As promised: More pics from our huge X-mas shoot for Margriet Magazine. Just to get you in the mood. The magazine is available in the Dutch stores now, so if you see something you’d like to make, you still can get hold of it, just in time for Christmas.
The story contains more than of 20 my recipes, as a Mix & Match Menu, chef Colette Beijne and stylist Maaike van Haaster even made their own menu suggestions too.
All dishes are easy to fix and good to make ahead. I even put some wine suggestions in it too. Just to make it easy for you.

Maaike van Haaster was the propstylist and Paul Grootes the photographer. Jessica Lek assisted me on food styling.
