Looking for delicious simple food that saves you time and money?
You’ve come to the right place. My goal is to share quick yet creative recipes that use simple inexpensive ingredients. Fresh and tasty meals that make you feel good, and save your time and paycheck.
WHO I AM.

I’m Katia, ex-lawyer, busy mum, and girl who loves food.
Simple, real, food. Every day.
I come from Italy, I lived in San Francisco and I’m currently based in London.
As a kid, I was raised by the most typical Italian mum you could imagine. As far as I can remember, she was always busy in her kitchen and her food was simply epic. That passion and love for home cooking have never left me.
I love creating mainly vegetarian meals that require basic ingredients, vegetables, and beans. Hearty soups, flavorsome pasta dishes, and sweet treats packed with fruit, not sugar.
My recipes are easy, quick, and loaded with Mediterranean flavors and nutrients. They are tested several times before being shared on this blog. And behind every recipe, photo and blog post is me, an everyday home cook and pizza lover!
Plus, I have a real passion for saving money.
Believe me, slashing on grocery bills, takeaways and restaurants makes a huge difference to my bank account at the end of the year. Beans are healthier and cheaper than beef, but cooking on a budget doesn’t mean I miss out on delicious food.
If you love easy, affordable and delicious recipes, you’re in the right place!
