Quick and easy dish. That”s what I need for supper. I liked that there is no cheese. But I don’t know about my hubby. He is the cheese lover, but eating this dish he didn’t mentioned cheese. So I don”t know he was satisfied with the meal or just tired repeating that he needs cheese 🙂 Any way – the dish is good and classic.

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 …
Minced meat and feta bake
I think this is the last recipe with pasta for some time. Now I’ll take a break from pasta because now we eat a lot of salads, barbecued meat and everything we find in the freezer. Of course when autumn will be near, we gonna need warming and satisfying food, so pasta will be back. Some words about the recipe. It’s satisfying and good, and simple. Unfortunately I had only one third of cheese, but it didn’t ruined the taste.
Pasta with olives
One more easy and quick pasta recipe. If you like olives, this dish will be definitely in your favourite list. Sometimes, when I prepare some new dish – everyone in my family likes it, but when I repeat it – the second time we don’t. Maybe it happens to you to? But this time, when I prepared this pasta again, my hubbies decision was the same – absolutely winner.
Chicken breast with homemade tomato sauce
Sometimes even when at home there is only a few products, you still can prepare satisfying meal. For this one you only need to buy canned tomatoes and chicken breast, other products – I guest almost everyone have at home. But I have to tell you this time you will have to spend some time preparing tomato sauce, but it’s worth that. I like it even more than store bought. But my kids don’t agree with me 🙂 But everyone has the right to choose.
Buckwheat salads for 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.
