straight tomato cannelloni

Some time ago I made simple cannelloni – simple classic cannelloni w/ meat & tomato sauce & melted cheese on top. I think it isn’t anything fancy with these cannelloni: there are no extraordinary ingredients (e. g. special rare Italian cheese or so), there are no modern add-ons (e. g. any gluten-free pasta or so) … or whatever!

Mid of December I decided spontaneously to have a long break over the years to relax, to think about my blogging, to plan the next year … & of course manage Xmas stress.

roulade w/ mediterranean touch

Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising.   It’s summer time. All people think about BBQ dreaming of perfect sausages & steaks – or whatever. Also substantial or less substantials salads are in vogue. Nobody thinks about a roast … in a kitchen … needing long hours … However, I bought a beef package (100% organic) processed from happy cows somewhere in Bavaria weeks ago. All portions went straight in our freezer. Amongst others there were…
