Style and Sushi

It’s been a hot minute since I last wrote a recipe blog post. And when is a better time to start then December? Lately I have really become a fan of baking again. I can’t seem to stop making cinnamon rolls and banana breads. The recipe I use to make the banana bread I usually bake is in Dutch. You…

A few months ago my friend introduced me to this gorgeous couscous salad. She invited me over to have a Riverdale catch up marathon because we both had been so busy with uni that we didn't really watch it. While we had our little Riverdale marathon she made me this glorious salad for lunch. Ever since summer has started, this has been such a yummy go-to lunch and dinner salad. It’s super easy and quick to make and practically takes a maximum of ten minutes to make! I honestly think I could eat this salad for lunch and dinner everyday, and I might even have had this salad for lunch and dinner a few times before.

Bowls seem to be around a lot nowadays. I personally love eating out of bowls, as it's just so easy to make! This salmon bowl is one of my favourite things to have for dinner. I first had it last year at a restaurant in Marbella. At first I found it very hard to come up with a recipe that was similar to the salmon bowl I had in Marbella last year. About a year later I feel like I finally have perfected this recipe and now feel ready to share my recipe on the blog.

This probably is one of those recipes that takes a little longer than the ones I normally put on the blog, as there’s just a few more steps incorporated into this recipe. Nevertheless I still love making this and it’s so worth it. This recipe contains multiple steps, the first step is marinating the salmon, once the salmon is marinated and in the oven, there are only a few steps left to do.

I recently had some courgettes left over because I decided to switch up my dinner plans. I wanted to use them up and started looking for tasty recipes that had courgette incorporated in it. I stumbled upon courgette fritters and soon stumbled upon a really tasty recipe of ‘courgette fritters’ or courgette pancakes, as some people would like to call them. I followed a recipe but started altering it in the process of cooking. So when these courgette fritters ended up being so yummy, I decided that I wanted to share this post with you on my blog!

I love drinking smoothies. It's one one those drinks I always like to drink, especially now that I have been ill the past couple of days. It’s such a good way to get some veg and vitamins inside of you and I love how filling smoothies are. I am quite a picky eater when it comes to vegetables, so I find that this is such a good way to fill my body with a few more vegetables than I would normally eat.

You always feel just so much better after having a smoothie, which is why I love drinking them alongside my meal in the morning. In today’s post I am going to share my two go-to green smoothies with you. When I was younger I was quite scared by the green colour as I felt like it would never be as tasty as a fruity smoothie. I now always go for a green smoothie as I have learnt to drink it throughout the years. Green smoothies definitely don’t have to taste of all the green, leavy bits that are in there.

Rice paper spring rolls are one of my favourite things to have for lunch or dinner. They're so easy to make and you can put lots of different things in it. I already posted a rice paper spring roll recipe twice on the blog before. But this time I used beef in the rice paper spring rolls and decided to go swap the pak choi for some romaine lettuce. Which basically takes the asian out of this, but it was all I had lying around in the fridge one day, and I actually like how it turned out, so I am sharing it this way instead.

Stuffed bell pepper are one of my favourite things to eat. They're perfect to eat for lunch, but also are filling enough to eat for dinner. I usually make mine with either couscous or bulgur. Both are very filling grains and go amazing with the bell pepper. In this post I will be sharing this easy recipe with you!

I love my smoothies, especially during the warmer seasons. One of my favourite things to have is a smoothie bowl. It's something that has been quite popular for a longer time now, but I feel like I only just found the perfect smoothie bowls to have. In this post I will share my two current favourite smoothie bowls with you. My two favourite smoothie bowls are a green smoothie bowl and a red(ish) smoothie bowl. Both of them contain lots of frozen fruit, because that's what makes it easy to eat in the bowl and just water, so it's really easy to make!

Poké bowls are my go to dinner whenever my parents and I don't know what to have. It's such an easy way of eating something healthy with its rice and lots of vegetables. I have absolutely no idea where the name poké bowl comes from. It constantly makes me giggle and reminds me of Pokémon whenever someone says it. Anyway, enough rambles, my version of a Poké bowl includes salmon, carrots, cucumber and avocado.

I love food and during the summer season I love eating salads. A few weeks ago my mum and I were a bit uninspired as to what kind of salad we would like to have for dinner that evening and I opened Pinterest. I scrolled through my feed and saw this mediterranean chicken salad. I quickly saved it and decided to make a salad that was inspired by this recipe.

In today's post I am sharing another recipe post with you. I absolutely love cooking breakfasts during the weekend when I have had a lazy morning. Late breakfast always has been a thing in my family. We love getting together and eating together, so we always try to sit down together at least once in the weekend. Last week it was my turn to think of something to eat during the weekend, and I decided that I wanted to cook something semi-healthy, but still really delicious.

Early mornings really aren't my thing. I hate waking up in the morning, and would love to stay in bed as long as possible. That usually ends up with me leaving the house a little too late, without having any breakfast. It's just the absolute worse to skip breakfast, but ever since I started uni it has been something that has reoccured on a daily basis. So today I'm sharing a breakfast recipe with you, that you can prepare on Sundays and can enjoy the rest of the week, without having to get out of bed early!

I love Christmas and all the things that come with Christmas. My favourite thing about Christmas is probably getting to spend lots and lots of time with your family and other loved ones. We always have this tradition where my brother and his girlfriend come to our house on Christmas Eve and we have the biggest feast of all time. Mostly including alcoholic drinks, however I am not really a big alcohol lover, so what I like to do is make myself some non-alcoholic drinks and today I am sharing my favourites with you!

I wanted to post lots of my Christmas recipe posts in the early months of December, but I have been so busy with uni that I haven't really had time yet to am so late with all of the Christmas posts this year. So now that I have a bit more time on my hands just before the Christmas holiday, I will be sharing my first Christmas recipe! Gingerbread man cookies! So cute and perfect to have during the Christmas season!

If there's one thing I am passionate about, it's about food. I like all types of food. Healthy food. Not so healthy food. Just food in general. Last year I had this really bad habit at uni of always buying something in our uni cafeteria during lunch hours. Besides the fact that I was always broke halfway through the month, the things that I used to have, weren't really that healthy.

So when the school year started again in September, I decided that from now on, I wanted to start bringing my own lunch to uni, to save money, but also try and focus a little bit more on what I put inside of my body. I asked on Twitter if you were interested in seeing what I bring to lunch with me, and a few of you liked that tweet, so I just assumed that this post would be helpful to you too and not just to me.

I love drinking water and I pretty much only drink water, aside from the occasional juice or iced tea. But whenever it's summer, I just can't bring myself to drinking normal water in the huge amount that I should drink it in, so I usually end up putting some flavour into my water, so today's post is dedicated to all the yummy things that I've been putting into my water to make it more tasty!
