    Chicken with Zucchini, Peas and Potatoes

    Said it before, I’ll say it again. Eaing “healthy” does not have to be boring. Spices can really take a dish from a 0/10 to a 20/10 in a heartbeat ✌. You can replace the chicken here with extra firm tofu (recommend) or vegan chicken. You can eat this with tortillas or roti if you wish!

    Seafood Couscous

    Couscous is traditionally eaten every Friday in Morocco. So, I could not let the day pass without getting my fix ! But this time, I tried a seafood version which is so delicious and easy to make. If you don’t have or don’t like couscous, you can substitute it for quinoa, rice, or barley for instance. Be creative !

    Peanut Butter Banana Bread

    Another day, another banana bread! This time, a peanut butter banana bread. It has an amazing nutty flavor to it and the texture is quite moist as I love it! I love to play around with banana bread – I had two very (very) ripped bananas sitting in my fridge for aaages until they became all black. So I knew it was a “now or never” kinda thing. This time, I added some peanut butter. And the result is dope. I think the peanut butter + coconut oil mix just gives this cake a super soft and moist texture I adore. Hope you try and like it too 🙂 […

    Pistacchio Cupcakes

    I have been having this recipe in mind for a while. A pistacchio cake with a beautiful light purple icing and some pistacchios to top. I finally settled on making cupcakes – I love making cupcakes. Aren’t they juuust the cutest, most precious thing ever ?!! I have been really happy with how these pistacchio cupcakes turned up – full of flavor and moist. My secret ? Substitute, in your recipes, half the butter for oil. That helps make the soft cake texture we all love! These pistacchio cupcakes with a light purple buttercream icing are rich in flavor with a moist texture. Perfect for any special occasion!

    Poffertjes (Dutch Mini-Pancakes)

    Anyone knows what “poffertjes” are? These traditional dutch mini-pancakes are usually eaten with icing sugar and syrup, especially during holidays such as Christmas. You can also add berries and whipped cream on top! Ideally you would use a poffertjes pan, however I just baked mine on a pan and they still ended up spongy and light. The secret is to just put a tiny bit of batter at a time, to keep the poffertjes small, as they will rise and expand a bit. It’s a nice recipe that will be a good adding to a week-end brunch table. Try it and let me know what you think! You'll quickly fall…

    Berries Nice Cream

    We have been experiencing heat waves this summer here in Montreal, and when it happens I tend to crave only cold things! Just like protein packed nice cream. The deal ? I blend a frozen banana with whatever other fruits I have but to make it more filling I add a scoop of protein powder and a dasg of milk. So good! This healthy nice cream with berries recipe is high in protein, making it super filling and delicious!

    Moist Chocolate Muffins

    Guys. I often bake and find myself having to make a recipe two or three times to get it right. But these muffins were different. As soon as I took the first bite I new I had something there. These muffins are mosit and chocolaty, so I’m sure you’ll fall in love as soon as you try them. Why does everyone hate the word “moist” ? I don’t know. I really think they should aim their hate towards prickles instead. Now I love prickles, but can’t wait for 2018 and the weird pickles obsession going on down the border to be over. Forever. How can I make my cake more…

    Banana Oats

    Hey peeps! Today I’m coming up with a yummy refined-sugar free, banana oats recipe! That’s the perfect breakfast recipe if you want a filling and tasty one. A lot of people find oats boring – I don’t! A few advices when making oats: 1- Add salt. It greatly influences the taste! A pinch goes a long way! 2- Add some cinnamon, honey, maple syrup or stevia as a taste enhancer! To be honest I sometimes add cinnamon as it has many benefits, including proving insuline resistance and reducing blood sugar levels, but I also love the natural taste of oats. Just try different things until you find the perfect combo!…
