Avocado chocolate mousse
To be honest, when I first heard Avocado chocolate mousse, I was sceptical. I love, love, love chocolate, did I mention that I love chocolate? Anyway, I didn’t think there was an easy and healthy way around chocolate mousse. Turns out, I was wrong. This Avocado chocolate mousse is scrumptious. You can’t taste the avocado at all. This particular avocado that I used from Gram is even sweet. I have never heard of it before and I was very pleasantly surprised. It’s creamy, airy and has the perfect texture really. I didn’t want to add sugar to this, so I used dates as a sweetener, but really ripe bananas tend to also be…

Scandinavian Friday tacos
Scandinavian Friday tacos are almost like an institution in Sweden. We call it ”fredagsmys” which loosely translates to cosy Friday. Loads of families eat Friday tacos, followed by crips and watching a movie on the sofa. Which sounds kind of relaxing right? True, but when your kids are asking for the same Friday tacos, every Friday what’s a mama to do? You find creative ways to make them differently.

We don’t have to pack lunch boxes for our kids and most schools have decent food. But we all have the same problem after school, making dinner. The hour between getting home and until dinner is served is called the hell hour for a reason. Everyone, including myself, is…

Crisp carrot salad – to go with any dish
Crisp carrot salad you say? That goes well with most dished? Yes! Do you ever wish for a little side salad that’s quick to make and it’s not just your usual sliced vegetables? Then this salad is for you. It’s quick, it’s sliced, but with a twist! I don’t know about you, but I always have a bag of carrots in the fridge. And I’m a little sick to either just grate them or make them into carrots sticks. Wich, of course, is not bad, however, I needed something new. The twist in this salad is the spicy ginger and the apple cider vinegar that gives this crisp carrot salad a stingy and…
