Almond Flour Shortbread Cookies

Today Lion and I took advantage of nap time to try a new recipe we found online. Our quest for a new recipe came after going through the pantry and realizing we have a very large bag of almond flour we need to use up. A quick google search of “almond flour cookies” gave us…

Seitan 2 ways

I have recently (in the last year or so) discovered seitan whilst going through a divine cookbook Mostly Plants by the Pollan family. After reading the cookbook cover to cover I diligently placed markers into all the recipes I wanted to try first! This particular recipe was number one on my list – and let…

Lion’s Cooking Show

If we are being honest we already have a version of this recipe on the blog – but Lion really wanted me to make a video of him making these muffins. What can I say – as long as the kitchen is in tolerable order I’m generally happy to make a mess of it cooking…

This is why (since my husband introduced me to the amazingness that is Nepalese & Punjabi cooking), I have been working on learning to make these dishes at home. After all – while most of us love…
