Completely in BLF style, this lush mushroom ramen is something you can fix in about 15 minutes, even though it looks like you’ve been in the kitchen for quite a while. It’s warm, full of veggies and mushrooms, has a little spice to it and makes a perfect lunch as […]
This pumpkin chickpea curry is so full of nutrients. It is one of those dishes that manages to be proper comfort food while still packing in a lot of good stuff. This is my quick version, made with just a handful of ingredients and very little effort. Sometimes you want […]
Amazingly delicious and simple grilled chicken avocado salad. Dinner or lunch will be served in 10 minutes!

When I first tried these vegetable fajitas, I was blown away. Seriously, the combination of these flavours just works! They’re based on a Marley Spoon dish from more then ten years ago, and I still make them. Sometimes they just stick. The sweet potato and red onion get lovely and […]
Sometimes less is really more. The most simple easy broccoli soup imaginable. Makes you appreciate the little things, appreciate the taste of just 1 product, the broccoli. Side note, one of the most nutritious vegetables out there. High in vitamine C & K, rich in fiber, antioxidant (molecules that shield […]
A colourful lentil salad with roasted sweet potato, green asparagus, avocado, tomatoes and crunchy cashews, finished with a simple honey mustard dressing. Fresh, nourishing and perfect for days when you want something healthy that still feels comforting.
Hello you, My name is Peggy and this is a place where I share recipes, life hazards, philosophical mind spinsels and everything somehow wrapped in a coat of food. Because I find that food talks life. I love dishes that are quick, nourishing, pretty, made with love and sometimes a little bit messy. Real food for real life.
