Fresh jackfruit is one of those seasonal treasure we eat all the time whenever available !! If your healthy grocery store has it, it's impossible to miss this huge, funny looking fruit in the fresh produce section.. When it's ripe, jackfruit is sweeter and tastes like a combo of mango, banana and pineapple -perfect for breakfasts, desserts and smoothies.. But we're going to use unripe fruit - cans of young green jackfruit, because has a blander taste, making it great for savory dishes, and is known for taking on the texture of pulled pork when cooked; you can stew it until tender, then broil or pan-fry it so it gets scrumptious crispy bits- for this addictively delicious wraps.. It's important when buying canned jackfruit, be sure to choose varieties packed in water or its own juices—not brine or sweetened syrup.. Also you need to know, jackfruit's hearty texture makes it a good meat substitute, but it doesn't provide the same protein boost as other plant-based sources, so it's important to combine /enrich jackfruit with nutritionally adequate proteins like hummus,

I have just one word for you !! Unbelievable !! This amazing cake is a different approach of the mille crepe cake that consists of many layers of crepes with cream filling in between along with fruits, cookies or other sweets.. First you need to make paper thin chocolate crepes - although the crepe cake is simple to make, it is a bit difficult to make it look tidy, so I have a few tips here for crepes: rest + chill the batter for 30 minutes to develop more flavor and texture, once the batter is poured into the pan, act quickly to spread the batter around the bottom of the pan in one quick motion, do not overcook the crepes - we want a pliable crepe rather than a crispy one-, and last thing, make sure crepes are cooled before
