This meal is for cauliflower lovers 🙂 One of them is my little daughter. The other – me 🙂 The fact that my daughter ate this dish the next day too, shows that it is very delicious 🙂 Only I used only cauliflowers, but believe that with broccoli the taste would be great also.

Sandwiches with tomatoes and olives
One more our breakfast recipe. Taste reminds pizza’s, when I added basil leaves. These sandwiches you will prepare very quickly but the taste will give you a good start for the whole day.
Risi e bisi
It is classic Venice rice dish. Usually it is served with more liquid than in risotto. And the most important – it is really easy and quick. We made it a few times, and always family is delighted.
Cauliflower and egg salads
Lately people started to switch potatoes with cauliflowers. I saw how people make “potato” mash from cauliflower, and then I saw “potato” salads with cauliflower. We like cauliflower, so why not to give it a try. I made them for lunch and you know – it was really nice to get message from my hubby “Thank you, it was really delicious”. So I opened my lunch box and tasted them – I really enjoyed them. The main thing – don’t over boil cauliflower, it should be a little bit crispy. And if you don’t like mayonnaise, you can use sour cream or natural yoghurt – I tried with them when I was out of mayo. Just you will need to add more seasonings, and maybe add a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar.
Chicken breast coated with polenta
I wanted something new, not usual to us. So I prepared this chicken and I’m happy about that. At first the process looked very difficult and long, but in one hour everything was finished and we could enjoy the meal.
Pizza muffins
When me and my hubby for dinner want only salads, I know that my kids won’t aprove it. So I bake for them these pizza muffins and we eat them with the salads 🙂 They are very easy and quick, I think even a kid can bake them. The only thing I can say – I don’t know how they taste when completely cooled down or on the next day – we eat them warm and all at once.
