Sweet and Sour Fish Kebabs
This is a great way to prepare flavourful fish kebabs. Adding pineapple is a twist to the traditional way of making kebabs that I’m used to from back home. I bet my parents won’t like this recipe but I shall try making this next time they visit us from Romania. Back home most people don’t […]
Creamy Cauliflower with Mayonnaise

Also, creamy cauliflower makes for a great appetizer to serve alongside bread slices. Time: 35 min, Prep: 15 min. Cook: 20 […]
Banana Bread and a Perfect Picnic Day
I’ve had this recipe on my “to try” list for a long time now. Since yesterday was a nice sunny day we decided to go out for a BBQ picnic with our friends. So I thought banana bread would be the perfect dessert for a picnic. Everyone loved it so I’m sure banana bread will […]

Semolina Milk Pudding
This is a pudding loved by all Romanian children, or at least it was 15 years ago when you didn’t have all the sweets that kids eat today. I remember loving it and asking my mom to make it all the time. I haven’t had this in over a decade although it’s extremely easy to […]
Cheesy Fish Fillet Casserole
We eat fish quite often for two main reasons – firstly, we love it because it’s healthy and low in fat. Researchers have proved that the omega-3 fatty acids from fish can help us turn back the biological clock and live longer. Secondly, fish is great because you can make tons of quick and easy […]
Pork Tenderloin with Mushroom Stuffing
This is such a savory recipe with a moist and flavourful stuffing. I found the recipe on mushrooms.ca but I’ve modified it slightly by adjusting the ingredients to my taste (more mushrooms of course!) and adding white wine. Here’s the original recipe. We served it with mashed potatoes and my amazing Beet Salad. Time: 55 […]
Beet Salad
This is a recipe I know from my parents. It was one of our favourite salads in my family but to my disappointment, hubby doesn’t like beets too much. I love this salad for its delicious taste but I’m also impressed with the many health benefits associated with beets. Red beets are high in carbohydrates […]
