We’re still buzzing with excitement over our recent adventure in Portugal! We had the honor to be invited to cater for a medicine retreat that was held at Monte Velho, a most wonderful hidden treasure in Portugal’s Sao Vicente natural reserve. Pachamama totally recommends this place for completely relaxing revitalizing holidays, and as a serene venue for retreats and workshops…
We were asked to prepare 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches and 2 soups for about 25 people. Because this retreat was aimed at healing and purifying, we chose our ingredients extra-carefully. For breakfast we served soaked seeds and nuts, muesli, home made bread, a selection of home made jams, free range eggs, Greek yogurt, olive oil, tomatoes and lots and lots of fruit. The lunches were a range of various salads and dips, with lots of different flavors and textures ~ a feast for the senses. The soups that we served at night were heartwarming and filling, but easy on the system.
The place was remarkable, the people were lovely, we made new friends and had nothing but fun! BIG thank you’s to Gyata, Ash, Vera and Henrique…
