Creamy One-Pot Orzo with Leftover Chicken

Cooking, Pasta No Reply

Working with leftover food is an essential part of food preparation when you want to save some money and maybe do something good for the environment. Just throwing stuff away the next day because you do not want to eat the same thing twice is stupid (sorry if I say that so bluntly). You can always change things up and make something new with what you had the day before. The best example here – this One-Pot Orzo with leftover Roasted Chicken. An easy recipe that is ready in no time and absolutely delicious!

Simple & Easy Italian Pasta Salad

Pasta, Salad No Reply

I like me a good salad. Especially in summer when it’s warm outside. The time of year when you want to spend as little time as possible in the (warm) kitchen ;) Isn’t it much better to spend the time outside on the terrace or in the garden? You can prepare your dinner outside as well… on a grill, for example. Who would have thought it ;P For this simple Italian Pasta Salad you have to plan a little kitchen time though because – unless you can cook some pasta on your grill. Some of these big boys can do that, right? ;)

Steamed Red Beet Leaves with Garlic & Pine Nuts

Salad No Reply

Do you like red beets? Have you ever tried to eat the leaves? Unfortunately, supermarkets sell beets normally without any leaves. They wilt quite fast while the beets themselves are still good for days or even weeks. If you go to a farmer’s market you might be lucky, but even there the leaves are off most of the time. Well… if you are lucky one day you might want to try this recipe here – Steamed Red Beet Leaves with Garlic & Pine Nuts. So good!

Jumbo Blueberry Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Bake Together, Muffins No Reply

It’s time again for a new “Bake Together – The Baking Surprise” with Andrea Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte. Once a month we get together (virtually) and create something based on a topic we’ve chosen in advance – not knowing what the one on the other end of Germany (we live far from each other) is doing. This month it’s all about fruity muffins. You probably noticed that already when you saw these Jumbo Muffins with blueberries, lemon, and poppy seeds ;P
