I am not a vegetarian but thought I would try this and was surprised how good it was, one day without meat, give it a go.

Wanted pasta but not a lot of sauces with sausage.got the boys to eat spinach.

My students find this to be a Challenge but rewarding. It is all about temperature control and not over stirring or under stirring.It takes 20-25 minutes....ish for the rice to cook.

Friends, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite go to lunch idea – creamy basil pasta! As you know we are a large family; therefore, I love preparing simple dishes that are very tasty and filling, but most of all quick. I must say that my all time favorite lunch for the kids is the creamy basil pasta. The combination of fresh tomatoes with basil and the cream cheese is simply devine! It takes approximately twenty minutes to put together which gives your kiddos plenty of time to sit down and enjoy this delicious meal.

This one takes a while but another one of my Grandma's delicious recipes!!!

Hi everyone, the sun is finally out, and we are able to sit in the garden. Since it is that time of year again to start planting new flowers, I had the chance this morning to look at the garden and see what it is I want to plant. I do love gardening, plus I love growing my own vegetables, so, I have decided to invest in a small elevated off-ground garden, to plant the seeds for my vegetables. 🙂Due to a heavy snow storm we had in the Netherlands about 3 years ago, the previous one I had broke into pieces, and I never purchased another one since. That is why I am very excited about this, and can’t wait to get started.Walking back into the kitchen from the garden, I knew I wanted to make a dish with pasta. I have made this dish many times before, very simple, it is basically a throw it all together bake and eat dish. 🙂

All about those one pot meals and less dishes :)

Suffed shells without the mess. I like stuff pasta shells but not a fan or f making them , so i came up with this. This is just like one of my other pasta bakes dishes only different is I change the pasta noodles and added ricotta cheese to it....

I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out but I gave it a shot and grabbed all the veggies out of my fridge, too lazy to go out in the cold in NYC and came up with this soup. Surprisingly it is quite good, and I am usually not a big fan of vegetable soups! I recommend this recipe :)

The recipe itself I got from the Gino De campo cookbook but is doing it slightly different as we are having a bit of both cheeses in the lasagna so chedder then on top will add the parmesan my father said why not have one side chedder and one side parmesan cheese lol so thought will have a go at it

My husband needs to go on a very low carb diet. He chose Atkins. Now I am learning to cook a little differently. This was a great substitute for a normal pasta/potato side. Very easy, quick and tasty.

I am tired of mayonnaise and salad mixed. Inspired by the Cacio e Pepe / cheese and pepper recipe a superb delicious recipe I have fallen in love with. I made this as an experiment. It is so very delicious.
