Traditional tortilla with bread and tomato
Listen closely, because I'm not bringing you a tortilla with pan con tomate, but I'm bringing the traditional recipe for a pan con tomate tortilla. I love it!
This pan con tomate tortilla is a traditional Catalan recipe, but nowadays it is little known and you will rarely find it.

Golden Cod
Portuguese cuisine boasts so many cod recipes that we could make a different one every day of the year without repeating. This is one of the most popular, both inside and outside the neighboring country. At home it’s much loved, even by those who aren’t big fans of fish, which is a welcome thing. Likewise, it’s a very simple dish to prepare and doesn’t require unusual ingredients or odd gadgets.
Turkey and Zucchini Burgers
These turkey and zucchini burgers are healthier than what we're used to in a burger. The recipe is from the famous chef Ottolenghi and follows his line of simple combinations with wonderful spices, in this case with cumin and cayenne, two spices that make a phenomenal combo.
How to marinate tofu
Tofu is the most commonly used food to replace meat. So if you’ve decided to reduce animal protein in your diet, a good option is to use this ingredient. Although when you try it for the first time, you’ll probably find it a bit bland… But I have the solution! If we marinate tofu, its flavor changes radically and we can use it in many dishes while adding an extra boost of taste.
Black rice
Who doesn’t love a good rice dish as the finishing touch to a morning at the pool or the beach! This black rice recipe is one of my favorite takes on what we colloquially call "paella", whatever it turns out to be.
Polenta tart with zucchini and feta
In summer we don't feel like cooking as much or spending hours in front of the stove, but we can't live on salads alone. Savory tarts are a good solution to serve at a summer dinner. It's true that we tend to turn to wheat flours as the base for our tarts, but there are actually other good, healthy options a little different from the usual.
