About

Hi! I’m Carlota!

Welcome to My Kitchen!

I’m a chef and food enthusiast from Barcelona, passionate about creating healthy, flavorful meals. My cooking focuses on mostly plant-based recipes, fresh seafood dishes, and refreshing drinks, always exploring the tastiest ways to eat healthy together.

Growing up, I loved watching my grandmother prepare authentic Spanish food from scratch, using her favorite measure “un poco” (“a little bit”). Inspired by her simplicity and passion, I began developing my own recipes, combining tradition with modern, health-conscious twists.

Here at Sweet Basil, you’ll find a curated collection of:

Classic Spanish recipes full of authentic flavor

Latin-inspired dishes influenced by my love for South American cuisine

Healthy meal ideas, including plant-based and seafood options

Refreshing drink recipes perfect for any season
