Tex-Mex Chicken Club Sandwiches

Mexican and tex-mex dishes are very popular around here for some time already. Not surprised – the food from this corner of the world is really delicious! No matter if it’s burritos, tacos, enchiladas, etc. …it’s all extremely tasty, but often quite some work to do in the kitchen if you want to prepare one of these dishes. These Tex-Mex Chicken Club Sandwiches are quick and easy to prepare – you could easily assemble them during your next lunch break and then eat them whenever you feel hungry ;)

Homemade Refried (Black) Beans

Homemade, Snacks No Reply

If you’re into Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, I am pretty sure you’ve come across Refried Beans. These twice-cooked/baked beans are part of many dishes, but also work great with some nachos as a snack for your next party or movie night… in case we are allowed to celebrate parties with other people ever again ;P

Easter Eggs Energy Balls (no added sugar)

Cookies, Easter, sugar-free, Vegan No Reply

The closer we get to Easter the less you can avoid chocolate Easter bunnies and chocolate Easter eggs in the stores. They are basically everywhere. As you might know – I am trying to avoid sugar wherever I can, so sweets with chocolate are not always the best option ;) Luckily, you can make some nice Easter sweets/snacks easily at home. These Easter Egg Energy Balls, for example. They are made without any white sugar (also vegan) and really delicious!

Valentine’s Day Craquelin Cream Puffs

Pastry, Snacks No Reply

Well… the plan was actually to NOT bake more for Valentine’s Day this year, but somehow the idea for these Valentine’s Day Craquelin Cream Puffs has been (stuck) in my head for quite a while. They may not be the prettiest cream puffs in the world, but they were definitely made with a lot of love… and maybe they were made because I had to prove something to myself ;P

How about a little snack? If your answer is „yes“, I might have something for you. Delicious deep-fried Mac ‘n’ Cheese Balls. Have you ever tried? If not, it’s about time! These little balls of joy are soooo good ;) Like everything made in a deep-fryer. Unfortunately. You should not have stuff like that too often, but once in a while is ok. Just don’t overdo it. You heard it from me – the biggest fan of deep-fried food ;P
