Quinoa salad with soy-ginger-lime dressingBy ZjefThis recipe is inspired by Albert Heijn's quinoa salad: a favourite here when we're out and about getting hungry just when we find an AH supermarket nearby.

Creamy Jerusalem artichoke soupBy ZjefThis might actually be my favourite soup: deliciously creamy, packed with flavour and yet so easy to make. For an extra festive version: toasted sliced almonds bring in an extra flavour dimension that pairs really well with the slightly sweet and nutty taste of Jerusalem artichoke.

Overnight oatsBy ZjefNot a morning person? Then overnight oats might just save your day. Just mix together all the ingredients, let steep in the fridge overnight, and enjoy it the next morning!

Green pea guacamoleBy ZjefThis green pea guacamole is a lot more sustainable and cheaper than guacamole from avocados. In addition, it also contains almost five times as much protein and less fats. But most importantly: it's also just unbelievably delicious.

Rustic whole wheat breadBy ZjefFor a whole wheat bread, you really only need 3 or 4 ingredients: whole wheat flour, water, yeast and usually salt for the taste. With a few easy tricks you can make a delicious rustic whole wheat bread at home with a crispy crust and extra fiber.

Savoury lunch muffinsBy ZjefThese savoury chickpea flour muffins somewhat resemble a frittata or quiche. A quick lunch in a convenient 'on the go' shape! Its high protein content also makes it an ideal snack for athletes. And thanks to its shape, it's also a fun lunch for children.

Quiche with red beetroot & thymeBy ZjefYou don't need eggs to make a sturdy quiche. This quiche with beetroot and thyme is extra high in protein, iron and flavor. And yet it is very easy to make, with only a few basic ingredients.

Scrambled tofuBy ZjefScrambled tofu is the plantbased counterpart to scrambled eggs. Does it taste completely the same? No definitely not. This version is a bit more flavourful with lots of extra spices, tomatoes and spring onions.

Whole wheat banana bread with pear and spicesBy ZjefThis banana bread is probably the most baked recipe here at home. I have made it many times for friends and family, and the reactions are always positive. The winter spices and local pear chunks are a wonderful combination for this time of year.
