Spring is here – calendar tells it, but outside is still cold. Anyway, my eyes automatically turns to warm colours. Carrots are full of warm orange colour and they are perfect for us today. In this bake, I used oat bran and it gave the bake a little bit grey colour. So if you want to make colour of the bake brighter – use semolina.
And just a note about carrots. If possible, use young carrots because they have milder taste. Once when I used young carrots the bake came out just perfect. Another time I was not so lucky and I felt carrot taste in the bake that I did not like. However, no one else noticed it, just me 🙂

Cheesecake with almonds and blueberries
This cake is really simple. Only the base is very crumbly. Next time I will add a little bit more butter. But… maybe it”s because I used not oat cookies but shortbread cookies. My hubbe even frightened me – took one bite and moved plate toward me… The first thought – he didn”t like it. BUT I was very happy when he asked to put MORE! 🙂
Turkey and rice stew with carrots and green peas
It’s really very simple stew and seasonings play here the main role. So you should use the ones that your family loves and the quantities that are good for you. Make experiment and enjoy it! As you can guess you can substitute turkey with chicken. We tried it already and we didn’t noticed the difference.
Braised green peas with carrots
This recipe looks so simple, but we found it just this year. And it’s already in top of our favourite recipes. Maybe for someone there’s nothing new, but me and my hubby didn’t eat this dish in our childhood, so it’s new for us. Now when we need quick dinner or supper, we braise all frozen vegetables the same way, and always it comes out really very very delicious.
Sardine pâté
The tastiest pâté for my family. After I prepare this pâté, the others became not suitable for us 🙂 I think this is becaus of lemon given freshness. Just don’t put lemon juice too much. We lowered the amount of them, and we can’t get enough of this.
Cream cheese cookies
Soft cookies that melts in you mouth. At my work they had real success, and the ones that left at home disappeared very quickly.
