Pide with Spinach, Tomato & Feta Cheese

Pita bread is known almost everywhere in the world – it is basically the first type of bread that was made with crushed grains. Flour and some water are mixed and then slapped onto a hot stone. Shortly after that you get something like a pancake/flatbread you can eat. Over the years this type of bread evolved, of course. In Turkey, for example, they serve flatbread with delicious fillings. As an example, I got some flatbread aka. Pide with Spinach, Tomatoes & Feta. Quite easy to prepare and really delicious! Perfect if you got guests coming over ;)

Quick & Easy Gnocchi Chicken Alfredo

Cooking, Pasta No Reply

Do you ever think about how famous dishes got their names? Many dishes have names that are connected to places or cities – but some of them have people’s names in the title/description. When I hear the name of a dish like Gnocchi Chicken Alfredo, I always think it’s probably something from the US. People tend to put their names on everything there – not saying that to be mean ;P Well… in the case of this dish here the name is actually based on a guy from Rome called »Alfredo«. At least that’s what Wikipedia claims ;P

Potato Skins with Bacon & Cheese

Pizza & Co., Snacks No Reply

I guess… if you like to cook and bake as much as I do, you normally have something prepared when guests come over, right? Whenever I got someone coming to our place for a movie or game night I love to prepare stuff I normally don’t do (during the week). Snacks that are great for a crowd but not perfect if you are only two at home. Snacks like these Potato Skins with Bacon & Cheese, for example. Absolutely divine but a bit much if you want to eat all of them alone ;P

Sloppy Joe’s with Bacon

Burger & Sandwiches No Reply

I guess here in Germany not everyone is familiar with Sloppy Joe’s. To be honest, I haven’t seen any restaurant or street food truck yet that sells them here… and here in Berlin you can get basically every dish from all over the world ;P

Americans probably all know about these sandwiches. They created Sloppy Joe’s and basically every other weird burger/sandwich out there ;P

Roasted Cauliflower with Whipped Feta

Snacks, Summer No Reply

We are big fans of mezze, antipasti, and tapas around here. All those small (and sometimes larger) dishes you place on the table and everybody just grabs whatever he/she/they want. Love it! In my opinion, it actually doesn’t matter if you are a large group or just a party of two ;P This Roasted Cauliflower with Whipped Feta is just one of many delicious options we like to make here at home. So get your forks out and let’s start eating! From my experience, you should act quickly because a plate like this is empty in an instant ;P

Homemade Feta Spread with Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Homemade No Reply

What’s the most important thing you need when you have friends or family over on your terrace? Drinks? Well… yes, but what about food? Most definitely! ;P I think snacks are more important than drinks. I am fine with water only if I get some olives to nibble on or nice bread and something to dip ;) That’s why I always have stuff like that at home or at least, the ingredients to make something like this Feta Spread with Sun-dried Tomatoes. Nobody sits on my terrace without anything to eat ;P
