Now that the weather is getting a bit fresher, we tend to eat less fresh Summer salads. This however does not mean that we stop eating healthy food. Being mainly on a vegetarian diet, my fridge is always stocked with various fresh fruit and vegetables. As you may have noticed from previous blog posts, I…

Korean BBQ Lentils
Lentils are a staple ingredient in my pantry. Since I rarely cook meat at home, I very often opt for these versatile legumes. You can very easily substitute ground meat for lentils in various recipes. Some people think that they are bland, however it all depends on how you cook them. I generally prefer to…
Fudgy Chocolate Balls
I have recently posted the recipe for Cranberry Cashew Bites. I made them a couple of times now as they are great to snack on and can satisfy a sweet tooth without having additional sugars. This week I made something similar using different ingredients. I used hazelnuts and almonds as the main ingredients here and…
Baked Falafel
Chickpeas remind me of my childhood. I remember there was an old lady, who used to come by my school at the end of the day, selling fresh chickpeas when they were in season. She would have picked them up from her family’s fields that same morning. She would be standing there, a couple of…

I have been testing out various sweet recipes recently, which obviously meant that we have had to eat all of these experiments!

Red Lentil Curry & Homemade Naan Bread
Indian-inspired curries are a staple of our diet. I make them all year round and I like to vary them according to the fresh local produce. Most of the time, these meals tend to be vegetarian dishes and very often they are also vegan. This is the simplest curry dish I have ever made and…
Mediterranean Style Stuffed Bell Peppers
This recipe here takes me back home, as the flavours remind me of ħobż biż-żejt (translated to bread with oil). In Malta, ħobż biż-żejt is a traditional lunchtime snack. It consists of a traditional Maltese loaf or a ftira (a round flat-ish bread similar to ciabatta) spread with kunserva (a sweet tomato paste), and topped…
Vegetable Sushi Rolls & Nigiri
I know that traditional sushi is not for everyone. But the recipe below is different and you should at least have a look at it before saying No! 🙂 Sushi is often associated with raw fish. However, it is sometimes also served with cooked meat and/or vegetables. In Budapest, a land which is quite far…
