Have you ever tried a vegetarian hot dog? What was the meat replaced with? I got so inspired of a recipe I found in Sweden where the "normal" hot dog was replaced with a carrot. Doesn't sound as your cup of tea? You have to try this! It's sooo delicious! And so simple! The carrots [...]
Salmon is a very common fish in Scandinavia. Here in Florida, I try to eat fish after season. The assortment here is much wider than in Scandinavia. When buying salmon, I always try to buy wild salmon. I can not prove how much better it is to buy wild vs farmed salmon, but all information [...]

This is not only typical Scandinavia, but something I believe we all need to think more of and do every week.

Quiche is so easy made and the variation is unlimited. If you prepare gluten free, vegetarian or with meat, it's up to you. Today I decided to make a quiche with spicy sausage, zucchini, tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella and the result is just SO good! What do you normally have in your quiche? Ingredients (1 [...]
I know this is not a Scandinavian dish, but let me tell you HOW big tacos, tortillas, or yes you name it, is in Scandinavia. In Sweden we call this dish "Friday cosiness". That means, each and every family with kids eat tacos on Friday (ok, not every family). In Norway, it's the same thing, [...]
