesday at 1 pm CST. If there’s a recipe that you want me to cook and walk you through, let me know! I wanna cook recipes that you wanna learn!

It’s Almost Valentine’s Day!

What is the best part of Valentine’s Day?! The chocolate, of course!

I’m kidding! Slightly….

But seriously, one of the best things about Valentine’s Day is coming up with lots of fun sweet treats to give the ones we love.

This year, my friend, Kathleen, and I were talking about making chocolate truffles. She brought up an amazing flavor combination that I had to try… orange, rosemary and black pepper.

This is one of the coolest things about knowing a pastry chef like Kathleen – they always come up with awesome flavor combos!

Now, you may be thinking “I don’t know about this whole sweet-and-savory-in-one-bite kinda thing…”

Well, let me tell you ….. this flavor combo is AMAZING!

The orange zest gives a bright citrusy flavor, which contrasts so perfectly with the deep woodsy, earthy tones from the rosemary, with just a hint of spice from the black pepper.

Now pair these flavors with the rich, creamy, unctuousness of a dark chocolate truffle… divine!

This Valentine’s Day treat is a cinch to make too. Just one bowl, 5 ingredients, and you have yourself some homemade gourmet truffles, right in the comfort of your own kitchen.
