A Lithuanian classic. This dish is often made with meat, bacon and other unhealthy additives. I want to share how you can prepare a healthier, 100% plant-based version of this beloved comfort food. It requires only a few simple changes and the taste is perfect. I usually make it on weekends during the colder months or for special occasions when we crave comforting, warming food.

During the winter months, it's not exactly appealing to crave refreshing summer salads. However, vegetables, especially greens, are essential for our daily diet. I've prepared a recipe for balanced, nutritious, yet warm salads that you'll enjoy during the colder season.

I spent a long time thinking about what to call this dish - potato chips, potato wedges or maybe just fried potatoes? None of these names fully captured the essence of the dish. These fried potatoes are different from what we're used to; they resemble chips but have a much denser and more authentic flavor than store-bought potato chips. In any case, they make a fantastic dish for both parties and everyday meals alongside salads, Buddha bowls or soup. They’re loved by both kid

If a party is approaching and you're not sure what to make, this dish is definitely worth a try. You can prepare it as a snack or an appetizer any time of the year. It's suitable for both summer gatherings and colder months. At our gatherings, this dish is often one of the first to disappear, and there’s usually a line forming next to it. Both kids and adults love it. Bake some bread or naan on the side and I have no doubt you'll be crowned the best chef ever. Ingredients Che

Looking for a scrambled egg alternative? If so, I recommend trying this recipe. It resembles scrambled eggs in both texture and appearance, providing a satisfying meal, but from a nutritional standpoint, it’s much richer!
