Toast is a typical late lunch in our house: double toasted ryebread with a bit of leftover sauteed kale, hummus, grated beetroot tossed in a tsp of apple cider vinegar, and seeds on top. Grains, seeds, vegetables.

Waffles! Savoury or sweet. Always a treat.
Waffle Sundays happen at least once a month at Maggi’s and Ieva’s place. And anytime we have guests staying over or if someone joins for brunch. It is easy, festive and no big preparations needed. It’s also a perfect way to use leftovers and random items from the pantry (like most of the stuff we…
Butternut squash-orange porridge
I’ve recently started studying the Ayurvedic principles and it makes me happy to see that all that intuition I’ve had in me when cooking can be understood, more clearly defined and adjusted through diving into this ancient philosophy. It’s time for kitchen sadhana: bringing our spiritual practice into the kitchen. Today, with a warming butternut squash…
Wicked and Wonderful Wraps
Wraps are brilliant. It’s one of our go-to food when we want something fast, easy and delicious. And as an added bonus it’s the kind of meal that can help clear out your fridge from left-overs or and ingredients that need to get used ASAP. What’s not to like! The three main things you need…
Gooey melted mozzarella
Pizza and cheese, they just go together. When we crave pizza, it is often because of that layer of gooey cheese on top that can be so satisfying. But you don’t need to give up the gooey fatty salty pizza experience if you’re vegan.

My dear Nagymama always made this divine dish: “Potatoes with parsley”. Of course it was on the side, next to the perfectly evenly battered, immaculately fried chicken breasts. I don’t miss chicken at all, but the crunch of that breadcrumb coating was something special. Never could anyone in the family reproduce that, but maybe that’s…
Lunch in busy times: Wrap it up
These days, weeks and months have been really busy for me, and it seems – for everyone around me. This wrap is an example of what I eat when I don’t have time to cook. Fold the tortilla wrap in 4, this way it fits in the toaster, then refold it so the soft parts…
Breakfast in wintertime
Picture of a very typical breakfast: rye bread, peanut butter with jam, avocadoes, chickpeas hummus, banana, tomatoes, olives, whatever is at home. Missing some green leaves on this one especially for the crunch but you can’t always have it all. This basic hummus was made by Fredrik with a can of chickpeas drained (the liquid…
Tahini: my vegan creme fraiche
I was probably the biggest creme fraiche, or rather ‘sour cream’ fan I’ve ever met. Coming from Hungary, I have encountered a good number of applicants for that post, and still, I believe that I liked to eat creme fraiche for more types of things and in bigger quantity than anyone else: with potatoes, in…
