Good morning to all the future chefs,

I love pasta. Spaghetti, maccaroni, penne and every other noodle on the planet. It is something I can´t get enough of and I could eat two times a day, every day. That is why I am shying away from it a little and only sometimes cook pasta at home. But then I go all in with my favorite ingredients and a glass of vino.

Serving this meal makes you look like a pro as you can beautifully drape it on the plate. Also the flavours of the pesto, the shrimps and the parmesan cheese go so well with the pine nuts. Overall a super quick meal to make. Takes 20 minutes max. and so

 Ingredients:
– shrimps (I buy them frozen and marinated but you can also use fresh ones)
– spaghetti
– pine nuts
– parmesan cheese
– green pesto

 – brown the shrimps in a pan until crisp
– boil hot water in a pot and add spaghetti – let cook for about 10 minutes or how you like it)
– sieve cooked spaghetti and add to the shrimps
– add pesto and let it cook on low heat for about 10 minutes
– take another pan and roast the pine nuts (the taste is better and more intense if you do that but don´t leave the pan as this happens very fast)
– serve on pretty pasta plates and sprinkle with the roasted pine nuts and grated parmesan cheese

I really enjoy the simplicity and versatility of pasta recipes. You could easily eat a different dish for the rest of your lives.


Are you also a pasta fan like I am or are you more on the rice side of life?

Happy Friday guys and welcome back to my blog,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung-Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

I am all about enjoying a glass of rosé or red after a day of work or on the weekend. Since I have always liked wine more than any other alcohol (no fan of beer and I totally hate all the hard liquors) I have a few brands I am loving and buying over and over again. The Gallo Family for example has all the wines from white to red we love. 

Florian is preferring a glass of white over any other but he doesn´t mind drinking a sip of red with me. The Gallo wine group is the largest exporter of California wines so there is one for every adult in our family.

Ingredients:
This is an all-in batter – one of my absolute favorites.


– 100 gr. bacon, diced
– 100 gr. chopped scallions
– 150 ml milk
– 80 ml rape oil
– 1 egg 
– 220 gr. of flour
– 1 teaspoon of salt
– 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda
– 2 teaspoons tomato spice (this is all I add but you are free to take whatever you like)


I got the silicone mini bundt cake baking form (better to remove them single afterwards) 
Put one tablespoon of batter into the


Bake for 28 to 30 minutes at a 180° degrees.


If you want you can them enjoy warm as well.

I am sharing my most requested recipe with you today. As simple as it is as quick is it eaten at any ocassion I make it. Sometimes it´s the easy things guys. These soft little rolls filled with herb butter and topped with delicious parmesan cheese will make you addicted.
I always buy the Knack & Back (Pillsbury) six rolls in one. Just throw them in the oven and bake for about 12 minutes or fill and sprinkle them with cheese for a delighted side dish.

Ingredients:
– 2 rolls with each 6 rolls
– 1 stick of herb butter
– 1 cup of parmesan cheese

– fill the middle of the rolls with half a teaspoon herb butter
– spread olive oil in your baking dish
– put your filled rolls into it and sprinkle with plenty of parmesan cheese

 Pretty easy am I right. The perfect side dish for a BBQ, a picnic or just as snack.

Food Friday – awesome summer noodle salad Italian style…


….



Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)

we love Summer BBQ´s and since our patio is ready we are constantly outside playing with Chloe, drinking our coffee outside, dining or having a glass of wine and also heating up the grill. This means I am on the search for new recipes to add to grilled meat or fish almost everytime we plan a BBQ.


A noodle salad is never a bad idea. No matter for what or when you are making one. There are also thousands of options like for pasta dishes in general. I made this Italian inspired noodle salad my mum loves to prepare too so I am sharing the recipe here today.


Ingredients:
– 1 cup of black olives
– 1 cup of mini mozzarella
– noodles (cooked, mine are maccaroni)
– 1 cup of artichokes
– 1 cup of pesto red


– cook the maccaroni and let them cool down
–  put everything together and stir until well combined
– eat


This delicious noodle salad takes about 30 minutes to make and is an awesome option for your own BBQ´s or for the ones you are invited too.


So for now I am leaving you with this easy recipe and some inspiration for your next BBQ and wishing you the happiest weekend.
