Spiced Nuts
I like a bit of sweetness with my spice, but not too much, and this recipe, inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi's, gets just the right balance. You can add more honey, or a sprinkle of sugar for extra crunch if you prefer a sweeter result. This is so much more economical than buying spiced nuts, and way nicer too!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 160C/Gas 3 and line a large baking sheet with baking parchment. Weigh the nuts into a bowl, and add all the other ingredients except the cayenne pepper. Mix really well.
- 2
Spread the nuts in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 12 minutes Every few minutes take the baking tray out and pull the paper to the middle to pile up the nuts, then spread out again. This will help roast the nuts evenly.
- 3
Check the nuts are crunchy, you need to cool first, then take out of the oven and sprinkle with a little cayenne if you want a hot finish, together with any more salt if needed.

As the nuts cool, keep piling them up so that smaller nuts and seeds clump together a bit. Make sure the nuts are totally cold before you store in an airtight jar.

Just an old recipe a friend gave me many years ago found it on a piece of paper in an old book. I forgot I even had it.At Woodstock, they wasn't prepared for so many people, everything sold out of food water. No one had hardly any food with them, so someone started serving Granola there.My youngest daughter called it Happy Hippie Trippy Treat. #mycookbook

Stuffed zucchini (vegetarian) Stuffed zucchini (vegetarian)
I love pizzas so I wanted to make a healthy version. I am not a zucchini fan at all, actually this is the first time I use them and I like the result😅 but it is delicious!!!! I used texturized soy instead of meat to try and it was so delicious!!! Really try!!! You can also make it vegan if you don’t put the cheese :)I will put the ingredients per person and you can multiply for the number of people you are going to eat :)I am adding at the end of the recipe all the nutrient information. Also, a picture of the texturized soy that I found in a supermarket ( in my country it is a lot easier to find!) because the quality of the nutrients it has is great and I really recommend it.

#reststyle #goldenapronPoached Pear, the classic French dessert is such a delightfully flavorful, very elegant and impressive. It has a great balance of sweet, spice and fruity flavors, and the deep red colour turns this into a beautiful centerpiece dessert too. I have slightly modified my recipe so that it can be served to kids as well.Poached Pears make a fantastic dinner party dessert and can be prepared in advance. Pears have such a mild flavour that you need to use spice in a considered way to complement their fabulous taste.

Savory shredded carrots Savory shredded carrots
The tendency today is toward highly seasoned, bold flavors. This is more subtle. If you want to kick it up a notch, add more cumin and garlic, but if you do, also increase the maple syrup to balance the sweetness of the carrots with the spices
