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 !
Beefless Ground Dish
Even though I’m not a vegan, I love to eat plant based proteins and I try to have a varied diet as much as possible 😊 Beefless ground is one of my favorite substitutes, so full of flavor, filling, and it mixes well with pretty much everything! I made this dish the other day and been having it for the last few days. The recipe serves 3-5 people. Ingredients: – 3 medium carrots – 2 1/4 cup soy protein – 1 medium white onion – 1 1/2 cup garden leas – 1 tbsp of vegetable oil – 6 tbsp + 1/4 cup of water – 1 tbsp tomato paste –…
Lemon Cake with Cream Cheese Glazing
So…this happened. I’m in a “lemon phase”: I had the best dessert with lemom curd and graham crackers for my birthday, and I’ve been drinking crazy amounts of sparkling water with lemon drops lately (so so refreshing). This cake is moist, delicious, sweet, everything you want in a cake. Plus, lemons help with sore throat and help fight the flu. Just saying 😎 [recipe-instructions] 1. In a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, sugar, pinch of salt and lemon zest. Mix well. 2. Add the beaten eggs, softened butter, lemon juice and gradually add the milk while stirring. 3. Grease a rectangular cake tin and bake for about…
Cauliflower and Cheese Mini-Pancakes (Low-Carb)
Basically, carbs are life but yes yes, low and no carb snacks can also be yummy 🙂 Take cauliflower for example. A vegetable not a lot of people love, but with the right spices and/or sauces, it can be super yummy. Here I added cheese, cause everyone loves cheese (I think) and it makes cauliflower less boring. I tend to put a minimal amount of salt as we grew up eatibg mostly salt-free food, but you can adjust the amount depending on your taste. Hope you like the recipe 🙂
White Chocolate Cake
You guys! By now you probably know that sometimes, I try to bake something and i stead get something completely different but equally good. Well this time I planned to make blondies (aka brownies’ white cousins) and put a tiny bit too much baking powder and not enough butter. Still got an amazing, decandent white chocolate cake my friends at the office all devored 😊
Vegan Coconut Milk Hot Chocolate
I always love a good hot chocolate. Especially from Starbucks ❤ The other day, I wanted to try something different and use my canned coconut milk to make some hot chocolate. The result was 👌 I know you will like the recipe as much as I did.
Pumpkin Seeds and Almond Porridge
Porridge is one of my favorite food and breakfast. So easy to make, so fast, so cheal amd so customizable. The thing is to make it creamy (subsitute half of the water for milk) and add a pinch of salt (very important step, as salt enhances the taste and really DOES make a difference).

Black Beans, Shrimp & Quinoa Salad
Who else loves black beans as much as I do ? I was playing around in the kitchen the other day and I absolutely loved this salad as it is full of proteins. Healthy can definitely rhyme with tasty 🙂 There you go for the recipe: [/recipe]
Strawberry-Mint Mocktail
Let’s get straight to be point. I love strawberries. I love mint (can’t avoid that, because of my moroccan genes). I love cold drinks during summer. And I love this mocktail. You will love it too I promise.
