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.

Coconut Pancakes
Pancakes and me is the best love story 💕. Apparently when my parents were in the states they used to be obssessed with Aunt Jemima’s ones, and they’ve naturally transmitted the passion to me. My best childhood memories are waking up in the morning during the summer vacation to find large pancakes made by my mom qnd eat them, drizzled with a mix of butter and honey, while watching Malcolm in the Middle and Disney Channel. But enough talking, here’s the recipe 🙂 Ingredients 1/4 cup coconut flour // 1/4 cup all-purpose flour // 1/4 tsp baking powder // 2-3 tsp sugar // 1.5 tsp butter or magarine // 1…
White Irish Soda Bread
When I was living in England, I used to get irish soda bread from the store ALL the time. For those who don’t know, orish soda bread is special in that it doesn’t use yeast. Hence, you don’t wait for the dough to rise. And it’s got buttermilk in it, making it super yummy and easy to make. I saw a lot of recipes online use eggs and butter, and plenty of other ingredients, but then that’s a cake. Real, traditional soda bread only has flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk. Well I added some sugar in this one but just so it is softer. So there you go: Ingredients…
Patriotic Popsicles (Strawberry/Blueberry)
To be honest with you guys, I was never a massive fan of ice cream. Don’t get me wrong, I do eat it when given the occasion and I find looking at ice cream cones pictures satisfying. However, I could stop eating it for the rest of my life 😌 However, with #popsicleweek and two national holidays coming up (Canada Day and the 4th of July), I thought let’s make some healthy popsicles. So there you go 🙂 Ingredients 1 1/4 cup yoghurt // 1 tbsp honey // 3/4 cup strawberries // 1/3 cup blueberries // 2 tsp lemon juice // 2 tsp sugar Instructions Wash the fruits and dice…
