This is not Tschirky’s original Waldorf salad. Instead, we played a little with the ‘classical’ recipe. We kept the walnuts, apples, and celery, but we substituted grapes with pineapple and tossed cognac-soaked dried fruits into the mix. No mayonnaise! And no bed of lettuce or other leafy greens, this time. Try it. It’s good!
‘Health in a glass’, that’s how this (and every smoothie out there, for that matter) should be named. That’s what they are, basically. This one is cucumber, celery, pears, and kiwi fruits blended together. Would you share it?
Who’s in for a dessert? One that is both creamy and flaky. We achieve this by using phyllo pastry sheets as a base and then, filling them with a soft honey-sweetened rum-flavored ricotta mixture. Topping everything with raw figs and coconut flakes will just make things way better.
Have you ever tried halva? Actually, there are various types of halva and they are all delicious! You can easily make a simple sunflower seed halva yourself! It doesn’t require much in the way of skill. It’s all about dry-roasting sunflower seeds, mixing them with powdered sugar and butter, flavoring them with vanilla extract, and then forgetting them in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. The actual time spent in the kitchen: about 15 minutes.
You may have heard about the French dish terrine. Well, this one has nothing to do with that savory dish. Instead, it honors the citrus fruits by bringing orange, grapefruit, tangerine, and lemon together inside a loaf pan. We cover them with a star anise-flavored sweet mixture of white wine and peach champagne, then „forget” about it in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
Just look at these layered melon mini cakes. In less than 30 minutes you’ll be in for a refreshing, juicy and healthy dessert. Stack in an alternate manner watermelon and cantaloupe slices and fill each layer with lemon-flavored whipped cream. Is this a tasty way to cool your summer days, or what?
This dish is specific not only to Mexico but to the entire Pacific coast of Latin America! This healthy and nutritious recipe was and still is quite popular. No wonder, thanks to the fish fillets and their flavor, brought out by the acidic and refreshing hints of grapefruit and lemon, which are doing the heavy lifting. Please eat this fresh!
Sometimes warm and healthy sweet food is all you need to get past the chilly weather. Let’s stuff two apples with cinnamon and vanilla-flavored oatmeal mixture and bake them. We didn’t make ours too sweet, but you can change this by simply adding more honey.
Candies are such a classic dessert; however, you should always be ready for a surprise when it comes to them. These crunchy chocolatey sweet bites are lemony-flavored little bombs. The sour cherry hidden inside each one of them complements the chocolate to perfection.
Add grated apple into some pancake batter and you’re in for a treat. This way, the lemon and rum-flavored mini pancakes can be easily gobbled up without any syrup on them. Of course, you can also serve them with the syrup of your choice or, better yet, with honey!
How about spreading some pineapple jam and butter on your toast, this morning? It pairs well with your tea, or what have you. You only need 1 hour, a saucepan, and 3 ingredients. You can add more lemon juice if you feel like it.
This take on truffles is gluten-free vegan stuff for your sweet tooth. Make yours vegan too, with healthy black beans, cocoa powder, oat flour, and coconut butter. Sweeten them with maple syrup. Coat them in more cocoa powder and get the party started.
