Minestrone is one of the oldest Italian dishes still made in Italian cuisine today. Normally it’s served as an appetizer before the main course, but this version here is actually THE main course. This Minestrone with Orecchiette Pasta is a flavorful dish that will fill you up and warm you at the same time. Unfortunately, this is something you have to start thinking about again in September. There is no way to sugarcoat it: winter is coming! ;)
Happy “Swedish Cinnamon Rolls Day”! Yes – these sweet little rolls have their own holiday to celebrate their greatness ;) With all these foodie holidays, I’m starting to wonder why I don’t have my own holiday yet (aside from my birthday) :P Well. I’m not really complaining – today is the day of the good old Swedishthe cinnamon rolls and, of course, we celebrate that! With delicious Vegan Apple Pecan Cinnamon Rolls aka. Kanelbullar or Kanelknuter.
Zucchini Boats is a dish my mom often made when I was a kid. I liked the combination of the zucchini, rice, minced meat, and all that cheese on top a lot. The Zucchini Boats I made here today are equally delicious but made without any dairy products or meat. Thanks to “fake meat” (no fake news) and “fake cheese” you can still make something that gets very close to the original. Even the rice is “fake” because it’s actually spelt… ;P
I might have mentioned it before – I’m a huge fan of dumplings. Any kind of dumplings. No matter if they are cooked in soup, deep-fried, or just steamed… these little fellas are almost always delicious. Today I got some vegan dumplings made in a bamboo steamer for you. Delicious steamed Dumplings with Mushrooms and Napa Cabbage. Nom Nom… ;)
Sometimes there is no way to get around it… Baked Feta Pasta drove the internet wild some time ago. It took me a while to understand why… but I do now. A super simple dish that tastes really delicious. It’s the perfect meal to prepare when coming home from work and don’t want to spend much time in the kitchen. Just grab a block of feta, some tomatoes and you’re almost ready to go ;)
There’s (almost) nothing better than a big pot of pasta with a delicious sauce for dinner (or lunch… I could eat it even for breakfast). I looove me some pasta since I was a little kid. I was always a big fan of spaghetti bolognese and this will probably never change ;) A large bowl of noodles with sauce and loads of grated cheese on top still makes me happy every time. In recent years, though, we more often switch from meat-based sauces to vegan alternatives like this version here with mushrooms and lentils. It’s equally delicious… if not even slightly 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 ;)
