Zucchini muffins

I was very lazy last weekend and didn't cook much. But, I still had couple of zucchinis in my fridge (from south of France, proper bio quality :) ) and I decided to try the salty muffin idea, but without any flour. Here is the result and I must say, what a great idea! And there are really  no limits here, you can replace the zucchinis with aubergine or pumpkin, use different spices, different cheese etc. 

Cauliflower soup with gorgonozola

Today, yet another soup for cold winter days! Again, it is pretty thick, but that's because we like it this way. You can control the thickness by adding more/less liquid. Very healthy, quick, simple and tasty! (as always :) )

Pumpkin and coconut soup

I am a huge fan of pumpkins and I am really enjoying their season right now! :) I already showed you my favourite recipe for butternutsquash soup but that is not the only way. This recipe is full of flavours and the soup smells great! Actually, not only smells, also tastes! 

Salmon and vegetable soufflé

I guess everyone knows the typical ways how to prepare/cook a fish. But what about soufflé made of fish? I came across this great recipe (dont remember anymore where did I read it), and I thought, what a great idea! And it is not complicated, very refreshing and you can still move after having this for your lunch. 

Express Green Pea Soup

I promise you, this is going to be the fastest soup ever!!!! Probably it is not the most sophisticated recipe, but if you are craving for something warm AND tasty, and your fridge is empty, then this is the recipe for you (everyone has green peas in the freezer and pesto at home). 

Pikeperch (zander) with spinach cream

In my local supermarket they had beautiful and fresh pikeperch filets during the weekend (in German Zander) so the decision about our Sunday lunch was clear from the beginning. I believe that fish dont need many extras and I always prefer simple preparation which emphasises the taste of each ingredient. So here is my recipe for pikeperch and spinach cream. 

Healthy crêpes

The last weekend was full of new recipes and meals. As you probably noticed, the spelt flour is recently very 'in' and everyone says it's supposed to be healthier than normal flour. So I bought one 1kg and here is my version of healthy crêpes: 

St. Jacques Scallops and Avocado Salad

I personally prefer to eat seafood when I am on holidays somewhere near the beach. Since the closest beach to my home is around 600km away, I believe that the freshness of the products we can buy in our supermarkets is limited. That is the reason I almost never cook any seafood at home. (also to be honest I am not so good at it) But the last weekend was exceptional and I bought some fresh St. Jacques scallops and here is my creation. 

Butternut Squash Soup

Winter is slowly approaching (although we have still wonderful indian summer) but the soup season is almost here! So I am going to show you my recipe for the most favourite soup at my home - butternut squash soup. It is probably less typical than pumpkin, but basically it is almost the same. It has yellow to beige skin and orange pulp and in case you are still not convinced - it is a great source of fibre, vitamin C, manganese, magnesium and potassium. My soup is quick, easy, delicous and even great for healthy eaters. 

Carrot salad

As you probably noticed, lately I have been baking a lot... and someone has to eat it of course... so I noticed that my belly started to grow dangerously and decided to make a healthy break :) Here is ony my healthy dinner recipes, tasty and very well seasoned carrot salad. This portion will be sufficient for 2-3 people (depending on how much are they hungry :) ).

Fish & Chips

On Saturday was Fish&Chips day at my home :) so today I finally uploaded the pictures and I am going to present you my version of this delicious and often underestimated fastfood meal :) As I am not a huge fan of chips, I prepared this time these fantastic new potatoes (recipe is here: http://fait-a-la-maison.blogspot.ch/2014/09/new-potatoes-with-champignons.html only without champignons) as a side dish. Oh, and I forgot to mention my special touch - there is beer in the dough :) 

New potatoes with champignons

Another inspiration for a fast and delicous vegetarian dinner, using the seasonal products. I love the time of new potatoes and this is one of recipes I like :) a lot!! :)

Coleslaw

Today, I am going to share with you my most favourite salad in fast-food chains and my reproduction of it :) I tried to make it healthy, but there of course you are free to add some mayonnaise instead of yoghurt :) If you have a food processor - use it! It will save you loads of time!

Flammenkuchen

Flammenkuchen or if you want Alsace-pizza is one of my most favourite meals. We cook it very often for dinner because it is quick, easy, and most of all very tasty :) Well, if you love bacon and cheese, you need to try this recipe :)

Marinated chicken breast

Are you looking for a meal which is light and quickly done during these hot summer days? Chicken breast might not be the most original meat but with this marinade you will fall in love with it again :) Count around 1 hour for the marinade.

Duck breast with honey sauce

It's been a long time since the last recipe because I was away for a month or so --> on my honeymoon! :) We went to Singapore and Bali and of course took some cooking classes for traditional balinese dishes - very very tasty! I will provide you with recipes later on! But this time, lets do some duck!! Me, personally, I am not such a big fan of duck but this recipe got me! I think that duck goes well with sweet, although the sauce is not too sweet, because there is a little twist! Give it a try! :)

Spring chicken salad

Would you like something quick, refreshing and healthy? Here is my recipe for perfect spring salad with pieces of chicken. It is super easy and super delicious, with homemade dressing! Perfect for hot days, or just lunch on your terrace/balcony... It takes me around 10min.

Couscous with zucchini and champignons

Hello guys, I am back after short break with one of my most favourite recipes - couscous! I discovered couscous recently, I never knew any good recipes and one day I decided to change it! I was researching and researching on the internet till I finally came up with something, that could possibly work. And it did :) ! It is not super quick, as you would expect from couscous recipe, but definitely worth the time invested (count around 40-45min). With the ingredients, you will have enough for 4 people.
