The Best Marinara Pasta Sauce

Ahh, guys, this sauce is amazing!

Seriously… I don’t think I’ll ever return to supermarket pasta sauce. I just can’t imagine how I ever thought ready made pasta sauce was okay. Ah, well wisdom comes with age, right?!

This sauce is the perfect combination between quick-and-easy and made-from-scratch, and making this sauce will truly make you feel like a domestic goddess, or at least I did. Basically all ingredients for this sauce can be picked from your own veggie garden – or bought at the farmers market if you’re not that lucky.

Simple Zucchini Soup

If you are like me, and are blessed with enormous numbers of zucchinis every summer, this is a great recipe to have in your repertoire to use up that huge summer yield. Zucchinis are a perfect example of summer vegetables, with a harvest peak in July. As they tend to grow very vast, you’ll probably harvest them all around the same time, meaning that you will have a lot of zucchinis at the same time. From experience I’ve learned that they don’t really tend to freeze well, it is best to use them as soon as possible, and freeze the final product, such as this wonderful soup.

Grilled Wild Peach and Lime-Ginger Portobello Burgers

Aahh, summer has now begun fo’ real here in the Netherlands. Temperatures of around 30 degrees, lots of sun and lots of chilling. I love it! Of course BBQ’ing is an integral part of summer too, and with my lazy summery self in mind I came up with these delicious and extremely simple veggie burgers.

Sweet Potato and Lemon Baked Falafel

Oh my god. Guys, this really might just be the best falafel I’ve ever had. So so so delicious and – important for those of you who want to stay on track with their lifestyle/diet – really healthy too! As these are baked instead of fried, you will get a lot less fat than the normal ones, and besides the oil from the sesame seeds this recipe is fat free yay. I’ve never imagined myself looking for fat free recipes, but recently I’ve started using My Fitness Pal, and I’ve realized how incredibly kcal dense oil actually is. Do any of you use it too? Anyway, if you want these to taste more like the original ones, you can of course bake them with a little olive or coconut oil or just fry them if that is more your thing. Just know that even without all the grease these are still really really delicious :)

Recipes

Simple Tomato Soup

I love making big batches of food to eat throughout the week for lunch and/or dinner and this delicious soup is perfect for just that. Who else loves food prepping? Personally, I think it is a great solution to avoid having to cook each and every day, especially if you don’t have the time for that.

These burgers guys… so delicious! Now, I know the name isn’t really inspirational – like at all – but I assure you these are da bomb. And no, I’m not gonna rename them to bomb burgers haha, although it sounds kind of cool. So, if you have a cool name, let me know!! I’ll give you credit of course ;)

Burrito Wraps with Veggies and a Lime-Cilantro Hummus

After all those Cinco de Mayo Mexican festivities a little while back, I kind of became obsessed with Mexican food. I’ve always loved guacamole (for obvious reasons) and maize and tomato and rice and all those classic Mexican (or at least in my non-Mexican eyes classic) ingredients. The reason this post comes this late though is something many of you will probably also ~~have problems~~ are familiar with: finals week, deadlines, essays, revisions, etc.
