Quick and easy dish. That”s what I need for supper. I liked that there is no cheese. But I don’t know about my hubby. He is the cheese lover, but eating this dish he didn’t mentioned cheese. So I don”t know he was satisfied with the meal or just tired repeating that he needs cheese 🙂 Any way – the dish is good and classic.

Cherry tomato tart
Sometimes happens that you buy something and forget where you were planning to use it. The same happened with cherry tomatoes. So I used this easy recipe. I was surprised when my hubby liked it, because he doesn’t like basil and oregano.
Pizza waffles
When today children heard that will be these waffles for lunch, impatiently waited until they baked and of course waffles disappeared quickly. Daughter even after a dance session ate all leftovers. She literally licked the plate clean (I had to look carefully into the plate to understand that it was not washed out :)). But don’t think that some wild people live down here in our house, I have to mention that she licked the sauce with waffle, not with the tongue 🙂
White beans and dried tomato salads
Once I made these salads and it was something new. Maybe it tasted not so usual to us, but it was really good. And now I made these salads for four times and they still disappear very quickly. So I save the recipe here and recommend to try them you too.
Pasta with olives
One more easy and quick pasta recipe. If you like olives, this dish will be definitely in your favourite list. Sometimes, when I prepare some new dish – everyone in my family likes it, but when I repeat it – the second time we don’t. Maybe it happens to you to? But this time, when I prepared this pasta again, my hubbies decision was the same – absolutely winner.
Tuna pie with tomatoes
Don’t know why but I want to eat fish. So once in a week a prepare from it something. This time it was tuna pie with tomatoes. And believe me – tomatoes are a must in here. They give freshness, that we liked a lot. We had very delicious dinner, and the next day lunch.
