Vegan Monday: Overnight Oats With Toasted Oats And Toasted Coconut
I am loving the easy breakfast with overnight oats. To be honest, I always prefer a simple cheese and tomato breakfast to anything else – since my childhood – but overnight oats is a delicious and quite filling alternative to that. And this time, I toasted the oats for a change. Verdict: that’s what I will always do from now on!
Coconut And Oat Cookies – They Will Make You Smile
So, yesterday I wasn’t feeling well. The world going crazy and all has already been affecting my personal mood.

I checked whatever I had at home and made these easy peasy cookies.
Vanilla And Black Pepper Infused Canola Oil – And Vanilla / Honey Vinaigrette
A few months ago I was watching a BBC documentary about most famous spices in the world. In the third episode, while I was watching vanilla cultivation, I had an idea: how does vanilla taste in savoury dishes? I mean, I love, many people love using vanilla in delicious cakes, cookies, desserts, but what about the other side of the coin? After a bit of research, I got inspired by a chef and started to work on this olive oil infusion.
A Cake With A Cherry On Top – Lots Of Cherries Actually
Some days when you are home and you suddenly crave for a cake, you just whisk a few ingredients at hand and in less than hour, you have a cake. This is one of those cakes, but there is just a small and simple twist in this basic vanilla cake recipe which combines sweet and sour: cherries! And if you don’t have cherries hanging around or in your local grocery store 2 minutes from your apartment, then you can replace it with blueberries, raspberries, any berries you like really.
