28.11.2016 / By Sonia Raga / Published in SWEET TREATS

  Do you know someone who doesn´t like jam? I don´t. I mean, everybody loves peanut butter-jam sandwiches and pancakes topped with jam and toast with jam… almost anything slathered with jam simply tastes amazingly delicious.

I´ve tried to make a low-fat version of such thick pancakes a few times and […]

  Fries as a main dish? This lifestyle couldn´t get any better. Today I want to show you how to make delicious, crispy and oil-free French fries. There are plenty of oil-free, baked potatoes recipes but somehow I was not happy with the texture (kind of rubbery and not crispy enough). One lazy day, I […]
