Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – adverstising. Hello … I’m back from an almost 5-weeks-break resp. time-out resp. downtime or whatever-you-may-call-it. 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. (It didn’t matter that we are living in Corona times – Xmas & family challenges didn’t slow down. Only New Year’s Eve…

Also in my pantry there were some potatoes … & in my freezer I had some frozen peas. In each case it wasn’t so much … not enough for whatever … So I decided to make a real big batch of mixed vegetables! Next morning when…

At first I thought about scrambled eggs or baked eggs… however, these have to be prepared fresh from the scratch. If you try to enjoy a breakfast w/ friends (or a brunch) as a host it’s always better to prepare everything in advance. A frittata can be prepared 1 day before – no problem at all. You…
Dieser Beitrag enthält Werbung – advertising. I went shopping & I came back w/ vegetables. Before starting for my weekly shopping adventure at my trusted food store I remembered a recipe for a vegetable curry on Chocolate & Zucchini – and decided to give it a try. At 1st there were vegetables… Generally I’m no friend of leftovers concerning bare ingredients – I always try to use everything I buy especially when buying for…
