Happy weekend, all! This recipe comes to you as a result of requests from some patient, kind folks who attempted to find this in my Instagram gallery (from around a year ago), and did not succeed. Here is the recipe in its entirety, along with an apology for not having it up here earlier! This…

BRUSSELS AND BEETS PIZZA- gluten-free, vegan, delicious (+ an update on Oliver)
I never could have imagined when I posted my last blog entry, that literally minutes later Oliver would be on his way back to the hospital. Nor could I have imagined that it would take yet another trip to the hospital on top of that to discover that his appendix had ruptured. As I type…
GRAIN-FREE, NATURALLY SWEET VEGAN CHOCOLATE PANCAKES (a one-bowl, easy gluten-free recipe)
As cafés and restaurants are off-limits for so many right now, those of us who love a good weekend brunch out surely miss having the option to enjoy one. Thankfully we can still enjoy a long breakfast or lazy brunch at home. And, in the case of this recipe, all it takes is one bowl,…
VEGAN SUGAR & SPICE BUNS- cardamom, cinnamon, Swedish inspiration + a spoonful of comfort
I recently mentioned an exercise I did many years ago, which involved drawing a line down the centre of a sheet of paper, dividing it into two columns. In one column I wrote a list of all of the things I had control over, and in the other a list of all of the things…
RESTAURANT FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY AND STYLING TIPS – behind the scenes with Paul Lindqvist and Marisa Alvarsson
It is said that we eat with our eyes first, but what exactly makes a restaurant dish visually appealing? The plating and general presentation do, of course. However the dining experience, the ambience and atmosphere of the restaurant cannot be underestimated. Beautiful lighting sets the mood, guides the eye and complements the restaurant theme. But…
CARAMELISED FIG SKILLET PIZZA-STYLE PANCAKES + farewell to this blog + a journey from an anonymous food blog to cookbook, part 1
It is with a very sentimental and somewhat heavy heart that I announce the impending closure of this particular blog chapter. Unless you’ve shared the good, bad and everything in between via a blog before, you probably cannot understand the attachment I have to a place that has given me the ability to connect, express…
24 DAYS OF HAPPY, HEALTHY CELEBRATION (cut the stress, get organised & eat deliciously balanced this Christmas)
As I count down to my first Christmas as a mother of 3 in a brand new home that’s barely 1/3 in order, I am simultaneously overjoyed at how blessed I am and, frankly, a little overwhelmed by the sheer enormity of keeping 3 little ones (and myself) in festive mode throughout the month of December….
SLOW-GRILLED ZUCCHINI, a recipe + Sweden’s first vegan cruise menu (this just the start[er])
On the 29th of September I had the pleasure of attending the official launch and tasting of the swanky (and ground-breaking) Birka Cruise vegan menu; purportedly the first vegan cruise menu of any of the Swedish pleasure cruise services. If you live in Sweden, you are no doubt familiar with shorter pleasure cruises, and M/S Birka is…
GREEN KITCHEN STORIES SUPPERCLUB AT URBAN DELI
An alternative name for this post could well be “We came, we ate, we listened/chatted/enjoyed!”, as this pretty much sums up my experience of meeting for the first time both the couple behind the incomparable Green Kitchen Stories, David and Luise, and Sara, the bento design queen of London (known in blog & Instagram circles as shisodelicious). After…
CINNAMON & WALNUT BUNS (a vegan, refined sugar-free take on the Swedish Classic)
And I am back with another belated recipe share! This time it’s the Swedish fika favourite: cinnamon buns. But these are not made of the same buttery dough as the original, more commonly known kind. In fact, they are dairy-free. And if that’s not enough of a departure from the classic variety, these ones are also refined sugar-free….
