This recipe was born one day when I was in a mood to try something different. I’ve never made a miso soup before and I didn’t know how to make it. A quick search on Google revealed that miso soup is something quite easy to make. I decided to create my own version of miso […]
This is a low-carb meal, perfect for a healthy lunch at work and it’s really quick to make. This simple salad with Quorn roast ‘chicken’ sliced fillets is something I’ve been eating more of lately as I wanted to reduce my carb intake in order to maintain a healthy weight (or even better lose some weight). Since […]
Millet is not something you would normally find in the British supermarket but it’s very common in Slovenia. People in Slovenia eat it in savoury and sweet dishes but I only cooked with millet once before – I made millet tabbouleh which didn’t turn out that great. That’s because I didn’t really know how to cook […]
This recipe for Black bean-hemp protein patties comes from the book Superfood Kitchen which I have previously reviewed here. I was pretty impressed with the book and I am really excited about sharing this recipe with you (courtesy of The GMC Group) so you can see for yourself what kind of delicious food you can expect to […]
In the beginning of December I challenged myself and went on a low-carb diet for a week in an effort to lose some weight before Christmas. Oh boy, what a challenge this was. I had no bread, porridge, muesli, pasta or rice for a week! I introduced beans to my diet, something that I would normally not […]
Have you ever tried making anything out of sauerkraut? If you haven’t, I won’t be surprised, as it’s not what British people typically eat – I’ve never seen it on restaurant menus, mentioned on social media or on food blogs that I follow (apart from Polish ones). But sauerkraut is widely used in Slovenia and you […]
I love mushroom soup but it doesn’t really fill me up and it’s really only a starter for me as it’s quite light (at least the way I make it). In England it’s normally made creamy and buttery but at home I make it simply with onions, garlic, mushrooms and herbs, served with a dollop […]
I make pasta dish maybe once a week or less often and this is always one of those meals I cook when I don’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen and want dinner on a table in half an hour or less. I invented this pasta recipe one week when I had some random […]
Recently I had an asparagus soup in one of the cafés near Manchester and I really liked it so I decided to make it myself at home. I’ve never made an asparagus soup before but I wanted to make it different and not only use an asparagus as a main ingredient. I thought broccoli would […]
One evening I was making some salad and I wasn’t totally sure what I was going to have with it. I just didn’t want to have lentils again. I normally have lentils twice a week and sometimes it just gets boring but it’s not that easy to come up with a quick and healthy meal which […]
