Cheese and Spinach Borek

Borek is stuffed pastry and hugely popular within Middle Eastern cuisine. They are amazing to have for breakfast or a mid-day snack with tea. For the filling, I’ve combined spinach and the Violife cheese together to bring a nice creamy texture and flavour. These are a real crowd pleaser and super fun to make! Ingredients: […]

Salted Caramel Truffles

Pad Thai Edamame Noodles

My newest favourite food is Organic Edamame Spaghetti. It is made with only edamame (green soybeans) and water. No weird stuff added that I can’t pronounce, which is always handy. I must say that I do have a stronger love for these than the black bean spaghetti; they have a much more of a starchy-rice-noodle consistency and […]

Quinoa Bread Loaf

I’m a big fan of challenges in the kitchen because I find that they keep me motivated to eat healthily, and come up with new ideas. This morning I was craving avocado on toast but was ran out of the rye bread I normally would have, so I decided to create my own healthy bread loaf. It’s […]

Apple Winter Crumble

Nearing the end of November and beginning of the month of December only means one thing. Winter is upon us! What better way to start a chilly, crispy morning with a delicious bowl of warm apple crumble (with vanilla ice cream if you desire for an added texture and flavour). Since it’s also the apple […]

It has to be one of my ultimate comfort foods ever since I was younger and when cooking it, it will leave your kitchen smelling incredibly delicious! Many say that Dolma is a difficult dish to master and […]
