Food Friday – healthy fingerfood – zucchini dippers…
Super easy. You only need 4 main ingredients and the spices you like.
Ingredients:
– 1 1/2 cups zucchini (grated)
– 1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used parmesan)
– 2 eggs
– 1 cup bread crumbs
– spices as you like
– grate zucchini with a kitchen grater on the smallest side
– be sure to get as much water out of the grated zucchini. Works best with a kitchen towel or paper towels
– press hard against to soak up as much as possible
– put all the ingredients together and mix
– make little tots out of the batter (I used a tablespoon for portioning to get the sizes equal)
– put on a baking sheet and bake at 170° degrees until golden and slightly crisp on the outside
– serve on plate with different dips (mine where garlic and chilli from the BBQ section of our local supermarket)
Any guesses who will win the Soccer World Cup ?
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
Travel Diary Lago Di Garda – Part 2 – Day 3 and 4….
After buying a bunch of stuff at the market we decided to get into Bardolino itself to get a drink and something to eat but this was by far more exhausting than I thought since it was a hot day and everyone wanted to have a refreshing drink.
It was also our first time to get some ice-cream. I got a scoop of pistacchio but it wasn´t as good as I thought.
The rest of the day was spent by the pool and trying on all of my fashion finds.
In the evening we drove over to Peschiera del Garda which was only about three minutes away. We walked a little along the boardwalk until we got hungry and searched for a restaurant. We ate at the Bellavista restaurant a little outside of the city and the food was delicious.
I had a Cesar´s Salad and Florian ate a pizza. The Aperol Spritz we ordered where huge. I would always go for wine and aperitifs restaurants offer on their menu since they are the affordable drinks. Beer is really pricey in Italy but also who wouldn´t enjoy a glass of red to his pasta or pizza or a glass of white with the fish over a beer.
After our dinner we headed into the city. It is a really nice city with little bridges and lots of flowers. The main restaurants and the main life takes place around the canals inside of the city wall.
I have also found a cute shop where I got an awesome Valentino handbag dupe for a really good price and also such a beautiful black jumpsuit which makes me want to ditch all my LBD´s.
It really doesn´t matter which city you are visiting they are all unique and pretty in their own way.
Here are the other posts of this trip so far:

An afternoon at Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and outfit details…
it is Monday again and I don´t know what to think. The weekend was great. I got so much work done (redecorated and decluttered our bathroom), tried some new recipes, shot blog photos and also visited a lot of people. So Monday hit me like a hurricane with all this back to work crap.
As you may remember, we had been to Lake Garda in Italy about three weeks ago and we also went to Milan by train for one day. Milan really is an intense city with so many impressions and all the huge and historical buildings. It didn´t disapoint.
The photos above where taken at Galleria Vittorio Emanule II (read my Milan post here), an incredible luxurious shopping centre with marble floors and a glass ceiling.
You can find stores like Louis Vuitton and Prada in there but also several restaurant and they also have two rooftop bars with view to the dome, one from Campari and one from Aperol. I wanted to go up for a drink but after eight hours of exploring we where really tired and just wanted to go home.
The look I am wearing in the picutres above is my interpretation of a casual day as an Italian women wearing a pair of culottes, a cute t-shirt, a straw hat and a chic hand bag.
Meanwhile I turned to a real culotte lover, I own several pairs and like to wear them all. They are super comfortable and in my opinion enormous flattering and oh so chic. So easy to dress them up with a pair of heels and a cute button down or to dress them down with flats and a t-shirt like I did.
I really hope your day started better than mine. Anyways thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
