ham, zucchini, ricotta and basilicum wraps

3rd April 2012 | Post by Capucine

This recipe comes from a diet cookbook. They don’t have all wrong! Their recipes are fresh, light and a good alternative to salads during summer. They are perfect when it is geting warm outside and we don’t want to feel heavy after lunch.

Why not tofu?

28th March 2012 | Post by Capucine

Just like many Western people, I had for a long time some prejudices about tofu. At that time, I had never even seen some. I only had heard about the lack of taste of this soja paste

Hot and cold bento

10th March 2012 | Post by Capucine

Hot and cold food in the same bento box? It may be! Forget about separator or cold meal for a few minutes. The solution is to use disposable food boxes. A small one for  a dis hand the biger one for the other!

 

In the disposable food boxes: bulgur with tomato and basilicum and almost hard-boiled egg with tuna quenelle.
