Once more: brussels sprouts. I prefer this dish very much in the cold season of the year.
Instead of the shallot I add leek sometimes. Turkey steaks are a good option to the chicken breasts, too.
Enjoying delicious food. Best without regrets and easy to cook. That is what I am looking for every single day.
If you eat the LOGI way or Paleo or you just prefer a moderate intake of carbohydrates and/or healthier choices of carbs, here you will certainly find something suitable, too. (Who will not give up on potatoes, noodles, etc. simply add those.)
I certainly will not forget to fill "Baking" as well as "Treat and Nibble" with recipes!
As I avoid carbs from e.g. legumes and rice at dinner and also grains in the morning, maybe the category "Breakfast" will offer you surprising options.
Note:
Usually my recipes are made for two. (Leftovers will be eaten later.) I use almost exclusively top and bottom heat for the preparation in the oven.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Red Onions
Brussels sprouts… not everybody’s favorite produce. But maybe you give this recipe a try. It is an absolutely easy recipe. It goes with everything from yogurt to meat. Or just without.
Almond Poppy-Seed Loaf Cake
I like loaf cakes. This one is definitely one of my favorites and I can have it at breakfast with some berries, too. Absolutely! Besides you can keep this loaf cake quite a while.
Herbed Veal Chops
Who likes veal I guess will like these chops. I found the recipe at MarthaStewart.com, too. And this I did not change. Very delicious!
Butternut Squash
Nothing easier than preparing a butternut squash. The shell is so soft that you can remove it with a peeler. Halve the squash lengthwise, remove the kernels, prep the flesh as needed.
Nutty Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts… it is a vegetable that – I would say – is not the most popular one. Even I was not such a huge fan of it. Then I had second thoughts because of some interesting recipes I found. So I gave the Brussels sprouts a second chance. Good decision. The following recipe is not time-consuming and convinced me by the use of mustard, too.
Hazelnut Cookies
These cookies are winners for me because you will only need few ingredients and they are not time-consuming until you can enjoy them. Preparing the hazelnut meal by yourself means you will need more time. But at the end the cookies will be more tasty and will smell incredible. So delicious.
Pumpkin Bread with Sage
More pumpkin because it is in season. And I will not miss to try as much recipes as I can. This pumpkin bread I would say is the best I tested, even if it tastes more like a cake.
Muscat Pumpkin Puree
I prepare muscat pumpkin puree frequently to freeze it. I usually freeze 1 cup per box. So I will always have pumpkin puree at hand to bake pancakes, cakes, bread or so. Thaw the puree completely before using.
Black Bean Patties
As I prefer carbs from legumes instead from grains I always search for different ways of preparation.
I can have these patties for breakfast already, preferably with some plain yogurt. Anyway these patties work well with a lot of foods.
Acorn Squash Puree
The puree works well for soups. But I like it best as a little dessert.
In squash season I prepare a couple of servings and freeze them. So I can make use of the puree after season, too.
Cacao Tea
From time to time I prefer a cacao tea when I have the need for some chocolate. In this case I like to prepare it by myself instead of using a ready to use tea bag.
Roasted Savoy Cabbage and Leek
A surprising combination which I prefer to serve with fish. Who does not like the taste of cardamom just skips it. You will not miss it because this mixture is tasty without, too.
Chicken Salad with fresh Cherries and Feta Dressing
Tasty and light. Just as a summer salad should be. It is a delicious combination of sweet cherries, crunchy nuts, fresh salad and a cheese dressing. Enjoy!
Sweet Potato Sticks
Unfortunately they will not be that crisp if prepared in the oven. Anyway… they are yummy. I really, really like these!
