For us, a simple Chili con Carne is a dish that is usually prepared for parties – although it’s also a great meal for lunch or dinner. You just have to cook a big pot and then you can enjoy it for several days. Well… or serve make a large party crowd happy right after midnight, when everybody is hungry after all that singing and dancing. ;P
Do you like soup? We do, but to be honest, we prefer soups that have a lot of stuff added. A homemade potato soup, chicken soup or this Simple & Easy Hungarian Goulash Soup, for example. A delicious dish my family always loved to prepare when it’s colder outside. Give us a clear soup with just a noodle or two, and you will see only sad faces. ;P
Stews are not only delicious when it’s cold outside. A dish like this Stew with Lentils, Potatoes & Smokey Sausage tastes great all year round and is therefore something you can cook any day of the year. You might not need this as a warming dish in the height of summer, but if you are looking for something tasty, it does not matter if it’s freezing or hot outside. ;P
A simple stew is the perfect dish for a cold winter’s day. You can make a dish like that on any other day of the year, of course, but during the colder months you simply get more out of it. A stew like this Vegan Mushroom & Beans Stew will warm you from the inside. It’s also delicious, of course. No matter what season we’re in right now. ;)
We prepare simple stews almost every week in autumn and winter. We usually have all the ingredients you need for a stew at home. Even for this simple Stew with Beans, Lentils & Knackwurst, we typically have everything that’s needed in the cupboards or fridge. It never hurts to keep a few dry beans and lentils at hand ;P
Stews are something that is normally served during the colder months of the year – but that’s not the case for us here. We love delicious stews all year round. Like this simple Vegan Lentil & Potato Stew. It is super easy to prepare and quick on the table. The perfect meal if you don’t want to work a lot on a weeknight to prepare dinner. We all feel the same in this kind of situation – the quicker, the better ;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 ;)
