Chili con carne

Mexican minced meat and bean chilli. Can be prepared very quickly. We were afraid that beans will blanket out other ingredients, but we were wrong and I am glad about that. We wanted something hot, and we got it 🙂

Makaronai su sūrio ir pomidorų padažu

Pasta with cheese and tomatoes sauce

Author: Aušra Date: 2013-04-30 This pasta is very warming because of the chilli pepper, so if you eat with your kids, be ready to hear that it’s hot. My kids said so, but ate anyway …

Sausage stew

Very simple but still effective stew. Especially good when you have to feed your family with only five sausages.

Warm pasta salads with feta

The weather is getting cold so I was looking for the warm food, but I didn’t want anything heavy so I suggest you to try this pasta dish with vegetables. It’s satisfying but refreshing at the same time (because of tomatoes).

Cherry tomato tart

Sometimes happens that you buy something and forget where you were planning to use it. The same happened with cherry tomatoes. So I used this easy recipe. I was surprised when my hubby liked it, because he doesn’t like basil and oregano.
