This recipe for a loaded nut and chocolate cookie is a modified version of one by YouTube great CupcakeJemma. While Jemma’s original recipe is delicious (and I’d totally recommend checking it out, and her many other recipes too) I’ve cut back on the sugar and chocolate to reduce the sweetness and let the nutty flavour take precedence.
This is easily a favourite, go-to cookie!

Eating healthy can be really expensive – I get it! It’s true; only today I spent some time roaming around the health section in a supermarket and purchased just a handful of items (literally just one shopping bag’s worth of food) for around Euro 60.
Ridiculous right? However, you don’t need a bunch of super foods to eat healthy. Do I enjoy trying out different things? Yes. Do I prefer purchasing organic? Yes. Do I always eat/buy organic? NO! Why? Because it’s too expensive and too limiting.
What I do, is buy good ingredients and make whatever I can myself; this tzatziki recipe for example, takes around 5 minutes to make and is so much cheaper than buying it ready made. Now, I know time is an issue for most people, myself included, but having some really simple go-to snack recipes in your arsenal is so helpful in trying to…

Onion and Mushroom Frittata
I’m a strong advocate for throw something together using whatever you can find and hope for the best… And sometimes this fails miserably and I end up with a distasteful look on my face while I scoff down something less than mediocre. Occasionally however, it comes together nicely and that’s exactly what happened with tonight’s dinner. It’s a super easy and healthy vegetarian dish that takes no time at all. Read the recipe below to transform a few ingredients -that you probably have on hand already- into this baked delight in less than half an hour. Feel free to add any vegetables you have on hand; I would love to add spinach next time. This would also be great served with a side salad or some steamed greens.
Ingredients:
1/2 white onion (diced)
Hand full of sliced mushrooms (I used button)
4 eggs
Grated cheese

This post is actually connected to the last one (egg stuffed mushroom).
Because I Scratched off the black gills of portoballo mushroom. Didn’t want to throw them away. So I came up with this soup.
Very easy and nice soup.

Have you ever had days when you oke up and craved to gorge into one particular thing? No? Lucky you. But sadly, last Saturday was exactly that kind of a day for me, when I woke up craving for a hearty pesto spaghetti.
I am a person who generally doesn’t order in food. I prefer going out to eat, or eating home cooked food. Looking at the gloomy, wintry weather outside, I promptly dismissed the thought of going out and started ransacking my pantry instead. Well, there was boneless chicken in the freezer and also a brand new box of spaghetti, ready to go wiggly, right in front of my eyes. All that remained now were the things needed for a pesto sauce.
So what are the ingredients in a traditional pesto sauce? A very basic version would contain the following:

Once upon a time, I was a kid, and my affair with cooked greens was non-existent. I simply refused to eat them. They just didn’t “smell” nice.
This dish is not all green but still I refused to eat it. It involved cooked greens. No amount of begging could make me even try it. My sister ate it with yogurt. I could not. No spanakorizo for me please… Until the day I harvested my first spinach from my own small vegetable garden and wondered what to do with it 😉 .
Now I beg my own kids to eat it. And they refuse – and I understand them. ‘But it is very yummy, and healthy too!’, but they are still not convinced. So we make a deal: two spoonfuls of spanakorizo, accompanied by a generous portion of homemade fries. Last time I made it, 3 out of 4 kids ate…
