Black Lentil Quinoa Salad with Avocado

August 21, 2015 by Cris 4 Comments

A double dose of protein for tomorrow’s lunch anyone? Buttery black lentils, hearty white quinoa and chunks of avocado… Mmmmm, you bet it tastes awesome. Really awesome!

Black Lentil Quinoa Salad with Avocado

Now imagine the buttery black lentils combined with the hearty white quinoa how it goes. Avocado lends a lovely, buttery flavor and fresh oregano makes this salad look and taste alive.

5 Quick Light Meals

October 6, 2014 by Cris 4 Comments

These 5 Quick Light Meals have saved my life for the past two weeks. All of them are nutritious, light – you can have them at any time of your day and they are quick to make. It takes exactly 5 minutes to get them ready.

It’s already October – a rainy month and there is plenty of time for cooking and baking. Well, I hope you all have crazy fun moments in the kitchen and try out new recipes.

I, for one, am working hard on moving over to a self-hosted wordpress blog that will be all mine. I felt like I had to share my new project with you all as I am so excited about it – the big friendly family of bloggers. THANK YOU guys for all your support and beautiful words. It meant so much that it has convinced me to take it to the next level! 🙂 …
