Real life & real food
Inspired by one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam North, Pllek. I would move mountains to make some time to go get their mackerel salad or sandwich. This is my attempt to mimic the salad and its not disappointing! I forgot about fennel…., but now its back and tastier then […]
Never ever made this before, but now Im a fan. Such a good thing to have in the fridge and add to salads, or Indonesian food or something. You can make it with all kinds of veggies ofcourse, but this simple version is with cauliflower and carrot.
Yes you are busy, working on the computer, deadlines, and want to grab a quick bite. Forget that quick sandwich, instead go for a quick & easy vegetable bowl. Grabbing something done is easy, but this takes only ten minutes longer, will taste way better and will also make you […]
I love wraps, salad wraps, corn wraps, vegetable wraps, halloumi wraps, salmon wraps, what ever the.. wraps. And art puzzles, one of my guilty pleasures, that hardly anyone I know understands. Puzzles.., is that not for retired grandmas with not much to do. Well maybe, but also its something for […]
Nutritious kale in a pineapple / coconut smoothie. To not get stuck in my go to veggies, trying something different today! A kale smoothie…
This is actually a very easy dish. The key is to get the aubergines grilled juuuuust right. Not too long, not too short, just perfect. That can be subjective. Few years ago I was with my teenage daughter in Sicily (can definitely recommend that), and we had grilled aubergine in […]
This classic Indonesian vegetable dish, which literally means ‘Mix Mix’, is a very easy quick to make meal. I have been introduced to Indonesian food in my early childhood. My friend’s parents owned an Indonesian restaurant, and when I stayed over (quite regularly) we usually ate at the restaurant, not […]
A colorful, kinda crazy poke bowl. It was actually an experiment based on a papaya poke bowl, but I could not find Papaya…, hence mango it is. Very tasty and very pleasant to look at!
Sounds exciting right? Ok maybe not, but it is simple, healthy and quite tasty. Soup is becoming a dish that is growing on me. You can make a lot and put in freezer. You can feed lots of people in a short amount of time. Its also quite cheap. Soup […]
Its treasure season! Meaning the white gold is coming to the surface and can be found in stores and markets again. Its one of my favorites because it is so easy to make (especially if you kindly ask the store to peel them for you). And fast, your lunch can […]
Welcome beautiful person! Nice to see you here. My name is Peggy and this is a place for me to share. Recipes, subjects that interest me, life hazards, philosophical mind spinsels and this all in a coat of food. Im passionate about growth & transformation, in all shapes and forms. Growing myself, guiding my kids in growth, and hopefully supporting others in their growth processes. And I love.... love, sigh, thats a whole story by itself. I find that food talks life. Thats why I like my dishes to be, qualitive, simple, pretty, made with <3, yummie and sometimes a little bit messy!
