Cheese Stuffed Chicken Sandwich

A four course dinner or a well prepared huge sandwich, they are equally valuable to me. As long as it is rich in its ingredients, a sandwich makes a great lunch or dinner. I like to have a sandwich especially on busy days like the one I had today. The best thing was that, my husband made the sandwich and I ate it, but of course I couldn’t help taking its photos and asking my hubby for the recipe. Don’t worry, I’m going to share his cheese stuffed chicken sandwich recipe with you. He says he ... continue reading...

No Crust Potato Pizza

Actually this is not a pizza recipe, but it looks so much like mini pizza bites that I had to call the recipe no crust potato pizza.

I don’t know why, but I spent the whole night reading articles called “5 ways white flour is harmful to you” or “7 negative effects of refined flour” and so on. Then I decided to give up blogging:) Blogging without flour is really difficult, but after some brainstorming I concluded that it ... continue reading...

Spinach Quiche

We still remember how yummy the spinach bacon quiche we ate on our trip to Italy was. The crust, the filling and the parmesan on the top made it so scrumptious. It made a perfect brunch for us. The chef of the bakery near our hotel was in the business for about 50 years. We insisted a lot to get the recipe, or even a few tips, but he didn’t do that. So we decided to figure out how he made it and ended up with our spinach quiche recipe. First, we wanted this to be vegetarian recipe so we ... continue reading...

Sausage Caprese Penne

Originated in Italy about 1000 years ago, pasta has become one of the most common foods around the world with countless international adaptations.

A simple loaf of bread turns into a great sandwich with just a few fillings. Some salami, some cheese, some greens (or purples) and a sauce you fancy, that’s all. As an avocado addict, with a simple sauce I made this avocado French bread sandwich recipe, and they were really yummy. Finally it’s March and you can feel the changes in the nature. The weather is getting milder, some of the trees are slowly turning green heralding the start of the picnic season, and picnic means sandwiches to me. ... continue reading...
