Easter cookies
Who doesn’t love all those cookies at Christmas? But Christmas is always so far away, so why wait when you can just bake Easter cookies! My children always actively support me, whether kneading dough, cutting out biscuits or, of course, decorating. And obviously eating the decoration. Teamwork, so to speak. For my Easter cookies (or …
Rocket Cashew Pesto
Have you ever eaten a Rocket cashew pesto? Highly Recommended! Pesto is just so versatile, it’s just awesome. You can use it as a spread, in a risotto or simply with spaghetti and fresh Parmesan cheese. Splendid. A delicious and vegetarian dinner for meat free Mondays 🙂 Love it.

German red cabbage
There is a side dish that actually always works in classic German cuisine—red cabbage! We always like to serve this classic side dish over the holidays and after and we like it best with beef roulades or with Christmas goose. It is really important that you start to prepare the red cabbage the day before. …
Caesar Salad Dressing
Who doesn’t like a Caesar salad? One of the few salads I could eat forever! If you know someone, please try this recipe. I’m sure that will convince even the last sceptic.

Tomato Sauce- a family favourite!
I love Pasta! And nothing beats Spaghetti with a homemade Tomato Sauce! That’s it. I could eat it all day and every day. Like my kids. However, they only wanted it plain with Parmesan. Well, my daughter at least. Two years ago she started to eat pasta with tomato sauce! Woo-hoo! WIN WIN! But as …
Sandwich Bread- super easy to make!
There are days where I run out of Sandwich Bread for two reasons: I just love to eat a sandwich for lunch and I forgot to buy bread (again) I tried a new sandwich recipe and now my kids eat away the bread… If number 2 is the case with you as well- enjoy my …
