The summer is over, but we still can enjoy cold beetroot soup. I prepared it a few weeks ago, while we still had our own cucumbers and beetroots. I’ve never prepared this soup with sour cream, but it’s really good. So from now on I think I won’t by expensive sour milk that is made specially for this soup, but will buy cheaper and add some sour cream. Because it’s delicious too!

Potato salads with sour cream
I know that potatoes doesn’t sound very summery, but it’s quick and only that matters to me now. Just have to mention that I asked my hubby to boil potatoes and eggs while I was at work. 🙂
Potato bread
At last I found bread that my hubby really enjoyed eating it 🙂 Yeah… For long time I baked only bread without the crust. But now I have big hopes that we will make a break with it and start baking this potato bread. By the way, the taste of this bread is slightly similar to “švilpikai” 🙂
Golden fish cakes
Quite easy fish cakes that you can make using ordinary products. Expecially good for using mashed potatoes leftovers. We don’t like fish very much, but this dish we liked even a lot 🙂 Next to this fish cakes you’ll have to serve only salads. I also liked sprinkling these cakes with lemon juice.
Layered cheese and beetroot salads
Very delicious salads. Sad that photo doesn’t present the real taste.
Minced meat cakes with potatoes
This dish is very practical 🙂 It’s suitable for festive gatherings, because it doesn’t require a lot of time for preparing and everythings are baked at one time. All you need is only salads. We all agreed that we will prepare it again and again.
