Hey there! This is another simple weeknight classic we are having quite frequently in this household. I am talking about a basic stir-fry. There are obviously lots and lots of different and delicious stir-fry recipes out there but I still decided to add my very own version to this already humongous selection. I love…

Pumpkin Capuns – a Swiss classic made vegetarian
Hey there! I once again have to start my post with a story from my childhood. So, my family never travelled lots, at least not outside Switzerland. My parents were convinced that it was absolutely pointless to go on big city trips with eight or nine year olds, which I can now completely agree…
Spaghetti, the not so ordinary way – chickpeas, Swiss chard and some Moroccan flavours
Hi there! I haven’t made spaghetti in a while, have I? I think the only time I posted a spaghetti recipe on this blog was also the last time I ate spaghetti, insane, don’t you reckon? How could I have not eaten a plate of spaghetti in so long? Well as you…

At first I was going for something Moroccan inspired, then however I decided to experiment with some new flavours. At…
Vegan Summer Bean Stew
Hey there! The other day I was looking through the legume drawer in my kitchen and just then I realised that the variety has decreased drastically over the past months. The only thing I could find were o few packs of green lentils and chickpeas and in the darkest corner a lonely half…
Chickpea Summer Salad
Hey there! I’ve got another quick and easy summer salad for you. Today’s recipe was inspired by a couscous salad I had at les halles in Zurich, a restaurant, which is worth being checked out just for its unusual location and interior design. Not forgetting the food, which is absolutely divine. Since I didn’t…
