Chicken Schnitzels with Green Beans - Fast, Tasty, Worth it
These little chicken schnitzels are definitely a recipe that runs on my side of the family. I remember my nonna (grandmother) and my making the schnitzels in these batches fit for kings. They were always so tasty, so juicy, that we would take turns distracting my mom or nonna so we could nick one or two before the meal started. Happy memories and one of the very first dishes I learnt to make. We all serve it with different sides, like salads, roast potatoes or even just as a sandwich. A personal favourite of mine is with green beans sauteed in butter and garlic.I adore this dish for other reasons too. As someone who suffers from chronic pain, I can find it hard to motivate myself to cook. This dish is so simple and easy that very little technique is required. Making it great for people with weakness and fatigue. Plus, if you are a beginner, it is a fantastic way to get into cooking without jumping into the deep end.So, without further delay let’s jump into this very easy and tasty meal.You can also follow the recipe here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?bhi=9GZ319QaXLU

Giant beans in the oven|plant based & vegan
This is a very traditional Greek recipe that I love. Can be done completely vegan if you are plant based and can use a vegan stock cube. You only have to soak the beans overnight and then can be done quickly. I make a big batch and have for a few days.#giantbeans #greekcuisine
