Using leftovers from your kitchen it's a great opportunity to step out of the box and use some ingredients in a different way than usually. I had three large flat mushrooms and hard boiled eggs that I cooked for a salad that I didn't make.

two ingredients keto pancakes
Another Summer comfort food recipe. Scotland is not the hottest place in the world and to be honest I don't feel like there's a place for typical Summer staples - all the meals and drinks that supposed to cool you down a bit and soothe the warmed by the sun body and mind. I would … Continue reading two ingredients keto pancakes

chocolate dumplings with apricots
As I probably mentioned before lately we don't eat a lot of meat, maybe once or twice a week.

And I had to switch on the heating … Continue reading how to summon Spring? cacao crepes with banana and blackberry jelly

4 ingredients Rafaello (no sugar)
Another Instagram inspired recipe. I think I need a rehab, because my head gets overloaded with all the Instagram photos and ideas I would like to try. And obviously there's not enough time in the world I would be able to try them all. I got to the point that I consume more (content) than … Continue reading 4 ingredients Rafaello (no sugar)
apricot pancakes
That's a really old recipe and really old photos, but I have a fondness for these apricot pancakes. Recipe comes from a recipe book from the 80's. I've made them years ago, but still when I look at these photos it reminds me of hot Summer days when life was a bit more gentle. Not … Continue reading apricot pancakes
grilled aubergine and chickpeas salad with sumac dressing
I'm a sucker for a good salad. Recently salads became my go to lunch options, I just open my fridge early in the morning and I pack my luchbox with bunch of veg with occasional addition of meat, cheese or egg.
