I found this recipe for Moussaka Greek style on a magazine that I was reading while waiting for my turn at the hairdresser. Yes, I think about food even while I’m having my hair done 🙂 The article explained that this was the Greek version of Moussaka as the ingredients are layered and topped with…

Baked Stuffed Marrows
Marrow was a totally new discovery for me when I arrived to Malta… for me it looked like a zucchini or a courgette. But I was told that it was a marrow! So I had to get in touch with our good friend “Google” and find out more about it. And I learned that Zucchini…
