5-Ingredient Chili Noodles with Zucchini and Parmesan

November 24, 2016 by Cris Leave a Comment

If you’re looking for a delicious, easy-to-make noodle/spaghetti (you name it) and very fast recipe to add to your weekly recipes rotation, you gotta try this chili noodles with zucchini and parmesan in a garlic sun-dried tomatoes sauce. And it requires literally 15 minutes to get it done so you don’t have to waste the rest of the night in the kitchen (Btw, I hate doing that!).

The mix of all flavors is so delicious that you will be tempted to eat it right out of the pan. Go ahead. I did that, too….

Kidney Bean and Beef BBQ Burgers

September 12, 2015 by Cris 2 Comments

Holy YUM!!! Now that’s what I am calling a super delicious dose of protein. :)

Good morning everyone! It’s 7.30 am in Germany and I’ve already stuffed my face with one BIG kidney bean and beef bbq burger. Oh yeah, believe it!

Sometimes I also ask myself (you’re not the only one!) – How come I am not normal – however, I always end up finding myself the perfect excuse that we are all different and what means normal, anyway??? :)) And on top of that I am not following any trend in terms of food choices. If my body wants one or two juicy beef burgers, he is going to get it/them. That’s how it works, especially when you run at least 60 km a week, in my opinion!…

This Brussels sprouts, pomegranate seeds and goji berries salad served with prawns curry makes for a perfect dinner this month – just light enough not to knock you down quickly, but spiced enough from the prawns to awaken your appetite and more … :) And guess what, it requires about 10 minutes to get it done so you don’t have to waist your rest of the night in the kitchen.

So are you already a brussels sprouts enthusiast or not? :) If you are not yet one of us, that only means that you just haven’t had them prepared the easiest way nor did you try my favorite brussels sprouts salad of all times – tender Brussels Sprouts, White Beans and Almond Flakes – such an irresistible flavor….

Sweet Drunk Mussels

October 17, 2014 by Cris Leave a Comment

Succulent and sweet … and one of the quickest shellfish preparations.

A few days ago I wrote about my embarrassing moment at the local farmer’s market and how I ended up having to buy fennel for the rest of the year. If you haven’t found time to read it, here it is – Give fennel a chance with this recipe.

When I first tried to cook mussels – following an old-fashioned recipe from the Internet – steamed mussels in a white wine, onions and parsley sauce, I realized that the most promised part, sweetness was kind of missing….
