Real food for real life.
This is actually a very easy dish. The key is to get the aubergines grilled juuuuust right. Not too long, not too short, just perfect. That can be subjective. Few years ago I was with my teenage daughter in Sicily (can definitely recommend that), and we had grilled aubergine in […]
This is variation on the classic Indonesian vegetable dish, so a modern gado gado, which literally means ‘Mix Mix’ and is a very easy quick to make meal. I have been introduced to Indonesian food in my early childhood. My friend’s parents owned an Indonesian restaurant, and when I stayed […]
“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, then what are we to think of an empty desk?” A quote often attributed to Albert Einstein. If your house is a reflection of your brain, mine, I would say, is chaotic, cosy and always a work in progress. […]
A crunchy cauliflower salad wrap tucked into lettuce or Chinese cabbage leaves, with red onion, chili, herbs, toasted almonds, and tahini dressing. Light, fresh, and quick to make.
A colorful, kinda crazy poke bowl. It was actually an experiment based on a papaya poke bowl, but I could not find Papaya…, hence mango it is. Very tasty and very pleasant to look at!
Sounds exciting right? Ok maybe not, but it is simple, healthy and quite tasty. Soup is becoming a dish that is growing on me. You can make a lot and put in freezer. You can feed lots of people in a short amount of time. Its also quite cheap. Soup […]
Its treasure season! Meaning the white gold is coming to the surface and can be found in stores and markets again. Its one of my favorites because it is so easy to make (especially if you kindly ask the store to peel them for you). And fast, your lunch can […]
Make no mistake, I love coffee. Not just the substance, but the way it smells, especially from freshly grounded beans, mmmm such an interesting layered smell. I love the tradition around coffee, getting together on a terras in Paris for a cafe au lait in the morning. Having your morning […]
Another green delight in a glass. With a spicy kick from the ginger, and a sass from the lime. A well balanced smoothie to start the day. If you are in a hurry or don’t have all the ingredients in the house, with a foundation of spinach, mango and water, […]
There is a whole world out there where psychedelics have become an increasingly accepted part of people’s lives. One part of that world is called microdosing. I had been hearing all these stories about people becoming more relaxed, happy, creative, connected, alive and focused. People talked about life-altering experiences, getting […]
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.
