Chunky Guacamole & Pita Chips

I hear spring has arrived even if it doesn’t feel like it in Paris 🙁
Spring is a cool season because it’s a period when you can start fresh, when new ideas are born, when flowers blossom and when people come out of their winter caves with joy and enthusiasm ! And of course it’s the season where the good weather is back (supposedly) and you can put your winter coat in the closet for next year. Can you feel the mood ? 🙂 Arf, we’ll get there…

Anyway, I’m feeling in the mood to organize some dinners and get-togethers, and hopefully soon some picnics in the park. I am sooo ready for this summer’s festivities and vacation and want to cook it out!

Here’s a recipe for some refreshing, chunky and tangy Guacamole with homemade Pita Chips…

Sweet Potato & Salmon Lasagna

What I love about cooking the most is the social gathering that it creates, and how you can get cooking ideas from anyone. Sometimes those are the best recipes and they can be a great source of inspiration.

Avocado Poke Bowl

I just got back from a 3-day weekend in Agadir, Morroco and I feel the need to purify my body from gluten and fatty foods! eek !!
So here it goes with the famous Poke Bowl that I’ve been dying to try for months now. This recipe has been trendy for over a year now in the US and Japan. The Poke Bowl comes from Hawaii and is similar to the Japanese dish Chirashi. It can be made with different ingredients such as mango, cashew or macadamia nuts.

The “real” recipe calls for tuna, avocado, seaweed, green onions, ginger and rice.
All these ingredients really are great and full of good calories. In some countries rice is almost mandatory in every meal and is synonym to eating well. But you can learn alot about different types…
