Sípia amb pèsols (cuttlefish with peas). It can be made with or without potatoes.
It's a traditional dish from from the Empordà area of Catalonia and from Menorca (Balearic Islands), and one of those dishes that will definitely make you want to dip bread in its sauce.

So, I've switched to this thing called the anti-inflammatory diet or the mediterranean diet. The hope is that I'll be less nausea with it and maybe get some other good effects cause it's called anti-inflammatory for a reason. But does anyone have any good recipes for it?
Specifically bready things and sweet things. I usually have a lot of those two, but it's not really recommended so alternative or approved versions would be appreciated!

Hi Theitsa! I'm taking a nutrition class and one of the videos we had to watch for an assignment was on the benefits of the Mediterranean diet, particularly in how it can create 'blue zones' where people live longer than the global average, and it really made me think. The Mediterranean is not the only place that makes blue zones, there are blue zones in Japan and Latin America as well, but no one ever really goes around advocating for the Costa Rican diet or the Californian diet or the Japanese diet? In fact, in all these videos about the Mediterranean, they fail to mention the actual cities of the Mediterranean where people do actually live longer, like Icaria or Sardinia, which have a very unique geography that contributes to their long life! And yet all these dieticians don't go around recommending people climb a mountain 8 times every day like those people, or live in a floor-oriented society like in Japan.
I think a lot of it has to do with the Western intellectual colonization of the Mediterranean, particularly Greece. I was watching this video and just had to notice all the touristy, Instagram-perfect pictures they were using to push this diet instead of, well, actual pictures that researches have taken to record their findings, or the locations where people actually live longer. Santorini is not Icaria! Mikonos is not Icaria! Eating a plate of feta and hummus (since this is what the west seems to think encompasses the entire Mediterranean diet) in Santorini is *not* how the people of Icaria are living! It's pure colonialism and a disservice to Greece and Italy to be pushing a lifestyle that doesn't exist, and I don't know how to articulate all of this to my professor.
Just wanted to share.
Oooh nice ask!! I had these thoughts at the back of my mind myself and you came and articulated them perfectly!
I have more theories (I am not an expert, just blabbering) on the matter that could work in supplementing yours. The focus on Ikaria could be also because of geographical, cultural and biological proximity of the western nations to the Greek islands. The average Euro-North American person can perhaps benefit more from the Mediterranean diet than the Costa Rican and Japanese diet to which other populations have been more accustomed.
That doesn't make the other diets less nutritional ofc. I think all good diets have benefits for everyone. How bodies gather fat and nutritional elements, and what they resist (stuff like lactose) can play a role.
Another factor could be the availability of ingredients because of trade and what meals the population is used to, which are closer to the Mediterranean diet than the Japanese one.
Ok I'll go boil my fasolakia now 😭 And I don't even have feta to pair them with!!

I’ve been long battling my diet for the sake of my diabetes, ever since early 2022. I’ve stopped having conventional snack items and meat in favor of a vegetarian diet, with strict focus on whole foods. Overall, I feel a lot better than I used to, as I’m sticking with foods that don’t throw off my blood sugar.
… Though, until now, I cut back on too much. I had stopped having snack foods and simply didn’t replace them with anything effectively. I tried simply having larger breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, but they just made me feel tired and imbalanced. I tried including Greek yogurt and eggs during those times as well, and they simply amplified those feelings.
… That was until I realized thanks to a nutritionist that I could simply have those latter foods as snacks to supplement what I’d already been eating. Now, after an hour has past after a major meal, I prepare a serving of greek yogurt and an egg, with at least one serving containing the yolk. I feel a lot more balanced and capable with handling life.
Sometimes, all one really needs is for someone else to point them in the right direction.

Burballes is a traditional dish from Mallorca (Balearic Islands). It's a soup made with the typical Mallorcan burballes pasta in broth and more ingredients, that can be different kinds of meat (the most traditional recipe is made with hare, it's also popular with rabbit, chicken, lamb, piggeon...), peas, wild mushrooms, sobrassada (pork product), onion, green beans...

Hello!! I'm Ryou Bakura and I'm starting the Mediterranean diet (low on red meats, sugars, and saturated fats, but high on fruits, vegetables, unsaturated fats, and whole grains) and I'm looking for a good number of recipes to make while on this diet! I'm also fine with ideas for substitutions if recipes are hard to find! Thank you very much!!
Multigrain Rolls or Whole Grain Rolls for Drawbread Sandwiches
Sandwich Fillings:
White Bean Korokke (Japanese Croquette) (Croquette Sandwich)
Shredded Carrot with Mint and Blueberries (Carrot Sandwich)
Mackerel Sandwich
Pineapple Mango Salsa (Pineapple Sandwich)
Chestnut Purée (like nutella but better!) (Sweet Chestnut Sandwich)
Mediterranean Tuna Salad (In case mackerel isn't a fave)
Other Noms:
Gingered salmon stir-fry
Soba noodle stir-fry with edamame, mushrooms and bok choy
Roasted butternut squash soup
Lebanese Ramen for those ramen cravings
Cauliflower Potato Curry
Chicken miso ramen with a great substitution list!
Shrimp Curry (lots of work, can be partially prepped ahead)
Seafood Curry
Wafu Dressing – Japanese-style Salad Dressing
Homemade Fruit Granola (Furugura)
Mango Coconut Smoothie
It's surprisingly easy to mesh the Mediterranean Diet with Japanese cuisine!
I hope this helps!!!
