Autumn is just around the corner and, just like with apples, pumpkin and persimmon, banana recipes always make me nostalgic and thinking about those comforting notes and flavours. That’s why I wanted to share this super easy banana bread muffin with you. A...

I guess heat wave asks for iced lattes, ice-cream-like smoothies, fresh crisp salads and, of course, cold soups. Probably due to being neighbours with Spain, and being it a very typical dish in Alentejo, I’ve always felt Gazpacho is a bit Portuguese as well. ...

It’s always hard to come back to post something after such a long silence… As I’m writing I feel that weirdness of someone who doesn’t recognize their voice. How did I use to write? What did my readers enjoy reading? Well, one thing is for...

Summer asks for fresh, easy, simple salads. Right? At the moment, I’m obcessed with this combo. The sweetness from the apricots balances the whole dish, while the mustard dressing adds that much needed savoury punch. Introducing seasonal fruit is a great way to...

It is very easy to get bored about food and eat the same thing over and over again right? Even when you try to get some inspiration, everything seems so complex and difficult that you end up… Eating the same! I get you, and with that in mind, I’m sharing...

For me, this is the perfect Summer sauce! I confess I use it as a dip too, and as a topping for any veggies I’m cooking that day, and for beach sandwiches, and by the spoon too, it’s that good! The classic version is made with mayonnaise, but I prefer this...

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!...
