Halloumi, Avocado and Strawberry Summer Salad

I am writing this post on a proper Norwegian summer day; it’s raining outside and 15 degrees Celcius, though I promise, the weather was much nicer when I came up with the idea for this salad. Here in Norway, in-season, Norwegian strawberries are very much the summer staple, so they’re a must, even in salads. […]

Spelt Focaccia with Fresh Rosemary and Sundried Tomatoes with Homemade Vegan Aioli

Pistachio Cream

More pistachios! Perhaps my favourite nut of all the ones I’ve tried – beautiful, delicious, crunchy, vibrant green – impossible not to love! I know, there have been a lot of them lately on my blog and that they’re a bit pricey, at least in Norway, but please forgive me. There was on sale. And […]

Baked Sweet Potato Tacos in Kragerø

Easter break! Finally! I’ve been looking forward to travelling with my mother to Kragerø – a tiny, beautiful and cozy coastal town in Southern Norway. First and foremost, we’re here to visit my mother’s oldest friend, who lives in a beautiful house by the sea. Not only had we planned to visit, but I had […]
