I don’t remember when was the first time I heard about Cinco de Mayo. But as soon as I did, I made it a tradition at home. I’m pretty sure it’s been more than a decade, and every year I make at least one Mexican dish to celebrate the country. 聽 聽 As I do with everything I celebrate, it loses a bot of the meaning in my case, but I guess there’s no harm in celebrating each and every…
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…
I love this dessert. The good thing about it is that it is so energetic and so healthy that it makes a perfect breakfast, afternoon snack, dessert after lunch…you name it! The base is simple: bananas, peanut butter and cacao nibs. That’s it…the rest is up to your imagination. A couple of weeks ago, Luc铆a (a friend) and I decided that the best way to keep in touch was to meet for breakfast on Sundays. And I must say, we…
Ain’t it funny how life works? Usually I plan my blog posts. I think about a recipe and then I get ready to take the photos and make more than one crappy iphone pic in order to edit them afterwards and create a nice blog post for you guys and gals to read. Well, life is teaching us lessons all the time, I’m learning about forgetting about anticipation. People don’t mind how much time you spent doing something, they like…
Although it’s raining here today, I can hear the birds singing through my back door. Maybe it has something to do with me prepping the soil for the veggie garden (robins love hanging around me in order to catch some good worm breakfast), but it’s obvious Spring has settled in. May it’s a great month for new beginnings, specially now that the New Moon is coming. But what’s better for May when the Sun is shining and you crave fresh…
Yes, it’s Halloween today. I know you didn’t have the time to plan anything in advance. I also know you probably have a lot of pumpkin leftovers from all the decorative pumpkins you carved this year. Oh! Wait…this isn’t you? Well, this recipe is good for both cases wheter if you are a party planner or a simple food lover, this vegan Mac & Cheese recipe is just perfect. A while ago I made my first What I Eat…
No words to describe this recipe. I mean, look at it. It’s not my fault though…beetroots are amazingly beautiful. I’ve always liked them, but as a kid I must say I only ate them boiled. I love boiled beetroots, but they are so versatile that it feels unfair not to do them in different ways. Roasted would have been the obvious choice for me a couple of years ago, now I’m in love with the raw veggie. When you get…
It’s incredible the many things you can do with tomatoes. They are in season now and it’s one of my favourite聽seasons of all. Actually, I think they should add it to the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Tomato, Fall and Winter. Sounds good. I bring you a recipe that has already become a staple in my kitchen. Any tomato works in this recipe, but I like to mix them in order to get as many shapes as possible. If you are…
