Dulce de Leche, bananas and meringue are a delicious and rich combination, but the lime zest adds a citrous bite and makes it irresistible! This pie is super easy and super delicious!!! Serve with vanilla ice cream on the side, if you wish.

Passion fruit and chocolate is a classic combination in Brazilian cuisine, but this chocolate cheesecake has also an unexpected twist: vanilla balsamic! The passion fruit sauce adds a tropical touch to this decadent dessert.

Quinoa is a very healthy grain and it can be used as a more nutritional alternative to rice or pasta.

I used cod in this roulade, but it can be made with sole or tilapia too. The process is very simple (the only fancy thing about it is its name!) but the presentation is very pretty. My version of tapenade has dried apricots for a sweeter touch and it can also be served as a dip for crackers or bread. Enjoy with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Gris.

This salad has just enough sweetness to break the bitterness of the arugula. Perfect for spring!

The cream cheese adds richness to this shrimp dish. I used Catupiry (the Brazilian style cream cheese) and I made this recipe while spending time with my family in the beach town of Camboriú, Brazil.
