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
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.

Garlic and Tomato Green Beans
Today’s recipe is very common in Italy, especially in the south. We often cook boiled vegetables with garlic and tomato to turn them into a flavoursome dish. This technique is called “ripassare”, which means to give the vegetables a second cooking.

Papaya Jam
I have a confession to make: my fridge is full of little home-made jam jars like this Papaya Jam. In fact, I like to have different jams available at all times, especially for breakfast. I don’t eat much of it, but I like to have options.
Easter Taralli
With Easter just around the corner, I obviously had to share a traditional Italian Easter recipe! So, today I will show you how to make Easter Taralli.
Dairy-free Chocolate Muffins
I love muffins, especially for breakfast. I haven’t grown up eating them, as in Italy they are not something you would find easily when I was little. Italians usually have coffee or cappuccino with a croissant for breakfast, especially when eating out.
