Banana chocolate loaf cake

Banana chocolate loaf cake

Here’s an easy cake recipe that combine two of my favorite flavors everrrrr: banana and chocolate. Seriously, any combination of these two turns out delicious. Also, by adding banana to the batter, it means that you need tu use less sugar and butter than for most other cake recipes I’ve tried so that’s a nice plus. You can also easily make it into a dairy-free or gluten-free version if you’d like (see below) and it will be great for any…

Easy oven baked fish fillet in pesto crust

Easy oven baked fish fillet in pesto crust

Here’s one of my go-to recipes for when we don’t have much time to cook dinner. 10 little minutes of preparation time, and in the oven it goes for 20′ ! The fish is really moist thanks to the high water content of the zucchinis, and it is perfectly seasoned by the pesto. I often serve it with couscous or rice, and sometimes some salad. Feel free to try out this recipe with different types of fish (cod, salmon, sole,…)…
