I bring you a breakfast fit for the gods, sweet and super delish... And incredibly easy to prepare! At home they'll cheer you on while asking for another. It's a toast with salted caramel and banana, an already winning combination, which we enhance with a few more ingredients to make it as visually appealing as it is sweet and delicious in every bite.

If you like fish, you'll agree with me that one of the most delicious ways to prepare it is en papillote. All its flavor concentrates, since it cooks in its own juices, and the aroma when you open it is almost otherworldly. So, as you might guess, this cod loin en papillote on a bed of zucchini is very simple and quick to prepare, with a result as delicious as it is healthy.

Do you know the wonderful combination that cheese and jam make? Well, that effect — with the added touch of honey and the juiciness of roasted fruit — is what you get with this fantastic summer recipe. This Camembert baked in a cheese baker and served with apricots and rosemary will be the star of summer appetizers or as a starter for a dinner for two.

If there's an old-fashioned, quick and easy recipe that I loved as a child (and as an adult), it's definitely the one I'm bringing you today: lemon chicken en papillote stuffed with pâté.

You'll have seen that we've dressed the blog for summer, with simple, eye-catching, colorful recipes that are very, very delicious. I'm determined to bring you dishes that let you enjoy the good weather with your loved ones, and that make you lick your lips at how good they are. Recipes with an unbeatable balance between preparation time and enjoyment, because I don't want you to miss a single dip in the pool. Not you, and not me!

Today I bring a drink I love! A banana smoothie with almond milk—refreshing, delicious, and satisfying. It's a great way to start a day for the brave, a perfect dessert if you've eaten lightly, or a delicious snack.

Today's recipe is a tart that tastes and smells like summer, like picnic afternoons and dinners on the terrace. With very Mediterranean hints that come from feta cheese, oregano, and black olives. A tart topped in the pure "pie" style that I'm sure you'll love and that, besides making it exactly as I indicate, you can vary to your liking in many different ways, inspired by the suggestions you'll find at the end.

Panna cotta is a delicious dessert that, as it is prepared today, meets a key requirement for hot days: it doesn’t need an oven to make. Typical of the Italian region of Piedmont, its name is not misleading. Panna cotta literally means cooked cream and that is how it’s made: liquid cream is heated with sugar, a gelling agent is added so it sets, and once chilled it has a consistency similar to flan.

Good weather is already here! We want to be in the sun to recharge our energy, we crave walks along the beach by the sea, and we want to eat without complications — menus made up of light small plates and appetizers that take little time to prepare but have that cheerful, festive touch that summer brings.

Healthy, fun, tasty and very easy to prepare. These zucchini and feta fritters have everything to help you impress your guests or to treat yourself. They can be served as a starter or as a side dish, although nothing prevents them from being the stars of the aperitif.

The Cierva pastry is a typical preparation from the Murcia region, dated to the end of the 19th century (with legend included) on the coast of the Mar Menor. It is a somewhat peculiar recipe, as it combines in a single bite the savory flavor of the filling with the sweetness of the dough. It’s a quite striking contrast, especially for someone who didn't know it from childhood and comes across it so suddenly, since the sweet/salty contrasts are very pronounced.

Risotto alla bianca is the base recipe for this traditional dish of Italian cuisine. Many other preparations are built on it: asparagus, mushrooms, etc. All of them exquisite, yes, but the “bianco” is a singular dish; it is more than enough on its own to captivate anyone who tries it.
