Cheesy Cauliflower Muffins

March 9, 2015 by Cris 16 Comments

Hellooooooo new baby muffins. I bet you’re going to love these cheesy muffins too that feature raw cauliflower and spinach . So easy, so tasty, so different – just on time for your breakfast or afternoon snack or … Actually, why not have them any time you want, they are guilt-free!

Cheesy Cauliflower Muffins
Baking on the weekend has become a weekly ritual. After working on the computer all week, I enjoy to be on my feet in the kitchen on the days in between. Reaching for my camera while I turn on the oven and blend the cauliflower, trying hard not to make a big mess AGAIN. It’s a dance of sorts.

But then I wouldn’t fully appreciate “my creations” without cleaning the mess afterwards, right?! 🙂

Anyway, in another quest to diversify my healthy afternoon snack repertoire, yesterday I found a perfectly portioned kind of muffin that it is nutritious, light and so damn delicious….

Spinach and Walnuts Pesto with Pasta

February 6, 2015 by Cris 5 Comments

Let me introduce you to a healthy pesto sauce made out of fresh spinach, walnuts and extra-virgin, unfiltered olive oil. Wait, I am not done yet! 🙂 And now try to imagine how this beautiful pesto tastes with some pasta. I bet your kids will love it too!

Spinach and Walnuts Pesto with Pasta
Have you tried this pesto recipe yet? To my surprise, it’s so damn tasty and it’s ready in 5 minutes flat; not to mention that it’s packed with super foods.

Every now and then, I like to try out a new recipe or to add a new twist to an old one. So two days ago I realized that I hadn’t had pasta in quite some time. Having already this pesto in mind to try it out, I said why not, especially given that Wednesday evening I am heading to the gym.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not eating a large meal immediately before any kind of exercise because your body will try to digest it which takes energy. However, I still like to take my portion of carbohydrates on the workout day but about 3 hours before working out….

Chickpeas, Spinach & Feta Cheese Snack

November 3, 2014 by Cris 2 Comments

A delicious and quick to make kind of snack topped with chickpeas, spinach, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, chillies, a drizzle of olive oil and oregano. Heaven!

Chickpeas, Spinach & Feta Cheese Snack
I realized the other day that I haven’t posted a snack recipe here in a while. And it’s not because I don’t eat healthy snacks that often (which would be a big lie), but it’s mostly because I personally believe that it’s not enough for a quick and easy snack to make such a representation on the blog….
