Why I believe that making your own Tortilla Chips can be a defining moment

You don’t have to, as there are great store-bought versions, but try it once: make your own Tortilla Chips. It’s easy, fun and you can flavor them the way you like. Win-win-win, if you ask me!

>> Here’s how!

Cooking classes San Diego North County : Knife Skills Class - ILLUSTRATION knives by EDIE EATS FOOD BLOG by Edith Dourleijn

Making healthy date nut balls don’t take hours of practice. Just look in your cupboards, check your ingredients on Google and a useful recipe will show up. At least, that worked for me!

>> But you can do it too!

While we wait for the marshmallows – Fruity Oat Bars

RECIPE Fruity Oat Bars - blue berry -iillustration - edie eats food blog by Edith Dourleijn-small

Waiting for some baked goodiness to cool down enough to eat it, is one of the hardest parts of baking. I’ll keep on dribbling to the kitchen, sniffing up the good aromas, testing if it’s cool enough to cut of a piece, trying to keep in mind these Fruity Oat Bars are completely worth it.

>> Can you wait?
