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 🙂 […
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…
Chocolate Crunch
Amazing, easy to make chocolate crunch bars! Guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth!
2-Ingredients Bagels
This week I am coming with a super easy and fast to make greek yoghurt bagels recipe. Not only they’re high in protein but, since we’re using baking powder, there is no wait for the dough to rise! (I got you, suuuper annoying as I get impatient). The first time I read greek yoghurt and bagels in the same sentence, I was a bit confused. My first reaction was “yeah! greek yoghurt bagels seem healthy” but in the back of my mind, I still somehow had a little doubt about how this could work. Until I decided a few days ago to give it a go. This greek yoghurt bagels…
Express Bagels
You know those days when you just need to make something quick and tasty for breakfast ? Or when you have friends sleeping in and you need to make something delicious for brunch. Ah! Those are the days when this express bagels recipe comes in super handy. The secret being, baking powder (yes, baking powder!) is used. Meaning no wait for the dough to rise. I managed to make these bagels in less than 45min, which is quite an achievement! I also brought some to my friends at the office and they all liked them. Hope you try the recipe! These super fast to make bagels require no rising time!…
Summer Moroccan Salad
Gosh, already one week down of Ramadan. This year’s fast is going quite well – I’m less productive than usual but I don’t let it go to my head so much. The month usually goes by so fast, so I’m glad I’m doing my best at still acomplishing all the tasks I need to do. It’s quite hot in Montreal lately, meaning I have been craving fresh salads and fruits more and more. So thought I’d be sharing this with you! I grew up in Morocco where having tomatoes at home is like having bread or water: it is just so obvious. I also thought everyone else in the world…
The Best Banana Bread Recipe
If you follow my instagram, you probably know how much I love bananas, and banana bread. It’s most definitely in my top 3 favorite desserts. I have made many banana bread variations among the years. My first attempts ended up too “banany” (if that’s even a word!) or too dense, and not enough fluffy. I made this cake yesterday evening, and I absolutely fell in love with the texture of it. Banana bread is super easy to make, and you probably already have all you need at home. I always keep some bananas with me at home, some frozen to quickly threw into a smoothie or to make banana “ice…
The Best Brownies
Guys. These brownies were the bomb. Thinking about it, I have probably made brownies one or twice at most in my life. I always get flashbacks of nice childhood memories whenever I eat some, as my mom used to (and still) does make an incredible recipe. These brownies I made are soft, moist, and just the perfect brownies texture. I also added some chocolate chunks, and when they melt the brownies become gooey and all 😍 Ok, I really need to some being too graphic, and get straight to the recipe! Ingredients 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup flour 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup softened…
