Tomato Sauce and Basil Spaghetti / Шпагети со салца и босилек
(Serves 4) / (за 4 лица) I know this is a no-brainer, but we all have to be reminded once in a while, am I right? For instance, if I hadn’t come across a nice pic of a very seductive plate of pomodoro e basilico pasta I wouldn’t have been inspired to prepare this and indirectly…

Spaghetti Aglio e Olio / Шпагети со масло и лук
(Serves 4) / (за 4 лица) Elena, the co-writer on this blog was in Rome this past week, she just got back yesterday. This meal is inspired by the Eternal City, and it brought me back to the time when me and bf spent a whole month courchsurfing through whole of middle Italy. It was…
Beer Baked Potatoes / Компири печени со пиво
(Serves 4) / (за 4 лица) These were a big hit when I made them last summer at the IKAR Hut. Too bad I got burnt from the tray and ended up spilling half of them on the kitchen floor, but hey, I’ve already admitted I’m a disaster waiting to happen when it comes to cooking….
Toasted Shiitake / Тостирани шитаке
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) Shiitake, my fav mushroom! This is the first time I’m preparing it like this. If you’re out of time and you want to eat something healthy, yet tasty, I highly recommend this. Combine it with regular veggie salad, potato salad, pasta..the possibilities are endless, it just goes so well with…
Moussaka / Мусака
(Serves 4) / (за 4 лица) First of all I want to apologize for the messy picture. If only we hadn’t been so hungry and actually waited for the dish to set before we ate it, you could have gotten the real picture – inviting layers of yumminess! The literal meaning of the Arabic root of…
Spinach Risotto / Ризото со спанаќ
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) Another one of my favorites for this spring. I love combining spinach with carbs. It’s a new thing for me. I hated spinach when I was younger, but ever since I became a vegetarian (and later a vegan) – I let in all those stuff that I kept at…
Mashed Potatoes and Carrots / Пире од компири и моркови
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) Spring is at my fingertips. I can touch it, smell it, feel it – the season of light meals, light clothes, and light humor. This meal is something that I would eat for lunch on the sunny terrace of a nice restaurant, along with grilled mushrooms and loads of…
Parsley & Soy Burgers / Ќофтиња со магдонос и соја
(Yields 10 burgers) / (за 10 ќофтиња) The first time I declared I won’t eat meat anymore (some 10 + years ago) to my family, my mum started inventing soy recipes she can make for me :). Because someone told her that soy is the only vegan version of meat. So she invented these amazing…
Falafel / Фалафел
(Yields 20 burgers) / (за 20 ќофтиња) I’m a philologist, so it’s only natural that I waste c.a. half an hour trying to find the right spelling of the word ‘falafel’. Even though Oxford dics list it primarily as ‘felafel’ with ‘falafel’ as an alternate spelling, Arabs beg to differ. They don’t have the short…
The Amazing Almond Cheese / Чудесното сирење од бадеми
(Serves 4 ) but it depends how greedy you get, might be for just 1 🙂 / (за 4 лица) ама може да биде и само за еден, зависи колку ќе станете алчни 🙂 Ok, have you ever tried almond cheese?! I have tried my first bite of almond cheese this past week, and all…
Azuki Bean Burgers / Плескавици од азуки грав
(Serves 6) / (за 6 лица) I love burgers, you “waste” a few hours (worst-case scenario) making them and you’re set for days. This is something that my mom did to get me and my sister to eat beans. I know beans are good for you, right? The best. But when it comes to passing my…
Easy Creamy Risotto / Лесно кремаво рижото
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) It’s not a big secret that I can’t really cook a lot of things that require expert cooking skills, but some time ago I got frustrated that I can’t cook a risotto, and I love rice as an ingredient and I eat it really often. God bless Italians, coz…
Steamed Vegan Dumplings / Посни кнедли на пареа
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) I love Chinese food, when I come to think about it I like Asian in general. If only someone could omit the flesh from their menu they would definitely be my no. 1 cuisine (sigh). They have so much potential, but on the other hand they are known to…
Pizza Colorata / Разнобојна пица
(Serves 4) / (за 4 лица) The Italian name is a tribute to the original recipe for this pizza dough a friend of mine suggested I make. When you have absolutely no idea what to eat – by all means – eat pizza. Pizza is always a good choice and the varieties are endless. So every…
Easy Baked Carrots & Potatoes/ Лесни печени компири и моркови
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) Root vegetables. Some love them and some hate them, I adore them. They are so resistant to heat and you can easily bake them into anything. Actually vitamins in root vegetables get released with heat, otherwise you don’t get it all.
Homemade Potato Chips/ Домашен чипс од компири
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) I really try to eat healthy all the time, but sometimes there’s just too much temptation in this world. Am I right? 🙂 I mean, how could you possibly watch a movie or work all day on the laptop without snacks. Tasty chips and other stuff that comes in…
Twisted Veggie Pies / Вртени питички со зеленчук
(Serves 8) / (за 8 лица) Have I told you I’m in love with pastry? I would literally eat a new type of bagel each day if it didn’t plump me up so much. This is my mom’s recipe and even though she uses store bought phyllo dough sheets, it doesn’t seem like it at…
Spaghetti with Creamy Mushroom Sauce / Шпагети со крем-сос од печурки
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) It was a busy day today for me and bf. After last night’s party which was off the hook, by the way, we had a good night’s sleep and we got up all willing to work today. I was cleaning around the house and bf was studying for his…
Red Lentil Burgers / Ќофтиња од црвена леќа
(Serves 6) / (за 6 лица) It’s official – I’m sick! No fever, but nose is running like crazy. Not the best way to start a food post – I know 🙂 I’m not taking any drugs, I do not believe in drugs. There’s this tea we have here, the woman that owns the company…
Almond Pesto-Stuffed Mushrooms / Шампињони полнети со песто од бадеми
(Serves 6) / (за 6 лица) Well if this doesn’t make you go vegan, nothing will (JOKING! You must ALL go vegan before I finish my 365 days vegan recipe delivery for 2014!) This is the best thing you’ve tried since..well, forever. It is a GREAT show off for your little dinner parties and what’s…
Brussels Sprouts Mix / Бучкуруш со прокељ
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) I know I’ve already admitted in one of my previous posts that bf taught me how to cook. Well, this here was one of his culinary escapades. No idea for dinner? Here, just let me look at what’s left in the fridge. And a half an hour later –…
Messed Up Sarma :) / Растурена сарма
(Serves 6) / (за 6 лица) Let’s face it, sometimes despite your best intentions and your enormous wish to eat well and treat your body right, there just isn’t enough time, right? Some dishes may take ages to prepare and sometimes you simply have to find that way around them. This here is a variation of…

Breaded Eggplant / Панирани модри патлиџани
(Serves 2) / (за 2 лица) Not so long ago I was at a friend’s place and she made me these wonderfully amazing soy schnitzels. They were so irresistible I couldn’t stop stuffing my face, literally. I told my mom about them in superlatives, so, obviously, she couldn’t wait to get her hands on the…
