When you read on instagram that your favourite cookbook authors, David Frenkiel and Luise Vindahl, are partnering with visit Sweden and organise a Swedish inspired breakfast competition, there is simply no way not to take part! For me it had to be local, seasonal and perfect for Autumn.
Special Diets
stir-fry vegetables with noodles
What do you do if you receive a stir-fry pan from BK and Go-tan and they ask you to create a nice dish for them? Yes indeed, you step into your kitchen and give it a shot.
sweet pepper soup
If anything comes with colder weather, it is soup! I love making soup and of course eating soup! It versatile, easily make vegetarian or vegan, and a great way to eat some left over vegetables. And also great to make in large quantity so you can keep some in your freezer. So, it’s good for…
carrot orange juice
Wow, those colours, so bright… I immediately want to take a zip… this must be delicious… those were my thoughts when I saw this picture. And yes, indeed, the taste was great!
fresh egg pasta dough
Home-made fresh egg pasta, that is a true treat. And it is a lot of fun to turn two basic ingredients into something so great! Shall I tell you the secret?
sea buckthorn berry jam
One of the great things of living in The Hague is that the dunes are around the corner. I love to spend my time there with the sound of the ocean in the background. And not only that… there is also great food growing in the dunes!
avocado sandwich
Avocado, everybody in my family loves them, including my little boy… who actually gets really exited when we eat them. So funny! You will not hear me complain, as avocados are an excellent source of nutrients.
kale quiche
Cabbage season is starting… so kale is for sure on my menu again! If it is not for the lovely green smoothies, it is for this lovely vegetarian quiche with an Italian twist!
rice pudding with carrot
Do you know anybody that does not like the taste of carrot cake? I don’t! If you are a carrot cake lover, like me, you should definitely try out this great recipe! Who does not want this for breakfast? It will give you a great and warming autumn feeling right away.
buckwheat pudding with caramelized grapes
oh yes, I am trying new things for breakfast… for sure now all of my attempts are successful, but this creamy buckwheat pudding is a pretty good one if you ask me. Buckwheat is gluten-free, which makes it a great replacement for other grains like spelt or non-certified oatmeal.
