If you love crunchy, salty and savoury chips, and you’re convinced a satisfying, healthy version doesn’t exist, you’re wrong. These oven roasted kale chips are truly crunchy and addictive, without compromising on the health aspect. Kale chips were all the rage back in 2005-2010 but have since faded in popularity. But I’m here to prove…
There’s nothing eww about these noodles (sorry, had to make this lame joke – too tempting!), they are packed full of umami flavour, even without any wok action – which I sadly don’t have. This wonderful, hearty, stick-to- your-ribs noodle dish comes from Thailand (like so many good things) – and it’s one of my…
You know what they say, “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”, and I feel the same way about this gorgeous chocolate cake. I discovered this black beauty in an Ina Garten’s Barefoot contessa tv-episode – some 10 years ago, where she referred to it as “Aunt Beatty’s chocolate cake”, or something along those lines….

Chia seeds are chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, protein, iron and calcium. It’s super quick and easy to assemble, only takes about 2-3 minutes. I suggest preparing…
If your are on the hunt for an amazing raw vegan pesto that you can put on nearly anything, you’ve in luck, cause this is it amigo. I tasted this pesto first in a semi-raw vegan restaurant in Reykjavik, called Gló. It was so good I could barely think of anything else for the next…
Arguably one of the best selling bakery items in Iceland is the humble cheese twist (ostaslaufa). Pillowy white bread, filled with cheese and sprinkled with sesame- and poppy seeds. I’ve certainly had my fair share of them in the past, especially in my youth and my college days. But, somehow I’ve always felt they were…
I lived in Italy for about a year and a half, and I remember seeing these funny big tins of cakes before Christmas in every shop. I wasn’t really drawn to them at the time, so I never tried them while I was in Italy. Later in life, I started to appreciate a good brioche,…
