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.

Heirloom Tomato & Plum Salad with Basil-Mint Pesto and Burrata
It has been feeling more like fall at our home than the middle of summer. Big thunder storms roll through in the middle of the night and we wake to beautiful crisp mornings. I grab a cup of coffee and sit on the deck with my pup, China, and watch the birds at work....
