They are collection of our holiday food photos.
In the local supermarket, we found some jars of red pepper and chili paste, red pepper paste also cannellini beans etc. So, those were very first items we purchased looking local products. We tend to look where those came from, and if they were local, we defo purchase. Also, we love buying anything looking lovely vegetables and fruits. Food shopping is the one of activities we do the first after we check into our accommodation.
Villa we stayed in was also for sale, cute looking villa under the very steep hill. It had upstairs room, huge and empty, it looked like storage space, I attempted to practise my yoga there.

My travel yoga mat was very slippery, I was not able to practise what I wanted, so, in the end, I did in the kitchen where calor gas stove was and warmer. I did yin yoga and went down nicely especially after our long walks.
Anyway, when I looked at garden, there were full of parsley, spring onions, and fennels. So, I picked some, decided to make some onion and parsley soup.
Also made some "red pepper chili hummus" made with cannellini beans, ate them with corn cakes.
We also bought lots of fruits, so, we had some fruits for afters. Felt very cozy. Although it was March, it was very chilly in the evening. Calor gas stove was on quite a bit in the evenings and mornings.
Marcus made us some smoothies for our breakfast. We took some protein powders with us, and with yummy fruits we bought made us lovely breakfast!

When we are on our holiday, we do like to eat out. Even lunch or early dinner after walks. So, we managed to find a restaurant with chips and yummy salad. Simple foods like these are usually enough for us. vegetables themselves taste much more delish than we eat here. That is why, some Mediterranean countries have very simple dishes, if ingredients are good quality and taste that vegetables, don't need much cooking or sauces. That is me, anyway...

Also, same place, they had freshly squeezed orange juice. OMG, it was beautiful. I do love orange juice, but I don't often drink it here, gives me funny tummy. Too acidic... but, orange juice in Madeira or Greece, never give me funny tummy. 😍 Hooray!
