This healthy vegetarian recipe is from a book by Lisa Roukin, My Relationship with Food, and it makes a lovely nutritious lunch which you can prepare in advance. It’s also great for dinner, especially on warmer days as it’s a meal you leave it to cool down to create a delicious salad. Lisa Roukin is […]
This recipe comes from the book called SugarDetoxMe (check the review at the end) and it’s one of those healthy dinners which are easy and quick to make. I love having fish once or twice a week but I always tend to make it in the same way (check this baked salmon dinner recipe) so it’s […]
This vegetarian soup was born one day when I had half a bag of spinach to use. I normally use spinach for chickpea and spinach soup or for lentil and carrot soup with spinach, however, this time I wanted to try something different. I looked around my cupboards and found some sweet potato and also a carton […]
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 recipe, 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 the Polish ones). But sauerkraut is widely used in Slovenia and […]
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 […]
