Why not? – Spaghetti squash with artichoke pesto

8
Perchè no? – Zucca spaghetti con pesto ai carciofini Crushing these gorgeous baby artichokes into a pesto broke my heart. I have always wanted to make artichoke pesto but never really managed to turn the artichokes into a paste. They’re so cute and delicious as hearts that really putting them [...]

Pour les jours paresseux – Quinoa, courgettes grillées, pois chiches en verrine en couches de chèvre et pesto Yes, this is definitely a dish for one of those lazy days, not lazy “like sitting on the sofa”, but lazy “like not feeling to cook” but with a desire to eat something good.

Get a pillow and take a nap – Pillows with fava beans, asparagus and goat cheese

21
Prend un oreiller et fais une sieste – Coussins de filo aux fèves, asperges et chèvre I could definitely sleep on top of those stuffed pillows, they’re warm and smell so good.
