Spring is officially here and also not – somehow the weather can not quite decide whether it should now be cold and wet or sunny. Well… that’s April I guess. At least here in Germany ;) Whenever the sun is not coming out it’s a good idea to get something “sunny” on the table. A delicious Buttermilk Lemon Pound Cake with Lemon Curd, for example. The colors alone say spring and sunny, right?! ;)
Happy Cookie Friday to all of you out there! I hope you are celebrating this special day with each week… if not it would be a bit weird if I say “Happy Cookie Friday to all of you” ;P Anyway. Today I got some really nice and easy and vegan and sugar-free and gluten-free and full of flavor cookies for you… if you like. If you are celebrating the day of the cookies. Delicious Date Almond Oats Cookies to be precise. Only a few ingredients, but combined a delicious snacky snack!
Mexican and tex-mex dishes are very popular around here for some time already. Not surprised – the food from this corner of the world is really delicious! No matter if it’s burritos, tacos, enchiladas, etc. …it’s all extremely tasty, but often quite some work to do in the kitchen if you want to prepare one of these dishes. These Tex-Mex Chicken Club Sandwiches are quick and easy to prepare – you could easily assemble them during your next lunch break and then eat them whenever you feel hungry ;)
If you’re into Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, I am pretty sure you’ve come across Refried Beans. These twice-cooked/baked beans are part of many dishes, but also work great with some nachos as a snack for your next party or movie night… in case we are allowed to celebrate parties with other people ever again ;P
If you love Mexican cuisine, you’ve come to the right place. Today I got a very simple “recipe” for a spice mix used in many Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes: Taco Seasoning. Much better (and cheaper) than anything from the supermarket. I promise! ;)
I am always very excited when spring arrives because it means rhubarb is about to come back as well. The time has come – my beloved rhubarb is “back in da house” and I can finally use it again in my bakes! Yay! So let’s start with a simple recipe this year – Rhubarb Crumble with Candied Ginger. It’s sooo delicious!
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
