green and golden eggs



While i try to eat less vegetables, I still try to get a healthy diet that has enough protein. Avocado is a great way to supplement it. I used to not like it, but these days I just love the texture and taste. I made an avocado goat cheese mixture and put it on top of my eggs and toast.

the mixture is made with
  • 1 ripe avocado (diced and scooped out)
  • 1 tbs of soft goats cheese
  • 1 tsp of fresh thyme
  • juice of one lime
  • 1 tsp of hot sauce (if you want it a bit spicy)
top scoop this on top of some eggs and enjoy.

spicy tomato pasta




one of my favourite things to eat is pasta. the different sauces, the cheeses can make a simple thing so complex. this recipe, like most of my others is not complex. super simple good ingredients are needed to make this taste amazing, some make sure to get some proper tomatoes.

start off by
  • heating up 2 tsp of olive oil in saucepan at med-high heat
  • fry up a small onion (diced up)
  • add 1 clove garlic (smashed and sliced)
  • stir for a couple minutes
  • add 3 tomatoes chopped up
  • stir in 1-2 tsp of hot sauce (depending on how hot you want it)
  • add 1 tsp of maple syrup
  • add large pinch of salt and pepper
  • let the sauce cook for 10ish minutes so it cooks down
  • add some cooked pasta to sauce so the sauce coats the pasta properly
