Fresh from the grill 🍆✨

This grilled eggplant with mozzarella and basil is one of those simple dishes we end up making again during grilling season. Soft eggplant, sweet onions, garlic, olive oil, and a good handful of fresh basil make such a lovely combination, especially when finished with creamy mozzarella.

We had it with grilled chicken and a simple mixed lettuce salad with olive oil and lemon juice, fresh and perfect for a warm day.

Usually it’s Cooking with Ella… but today it was gardening with Ella 🍅🌿

While I was working with the tomato plants in the greenhouse, Ella decided it was the perfect place for a nap. This photo was taken right after she woke up, still looking a little sleepy and very cozy in the warm greenhouse.

The tomato plants are growing well already, and apparently the greenhouse makes a pretty good napping spot too 💛

Finnish egg butter (munavoi) is usually known as the classic topping for Karelian pies, but I’ve recently started enjoying it in a few new ways as well 🥚✨

It’s absolutely delicious spooned over warm new potatoes with fresh dill, and it also works surprisingly well with white asparagus for a simple Nordic-style side dish.

Of course, the traditional way still remains a favourite, especially on warm Karelian pies, but it’s fun to see how versatile this simple egg and butter spread can be.

A slice of traditional Finnish cabbage pie served with fresh salad 💛

This buttery cabbage pie, or Kaalipiirakka, is one of those recipes I remember from childhood family gatherings and summer cottage days. The flaky crust and soft cabbage filling make it perfect served slightly warm with a fresh salad on the side.

Creamy cabbage slaw with horseradish, fresh herbs, carrot, and red bell pepper. It is one of my favorite ways to use new season cabbage. Fresh, crunchy, and easy to serve alongside grilled dishes, salmon, or everyday dinners.

Ella may have been stung by a wasp on her paw, so we’ve been taking it a little easier today. Medicine applied and a little boot on the paw. Instead of wild ball games, we’ve been playing gentle sniffing games in the grass, which Ella seemed to enjoy very much. 🐾

Creamy dill salmon with white wine sauce, asparagus, and buttery potatoes is one of my favorite ways to serve salmon at home. Simple ingredients, fresh dill, and a silky sauce make this Nordic-inspired dinner easy to cook and serve for family or guests.
