Fresh snow pea quinoa salad

I’m ashamed to say I was tempted to keep this recipe only for my Spring and Summer e-book, but I just couldn’t. EVERYONE should know about this one – it is so healthy, yum, and perfect for the season. Whether you just want it as a side or as a main, this pretty salad is […]

Healthier sticky date pudding

An awesome vegan recipe for sticky date pudding.

Pretty quinoa tofu avocado salad

Silken tofu is high in water content and has a smooth custard-like texture, which make it perfect to serve raw in salads or starters. It’s light, high in protein and pairs wonderfully with any kind of Asian dressing, like the one in this salad.

Kale, Catalan style

When I was in my twenties, I had the opportunity to visit Barcelona a few times for work. Ask me what I did while there, not entirely sure, but I do recollect counting the minutes until their 2 pm lunch time so I could run to the local restaurant and have me a big plate […]

Superb aubergine “pkhali”

While touring Georgia last week, we ate about 5 different versions of eggplant “pkhali”, which is what they call their savory dips. You’ll find it in most restaurants, almost always served with delicious warm traditional Georgian bread. This version was probably my favorite because it has walnuts, a star ingredient of the country’s cuisine, which […]

The Kids’ Chocolate Granola

My last chocolate granola recipe dates back to over a year ago – and though it was a hit with the adults, my kiddos weren’t sold because it “didn’t taste like chocolate”. Eye roll…fair enough. So recently, I went back to the drawing board to create one that would be more appealing to a child’s […]

Guilt-free breakfast blueberry bars

If I made a roundup of my favorite on-the-go breakfasts, these babies would top the list. They’re a snap to make and tick all the boxes when it comes to my idea of the perfect morning food: high in taste, rich in fiber (y’all know how important that is to me), gluten free, packed with […]

Absolutely sinful banana moelleux

There are a ton of gluten free, processed sugar free and vegan banana bread and cake recipes out there. But this one stands out. You don’t eat it because it’s healthy, you eat it because it looks like chocolate cake and tastes like a little piece of heaven. In French, we use an expression: “c’est […]

Spiced up toasted chickpeas

I love cocktail hour: the flowing conversation, the nice wine, the endless delicious nibbles that open up your appetite for the meal to come…I also see it as a great opportunity to try out new appetizers like these perfectly seasoned roasted chickpeas. They are fab and a perfect swap for the usual peanuts or cashews […]

Fab lentil coconut curry

When I try to keep things simple, wholesome and satisfying, curry is one of my solutions. This one is also particularly nutritious thanks to the green lentils and all the anti-inflammatory spices. I use French Puy lentils because they keep their shape when cooked for a long time and because they tend be less gas-forming […]
