Blueberries cake with yoghurt
For the fathers day I made this cake. And it disappeared in minutes, almost everyone repeated. But I have to confess – I didn’t bake sponge, I used bought ones. Next time, I’m sure there will be next time, I will bake it. I really recommend to bake this cake!
View FullLemon pumpkin soup
This is one of the old recipes, but it was waiting to show here because of tiredness or laziness. Don’t know which would be correct word 🙂 But we liked it so it’s time for soup to show up here. Its sourness was fabulous so for sure we will repeat it when fresh pumpkin will be at my home again.
View FullPumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
These muffins are really good, because they are very moist, not very sweet and of course – they are with chocolate! My kids just love them and at one time ate almost everything (my hubby helped them a little bit 🙂 ). So we agreed that we will repeat very soon.
View FullBerry and banana sherbet
Warm days will come back soon so we should be prepared. This sherbet is very quick, and kids will like it for sure because you don’t have to wait while they will chill. You just blend and enjoy!
View FullSwirled pumpkin cream cheese cake
It looks like simple ordinary pumpkin cake, but special taste gives cream cheese. It takes cake to another level 🙂
View FullCake with the caramelized bananas
This year my little boy turned 4! And this is his cake. I spend a lot of time looking for the right cake. The choice was good! Maybe a little bit cream was fat, but it was tasty. Also I drizzled sponge with cherry compote. For 6 people the cake was too big, so leftovers I freezed and now I can enjoy it with the afternoon coffee 🙂
View FullChicken Piccata
I adore lemon in all dishes, maybe except in yeasted buns 🙂 And I am very happy that my family feels the same. Long time ago I prepared chicken Piccata by Forelle recipe. This was also great, just there is sauce more and lemon more 🙂 I guess the best would be the combination of my and Forelle recipes – more sauce and lemon juice in moderation.
View FullJapanese chicken
Very delicious chicken. We prepared if a few times but it was very hard to take photos. The first time I overcooked the chicken but glaze was thicker. The second time I cooked less but the glaze was thin. So I think the best would be to cook chicken (not over cook), then take it out and cook liquid to prepare good glaze 🙂 Anyway, both times it was delicious supper for my family.
View FullPuff pastry stripes with sprinkles
It’s more the idea than a recipe. But the good one if you have some sprinkles leftovers. And what I liked more – they are just a little bit sweet.
View FullChicken in the cream and paprika sauce
One more easy and simple, as a lot of others, chicken dishes. I decided to try something new, because I”m a little bit tired to prepare chicken in a cream sauce and all the time overeat. This recipe is a little bit similar, just new seasons gives the new taste. And really don’t remember, we overate or didn’t 🙂
View FullCream waffles
When I found this recipe I was so exited that baked them a few weekends for breakfast. Cream makes them frangible and even when they are cold they stay very tasty. I bake half of the portion but it’s enough for two kids and two parents for the light breakfast. I really recommend you!
View FullCottage cheese bake with vanilla pudding
We just love cottage cheese. But in the long time we were tired of the same cottage cheese bake. So when I found this recipe I knew I have to bake it – I have pudding mix packet bought long time ago. It is really a good way to use it. My kids loved it. And I prepared half of the recipe, but soon I had to repeat it 🙂
View FullBanana zucchini muffins
Author: Aušra Date: 2012-01-26 Banana makes these muffins smell very nice and zuchhini gives moisture. The good thing that you can use freezed grated zucchini (just squeeze the juice very good). Banana zucchini muffins Time …
View FullBuns with cottage cheese
I bake these buns everytime I have some cottage cheese left and want something sweet but at the same time simple. And the next day I just love to warm them a few seconds in the microwave – then they smell like newly baked. Really good!
View FullGranola with honey
Granola that smells honey, but very crunchy and addictive like sunflowers. Everytime I prepare it, half of it I eat alone – without milk, just like crunchy cookies. Even my hubby loved it, just honey is not recommended for him, so next time I will prepare it with golden syrup instead of honey. And I like this granola without any mix-ins!
View FullChocolate peanut butter smoothie
When I want something sweet but healthy at the same time – I blend smoothies. My kids adore them 🙂 Maybe that’s why all the time I keep a few frozen bananas in the fridge.
View FullEnchiladas with beetroot filling
Nice snack or light lunch. I prepared it long time ago, but when I remember mild taste of beetroot I feel good. And that’s why it deserves to be in my blog 🙂
View FullChicken, marinated in a sweet chilli sauce
We love chicken, but it’s very hard to find good chicken marinade to bake it on the grill. And know I know that it’s not the fault of the recipes, it’s because we a lot of time overbake it. The last time we baked chicken on the grill I was walking around the grill and watched that no one overbaked it 🙂 I looked strange, but… what can we do if we want to taste food good 🙂
View FullMinced meat cakes with potatoes
This dish is very practical 🙂 It’s suitable for festive gatherings, because it doesn’t require a lot of time for preparing and everythings are baked at one time. All you need is only salads. We all agreed that we will prepare it again and again.
View FullTortilla
We just love tortillas. I tried this recipe more than once. Every time disappears very quickly, because my kids and me just eat them warm plain. My hubby doesn’t adore pastry, but he enjoys eating tortillas with some filling. So I really recommend to try – it’s simple, quick and better one hundred time than store bought.
View FullCauliflower and broccoli bake
This meal is for cauliflower lovers 🙂 One of them is my little daughter. The other – me 🙂 The fact that my daughter ate this dish the next day too, shows that it is very delicious 🙂 Only I used only cauliflowers, but believe that with broccoli the taste would be great also.
View FullCherry cake
Before baking this case, I couldn’t decide – it’s a cake or a pie. But when I baked it no questions were left – it’s really a cake and the good one. Crispy top, tender egg while layer and sour cherries makes very good combination. But if you are afraid of sour cherries, you can use preserved cherries. The next time egg white layer I will make smaller or will use bigger cake form (now I used 24cm). I know, the photos are horrible, but I had to do some photos in a rush, because I try to bake less sweets and the next time this cake will be baked after long time.
View FullCorn salads
This salads were prepared by my kids 🙂 And it’s simple but really goods. Tomatoes and cucumber gives freshness, and potatoes – satiety. My kids ate without onions, because they were the chefs 🙂 But for adults I recommend to add onion springs.
View FullChicken, marinated in yoghurt
I looked for good chicken marinate for a long time. And when i finally tried this, I knew that this is what I was looking for. First time we baked on the grill chicken chunks on skewers and it was delicious. The next time I prepared chicken roasts and I think I over baked and the meat was a little bit too dry. But I know what I did wrong and the next time I will do everything good 🙂 And for sure I will prepare this marinate more than one more time.
View FullChicken and rice stew with chanterelles
At first glance it seems that it is simple pilaf with chicken. But lemon and hot chilli sauce gives spicy taste to the dish. I prepared it already two times: first – without mushrooms, because my hubby was at home, the second – with mushrooms, because I was all alone 🙂 Both times it was delicious. Don’t know about other kids, by mine don’t like spicy dishes, so I didn’t even asked to taste 🙂
View FullSourdough rye bread
I bake this bread more then a year. But as always, the best recipes hardly reach the blog 🙂 Because I bake it very often and know all ingredients in my head. This bread is perfect. Really 🙂 After founding this bread I don’t buy any bread at store. Or maybe just in big gatherings when I don’t have time to bake more of this bread. 🙂
View FullWild strawberries with sour milk
Quick and easy drink or dessert. I made it for kids and they liked it a lot. It’s a pity that these berries were the last in our garden.
View FullPie with chanterelles
When I got some chanterelles, I decided to bake this year something new. And because I know how convenient to take non-sweet pies for lunch at work, I chose this recipe. Only in original recipe says to use more salt then I usually need, so I give here already corrected recipe.
View FullCheesecake with almonds and blueberries
This cake is really simple. Only the base is very crumbly. Next time I will add a little bit more butter. But… maybe it”s because I used not oat cookies but shortbread cookies. My hubbe even frightened me – took one bite and moved plate toward me… The first thought – he didn”t like it. BUT I was very happy when he asked to put MORE! 🙂
View FullSardine pâté
The tastiest pâté for my family. After I prepare this pâté, the others became not suitable for us 🙂 I think this is becaus of lemon given freshness. Just don’t put lemon juice too much. We lowered the amount of them, and we can’t get enough of this.
View FullBrinza cheese bake
When I saw brinza in a store, I bought it without thinking. But it rested in a fridge for a while. Then I searched my recipe archive and found one recipe with this cheese. So I prepared this dish the same day. My hubby liked it, even a lot 🙂 Children ate a lot too, so I think they liked it too. The taste reminded us stewed curd lasybones, which we like the same as marmots 🙂 The next day I sliced left overs and fried with a little bit butter in a pan. Kids liked it too. So I think this recipe has full right to be in my blog 🙂
