how to boost your energy in the morning
Collard greens is my latest discovery. As I've mentioned in couple recipe posts, every Friday I receive a box of veggies from a local farm. Couple times my box contained collard greens, I've never tried before, so I googled it, to figure out how can I prepare them. And one of the easy ways was [...]
Today again something for veggie lovers like me 🙂 In my Friday vegetable box once I got three small gem squash. As I've never tried them before, so again I had to do some research. Gem squash is a type of summer squash and they are edible on every stage of its growth. Early gems [...]

I have a serious problem with arranging the food on a plate for photos when I'm hungry. Ideally I would just toss a bunch of veg and couple sausage, and start eating before it gets cold, and I go really frustrated trying to make some kind of aesthetic composition on the plate. Sometimes it finishes [...]
As I have mentioned, salad and fried eggs is my top breakfast option, so I'm constantly looking for new ideas, because I usually end up with the same salad made of my favourite ingredients. This time though I decided to try something different, as you may know I like adding fruits to my salads, when [...]
This summer salads are my go-to food. Since I'm on furlough, and I don't need that much energy (five months off work, can you imagine?) I've left behind high in calories meals, and I run my days eating salads. My base is usually the same, and for some people maybe boring, but I like it [...]
