I’m obsessed with my food processor. I missed it so much while I was in London and I only had it for about two years.
I remember when I saw it standing all dusty in my boyfriend’s parents kitchen, on top of the cupboard. I was immediately intrigued about all the new cooking opportunities that this handy device has to offer. Needless to say, I saved it from an unfilled life and took it home with me :)
I came back from London just in time to celebrate Easter with my family. This year I wanted to do something a bit creative. Inspired by Sweetapolita, I decided to make my own easter nests, made out of meringue. Something about edible easter nests appealed to me. And I filled them with chocolate goodies from London.
Too much food between the holidays? Way too much alcohol over the past week? If you are like me and can’t remember the last time you ate something green and full of vitamins, this is the perfect drink to detox your body and reboot your system. Don’t fall into a rut of unhealthy food, it is a vicious cycle. And who doesn’t want to start the new year with yummy, green power juice ;)
Last week I had the best sandwich in London. I was strolling with my boyfriend around Covent Garden where we saw the most appealing hot turkey sandwich at Benugo. We simply couldn’t resist an early Christmas dinner ;) It was spicy from the mustard and sweet from the cranberry sauce. In the middle, there was succulent turkey breast which was still warm on a bed of fresh salad and crispy bacon. I immediately fell in love :)
I cannot resist any dessert that has cream cheese in it. Therefore, these goodies were no exception. The Oreo cookie crust stays crunchy while the filling is rich and has the perfect combination of tartness from the sour cream and sweetness from the broken Oreos. Ever since I saw the recipe on Annie’s lovely blog, I couldn’t resist!
