Happy Wednesday everyone. If you are feeling a little uninspired in the food department (happens to the best of us – raises hand!), I have been making a simple noodle stir-fry with a creamy sesame sauce lately that we’ve enjoyed so I thought I would share the recipe with you. I love making it with whatever seasonal veg I’ve got going. At the moment, it’s crunchy green beans and red peppers, but I’ve also made it with zucchini slices, corn, carrots – use whatever you like....

For one thing, it’s Zach’s recipe. And since my husband is… how do I say this… “still learning” how to cook, I can confidently tell you right off the bat that this is an extremely easy recipe. He made it for me on my birthday two years ago, and it has become a staple of his (along with his famous scrambled eggs- I still can’t make mine as well as he can!...

We are waving back at you from sunny La Palma – a lesser known Canary Island, which we’re currently exploring while soaking up some much needed sunshine. We’ve been here since Sunday and we’ve are enjoying this time off immensely. As I was in a bit of a rush before we left, I’ve decided to share a super simple ‘recipe’ with you today, which we have been making lately in a bid to cut down on our refined sugar intake....

Happy weekend, guys! I’m suffering from a little post-holiday blues – apparently that’s a thing. We came back from our mini break in Wales yesterday and I have found it hard to find the motivation to do things. I unpacked, put a wash on and then sank into my couch unable to get back up. Finally, after hours of procrastination, I forced myself to do some exercise and felt better....

Sometimes all you are after at the end of a long day is a quick and comforting meal so I thought I would share one of my go to pastas with you. It never stays the same as it’s flexible and I have a tendency to tinker (I guess that’s why I ended up doing THIS for a living), but the gist of it is the same – vegan broccoli pasta in a simple creamy sauce with soy-based chick’n....

How does a bowl of warming soup sound to you right now? If winter has moved in to your neck of the woods, then I’m sure you won’t be able to resist! Even we, who have been lucky enough to swap cold and wet English winters for much milder Greek ones, are finding a soup for dinner a welcome prospect right now as evenings have suddenly got windy and cold....

Happy New Year everyone, hope you managing to keep your spirits up despite continued, pandemic-related doom and gloom. UK hopes of things returning slowly to a semblance of normality after the introduction of the vaccine have been dimmed by another, at least 7 weeks long, country-wide lockdown. Oh and don’t even get me started on Brexit… I’m trying my hardest not to dwell on the state of the world but channel my energy into things I enjoy and which are good for me: cooking, yoga, running, meditation and true crime podcasts!...

Happy weekend, guys! Mine is going to be a busy one. On Saturday, I am attending my third day-long pottery workshop, which I am super stoked about. I am looking forward to honing my skills and also picking up the bowls I made last time. I cannot wait to see what they will look like once fired and glazed. After the workshop, I am hopping out of my clay-stained clothes and into something more presentable as we are going to a restaurant with Duncan’s family, to celebrate Duncan’s niece turning 21....

This past week has been somewhat hellish and I am so glad that it is over, even though this weekend won’t yet be relaxing either. On Monday, we’ve had a wall between our kitchen-diner and living room knocked down for more open-space living. While I was prepared for mess, I was not prepared for the amount of ubiquitous black dust this operation was going to generate. Had I known, I would have moved some of the stuff out of the house rather than just upstairs, as while the dust fallout was definitely worse downstairs, nothing was spared....

Last night, after 18 hrs ‘on the road’, we finally arrived on our little island in the middle of the Aegean Sea. Seeing it with fresh eyes we both went to each other: ‘how the heck did we end up living here?!’ After the extremely warm (although cold temperature-wise) reception of the never sleeping Krakow and Warsaw, middle-of-the-night Paros, with only a handful of passengers stepping off the ferry felt a bit like a desert island!...

Nothing says Xmas like the smell of cinnamon, am I right? And orange zest, and nutmeg and cloves, but cinnamon is right up there and I think it’s one spice that pretty much everyone associates with Christmas time. This is why I have been hell bent on perfecting vegan snickerdoodles, cinnamon coated sugar cookies with a gorgeously pillowy texture. I first sampled them when strolling around a Christmas market in London’s Southbank, many years ago and I have fallen in love with their flavour and texture ever since....

Happy weekend everyone! I hope you have exciting weekend plans ahead? We are still down the rabbit hole of DIY but I actually find it exciting as we are finally nearing completion. Today we received our TV sideboard, which Duncan has just finished assembling and it looks awesome, we are thrilled with it. I patched up, caulked and painted almost half of the skirting boards in the living room and they scrubbed up well although in painting them I realised that we made a bit of a mistake and painted the fireplace and the door frame with the wrong paint!...

I used a few special tricks to make this meatloaf extra delicious and healthy. First, let’s talk about the veggies. The thing about vegetables is that they have a high water content, and that water can seep out into recipes and make them soggy or less flavorful. In order to make sure the meatloaf would hold together even with lots of veggies in it, I roasted the vegetables before adding them to the meatloaf mixture....

After over 2 weeks of silence, I am so happy to be able to bring you a new recipe! Finally! You may know already, but we’ve had our second brush with Covid at the end of March and it knocked me out for over two weeks. I won’t bore you with details but long story short, I was quite ill and in no state to work. We are both overjoyed to be finally on the mend....
