The salted cakes are a dish that is used a lot in Italy, there are all kinds of varieties and they carry the most varied ingredients. The cake that I propose today is a vegan and gluten-free cake, based on zucchini, millet, and buckwheat, perfect for eating alone accompanied by a good salad or open in half and stuffed like a sandwich. It is also an original way of eating vegetables, which children will also like.

The salted cakes are a very old dish, the old Romans used to prepare them with very bitter vegetables to eat alone or with the less noble cuts of meat. In the middle ages, they reappeared at banquets and became increasingly elaborate and sophisticated until they became true sculptures made of dough. Clearly, they were very different from those we can see today, the dough served to contain the filling and was not normally eaten; The existing salted pies did not appear until the invention of the molds.

Today we are going to talk a little about curry. As we all know curry is a very aromatic yellow spice used in many Asian preparations; but not only that. In India, a curry is any spiced stew with sauce. It can be vegetables, meat or fish. This dish, in all its variants, is usually accompanied by boiled rice or bread, for example, the Naan.

It is a delicious dish and usually a little spicy since it is made with the famous curry paste. There are different colors: yellow, red or green, depending on the ingredients used. For this recipe, I used the green curry paste, but pay attention that is quite spicy. I have also used oat milk that can be made with this recipe. The curry version that I propose today is very easy and quick to prepare. It is a Vegan Eggplant Curry that I am sure you will love.

I await your opinions and do not forget to tell me on my Facebook page what recipes you would like me to prepare;)

Tabbouleh (or tabulé) is a recipe of Lebanese and Syrian origin, very fresh and light, for this reason is the perfect food for the summer. It is a cold salad based on Bulgur and fresh vegetables; To adapt it to the FMD, I decided to change the Bulgur by whole spelt cous cous and the result is great.

Personally, I am very fan of this recipe, because apart from being delicious is also very quick to prepare. It is a perfect first course for Phase 1.

The gazpacho is a light and fresh dish typical of Spain. It is a cream of vegetables very adapted for the summer.

Like many traditional recipes, there are many different versions of gazpacho, some more traditional and some more creative. For example, last year, I create a recipe for gazpacho with cherries that took the Gazpacho Experimental prize in the contest of gazpachos in La Principal.

Today I propose a simpler version with a more traditional flavor, accompanied by pearls of balsamic vinegar and mint leaves.

Leave me your opinion in the comments 😉

Labor Day is a commemorative celebration celebrated in many countries of the world to remember the struggle of the labor movement and the reduction of the working day to 8 hours. Although it is not properly a holiday like Christmas or Easter, it does not lack traditions; In Rome, for example, Labor Day is often celebrated, with a trip out of town. The typical thing is to meet with a good group of friends, leave the city and immerse yourself in nature. Clearly, a gastronomic tradition could not be lacking: they usually eat raw fava beans with Pecorino Romano cheese. This is a typical cheese from the Lazio region (where Rome is located) and is made with sheep’s milk. As in the Fast Metabolism Diet, cheese is not allowed, I have not been able to respect the tradition as it is, so I have decided to create a special dish for this day: black rice pasta with fava beans and chickpeas.

I await your opinions! 🐱

Gazpacho is a typical Andalusian dish, which has become a classic of Spanish cuisine. It is a quick recipe to make, economically affordable and above all delicious; Even more in summer. Still not easy to prepare.

I’m not exactly an expert on gazpachos, but I saw in La Principal there was a gazpacho contest, and I thought “I like to cook, and I’m good at inventing: let’s try something different.” And that I did: with some tomatoes, some cherries and some mozzarella I prepared a fresh and original gazpacho, which won the EXPERIMENTAL GAZPACHO prize.

If you want to try a more traditional version of gazpacho, you can find it here.
