“Advice? I don’t have advice. Stop aspiring and start writing. If you’re writing, you’re a writer. Write like you’re a goddamn death row inmate and the governor is out of the country and there’s no chance for a pardon. Write like you’re clinging to the edge of a cliff, white knuckles, on your last breath, and you’ve got just one last thing to say, like you’re a bird flying over us and you can see everything, and please, for God’s sake, tell us something that will save us from ourselves. Take a deep breath and tell us your deepest, darkest secret, so we can wipe our brow and know that we’re not alone. Write like you have a message from the king. Or don’t. Who knows, maybe you’re one of the lucky ones who doesn’t have to.”

all i ever see is a blank canvas, 

pale skin too stretched on its frame

ready and waiting.

when you looked, you saw art made from bones

ribs, hands and feet, little veins in between,

sticky and dripping, carefully drawn.

Black-Bean Brownies 

We all love brownies, right? and sometimes even I have the gooey, chocolatey goodness. Here’s the healthy option!- Back bean brownies, made with black turtle beans instead of flour the recipe is also gluten free and low-cal, not to mention absolutely delicious. I added a scoop of my new pea protein isolate so there like super brownies! Perfect for a pre or post gym snack :) 

Ingredients: 
2 cups black beans 
1/3 cup apple sauce
2-3 Tbsp oil (I used macadamia oil- LOVE the flavour)
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup cacao powder
1/4 cup raw sugar
1-2 tsp honey (For a bit of extra sweetness, I needed it. But it is optional)
A scoop or so of your favourite protein powder (optional)
Walnuts and sultanas to top (optional)

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a small cake pan. 
2. Drain beans and puree in a blender UNTIL SMOOTH- make sure they’re completely blended, you dont want any bits of beans in your brownies (if you need extra liquid add the apple sauce/ oil early) 
3. Add apple sauce, oil, eggs, vanilla. 
4. Pour mixture into a bowl and sift in cacao powder, sugar and protein if using. 
5. Pour into cake tin and top with chopped walnuts/ sultanas if using. 
6. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until knife comes out clean.

 ENJOY :)
