Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips and Walnuts.

Herb Baked Eggs. I’m a huge fan of Ina Garten. I love her delicious and simple approach to French food. This is one of my favourites.

Mojito Sorbet. It was so cool and refreshing that I almost ate the whole batch in one sitting. Good thing sorbets are low in fat. Right?

Banana Blueberry Lemon Muffins. These muffins are moist, light and fresh tasting without being too sweet. The perfect muffin!

Rosemary Baguette. The rosemary made the baguette look even more beautiful when it was baked. It smelled, looked and tasted great.

Potato Gnocchi & Sausage. I love the blend of flavours and it is really simple and quick to prepare. A great weeknight dinner!

Calde Verde, a Portuguese creamy potato and kale soup. It literally means “Green Soup”. This soup is the country’s national dish.

Grilled Pineapple with Rum Syrup. You could serve these with vanilla or coconut ice cream but I prefer them all on their own.

Herbed Artisan Bread. Ah, bread. For me, it needs to be crusty on the outside and warm and chewy on the inside.

Herbed Goat Cheese, Tomato & Basil Salad with Basil-Thyme Vinaigrette. A fresh summer salad with Thyme and it’s BFF Basil.

Lemon Butterfly Cupcakes. The lemon flavour is subtle so it’s perfect for kids as well as adults. Everyone will love the butterfly design.

These herb and cheese cookies are made with fresh rosemary and Parmesan cheese. They go wonderfully with my balsamic syrup.
