I was at a French friend’s house, and they prepared those little « dishes ». From where I am coming from this doesn’t exist, like it’s not really a meal, it’s not really cooking but together it’s literally enough (I was clearly not hungry after that) and he still prepared a meal after that … I was passing out (impossible for me to sit I needed to lay after). So they gave me a lot of ideas, I will do them again (such as the cold quiches, with zucchini and chevre cheese and chorizo, if someone want it I can give the recipe, there is also kind of « ham roulé » and they rolled white cheese inside chicken ham, very addictive food)

so thinking back on that moment, do you have in your country this type of small dishes, if yes what type and could you share the recipe please?? Thanks all!!

I am eating a lot of jams and spreads (chocolate, peanut butter,..), since I am small and it’s still an habit in my everyday life! I even started to cook some jams myself, to reduce the quantity of sugar in my daily diet. Recently on a trip I discovered some very unusual jams, such as Rose jam, which is a jam literally made of roses leaves.. it’s excellent!! I know it’s a jam very popular in Middle Eastern countries, but in my country it is completely inexistent..

And it made me think that there’s probably all around the world some pretty interesting jams or spread that I am not even aware of!!

So please could you share what you would consider as an usual jam/spread but not for the others?? And if you have a recipe, please share it as well if possible!

I saw the post about the one pot dishes and realised that I am doing one pot salad all the time. Since I lost a lot of weight to be honest, I got the habit to prepare a lot of salad, it’s my to go dish! Every time I am lazy and I don’t really want to “cook”, I am chopping 3/4 vegetables, eggs, feta and that’s it! I am doing this multiple times in the week. But I am getting tired of the same salad all the time, and my mind cannot think of anything else..

What’s for you will be the go to salad? Healthy and tasty at the same time??
