Tomorrow is Monday… Lately half of Sunday I usually spend preparing meals for the coming week. And the best start of the week – a light and healthy lunch. These salads we prepared a few times and I can say that we like it with boiled raw buckwheat, but you can use what you have, or what you like more. Here I present you our version.

Spanish omelet
This is our new best breakfast. We baked it I think even four times. And understood one thing – it’s really good with tomato and sour cream sauce. Maybe it would be great with green salads too, but this combination we will try only in the spring.
Salads Herring bites
Simple but satisfying salads. I liked them a lot. My hubby said that he needs more moisture, but everything can be fixed by adding sour cream or mayonnaise to your taste.
Balsamic green bean salads
Spring is near so we should start cleaning our freezers. We love green beans and every year I prepare a lot of them for the winter. But almost always the best dish for me and my daughter is fried green beans with butter and bread crumbs. Until now! Maybe this delicious salads are very tasty just for me and my hubby, because dressing has a really strong taste. But kids also eat these salads, just amount is not very big 🙂
Sausage stew
Very simple but still effective stew. Especially good when you have to feed your family with only five sausages.
Buckwheat and curd bake
For the first time in my life I ate sweet buckwheat bake ? I don”t use buckwheat preparing food. Mostly we eat them only cooked with a lot of butter, and sometime we add some curd into them. But it”s boring, and this bake was something new. We ate it with strawberry jam and it was really tasty. I made a photo of the last piece that I grabbed from my husband plate ? That means that this recipe is really great. Though in the beginning I was very sceptical.
