The time for Easter eggs is here! After Easter lunch, as kids, we would go for the long-awaited egg hunt. Adults would hide tiny chocolate eggs everywhere in the garden, behind old pots and big bushes. All the cousins would run around, looking for eggs and excited to...

Easter is coming along and I thought of creating some delicious two-bite recipes to share with you. These are recipes you can make ahead and freeze well, so you have one less thing to do for Sunday lunch. Both are vegan, free of gluten, refined sugars, and artificial...

How many times you craved something extra crunchy to top your smoothie, porridge, yoghurt… And you’ve run out of granola? This recipe is the perfect allied to make when you’re short in time (and maybe even ingredients)! Just pop some seeds and nuts...

Deliciously warming, this soup hides a simple and effective technique that will make you spend less time in the kitchen. The technique is no big deal, but once you implement it, you’ll see how easily you can leave the kitchen and immerse into other tasks. Plus,...

I absolutely love the crunch of a good granola on top of my smoothie bowls and chia puddings. With that said, for a few years now, I prefer to avoid oat-y granolas. I notice that, personally, I get more bloated and uneasy when I take too much grains and legumes. I...

I love love grapes. Their sweeteness and crunch is addictive to me and I think I love them all the ways. No doubt though, one of my favourite methods is to roast them until perfectly pumped and caramelized. Add them to toast and something salty and… SCORE!...

I’ve been making kale chips for years and every now and again I like to change up the flavours a little bit. This time I added curry powder and YUM they tasted so good! You can add almost literally any flavour. I love the “cheeziness” of nutritional...

One ingredient I connect with warm Autumny days is butter. Smothered on freshly made toast, used to sautée some mushrooms or to finish a dish for added creaminess and richness. YUM! It is something I don’t have as much of these days, so I want to share with you...

So, it’s official – at least in sunny Lisbon – Autumn has finally arrived. Cloudy days, rainy mornings, leaves everywhere, shorter afternoons and that cold crisp breeze are all here to stay. Cold season is not my favourite but, with that said, there...

End of Summer vibes, for me, is all about using up the last tomatoes, ripe to their finest, and cooking them with everything and anything. Just sliced, sprinkled with sea salt and drizzled with olive oil? Perfection. Added to a fresh salad? Delicious. Blended into a...

I’ve always wanted to have the traditional Southern American style Cornbread recipe. Rich and decadent, the original recipe usually asks for ingredients I don’t tipically use in my kitchen, so I decided to develop a healthier version, with whole flours and...

As soon as I got home from my Summer vacations, I started batch cooking for the week: chopped fresh veggies, made a simple hearty soup, breakfast bars, granola, cooked millet, avocado cream… and this Chia Pudding of course! I believe in meal prepping as a...

I love cold soups in the Summer. In our home, as a little girl, we always used all the ripe tomatoes to make either Gazpacho or cold tomato soup, that we garnished with egg crumbs, croutons and chopped herbs. A few years ago, I started to travel and try other recipes...
