Beetroot upside down tart

Beetroot Sweet Potato Tartlets (Upside Down)

Tarte Tatin is a beloved French dessert that features caramelized apples covered with puff pastry and served upside down. What if instead, we made individual savory tarts?

No bake lasagna

Rustic No Bake lasagna

Lasagna is a popular dish but let’s be honest, it takes a bit of work and is not something you whip up on the spur of the moment. First, you have to cook the lasagna sheets, a few at a time and set them aside. Then prepare the tomato sauce, cream/cheese layer, shred the vegetables. […]

Uttapam

Savory Quinoa Pancakes (Uttapam)

Who doesn’t like pancakes? There are quite a few different versions depending where in the world you live.
