I'm Possible Breakdance Camp
Vegan Food for a Dance Camp
In August 2021 I was asked to cook for around 25 Kids for a Hip Hop Dance Camp called I'm Possible. It was a very interesting experience, since kids can be very fuzzy about what they like or don't like eating. Since I was a really difficult kid when it came to food and eating myself, I could relate. I also knew how to get them accustomed to
new tastes as I acquired them under encouraging circumstances. With a passion for cooking and baking, I just had a lot of fun being creative. I also didn't want to risk being too exotic with what I was making.
The Menu's included Spaghetti Bolognese,Red Brassica with orange and olives, Lemon Raw Cake(sweetened with dates), Burgers, Fruit Salads, Berry Cakes(sweetened with dates), Cucumber Salad, Saigon Breaks(Savoy cabbage recipe), Noodle Salad, Chocolate Raw Cake(sweetened with dates), Peanut Sauce with Tofu, Provençale Crème Sauce, Apple Crumble, Tiramisu Cake, Hummus, Jackfruit Curry, Pizza, Raita etc. Just to name a few.
Located in Switzerland, these kids were provided with pyramid shaped dormitories. Each was equipped with Kitchens and Bathrooms. Close to a small stream, they were surrounded by nature. They walked to a gymnasium every day to train in the art of breaking. With positive and uplifting vibes when it came to the music, I think for some of them it wasn't just an experience that builds character, but one where they learn to respect each other. Co-inhabiting a space in dormitories there might have been an evening of chess or a movie night, but their days were packed with wholesome activities.
@kunoichi got me that gig. I tried not mentioning that the food was vegan and I don't think anyone really missed anything. I did reveal it at the end of the week. Nowadays there are so many products that make it much easier to disguise, but I tried to make things like burger patties, bolognese, Thai curries etc. I also tried to stay away from too much of processed food. With a powerful food processor and other tools I took with me, I came equipped.
I hope you enjoy the Video.

Ahahaha I freaking love the idea of our homie doing some ninja vegan food, with a great reveal at the end of the week.
Then @yangyanje throw a smoke bomb and dissappear
Your comments always light me up! Puff ..... i liked how they said they wanted some more meat when they came for a second serving. They liked the meat, they said. You just think to yourself: it's all vegan baby. The other day i was trying to make these pea protein chunks with a red wine sauce. If one knows how to cook and flavor, spice this stuff one just realizes how trivial some cuisine just sticks to traditional stuff. We are definitely in an age of expansion when it comes to food and plant based alternatives. 15 years ago a vegan life was pretty lonely. They even had animal hair in bisquits.
Bro I had a friend in South Africa, her name was Leonie, she made the most fucking amazing curry, all vegan; and you would always think, naaah this is meat, and she was cooking that tofu and seasoned it like a piece of meat, I would eat vegan everyday if Leonie was around!
Man, we live on the farm with 3 kids, I ain't doing no damn tofu for sure, but I freaking love the concept! It takes few things to eat good vegan food.
I know the last one is a sensitive subject for vegans, but it cost a little more to eat well, that's fact! Plus I am 82kg I need some damn proteins!!!
I feel you! For anaerobic stuff, i noticed some great benefits. Specially james lightning Wilks is a great example n MMA lightweight. Have you ever checked him out?
It's true with the money. If i'd go for all the processed stuff it's super expensive.
I usually buy gluten flour or pea protein flour, lupine etc and kneed them, even using natural yeast, try to make my own fonds and then essentially prepare my own vegan meats. Specially when i cook for people accustomed to such protein rich diets.
Myself, i really eat a lot of veggies and love cabbages and mushrooms, lentils and beans and put loads of herbs in my food. I try to add vinegar to remove the bitterness. About a year ago i started acquiring this strange taste and took a direction, avoiding potatoes and aubergines. I do occasionally eat tomatoes but try to avoid them as well due to glycoalkaloids.
You are really right and i think it has truly become a science for me in terms of nutrition and creating combos bioavailable nutrients in general.
My son would love this shit!
Nice camera work! Love the name of this camp anything that provides children with the opportunity to create and express themselves is a winner for me. I can imagine the energy must have been so high at times.
That pizza was looking pretty good and real nice looking menu's too xxxx
Thanks my friend. Agreed. Specially freedom of expression. Life is so wonderful when everyone can feel good as they are. Let go, move. Encouraging people to move, by crawling on the floor and making some silly poses almost persuades anyone to try something crazy and not be bothered what anyone thinks. Trust me, I try that a lot. lol. Being around these kids really brought back some essence. A lot of them are untainted and teach so much. It gives me the feeling like i'm never gonna grow up...Or get conditioned. Dancing is so good for the soul. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Dancing is my medicine, I make sure to go for a proper dance at least once a month, where I can really just go for it. We all need that freedom to just be! xxxx
Beautifull Camp and amazing food my @yangyanje knows how to narrate the whole story. Loved the video keep up the good work.
Thanks for dropping a comment buddy. Nice you stopped by. You should upload your videos to 3speak.tv too. You can link your hive account. As far as I know there is a dance community coming soon. Once 3speak gets the speak network, this could become more significant than apps like tic toc.
