This recipe is a holiday favorite with my family since I was born, my Dad has been making this since his 20’s and it’s still a stand-by every Thanksgiving – I just love traditions! It actually started out as a spinach soufflé, but that tends to get stressful as you need to bake it in…
Pumpkin Raisin Muffins
I have to admit, I’m one of those people…the ones who can’t get enough pumpkin once the leaves start falling and football comes on TV. In college, me and my girlfriends used to drive almost an hour for pumpkin ice cream, I just can’t get enough of it! My favorite way to eat pumpkin, however,…
London Market-ing: Broadway
There’s no place I’d rather spend a Saturday. London’s markets are truly special – they bring together people from all walks of life and highlight neighborhoods that you might not explore otherwise. Broadway Market is located in NE London in the Borough of Hackney and is absolutely worth a visit. It is a fairly wide…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 16
So, it’s actually Monday – but, the UK equivalent of Labor Day is today so I did my cooking today instead of on Sunday. I’m super excited for the menu this week – so many healthy options! Here’s what I made: Breakfast – Blueberry Banana Oat Muffins for me (served with full-fat greek yogurt) and zucchini…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 15
I’ve missed a few weeks of SMP, but I’m back and this is the 15th installment! Here’s what I made this week: Breakfast – Cinnamon Raisin Muffins, served with cashew butter and full-fat greek yogurt Lunch – Mango Salmon with Roasted Broccoli/Cauliflower and a Blueberry/Feta Grain Salad Dinner – Beef/Black Bean Tacos, served in corn tortillas with guac,…
Weekend Travel: Norway
Scandinavia is one of those places I’ve always wanted to go, and now seemed as good a time as any to finally get up there! To be fair, I didn’t know too much about Norway before we booked our trip – I knew Oslo was the capital, their salmon was the best in the world…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 14
Week 14’s menu looks fantastic and, as always, I hope it gives you ideas for things to make! One of the most frustrating parts of meal prep is deciding what to make – there are SO many recipes on the internet, but sometimes I don’t even know what to search for. If you go back…
Carrot Cake Breakfast Bars
Carrot cake is one of those things I love more than anything – it has such a rich flavor and while I normally don’t love carrots on their own, they add so much in this dessert. With that said, normal carrot cake isn’t the healthiest (I know, I’m doing a bake-off for work this week…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 13
It is finally warming up here in London, such a nice treat! I’m slowly learning that we won’t have what I consider a ‘traditional’ summer – i.e. hot and humid, but since we don’t have air conditioning that’s probably for the best! This week’s menu looks great, I tried out a few new things that…
Tamale Casserole
I am so excited about this recipe – it is unbelievably comforting, filling and would be great to feed a crowd, as it feels ‘unhealthy’ but isn’t! To be transparent, I got the idea for this recipe from Cooking Light – one of my favorite cooking magazines that I used to subscribe to back in…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 12
I had brunch plans with an old co-worker at 11:30 this morning, I was able to get this all one before brunch! If you are short on time, go for fish/seafood – it takes only minutes to cook opposed to meat that takes much longer if cooking in the oven. Another huge time saver is…
Sunday Meal Prep – Week 11
Sunday Meal Prep has been on hiatus for the past few weeks – I have a tendency to put everything into Tupperware before remembering to take a picture! This week I remembered and am super excited about the menu for the week ahead and hope it’ll give you some inspiration for your menu planning as…
