Jammy Soft-Boiled Eggs
Topping a dish with a perfectly timed, jammy, soft-boiled egg adds nutrients and protein and can elevate the meal to a new, rich level.
Gluten-Free Spice Cake
Many of us have a sweet tooth, but we’re also aware that excessive sugar isn’t healthy. I believe in a balanced approach to life where desserts are occasional indulgences, not daily sustenance. Lately, I’ve been craving a sweet treat with fall flavors. One of my favorite autumn desserts is my Norwegian Apple Cake, but I also wanted a gluten-free, low-glycemic option in my repertoire. After some experimentation, I came up with this delicious Gluten-Free Spice Cake.
Delicious Vegan Sofritas
Delicious Vegan Sofritas Recipe is a delicious high-protein, gluten-free, and vegan option that can win over the staunchest of meat aficionados. It’s a tantalizing medley of onions, peppers, aromatic chilies, cumin, and sweet and smoky paprika. This vegan Sofritas recipe is perfect for those seeking a flavorful and satisfying plant-based meal.
WELCOME TO A NOURISHED LIFE
I’m Eva, a cook, writer, and lifelong seeker of the good life, living along Portugal’s windswept coast. Here, I share mostly plant-based, often gluten-free recipes that nourish both body and spirit, along with reflections on healing, aging, and intentional living.
To me, a nourished life means living with presence and grace. It’s a quiet walk by the sea, a meaningful conversation, and the joy of both the salad and the slice of cake.
I’m so glad you’re here.

Healing Through Food
What we eat doesn’t just feed us, it informs our health, our energy, and even our mood. Rooted in both tradition and science, I believe food can be one of our most powerful tools for healing. While some dishes are pure joy and celebration, many are created with wellness and nourishment in mind, supporting a life of balance, vitality, and intention.
