We made our Hamburger soup with ground beef and, of course, with tomatoes (cubed and paste). Sweet corn and carrots also found their way into our soup. We ended up with a thick hearty and nourishing dish which can very well be regarded as the main course, too.
When it comes to topping and upgrading your daily toast, it’s so easy to get creative! You can follow your own imagination or you can top the roasted slices of bread with fried sardines and with a mildly sweet mixture of capers and onion. Your choice. Did we mention the mustard and the mayo?
This warm salad has pretty much everything in it: meat and cereals, greenies and legumes. Therefore, you should try and use one of the largest bowls in your kitchen. These quantities are for 3 servings. Eat responsibly.
How about grilling a few blackfin tuna steaks? Then pan-cook some onion, pancetta, and couscous together with crunchy and super-healthy crumbled pistachios. Finish by baking the fried fish on a bed of flavored and enhanced couscous. Is this a winner, or what?
In the mood for a hearty dessert? Let’s try the milk rice pudding. It’s a classic. Only this time we want to upgrade big time. This is why we’ll top it not only with sweetened strawberries but also with an irresistible rhubarb and red wine sauce.
You only need 10 minutes to assemble a couscous salad that is both meaty and fruity. Give couscous 7 minutes to soak, then mix it with the pulled chicken. This time we’ll go all the way on the citrus path and toss one wedged juicy orange, then drizzle everything with a lemony orange dressing.
Braising meat can be a somehow tedious job for some of us, but the tender end-result is worth the wait. We urge you to sear, then cook a few beef shanks in white wine, then toss them in a pan with mushrooms and heavy cream. Then you’ll understand.
Baby octopus cooked in fish stock and red wine then boiled some more together with canned tomatoes. Don’t you feel the sea breeze already? Erm … whether you do, or you don’t, it’s not important. Just try this.
We’ve made this warm salad with beans in mind. Well, red beans, green beans, yellow beans, and snap peas, to be more precise. Whether you’ll serve it as a vegan salad or as a side dish, that’s entirely your choice.
If you’re guessing these meatballs have a certain Asian touch, then you’re right. You’ll be using upgraded pork mince, one mixed with carrot, celery, bell pepper, and panko breadcrumbs. You’ll be serving these meatballs covered in a creamy mildly sweet tomato sauce. And what better side-dish for these guys than rice?
How do you drink your coffee? Or your hot chocolate, or your tea, for that matter? We ask you because these dairy-free muffins are perfect with each one of these. You don’t trust us? Ask the bananas, oat bran, and almond milk!
Whether you’re OK with naming these oven-baked goodies “fritters”, it’s not important. What is important is that they’re scrumptious and nutritious and they’re perfect for breakfast or as a starter. Thanks to their broccoli, zucchini, eggs, and Cheddar content.
