Beef Stroganoff pappardelle

Something fancy, but ready in no time! A lovely lunch recipe which you can prepare in the weekend and enjoy over the days of the week if you are a meal-prepper like I am 😀

Spring spinach breakfast

I just noticed that as soon as the first springtime signs show up, my mood and my appetite change dramatically. I become more cheerful and I crave for green vegetables – turning into a rabbit maybe 🙂 So spinach is something I come back to as a comfort food and […]

Veggie curry

Smoked mackerel layered salad

I ate a similar combination at my in-laws’ quite some time ago and I was immediately in love with this salad. Now, that particular recipe was prepared using a lot of mayonnaise which I try to avoid nowadays. So I thought I should give it a try and have my […]
