    Dill Sandwhich Spread

    Last Saturday, I went to Montreal’s Vegan Festival and had an amaaazing vegan hot-(non)dog. Juicy, big, thick, with lots of sauce. That was clearly the highlight of my week 🙂 Anyways, was walking down the supermarket aisles the other day when I noticed they had hot dog bread. By chance, the vegan section was not far, so I obviously had to take some sausages. Back home, I then created a yummy vegan hot dog, with dill sauce. It’s super easy to make and, to be honest, I didn’t really measure the quantities. You can put this spread on any sandwhich, of mix it with any kind of veggies or meat. Gorgeous.…

    Chocolate cupcakes topped with peanut butter

    I’m a big fan of chocolate. And peanut butter, even though I have to eat it with caution and in moderation to avoid allergic outbursts (I am allergic to nuts in general). Well, the other day I decided to mix both of them together 🙂 What is good is that there is no butter or oil at all. Also, I only put an egg white instead of a whole egg. The recipe serves 6. Ingredients 3/4 cup of flour – 1 tsp of baking powder – 40g of sugar – 1 tsp of honey – 1 tbsp of cocoa powder – 1 tsp of coffee powder – 1/3 cup of…

    Breakfast Tortilla

    I swear, I didn’t do it on purpose. Actually, I just realized even the green and red colors remind me of Mexico. It’s Sunday, so hell yeah, I wanted a fancy brekkie. This tortilla IS fancy and vegan friendly, so there you go for the “recipe” (which is not really one). Ingredients : 1 medium tortilla // 1/3 cup of cubbed and already cooked tofu // 1/4 cup of sliced button mushrooms // 1/4 cup of baby tomatoes // a handful of arragula // some sliced olives to put on top // margarine or butter to grease the pan // soy sauce // (optional) pepper and salt to taste //…

    Since I moved to Canada, I’ve been so obsessed with fall, and doing all the activities related to it. It’s probably because I have always lived in countries where the fall season is not that obvious. I am still amazed at the beautiful orange/red/yellow shades of leaves. To celebrate fall and pumpkins, I prepared these cupcakes the other day. Look at this cute little tower (NB: they may or may not have fell after I took this picture).   Here is the recipe 🙂 Ingredients 1/2 cup of wholewheat flour // 1/4 cup of white flour // 1tsp of baking powder // 40g of brown sugar // 2 egg whites…

    Classic iced cake

    Classics never go out of fashion, right! I made this yummy cake the other day and I’m in love 🙂 I don’t really have a sweet tooth, thank God for that, but I do appreciate a moist cake from time to time. However, the sugar overload is sometimes ridiculous! Especially as it is absolutely not necessary. The secret is so put egg whites instead of whole eggs. That’s less fat, and the taste is absolutely the same, believe me! But well, enough talking, let’s talk about the real superstar here. Gorgeous. I mean, come on! Okay. I need to stop the foodporn now. Let’s dooo this Ingredients For the cake:…

I’ve been looking for ages for a healthy recipe so I can indulge in my guilty pleasure more often. I have been looking at various recipes and finally tried this version. Believe me, it was absolutely delicious 😋…

    Plum and Peach Jam

    Summer rhymes with jam right ? I was strolling in Edgware Road today and found some Kilner jars. I have never owned one myself, so I decided it was time to. I totally  bought the jar and then decided what to put into it, because I am cool like that 🙂 Today was the first day I have ever prepared a homemade jam. Jam is so easy to make and everyone should start I believe. Fruits, sugar, water, and any additives (spices, caramon, anise, cinnamon etc), and you’re good to go!   Ingredients: 240g of peaches 240g of plums 250g of sugar (more or less) 1 tbsp of maple syrup…

    Summer Fruity Porridge

    I absolutely love berries. Especially when they’re frozen! I’ve never been a big fan of sweets, thank goodness, so frozen berries are a good compromise, especially during hot spring and summer days. So I tend to put frozen berries on top of as many dishes as I can, porridge included I made this porridge a while ago and thought I might share it with you 🙂 Let me know what you think in the comments below!     Ingredients 3/4 cup of rolled oats // 300 ml of almond milk // 1.5 tsp of honey or maple syrup // 1 tsp of chia seeds // 1/3 cup of peach slices //…
