Whenever we have guests at home, there has to be food on the table. It does not have to be much – something simple and delicious to share is fine in most cases. Something like these Baked Eggplants with Hummus & Matbucha, for example. Place a few of them on the table and everyone can help themselves. They are so good! Everyone will ask for the recipe, for sure! ;P
In the evening, we usually don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen preparing dinner. Wraps are always a good option when nobody is in the mood for an extensive cooking session. They are easy to prepare in advance and can be assembled quickly. Today, we made some delicious Chipotle Chicken Wraps with Guacamole. Rice, veggies, guacamole, and spicy chicken wrapped in extra large wheat tortillas – sounds pretty good, right?
If you want to whip up dinner quickly after work, gnocchi, potato noodles, and other types of pasta are super convenient. Most of them can be bought pre-cooked in supermarkets these days – this means you only have to heat everything up quickly, add a quick sauce, and your dinner is ready almost instantly. These Quick Gnocchi & Meatballs in Tomato Sauce are on the table in about 20 minutes. Even a local delivery service would have a hard time keeping up with that… at least during rush hour, when everyone is ordering at the same time. ;P
Summer is the time for veggies from your own garden… if you have one. One of the easiest and most productive veggies to grow is definitely zucchini. In case you got a few home-grown zucchini lying around, you might want to take a look at these delicious Zucchini Fries with Ranch Dip. Quick and easy to prepare and really tasty. Like everything deep-fried. ;P
Is there anything better than having a big plate of food on the table where everyone can help themselves as they please? These easy Nachos with Chili con Carne are perfect for evenings when you’re sitting together, chatting, having fun and want to munch on something. You could also enjoy a little tray like this on the couch when watching a movie. No need to share with other people. ;P
I guess we are not alone here – after a long day of working, nobody here wants to spend a long time in the kitchen for dinner. That’s why we love simple and quick recipes in the evening. Simple pasta dishes, like this One-Pot Orzo with Minced Meat, Zucchini & Bell Peppers are great for weeknight dinners. Loads of flavor, little effort and delicious! All we ever wanted! Nothing more, nothing less. ;P
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 ;)
