The weather has suddenly changed. During our first day in the Lofoten ( we arrived this morning at 3 a.m.) we still had amazing views until, after 6pm the mist barged in. Being tired after little sleep, we installed ourselves to enjoy a cosy campervan evening. I decide to prepare a stew with carrots, tomato … More Lentils in a stew, or could you call it dahl?
We love oven fried polenta as a side dish or even as an appetizer. I have some whole wheat polenta in our camper storage, but no oven. Let’s try. Cook 160 grams of polenta, following the instructions of the package ( mine is a quick one). Add salt and some dried oregano to give the … More Let’s prepare a dinner with polenta

We did an amazing hike ( Reinaknuten) today. We hesitated to stay on the starting point, but it was too obvious camping was not allowed ( what’s the difference between camping and parking?). We continued our way and arrived near Dam Lyngsvatn, a beautiful spot which made us believe we landed on the moon. What … More What a beautiful camping spot
Today I check the food storage to find out what to prepare with a bunch of fresh carrots. The peanut butter looks at me and will become the flavor of our dinner. I clean the carrots ( approximately 800 grams) and chop them in little cubes. Chop and fry 4 garlic cloves, 5 cm of … More Peanut butter 😋
Cooking recipes in a campervan cannot be too complicated, as you can imagine. We, or is it mainly I, prefer warm dinners, even in summer (especially when the outdoor temperature is between 5 and 10 degrees). I think this recipe is already more than 20 years on my list. Originally it’s from Nigella Lawson. I … More This is an old one
We are in Central Norway, on the scenic route ‘Peer Gynt’. We found a beautiful spot to spend the night. We avoid being surrounded by trees as there is a strong wind. I have some leek and mushrooms as vegetables. I thought to serve them with a creamy pasta, combined with crispy bacon for me … More Outdoor cooking
We had an amazing day in Bohuslän, the western coastal region. The landscape is amazing, the weather ideal ( sunny, and around 20-21 degrees). Walking through Fjallbäcka we even found a fish shop, so our proteins were decided. Nothing better than a side dish with green asparagus, tomatoes and spring onions. Chop and fry 4 … More Our last meal in Sweden
As we are Midsommar weekend I thought it would be lovely to prepare a dinner with the typical ingredients such as new potatoes, dill and strawberries.

What did I buy? : strawberries ( of course), 500 grams of new potatoes, 250 grams of local green asparagus, … More Celebrating Midsommar
The variety of grill cheeses, such as halloumi, is large. Although it’s not the healthiest ingredient regarding saturated fat and salt, we both love it, and we eat it as protein source. Tonight I bought 2 grill cheeses with chili, each 150 grams, 500 grams of red sweet bell pepper, and baby spinach and arugula. … More Grill cheese is amazingly delicious
