Honey, cinnamon and almonds sweet bread

This is an easy and rather fast in preparation comparing to other recipes, sweet bread. Very tasty indeed, where its texture is something between a classic Greek Tsoureki and a Brioche. Great for breakfast or a light snack for all hours. Enrich the flavour of it (admittedly the calories as well) by adding in some dark chocolate

Rich in veggies but not blunt in taste thanks to the thin bacon rashers and the olives and refreshing thanks to the creamy yoghurt sauce! An easy but very filling salad to enjoy any time and even as a light lunch

Home made crêpes with leeks and cheese filling

A simple but delicious recipe which can be served either as a first dish or as a light main meal. Children-friendly as well, it will make them eat one of the most tasty Winter-time vegetables, the leeks. Better to prepare your own  crêpes of course but good quality store-bought ones will definitely save you some time
