Салат из авокадо и манго

Egg-free, Gluten-free, Healthomania, Lactose-free, Vegan, Vegetables, Salads

Бывает, что в моей коллекции появляются “позаимствованные” или “подсмотренные” рецепты. Сегодняшний салат как раз из этой оперы.

И вот на этом столе я обнаружила настоящую жемчужину! И настолько простую, что сама не …

Мясные шарики с рисом

Main dishes, Lunch-box

Я не люблю жарить котлеты – жир брызгает, масло подгорает итд. Поэтому я нашла способ их приготовления, который ближе мне по душе. Да и времени он занимает гораздо меньше. Я запекаю котлеты в духовке. А на потребности детей размеры обычной котлеты у нас уменьшились до формы маленького шарика. Отсюда и рецепт.  [yumprint-recipe id=’63’]

Овсяные блинчики из каши с яблоком

Pancakes, mini-pies, muffins, Lunch-box

После завтрака у меня осталась овсяная каша, сваренная на молоке. Выбрасывать её мне воспитание не разрешает – не люблю переводить продукты. Поэтому я придумала, как можно её использовать. Ну а если каши нет, то предлагаю похожие блинчики из овсяных хлопьев – Овсяные блинчики с яблоком.  [yumprint-recipe id=’62’] 

Овсяные блинчики с яблоком

Pancakes, mini-pies, muffins, Lunch-box

Ну сколько можно есть овсяную кашу на завтрак. Мы ж не англичане :). Хотя по правде говоря эта каша гораздо чаще гостит на наших столах, чем в стране Биг Бэна. А виновайца всему на отечественный Шерлок Холмс, а точнее Доктор Ватсон и другие фильмы советского периода, где овсяная каша просто главенствовала на английском столе. Так …

Meat salad in apples

New Year! This is a special holiday for me. And every time I, like a little girl, wait for gifts under the Christmas tree from Santa Claus. After all, faith works miracles. The more we believe in something, the faster our desire will come true. When I’m in such a festive mood, I take great …

Beetroot and herring salad in eggs

Often inspiration draws its roots from completely unrelated things, objects, people or spheres.

Knishes with buckwheat were very characteristic …
