  • Baked Shell Pasta with vegetables. Such a lovely idea for a family get together or for Easter Sunday Lunch 😉 Few weeks ago I found this giant shell shaped pasta at the store and I couldn’t wait to prepare something special with it 😬 The bakes pasta came out sooo good and so full of flavors. If you cannot find the giant pasta, no worries, use a regular shape pasta 😉 INGREDIENTS: 3 zucchini 1 carrot 1 head of broccoli 1 cup fresh tomatoes 5/6 basil leaves 2 cloves garlic 1/2 cup mozzarella 4 Tbsp olive oil Pinch salt 1/2 onion 4 Tbsp tomato sauce Procedure: In a pan add the minced garlic, minced onion and olive oil. Sauté for 2 min. Add the carrots chopped in small pieces and cook for 4”. Add the broccoli and the zucchini chopped in small pieces too and cook for 2 min. Add the tomatoes chopped and the tomato sauce. Add 1/4 cup warm water. Adjust with salt. Cook covered at low heat for 8/10min. Add the fresh basil at the end. Cook the pasta and drain 4min before the suggested time. Drizzle some olive oil in a baking pan. Fill each pasta shell with one tablespoon of vegetable mix and place them one next to the other in the baking pan. Add the mozzarella on top. Optional. Add few tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese on top. Bake in preheated oven to 400F for 20min. For a golden crust, move to brook/grill mode for the last 5 minutes. Enjoy!! #bakedpasta #pasta #vegetablepasta #familyfood #familyrecipes #kidsfood #healthyrecipes #healthypasta

  • Spinach and Mushrooms Rice Fusilli Pasta. I really like to create recipes from scratch using what's available (and needs to be used!) in the fridge. It's like being given a white canvas and a set of colors. That's how this pasta dish was morn last night after a busy afternoon at the park :-) I really appreciated the combo of flavors. I was impressed by the rice pasta (from @traderjoes ): it didn't get mushy once cooked, I simply drained it 3 minutes prior the suggested cooking time. Kids'feedback: they liked it, finished everything, spinach included, with the exception of mushrooms...but I already knew it. Still, I will not give up and I will keep exposing them to mushrooms up until they will appreciate them :-) It's really a matter of time and patience. And...that's the recipe!! INGREDIENTS: 1 lb. rice fusilli pasta (or any kind of short pasta you like) 500gr. spinach 1 onion 2 cups cremini mushrooms 2 cloves garlic 4 Tbsp Extra Virgin olive oil + 3 Tbsp at the end 2 Tbsp almond meal 1 handful crumbled feta cheese PROCEDURE: In a pan add the minced garlic + minced onion + 4 Tbsp oil. Heat to medium and sauté for 4 minutes. Chop the spinach. Add the mushrooms to the pan. Saute' for 2 minutes. Add the spinach and cook for 3 minutes. Season with salt. Meanwhile cook the pasta and drain it. Combine all the ingredients in the pan. Add the almond meal and the feta cheese and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix and enjoy!!! #pasta #ricepasta #pastawithspinach #pastawithmushrooms #spinachpasta #eatyourveggies #ironboostingrecipe #kidsfood #familymeal #healthyrecipe #healthypasta #glutenfree #glutenfreepasta #glutenfreerecipe
  • Stunning gorgeous 😍😍 It will be roasted with a drizzle of balsamic . 😋 #farmersmarket #organicfood
  • Guess what I found at the market?? 😍😍 Amaranth leaves!!! You can cook them like spinach, sautéed with some olive oil, garlic and salt. Stay tuned for the recipe on my stories 😉😋 #newfind #amaranth #farmersmarket #eatyourgreens #organicfood
  • When the ingredients are superb, you really don’t need to do anything else 😉 Light lunch with tomato and avocado salad dressed with extra virgin olive oil (the good one!), garlic and a pinch of salt on a freshly baked focaccia bread. 😋 For the kids I cut the bread in small bite size pieces and placed the tomatoes on top so that the juices could soak the focaccia making it softer and sooo yummy!! #lunch #healthylunch #lunchideas #kidsfood #toddlerfood #organicfood
  • #easterbreakfast ideas 😉 You can create your bunnies with waffles or pancakes or toast bread, simply have fun!! Slide through to guess which plate is MY breakfast 🤣🤣🤣 Have a gorgeous weekend!!! #easterfood #kidsfood #kidsbreakfast #toddlerfood #toddlerbreakfast #organicfood #breakfast #healthybreakfast
  • Friday lunchbox! Baked Salmon with Dijon honey lemon glaze (from last night) + steamed broccoli + apples and blueberries + 70% dark chocolate + multigrain Persian bread (my latest addiction 😉) Next week we are enjoying Spring Break so I will have time to deep clean the lunch bag (the poor bag is really abused by my kids 🤣😜). More homemade meals and on-the-go snacks to share!! #lunchboxideas #schoollunch #kidslunchbox #toddlerlunchbox #kidsfood #healthylunchbox
  • Fried rice with sliced pork and green onions + cucumbers + pear + mommy&me strawberries. I learned that pears are subject to oxidation more than apples. They really turn brown in one hour. So..I slice them the night before and brush every side with few drops of lemon juice, than put the slices back together. The lemon taste will not affect the flavor as the pears are super sweet right now and the color will not get brown as you can see from the pic. Those pears have been sliced last nigh 😉 #schoollunch #lunchbox #kidslunchbox #lunchboxideas #toddlerlunchbox #kidsfood #healthylunchbox
  • Chicken and Veggie Baked Samosas (I filmed the recipe yesterday, stay tuned for the video 😉) + roasted asparagus + Cara Cara oranges + pistachios + choco biscotti with almonds. #lunchboxideas #schoollunch #lunchbox #kidslunchbox #toddlerlunchbox #healthylunchbox #kidsfood
