White Sandwich Bread

White Sandwich Bread

I absolutely adore homemade bread and I try and bake some as often as I can. My go-to bread recipe is this easy to make Ciabatta, as I love bread with a crunchy top. However, I also like homemade sandwich bread. I find it much easier to digest than store-bought ones.

Low Fodmap Calamari Risotto

Low Fodmap Calamari Risotto

I am so happy about sharing the recipe for this Low Fodmap Calamari Risotto with you! As you may know, I was born in Milan which is the place where risotto was first invented.

Salta Guide

Salta Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we stayed 3 separate nights in the city if Salta, in Argentina’s North West. We didn’t stay for 3 consecutive days but used Salta as a “stop-over” in between other destinations during our road trip in the region.

Malbec Ice Cream

Malbec Ice Cream

I am so excited about today’s recipe: Malbec Ice Cream. Malbec is a red wine quality, typical from the north of Argentina. So, yes… it’s red wine ice cream everyone! And it tastes amazing!

Orange, Blueberry, Passion Fruit Smoothie

Orange, Blueberry, Passion Fruit Smoothie

I love a good smoothie, especially for breakfast or as a mid-morning snack. I find that having a glass of sweet fruity smoothie keeps me full till lunch time. The fact that that glass of goodness is also packed with vitamins is definitely a plus.

Low Fodmap Orange Quinoa Loaf

Low Fodmap Orange Quinoa Loaf

I love to have something sweet with my afternoon tea. I discovered this Low Fodmap Orange Quinoa Loaf a couple of months ago, and I liked it so much, that I made it many times ever since.

Iguazu Falls Guide – Argentina and Brazil

During our recent trip to South America, we also visited Iguazu Falls. This was one of the must-do’s from our bucket list, so I am very happy we could add it to the trip!

Garlic Scallops

Garlic Scallops

  After sharing with you my recipe for Pasta with Scallops and Lobster Oil, I am back with another recipe featuring scallops: Garlic Scallops.

Pasta with Scallops and Lobster Oil

Pasta with Scallops and Lobster Oil

Yep. You read that right! Scallops AND Lobster Oil! Intriguing, isn’t it? To tell you the truth, the Lobster Oil was a very pleasant discovery, as I was not familiar with it.

Santiago de Chile Guide – Chile

During our recent trip to Chile and Argentina, we stopped for 3 days in Santiago. Coming from Australia, Santiago is the main hub into South America, so we will likely be back. Like us, many people visit Santiago on their way to other destinations in the area. Some people do not even stop! However, I…

When we were in Santiago de Chile, we had some delicious Pisco Sour. A Pisco Sour is an alcoholic cocktail of Peruvian origin that is typical of both Chile and Peru. It is considered somewhat of a South American classic.

Maple Peanut Butter Popcorn

Maple Peanut Butter Popcorn

I love popcorn and I often make for the family when we stay home to watch a movie on the weekend. Popcorn makes a great snack, even for people with digestive problems.

Low Fodmap Orange Cakes

When it’s tea time, I often feel the need for a quick snack, better if of the sweet kind. Following the Low Fodmap diet can make things hard, especially since I am having trouble with fructose.

One-pot Mediterranean Eggplant Rice

One-pot Mediterranean Eggplant Rice

How do you feel about one-pot meals? I think they are awesome and I definitely don’t make them enough. Easier clean-up is always nice, right?

Low Fodmap Buckwheat Peanut Butter Cookies

Low Fodmap Buckwheat Peanut Butter Cookies

I looooove cookies and the crunchier the better. I have to say that cookies in Italy are usually always crunchy. The Italian name for cookies is biscotti after all, and that means “cooked twice”.

Low Fodmap Salmon Cakes

Low Fodmap Salmon Cakes

I must admit that I am not a huge seafood lover. However, I eat fish at least twice a week. So, I am always looking for different ways to serve it to the family, just to keep things interesting.

Low Fodmap Macadamia Brownies

Low Fodmap Macadamia Brownies

There are times when only a chocolate brownie can satisfy your craving for sweets. As I am much more careful about what I eat since starting the low FODMAP diet, I am not having as many sweets as I used to.

Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad

Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad

I love chicken salads, don’t you? This Low Fodmap Chicken and Potato Salad tastes amazing and will keep you full and satisfied. If you can’t eat bread, the potatoes will help fill you up. However, you can still enjoy this salad in a sandwich of you want.
