easy

I was wondering what to cook for myself (my husband is travelling)  and decided to go for a fish, after all nothing better than a light, healthy dinner recipe when the weather (finally) starts getting warmer .

This baked Salmon is everything in one: simple, full of herby flavours , topped up with a refreshing lemon dill yoghurt sauce.

Maybe this is not the most photogenic recipe out there but it’s certainly an affordable option for a different meal.

It’s everything I look for when cooking: effortless, easy fast… No to mention it’s packed with powerful flavours, no wonder why I love this Lebanese dish.

I love the thick  fluffy american pancakes, but I reach out to this healthy option of Protein Pancake much more as they are as delicious and 10 times faster to prepare. Not to mention these are filled with fibres and no sugar added, they are really delicious and in a few minutes you have a healthy, diet proof  breakfast!

It’s not every day that we feel inspired or have plenty of time in hands to cook. So of these days people here in Belgium usually go for a sandwich. Which can be a great idea since you can whip it up fast, not a lot of ingredients required, and almost no dirty dishes at the end (which I really appreciate). So let me go straight to the point and share the recipe of this beauty.

The other day I was walking in the supermarket, wondering what would I cook for dinner and then I  as I was passing the fish counter, I noticed these lovely Trouts from the Belgian Ardennes . Since I love fish, I thought I should give them a try.

This was the first time I cooked whole fish by myself, and I can assure you it’s VERY easy (once they’re cleaned and gutted of course) and the trouts are ready to serve in only 15- 20 min, which also means it’s a very fast option to cook! The presentation of this dish is great and I can assure you , everybody is going to be impressed.

Okay, I love these cookies!!! Yes they’re low carb, made with sweetener, but these can fool anyone if you don’t tell them what’s in there! They are crispy and buttery, with a hint of dark chocolate… When you can have those healthy and delicious cookies I see no pain in going healthy! Trust me on this one and run to the kitchen to make a batch, and all I hope is that you can resist not eating them all at once!

Ever since I’ve moved to Belgium, I started paying more attention to the scallops. every time I would buy some fish they were there, white and shiny. And of course as curious as I am I had to try them out. Why not jump into another recipe challenge… So I did my homework one of these night I couldn’t sleep, reading all about scallops taste, recipes, how to prepare them perfectly and I’m not quite sure I nailed them yet! But I have to be honest, at the same time they’re super easier, fast to cook they also required attention so they don’t get overcooked.

I usually tend to think that most of my recipes are easy/fast to make. And this one is really one good example of a quick, effective fix for that sudden hunger, or even a starter for your guests. Doesn’t really matter the circunstances, you’re gonna be in and out of the kitchen in no time with this recipe!

This is a traditional Italian recipe, fresh and tasteful and so fast and easy to make! I made this Pesto to eat with integral pasta, but honestly this can go with sandwich, pizza, toast, bruschetta…  If you want to eat it with pasta ,all you have to do is cook up some pasta (any kind) slather on the pesto and of course to top sprinkle some Parmesan, and you’re good to go.
