There’s nothing like chicken breasts with a thick sauce that renders the meat so tender and juicy. We love these balsamic chicken breasts made with onions and mushrooms, but I thought it was time to give my favorite go-to chicken recipe an update. I love creamy mushroom

One of the best things about living in Switzerland is the proximity to all sorts of incredible destinations — from big cities like Paris and Milan to mountain resorts and lakes. Being so close to the Swiss Alps gives us the opportunity to spend several weekends

Hello my dears! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. It has been cold and snowy here in Switzerland, making me want to stay in more than usual — the perfect opportunity to work on more delicious recipes for you! With my birthday coming up, Jon surprised me with one of the best gifts ever for a food blogger: a new camera!

There are a zillion ways to make a good carrot soup, but this one is by far my favorite. I still love my easy carrot parsley soup, but some nights I just crave something more exotic; especially when the weather starts getting really cold (like right now!).

Running has really grown on me. I always hated it, but ever since I started running in April, I have fallen in love with the sport. It’s so easy to keep up with — all you need is the right pair of sneakers and off you

If there’s one thing I could have for lunch/dinner/anytime every day, it’s got to be this roasted vegetable salad. It’s unlike any other salad I’ve ever had — the vegetables are soft and crispy on the edges, so full of flavor and cooked to perfection.
