Dill meatballs

8 / 13 / 127 / 7 / 15

Dill is not a herb I use, in fact I think this is the first batch I’v ever purchased. So far I’ve tried them in an omelette, I think that went well. When I was ready to do these meatballs it seemed like a good idea use the dill here too…

Pumpkin leaves and butternut

7 / 23 / 126 / 25 / 15

If i haven’t said it already, pumpkin leaves are my favourite leafy green veggie, they are awesome when cooked with ground veggies, thats my preferred way to have them, but this is nice as well.

Zucchini, sausages and pasta

7 / 17 / 126 / 25 / 15

What do you do when you get home late and you still have to make dinner? Well, it would be nice to pass by some place and get something to go, on the way home but that’s not always possible.

Mbaazi with sausages

7 / 13 / 126 / 25 / 15

Here’s a nice way to have those sausages you love, if you’re tired of doing what you always do. This will also turn out nice with breakfast beans I think.

Risotto from leftovers

5 / 25 / 126 / 19 / 15

Risotto is usually rice cooked in a stock with several ingredients. Every time I do something like that I tend to burn though, so i think this is a great workaround…

Tilapia Strips, chips and a dip

5 / 24 / 126 / 19 / 15

When I eat chips in restaurants (out of a personal choice) I ask for mushroom sauce or guacamole to use in place of ketchup or tomato sauce. When they don’t have either, I have them plain, which is also what happens at home. I made this dip for the fish but it was nice on the chips too…
