Before I went vegan, I worked at Swedish restaurant Aquavit, located in midtown New York for a while. This also happens to be where I met my American husband, who worked as a chef there at the time. I fell in love with both the food and the chef, and...
The holidays for me is a particularly great opportunity to showcase to my husband, other family members and friends that eating plant-based not only is satisfying and delicious, but even more exciting, varied and tastier than what you might ever have experienced as a...
Risgrøt, or risengrynsgrøt as they call it in my part of Norway, is a simple rice porridge made typically of short grain rice, short grain rice, salt and perhaps a little cream. Served with a generous sprinkle of sugar and cinnamon with a big dollop of butter placed...
As a food blogger, I am always inspired to see what other bloggers are up to and what they create. Laura Theodore, aka the Jazzy Vegetarian, is a talented vegan chef, cookbook author, radio host and actor I've loved to follow, from her award-winning PBS television...
Fiskegrateng is a classic dish most Norwegians remember from childhood, aimed to please both adults and kids, even those that wrinkle their nose when they hear "we're having fish for dinner". Fiskegrateng is what I call true Norwegian comfort food, and a dinner I...

I remember when I first became vegan and started thinking about all the dishes I had grown up with that I would no longer be able to enjoy. Come to think of it, most traditional Norwegian foods have either meat, fish, dairy or eggs in them. But as I started...
For someone who isn't a huge pumpkin fan to begin with, this is a pretty big statement which I hope will catch attention. Because your gustatory experience will depend on it. It's not often I even get tempted by anything "pumpkin" and as a native of Norway, I never...
I've long been trying to perfect a vegan cinnamon bun, or "kanelboller" or "kanelsnurrer" as they go by in Norwegian. Luckily it's not hard to veganize them, as they don't need eggs nor dairy, and omitting these ingredients will not affect neither the flavor nor the...
Having just returned from a week in London, I definitely feel a tad heavier after too much restaurant food and wine. The Brits sure like their share of booze and heavy food... I do try to eat as healthy as possible while I am on vacation, but I also subscribe to the...
