Midsommar open faced prawn and salmon sandwiches 🍞

Midsommar open faced prawn and salmon sandwiches 🍞

We still have a couple of days until we celebrate Midsommar. Tomorrow is the Solstice, and I wanted to post a recipe for the occasion. You can make it in 15 minutes, so there’s no excuses for this one 🤗     This sandwiches can’t be simpler. There’s only a few ingredients for each recipe. It takes around 5 minutes each, 8 tops!     I think I liked the prawn toast better than the salmon, but only because of…

Smörgåstårta: Celebrating Midsommar 🌞💐🌾

Smörgåstårta: Celebrating Midsommar 🌞💐🌾

Last week I published this beautiful recipe: Strawberry layer cake.     This week I wanted to bring you a cake recipe, but with savoury flavours.     I’ve always ben a fan of off-colours and off-flavours. You know, like when you’re watching a TV series and they change the colours of something that always has the same colour.     I love that. Remember Super Mario? Yoshi has always been a character that makes me want to play videogames….

April Playlist 🎧 Stay at home season. Coronavirus, Gratitude & Creativity.

It’s April, at last. Time seems to move slower these days, am I right?     I’ve made a playlist for the month, but as most of you are staying home, maybe only one is too short. What do you do while you listen to playlists? Tell me the activity you usually do when you listen to music and I can make a personalized playlist especially for the quarantine.     I usually work on light stuff while I listen,…

Avocado Toast |VEGAN · PLANT-BASED · GLUTEN-FREE · SOY-FREE|

Whenever I’m lazy for breakfast I think…Avocado Toast. The same happens at lunch and…guess what’s for dinner? I usually have a meal plan for the week, but if everything goes wrong…Avocado Toast. I’ve made so many different versions of the so-called Avocado Toast that I just go with the flow. Lately I’ve been doing this recipe, but who knows what tomorrow brings. I’ve started calling them avotoasts. So, from now on, avotoasts it is. The base is always the same…half…

Plant-based vs Vegan

Plant-based vs Vegan

This is going to be a long post. I know that for some of you plant-based means vegan (aka products that don’t harm any animal) But what does vegan mean to you? Apparently every word means something different for everyone these days. It’s OK. I understand the food industry is trying to bring up new terms in order to get more people happy. Vegan has becom e biased for some people and plant-based seems to be a good replacement. Although…

Vegan ideas for Back to School (Plant-Based & Gluten-free)

Since I finished my PhD, I don’t really know how school life works anymore. I was surprised to read that Back To School happens in August for most of you. Also, chatting through Instagram with one of my followfriends she told me she has an exam next week.     I don’t really know how life goes anymore…     What I do know is that we all get hungry, we all want to eat healthier and we all need…

White bean & Seaweed Hummus, perfect for these Summer Nights

White bean & Seaweed Hummus, perfect for these Summer Nights

Have you ever tried hummus? I bet you have. Nowadays, hummus is practically everywhere and I’m so thankful for that. The first time I tried it my aunt made it for me. She’s been a vegetarian forever and I think I’ve already told you she’s a great cook. I remember I fell in love with the recipe and ate almost the whole recipe she made for four people. I also remember my stomach aching after that and saying “I would…

Vegan Chocolate Spread (World Nutella Day)

Vegan Chocolate Spread (World Nutella Day)

I made Vegan chocolate spread to celebrate World Nutella Day. Don’t get me wrong…it doesn’t taste like Nutella, that wasn’t my intention. I wanted to make something inspired by Nutella. Nevertheless, f you change the cashews for hazelnuts, it will remind you to the real thing. I just found it interesting to make a cashew and chocolate spread for the first time. I love the result, and I’ve been eating it all day.   Ingredients (makes a small batch): 65…
