Easy microwave oatmeal with cashews and cinnamon
Today I have a quick and easy microwave oatmeal for you. Sweet and rich and creamy with cashew butter and a lot of cinnamon. The best thing about it? Within 5 minutes you have a steaming bowl in front of you, so this recipe is perfect for hectic and stressful mornings. Nothing is more annoying […]
The perfect scrambled eggs with garlic-spinach
I love scrambled eggs. This adoration goes back until my early childhood and manifests in my favourite meal cooked by my granny – scambled eggs with spinach, which she deliberately ‘stirred cold’ in front of the frontdoor so that us poor, impatient grand children didn’t burn their mouths and could start eating right away. Good […]
Yellow coconut curry with pineapple
After all that feasting in the last weeks – pb cups, chocolate cake, French toast – I felt like having some extra portion of vegetables for a change. This yellow coconut curry is stuffed with lots different and colourful veggies. Carrots, celery, leeks, peppers and broccoli. I’ve also added some juicy pineapple for that extra […]
No-bake peanut butter chocolate cake
Yeah, I did not bake again! This time I’m going all out with chocolate, cashews and peanut butter. Big in taste – and calories but still on the healthier dessert side – no added sugars and no flour are in this no-bake chocolate cake, Having said that I would still not recommend to eat this […]
Savoury French Toast with cheese & mushrooms
My first home made French toast ever was a savoury one. Say whaaat!? As much as I love desserts and sweet stuff, savoury food always comes first (my recipe archive is witness to this thesis). So if you’re looking for a sweet French toast recipe you’ll have to look somewhere else (for now). Today it’s […]
Pulled Salmon Bagel with Avocado
Pulled Salmon is a term I took over from the Pulled Pork, that incredibly tender and soft pork roast which is drowned in BBQ sauce and can literally be pulled apart without any effort. This pulled meat is a perfect base for burgers, sandwiches and the like. Unfortunately I am one of those impatient brats […]
Mediterranean penne salad with olives and arugula
Sometimes you make a recipe draft and fall in love with it right from the beginning. This just happened to me with this garlic fried penne pasta with olives, dried tomatoes, capers, walnuts and fresh rocket salad. My bf Grimm announced this dish as his new favourite food right away. And I have to admit […]
Creamy, garlicky mashed sweet potatoes
I already promised it at the end of last year. Our stuffed and roasted Christmas pumpkin was served with creamy, garlicky mashed potatoes for which a recipe didn’t exist yet, shame on me! But after being bugged obtrusively by hosts of people (at least 2!) to finally fork out the recipe – it’s here.
Peanut Butter & Jelly Cups (only 5 ingredients)
Just like last year you won’t see any lovely love is everywhere valentines day recipes from me. #sorrynotsorry I’m simply to bitter, cold and happily in love for such consumption oriented holidays. My human of choice is always suffocated with love, affection and food, we’re definitely not in need for a special day on which […]
Dining without remorse: 9 affordable restaurants in Hamburg
Hamburg is quite the pretty German city, eh? Definitely worth a visit. Yet, considering the costs for accommodation, guided tours, tickets and stuff you might run out of cash faster than you can say ‘Elbphilharmonie’. Hence, for the temporary completion of the ‘Food Guide Hamburg’ I got you covered with the 9 most affordable and best […]
Cream of Broccoli Soup with Hummus
In Winter I (re)discovered my love for soups. I have to admit that was never the biggest fan of soups. Not as a starter and certainly not as a full-featured main course – for me it was lacking the texture and bite… well, and I was lacking the appreciation for this amazing dish. But during […]
How to steam vegetables without a steamer
You would like to gently steam your vegetables, but are absolutely not up to finding a new spot in your cupboards for yet another bulky kitchen device? Well, then why don’t you try it with your good ol’ pal the kitchen strainer?
