Roast Chicken with Fresh Thyme and Rosemary
I love, love, love roast chicken. I do not love to clean the oven afterwards. But that chicken is worth it! It is easily prepared. The flavor of the herbs and the lemon…delicious!
Quick Spaghetti Squash with Rosemary and Dried Tomatoes
This is my quick spaghetti squash recipe if I am short in time. But – yes, there is a “but” – the spaghetti squash should be thawed already. During the squash season I freeze one or two roasted spaghetti squashes as I usually don’t need a whole one. So I thaw the leftovers when needed.
Roasted Butternut Squash and Chicken with Sage
I often use butternut squash because it is just easy to prepare. You can peel it with a peeler. This is no effort at all.
Be careful with the sage if you do not know whether you like the taste or not. In this case I would say: Less is more.
Roasted Delicata Squash with Sage and Rosemary
Roasted delicata squash has a nice, not too sweet taste. I like to serve it with Greek yogurt combined with lime juice and dried mint. It goes very well with the delicata! Yum!
Pumpkin Soup with Coconut Milk and Ginger
Pumpkin in season… various shapes, colors and ways to prep. Of course I serve a pumpkin soup! Again: easy to make ahead and to freeze.
Hokkaido Stuffed with Mushrooms
As I couldn’t find an organic acorn squash I decided for Hokkaido. And I skip the rice from the original recipe. For me a perfect choice.
Roast Beef
Right after I cooked and tasted this roastbeef, I decided that this is one of my favorites. It is that yummy! Easy to cook, and not time-consuming. And it smells! Unbelievable. Well, it is obvious I am a huge fan of meat.
Roasted Eggplants with Thyme
Unsophisticated, nonetheless very delicious. Tasty eggplants are crucial here. Goes well with Greek yogurt – if you are short in time. Meat or fish match well, too.
Chicory-Pear-Salad with Feta and Hazelnuts
As soon as autumn is showing up I start thinking about this salad. No matter which season: If you can buy delicious pears this salad is always a good choice.
Broccoli with Lemon Zest and Lime Juice
It is a kind of an allrounder. This broccoli goes well with fish or meat. If you wish enjoy it just as it is. The ingredients depend on the guests you have or how hungry you are. It is a summery broccoli!
Rhubarb Salad with Feta, Fennel and Nuts
Such a light and easy to prepare summer salad. As the delicious rhubarb is just in season… do not miss this salad! (By the way, pear is a tasty alternative for the rhubarb.)
“Potato Salad” from White Beans
The idea to replace potatoes with white beans sounded good immediately. Recipe tested. Labeled with “tasty”. No need to keep it as a secret.
As you can easily and in no time prepare this salad and also store it in the fridge, this salad could be for your lunchbox. Enjoy your meal!
Eggs Something Different
Even the egg does not have to have the same look every day. These egg muffins will be a nice variation on your plate. Of course you can use other molds, too.
Cucumber Melon Salad with Fresh Herbs
Here comes something fresh for hot, sticky summer days! I love this very refreshing salad from cucumber and watermelon a lot. It is done in a couple of minutes. That it makes even more favorable.
