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.
