There’s something truly magical about pink food. I can’t get enough of it. And neither can my daughter Julia. She is the reason I’ve come up with several creative and healthy ways of coloring food PINK. My love for beetroot has grown even stronger when I realized it is the perfect coloring agent. These lingonberry…

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SPAGHETTI SALAD WITH HEALTHY GREEN HERB PESTO
Butternut squash has become a new favorite vegetable of mine this autumn. I’ve found so many uses for this vibrant orange beauty – it is perfect in baked goods, roasted in the oven, blended together with some plant based cream for a creamy pasta sauce, or as fun spaghetti sautéed lightly in olive oil. That’s what happened…
BEETROOT AND BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIE BOWL WITH SUPERFOOD RAW CHOCOLATE
If you want to be really happy and energized the whole day without a jittery “I’ve had too much coffee” feeling, this superfood raw chocolate on top of my beetroot and blueberry smoothie bowl is perfect! I had a few (ok so maybe more than few) bites of this crunchy chocolate and I was in a…
LINGONBERRY COCONUT PORRIDGE WITH APPLE SAUCE – PINK BOOTS IN THE FOREST
My pink rubber boots are made for walking in the forest. That’s what I did one rainy afternoon, and I was happy to find beautiful red lingonberry gems. Although I couldn’t find a lot of perfectly ripe ones, I did gather enough for a special autumn treat: lingonberry coconut porridge with apple sauce.
THE PERFECT HEALTHY APPLE SAUCE – A NEW SEASON HAS BEGUN
Clear skies, crisp air, red, orange, yellow leaves, a dozen fresh apples. Today I’m making the perfect healthy apple sauce. It tastes of autumn and melt-in-your-mouth apple pies.
MATCHA NICE CREAM WITH REFRESHING GREEN GRAPES AND BASIL
Confession time: I have nine different green superfood powders in my pantry ready to be sprinkled in smoothies, overnight oats, porridges, puddings, savory sauces and dips. I use one or two of these super greens every day, simply because they are such a convenient way to boost up food to another nutritional level. I absolutely love green…
HEALTHY VEGETABLE BURGER – MY HAPPY GREEN MONSTER
This is the healthiest vegetable burger I’ve ever eaten in my life. It might look like a monster, but it surely is a happy one. And I was happy too when I began assembling this burger. I challenged myself to come up with the healthiest burger I could think of but with ingredients found only in our…
FUDGY EGGPLANT BROWNIES WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING
Gluten-free vegan fudgy eggplant brownies! I know it sounds crazy. But to me, it’s the good kind of crazy. Especially when crazy tastes fudgy and chocolatey, just like a brownie should. At first eggplant might seem like an unusual ingredient in sweet treats, but when the eggplant is cooked soft and pureed with warm dark…
BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH VEGAN CHEESE CRUMBLE AND CHICKPEAS – KID-FRIENDLY MEALS
I consider it a mission of mine nowadays to cook vegan food that not only looks pretty but also tastes amazing. I try new recipes once or twice a week, and sometimes I get a little obsessed. Like the day I wanted to make kid friendly brussels sprouts. The thing is – even I didn’t like…
CREAMY COCONUT BUTTER – THE PERFECT VEGAN SPREAD
What do vegans spread on their bread? This was one of the first questions buzzing in my head when I changed to a plant based way of eating. I was lucky enough to find creamy coconut butter from a health food store at the start of my plant filled journey, and after I had emptied the jar…
