Cherry-Berry-Choco Muffins
I couldn’t imagine a better way to close the blogging year with these amazing muffins (or cupcakes, if you wish). I always use the same basic recipe, only changing the ‘extras’ like fruits, dried fruits, chocolate, spices, etc. Feel free to adjust the amounts! My all time favourite is the apple-cinnamon version, but this one … Continue reading
Mom’s Meat Balls
This is another treasure from my mom’s recipes – fantastic in its simplicity. You can basically use any kind of ground meat, even leftover roast chicken (the best, in my opinion!), lately I use ground beef for steak tartare – I found it results in very tender meatballs. Mom’s Meatballs or ‘Anyukám Fasírtja’ Ingredients: 250g … Continue reading
Orange-Garlic Chicken
This simple chicken recipe is a great way to put a festive meal on the table (not only on holidays). I did it already 2 times – this and last Christmas, and depending on the size of your chicken and the hunger of the people around the table, it can easily satisfy around 4 tummies. … Continue reading
Braised Red Cabbage
This yummy thing was a side dish with our December 25th dinner – accompanying a tender orange-garlic chicken (recipe coming soon) and simple mashed potatoes. I found it here and only had to make 1 or 2 small alterations to the recipe. Highly recommended dish : )) Ingredients: 1 kg red cabbage (I didn’t have a big … Continue reading

The jar is nothing else but an ex-jar of pickled gherkins (thoroughly washed to remove any remaining sticker and of course gherkin … Continue reading
Easy Awesome gingerbread
I simply love gingerbread – the freshly baked little cookies and the process of decorating them together adds so much to the Christmas mood. Unfortunately this year there won’t be any gingerbread baking around here as I managed to smash my main finger with a door… Still I would like to share the recipe I … Continue reading
Pasta Milanese alla mamma
This is another recipe from my mom – only a bit more “fitness”, she would normally add some bacon etc to pump up the taste, well we prefer the slimmer version. A very nice meal for pasta and tomato lovers! Ingredients: pasta (I normally use either spaghetti, penne, or fusilli) pork sausage onion ham mushrooms tomato … Continue reading
Hot chocolate in a jar
IMPORTANT please nobody tell my mother and little sister that this will be one of their Christmas presents : ) Though as my mother doesn’t speak English she will hardly understand this post and my little sister did not yet find my blog, we may have a chance they don’t find out about this surprise before … Continue reading
Knorr Lasagne Bolognese
Here comes another big favourite for those rainy (or any other) days, from an incredibly simple and fast recipe (that you can actually find on the packaging itself of the Knorr Lasagne Bolognese). Oh, Unilever does not pay me for this post :p Still so far I find this the most delicious lasagna when you … Continue reading
