Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Pasta with Baked Feta

I’ve made so many versions of creamy pasta by now, but this one is really special — the deep smoky flavor from the roasted peppers and the burst cherry tomatoes takes it to another level.

The sauce comes together in a blender and coats every bite so beautifully. It’s simple, cozy, and satisfying — everything you want in a weeknight pasta.

Save this one for your next slow evening at home. It’s 100% worth it.

Ingredients (4 servings)

400 g pasta of choice
20–25 cherry tomatoes
2 red bell peppers, halved and deseeded
125 g block of feta cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Herbs of choice (like oregano, thyme, or basil)
Salt and black pepper to taste
½ cup reserved starchy pasta water
Optional: freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan).
In a baking dish, place the halved peppers, scatter tomatoes around, and nestle the feta in the center.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, herbs, pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Bake for 30–35 minutes until the peppers are soft and tomatoes have burst.
Meanwhile, cook your pasta and reserve ½ cup of the water.
Blend the roasted vegetables, feta, and pan juices with the pasta water until smooth and creamy.
Toss with the pasta and adjust seasoning. Top with Parmesan or chili flakes if you like.

Spinach Lentil Salad with Crispy Halloumi

This is one of my favorite ways to turn salad into a real meal. Fresh spinach, juicy tomatoes, creamy lentils, and that golden crispy halloumi on top—it’s salty, tangy, hearty, and still feels light.

Perfect for a quick summer lunch or an easy dinner when you want something wholesome but satisfying. Comes together in 20 minutes and tastes even better than it looks.

Ingredients
200 grams fresh spinach, roughly chopped
225 grams halloumi cheese, sliced
A handful of cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup cooked green lentils (boiled and rinsed)
Olive oil for frying

For the Dressing:
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Juice of ½ lemon
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, add a little olive oil, and fry the halloumi slices for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper.
Combine spinach, cherry tomatoes, and cooled cooked lentils in a large bowl. Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently.
Top with warm halloumi slices and serve immediately.

Fudgy Dark Chocolate Brownies with Walnuts & Hazelnuts

Brownies and coffee have always been one of my favorite little rituals. I used to order them often in cafés until I started baking these at home. Rich, fudgy in the center, with a shiny crackly top and just the right crunch from toasted walnuts and hazelnuts.

Ingredients
2 large eggs (room temp)
180 g sugar (ideally 130 g white + 50 g light brown)
125 g butter
100 g dark chocolate (60–70% cacao)
85 g flour, sifted
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 packet vanillin
Pinch of salt
70–80 g toasted walnuts and hazelnuts

Instructions
Preheat oven to 175°C (top-bottom heat). Toast the nuts in a dry pan, then set aside. Melt the butter and chocolate together. In another bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until pale and frothy. Stir in the vanilla and melted chocolate. Sift in the flour, cocoa, and salt. Fold gently, then stir in the nuts (reserve a few for topping). Rest batter 5 min, pour into lined 20x20 cm pan, top with extra nuts, and bake 28–32 min. Cool fully before slicing.

🍔 Kid-Friendly Cheeseburgers (Our McDonald’s at Home)

This is as plain as a cheeseburger gets. My son doesn’t want lettuce, onions, or anything green near his burger. His favorite is soft buns, juicy beef, melted cheddar. Not even tomato (you’ll only see tomato in the video because that was mine 😂).

It’s our kid-friendly McDonald’s alternative. For us adults, I’ll sometimes add caramelized onions, pickles, or a fancy sauce—but for him, this is perfection. And for kids, less is always more than enough.

Ingredients

500g ground beef (20% fat if possible)
1 small onion, finely grated with its juices
2 teaspoons soy sauce
½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or natural vinegar – just a splash)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
4–6 cheddar slices (1 per patty)
Burger buns (store-bought)
Optional toppings: ketchup, mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, pickles
Optional: 1 tablespoon neutral oil (if beef is lean)

In a bowl, mix the ground beef, grated onion (with juices), soy sauce, vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Combine gently—don’t overmix.

Divide into 4 medium patties (~125g) or 6 thinner patties (~80g). Flatten slightly wider than your buns.

Heat a pan over medium-high. Add oil only if needed. Cook patties:
– Thin: 1.5–2 minutes per side
– Medium: 2.5–3 minutes per side

Place cheddar slices on patties for the last 30 seconds and cover to melt.

Toast the buns in the same pan until golden. Assemble with sauces and toppings—or keep it plain for picky little ones.

🦆 Pan-Seared Duck Breast

I never thought I’d be the one pan-searing duck at home. It always felt like the kind of dish you save for a fancy night out. But here I am, slowly crisping up the skin in my own kitchen—it’s simpler than I ever imagined.

The duck renders its own fat, turning the skin beautifully golden while keeping the meat tender and juicy. I served it with a fresh arugula salad tossed with grated parmesan and a glass of white wine, and suddenly it felt like a restaurant dinner… except I’m still in my yoga pants.

Ingredients
2 duck breasts
Salt
Black pepper
Optional: arugula salad with grated parmesan and a glass of white wine

Instructions
Let the duck breasts sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Pat dry and season generously with salt and black pepper.

Place skin-side down in a cold, dry pan. Cook over medium-low heat for 7–10 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, spooning off excess fat as it renders.

Flip and cook the other side for 3–4 minutes (medium-rare: ~54°C inside). Remove and cover loosely with foil to rest for 5–7 minutes.

Slice thinly and serve with arugula salad with grated parmesan and a glass of white wine.

Zucchini and Feta Frittata

Brunch idea! 🍳 This frittata delivers when I’m craving mücver (Turkish zucchini fritters) but don’t have the time or when I feel like going for a healthier and quicker option. Tender zucchini, creamy feta, and fluffy baked eggs come together in one pan for a light, flavorful dish that works beautifully for brunch, lunch, or even a simple summer dinner.

Ingredients
4 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 medium zucchini, sliced into half moons
40 g feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt
Black pepper
Optional: chili flakes or fresh herbs

Preheat your oven to 180°C. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe pan and sauté the onion until soft. Add zucchini and cook for 3–4 minutes until tender, seasoning with salt and pepper. Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper, then pour over the zucchini. Top with crumbled feta and herbs. Bake for 10–15 minutes until set and golden. Let cool slightly before slicing.

One-Pan Eggplant & Garlic Pasta

That’s Amore… when the pasta cooks right in the sauce and turns into a full meal with silky eggplant and plenty of garlic. 🍝 Simple enough for weeknights but with flavors that feel a little indulgent.

Ingredients
2 aubergines, diced
4–5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
400g peeled tomatoes (or canned)
250g linguine or any pasta you love
2 tablespoons olive oil or sunflower oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Dried oregano
Dried basil (optional)
Chili flakes (optional)
Fresh basil or parsley, to garnish (optional)
Grated parmesan or pecorino (optional)

Start by heating olive oil in a deep pan and letting the aubergine cook until soft and golden. Stir in the garlic and let it sizzle for a minute until fragrant.

Add the tomatoes with 2 cups of boiling water. Bring to a gentle simmer, then add the pasta. Let it cook uncovered, stirring now and then, until the pasta is tender and the sauce has thickened (about 10–12 minutes). Add more boiling water if it starts to dry out.

Season to taste and finish with fresh herbs and cheese if you like.

Oven-Baked Chicken Thighs with Yoghurt and Cumin Marinade

Here’s what I paired with bulgur the other day: juicy oven-baked chicken thighs marinated in yoghurt, cumin, and a handful of spices. The yoghurt keeps the chicken so tender while the spices bring a depth of flavor that feels both comforting and vibrant. Simple to prepare, and the oven does all the hard work while you get on with the rest of dinner.

Ingredients:
800g boneless chicken thighs
3 tbsp plain yoghurt
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp tomato or red pepper paste
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
2 cloves of garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Optional: 1 tsp chili flakes for heat

Instructions:
Combine yoghurt, olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, and spices into a marinade. Coat the chicken and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 3 hours.

Preheat oven to 200°C (fan 190°C). Arrange chicken on a parchment-lined tray. Bake whole thighs for 30–35 minutes or cubed pieces for 20–25 minutes until golden and cooked through. For crispy edges, broil for the last 5 minutes.

A staple in Turkish homes, bulgur pilaf is the kind of dish that shows how simple ingredients can create something so comforting. Fluffy, flavorful, and ready in under 20 minutes, it’s the perfect everyday side dish. Made with nutritious bulgur wheat, tomato paste, and onions, it pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, a hearty stew, or even just a spoonful of yogurt for a quick and wholesome meal.

Ingredients:
1 cup bulgur wheat
2 tbsp olive oil or butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
2 cups hot chicken or vegetable broth (or water)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Heat olive oil or butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion until soft and translucent. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the bulgur and mix to coat. Pour in hot broth or water, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 8-10 minutes until most liquid is absorbed. Turn off heat and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve warm.
