This cream has a delicate but very special flavor, so it’s good choice as a side dish to a meat or a roast. The creamy consistency is very much like mashed potatoes, you wouldn’t believe how low in calories it is! More good news, celeriac is also rich in calcium, phosphorus, vitamin C and fiber, so it’s all advantages!

FENNEL, PARMESAN AND LEMON SALAD
This salad is so simple that you won’t imagine how delicious it is until you’ve tried it. Also it’s very light and super refreshing.
I’m not very happy with today’s photos, especially the ones of the finished salad, but I was in a rush … and hungry!. Anyway, I’m starting a one month online photography course, let’s see if we can see some results.
The salad was a bit like Continue reading
SUMMER PICNIC: SARDINE CHEESECAKE
This is like the classical cheesecake but savory, with the base made with manchego or parmesan cheese and coverage based on sardines in olive oil. I like to make this cake for those meals where everyone has to take one dish or when we have guests at home, but is also perfect for a picnic in the woods.
My bigger girl just loves picnics, so I promised her we would make one soon. Probably I’ll make this cheesecake for that picnic, or maybe I prepare another one which is pretty much the same but the coverage is made with gazpacho soup, delicious! As soon as I make it I’ll show you here.
I got it from a fantastic recipe book, Cocinar con Thermomix, from Gabriela Llamas, but I’m afraid you won’t find it in English. If you can read Spanish, you shoul really try to find one copy.
SUPER EASY PUMPKIN SOUP
It’s already nice and warm spring weather, but I love creams and soups, and this one can be taken chilled too, and is so easy and healthy that I had to show you.
But in reality all these are cheap excuses, the real reason why I post this recipe is Continue reading
COCONUT AND ALMOND COLD SUMMER SOUP
There is no turning back, I wore sandals the other day and bought myself a bikini. Spring is here and I was tempted to make a gazpacho to celebrate, but the truth is that tomatoes are not yet at their best moment, and Continue reading
BELGIAN STYLE MUSSELS
Mussels, cheapest protein! That sentence, so typical of grandmothers, is totally true. And is also true that mussels escape the curse, because apart from cheap, they are also delicious, healthy and not fattening!
The day I took the photos, I used French Mussesls or Bouchot Mussels, which Continue reading
SWEET PEAS, BROAD BEANS AND MOZZARELLA TOAST
When you read the title of this recipe, you can not imagine it’s going to be so rich, and I think it may be because we are not so used to eating fresh peas and broad beans anymore. It is a shame, because they are so refreshing and sweet, so please do me a favor and when you see peas and broad beans pods in your grocery store fill a good bag and take it home. There are many ways to cook them, I ‘ll tell you some more soon, but this toast might be the most fresh and fast. Keep in mind that if it’s not with fresh beans and peas it really isn’t worth doing it.
This toast is one more of the delicious dishes you can find Continue reading
ESCAROLE SALAD WITH POMEGRANATE AND CUMIN
This salad doesn´t really inspire me many things to tell you, so, instead of writing on and on, I´ll just go straight to the point: refreshing and light, perfect for balancing out when our main course is kind of heavy.
ASPARAGUS SOUP WITH POACHED EGG
A warm soup for grabbing the bowl with both hands. If you are lucky to be next to a fireplace then that´s heaven, but only with the soup I’ve warmed up my afternoon
I love creamy soups because they are easy, healthy, conforting and can be done with just a couple of ingredients. I prepare this one for Continue reading
