Savoury Greek Cheesecake

Upgrade your lunch break at work.

I really love when people find time to comment on our blog and develop our recipes even further. This was the case of our very first blog post: the cheesecake recipe. Alexandra, my dear biotec-friend, made a savoury version of it and posted it on the blog. After over two years, I’ve decided to give it a try and modified it to my needs and taste. It was a blast and I want to share it with you!

Mediterranean Salad And Oat Meatballs

My summer meal prep staple.

If you still are not convinced how easy it is to prepare delicious veggies in batch and how to apply Stefan’s wonderful veggie guide, I have taken the theory to practice and created my own Ottolenghi-style Mediterranean Salad.

My mum used to make so called “insalata di pasta” (=pasta salad) in Milan, where the kitchen periodically hit over 38°C starting with the mid of June. It is a cold version of a pasta with mainly cold ingredients for the sauce, like cherry tomatoes, olives, roasted aubergine in the jar, mozzarella and so on. No need to say that the original version had nearly zero gram protein, besides the protein content of the pasta, and some spare cheese. That’s why we think the idea by Jamie Oliver of adding tuna to the pasta is genious and we did our own version.
