Thyme Mushroom, Ham and Cheese Tart 🤤 here’s my recipe 👇

Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry defrosted
5-6 mushrooms chopped and sautéed
4 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded smoked Gouda
1 cup chopped ham
Salt & pepper
2 sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon butter melted

You will need a tart pan 😊 I use a stainless steel rectangular tart pan

Preparation
Defrost the puff pastry for an hour on your counter. Sauté the mushrooms in a skillet and set aside. When you’re ready, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Begin combining the eggs, smoked Gouda cheese, heavy cream, salt &pepper, thyme, ham, butter and whisk together. Butter the tart pan and lay the puff pastry over it. Cut the extra edges. With a fork , mark the puff pastry to prevent rising. Pour in the egg mixture into your pan and then add the mushrooms on top. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs and serve for your loved ones ♥️

Another Day, Another Salad 🥗 Did you know? Sal

Another Day, Another Salad 🥗

Did you know? Salads with arugula and spinach are often considered superior to other salads because they offer a perfect balance of nutrition, flavor, and texture. Here’s why they stand out:
1. Nutrient-Dense – Both arugula and spinach are packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, calcium, and antioxidants that promote overall health.
2. Flavorful and Peppery – Arugula has a distinct peppery bite that adds depth to salads, while spinach provides a mild, slightly sweet contrast.
3. Tender Yet Hearty – Unlike iceberg or romaine, spinach and arugula have a delicate texture that’s still robust enough to hold up to dressings and toppings.
4. Versatile – These greens pair well with a variety of ingredients, from fruits and nuts to cheeses and proteins, making them ideal for creative salads.
5. Gut-Healthy – Rich in fiber, these leafy greens support digestion and gut health better than many other lettuces.
6. Low-Calorie, High-Satisfaction – You get a nutrient-packed meal without excess calories, making it a great choice for healthy eating.

Whether you’re making a simple salad or something gourmet, arugula and spinach bring both taste and health benefits to the table

Spinach arugula mix
3 Persian cucumbers sliced
5-6 cherry tomatoes sliced
2 tablespoons sliced pitted kalamata olives
feta cheese (as much as you like 😉)
