I’m almost always up for a big bowl of pasta. So good. Unfortunately, I have to be careful with carbs – once they enter my body, they collect on my hips and never leave the premises again ;P I think many know this problem as well. I hope this easy to prepare Pasta with Meatballs & Spinach is not too tempting for anybody…
Goulash and stews are very popular dishes in our house. Though we are not preparing them that often – but when we do, we really enjoy it. This Oven Braised Beef & Mushroom Stew is a variation of a classic Goulash and is done mostly in the oven. That means this dish is extremely uncomplicated to prepare. Sit back and relax and let the oven do most of the work ;P
We are big fans of Asian cuisine. We just love the use of all of these fresh ingredients and spices. Especially stir-fried noodles with veggies are one of our favorites. Fresh from the wok it’s all so good! One dish we do quite often is Singapore Noodles with Pork. So quick and easy to prepare and also extremely delicious! We love it!
We love simple pasta dishes – especially the ones made in a casserole dish ;) You can find those dishes in pretty much every international cuisine. Of course, not always prepared the same way ;) In Greece, for example, they have this absolutely awesome Greek Pasta Bake aka. Pastitsio which not only looks great but also tastes excellent. It might look like a lot of work, but honestly, it’s not that complicated ;)
Summer is the time for barbecue! Right? However, even in summer, you can have rainy days too. That means you might not always be able to grill something outside in your backyard. If you got an electric grill that’s actually not a problem – just move your BBQ party into the house. These delicious Kofta Skewers with Tomato Salad can be grilled outside or inside – it does not really matter. They will turn out great no matter what type of grill you are going to use… a frying pan is actually also fine here ;)
There are only a few soups that are great to make and to enjoy all year round. This delicious (Italian) Tomato Soup with Pasta & Meatballs is definitely one of these soups. It is simple, delicious and a great dish to cook in summer and winter. I have to admit there is a lot going on in this soup – veggies, plenty of meat and a lot of pasta. With all of that you will still not feel stuffed at the end. No need to take a break on the sofa for an hour… unless you want to ;P Other hearty winter soups often require a time-out because they are so rich and heavy on the stomach… not this one ;)
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 ;)
