Low Fodmap Beef Stew

I absolutely adore stew, especially on a cold winter evening. This Low Fodmap Beef Stew is the quintessential comfort food to me.

Warm Salmon and Potato Salad

Warm Salmon and Potato Salad

Today I am sharing with you the recipe for a hearty warm salad: Warm Salmon and Potato Salad.

Thanksgiving 2018 Round Up

As Thanksgiving 2018 is coming up, I thought it would be nice to put together a little Round-Up specifically for this occasion in honour of all my American readers.

Low Fodmap Pumpkin Pancakes

Low Fodmap Pumpkin Pancakes

Sometimes I like to have pancakes for breakfast, especially on weekends, when breakfasts often turn into brunches! These Low Fodmap Pumpkin Pancakes are so good!

Low Fodmap Soft Ginger Cookies

Low Fodmap Soft Ginger Cookies

Can you believe that Christmas is just a little over a month away? I am already starting to feel like baking cookies! And these Low Fodmap Soft Ginger Cookies are exactly what I need!

Asian Quinoa Salad

Asian Quinoa Salad

In my latest post, I shared with you a tutorial on how to cook Quinoa. Today I will show you how to make a delicious Asian Quinoa salad with it.

How to Cook Quinoa

How to Cook Quinoa

I have only recently discovered Quinoa, but I love it. Even though it has become a thing only in recent years, it is actually a very ancient seed. In fact, the cultivation of Quinoa for human consumption dates back at least 3000 years in the Andean region of South America!

Low Fodmap Wonton Soup

Low Fodmap Wonton Soup

I am so happy to share this Low Fodmap Wonton Soup with you today! It is such a comforting dish. One of those dishes that make your soul sing.

Low Fodmap Pork Wontons

Low Fodmap Pork Wontons

Today I will show you how to make some delicious Low Fodmap Pork Wontons. I have discovered wontons late in life (way too late) and after getting hooked to them, I was diagnosed with IBS.

November Menu Plan

Today I will share with you my November Menu Plan. In this post, I will not just share one recipe with all of you, but I will share a month worth of mouth-watering recipes.

Syringes filled with Bloody Mary on a plate with lime wedges.

Bloody Mary Shots

Halloween is the perfect excuse to have a little fun with drinks. These Bloody Mary Shots in syringes bring playful chills and are zesty, savoury, and made to bring extra fun to your Halloween night. I have always loved Halloween. It may not be an Italian tradition, but it reminds me of Carnevale, which has…

HALLOWEEN ROUND-UP 2018

Halloween Round-Up 2018

Knock, knock… trick or treat? Can you believe that Halloween is already around the corner? I know, crazy, right?

Buenos Aires Guide

Buenos Aires Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina last June, we also visited Buenos Aires. We stayed for 5 days in this beautiful city, which is the capital of Argentina and one of the biggest and most important cities in Latin America.

Alfajores de Maicena with Dulce de Leche filling and coconut edges, placed beside a jar of caramel.

Alfajores de Maicena

Buttery, crumbly, and filled with Dulce de Leche, these Alfajores de Maicena melt in your mouth and make every tea time feel special. A traditional treat that is simple to make and share. When I first tried Alfajores de Maicena in Argentina, I couldn’t believe how soft and delicate they were. One bite and I…

Traditional Dulce de Leche

Traditional Dulce de Leche

I am so happy about sharing today’s recipe: Traditional Dulce de Leche! If you know me, you will know that I love Nutella. Every Italian child grows up eating bread and Nutella, just like every Australian child grows up eating vegemite sandwiches and American children eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Torrontes Ice Cream

Torrontes Ice Cream

I am so happy to be able to share the recipe for Torrontes Ice Cream on the blog. Torrontes is a white wine quality, typical from the north of Argentina. So, yes… it’s white wine ice cream! And it tastes amazing!

Cafayate Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we travelled from Salta to Cafayate by car, stopping along the way in Cachi and Molinos. Cafayate is the unofficial capital of the Calchaquíes Valley. The town is also at the heart of a large wine-producing region, which comes second only to Mendoza.

Low Fodmap Chicken Stock

Low Fodmap Chicken Stock

When following the low fodmap diet, you realise that there are so many things you used to buy ready-made at the store that you just can’t have anymore. Stock is often one of them, as it generally contains garlic and/or onion.

October Menu Plan

October Menu Plan

Today’s post is a special one. In fact, I will not just share ONE recipe with all of you, but I will share a month worth of delicious recipes in this October Menu Plan.

Nutella Crostata

Nutella Crostata

Crostata has always been my favourite cake. As a child, I would always ask my mother to bake an Apple Crostata for my birthday. Today, I still bake it quite often my my children, and this Nutella Crostata is their absolute favourite.

Cachi and Molinos Guide - Argentina

Cachi and Molinos Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we travelled from Salta to Molinos, via the small colonial town of Cachi, on our way to Cafayate. We stayed one night in the tiny village of Molinos, where you feel like you have stepped back in time.

Low Fodmap Tuna Fried Rice

Low Fodmap Tuna Fried Rice

I am so happy to share today’s recipe. This Low Fodmap Tuna Fried Rice is on my menu at least once a week. That’s how good it is! I simply love it and it makes for the perfect meatless meal (yet, it’s still packed with proteins and vitamins).

How to Cook Long Grain Rice

How to Cook Long Grain Rice

I know that this post on How to Cook Long Grain Rice could seem silly to some, but I can assure you that there are many people out there who do not know what the best way to cook long grain rice is. I was one of them until I met my husband.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge

Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge

I love fudge, but since going lactose-free, it has been a bit difficult to find a good recipe for it. The one I used to make all the time is amazing, but it’s made with condensed milk, which has become a no-no for me.

Quebrada de Humahuaca Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we stayed 2 nights in the village of Purmamarca, at the entrance of the Quebrada de Humahuaca (quebrada means “canyon” in Spanish), in Argentina’s North West.

Kumquat Jam

Kumquat Jam

After sharing with you the recipe for the perfect White Sandwich Bread, I am back with a homemade Jam recipe that would go really well with that bread, especially if toasted: Kumquat Jam.
