Hi guys!! I hope you all are well! I am back with a super delicious recipe, actually a few of them! The white bean hummus, the avocado dip, and the baked eggplant + sweet potato go very well on toast or any gluten free bread or pizza.
It is Monday and finally, the sun came back to Vienna! I hope you all enjoyed some free time during the weekend, and feel excited about the new week. This week I want to sort out all the things we don't need and use at home. It occupies a lot of space and I feel that it is connected with the space inside me. So let go of unnecessary things and feel free.
And now its time for this brunch, lunch recipe that is absolutely worth trying out!!
