I’ve made a few lunches for work, either in my little food-containers or in mr. Bento. It has worked pretty well for bringing my own food along, and making sure I eat enough. I received my new Laptop Lunchbox which will let me more easily transport my tasty burritos. It turned out smaller than I [...]
I've missed eating pizza since surgery. I did, a few times, but it only went well if I ate take-away pizza from one of those pizza places, not the kind I can buy in the supermarket. I could only eat 2 or 3 slices, and it seems a bit expensive to order in and only eat 1/4 of the pizza. It has to do with the dough, although I don't know the details of why it doesn't go well. Can't eat bread either, same problem. I get really ill.
Today I made a most excellent discovery. Gordita's (small, thicker tortilla wraps) work really well as a pizza-bottom. I tossed on some tomato sauce, chopped up veggies and mushrooms, added shredded cheese and popped the whole thing in the oven for 15 minutes.
Best pizza I ever had.
So I made another one just now. Two pizza's in one day. I like to spoil myself.
Gordita (small thick tortilla wrap), tomato sauce, veggies and cheese. 15 minutes in the oven. Tasty!
On the lookout for tasty easy snacks to make my life without a stomach a breeze, I happily stumbled over Kay’s foodblog. This Dutch Girl Cooking has plenty of tasty and easy to make recipes accompanied by beautiful photography that makes my mouth water.
Now, my photos don’t even come close to hers, but check the photo for the results of my attempt to make Pizza muffins!
The recipe didn’t ask for any weird stuff, I basically had everything. I did replace the pizza sauce with some home made pasta sauce which made them a bit sweeter (next time I’ll use pizza sauce, I promise). I made a small batch, liked it, and then realised I had a lot of dough left. I froze it in batches, so now I only have to take one out, put it in a small ovendish and heat up that muffin. The ones on the photo turned out a bit too large for me, I adjusted the frozen batch accordingly.
Also, because I don’t eat ham I added an extra load of Gouda cheese :)
I don’t like sweet stuff very much, and these savoury muffins just make my day.
I wanted a simple stew to put in my lunchbox for a busy day tomorrow, so I basically took some stuff I had in my cupboard. It approximated this:
Ingredients:
Directions:
Cook the lentils and mix together. Simmer with tomatoes and spices for about 45 minutes.
If needed drain excess liquid, and serve with grated cheese on top.
(Serves 4)
Note: I used a can of Bonduelle (brown) Lentils, dried red lentils and Heinz Tomatoes chopped, with herbs, in juice.
I wanted Mac ‘n’ Cheese, because I had never had it before. I looked at recipes online and they all said something else (though they agree it needed ‘macaroni’ and any type of cheese).
So I decided to make my own recipe with what I had in my cupboards. I used less cheese than most recipes recommended, which worked out very well for me.
Blend untill smooth. Yum.
(I love my new blender)
