Work Food part 2

Work Food part 2

  Did I mention that I’m constantly trying to lose weight? Yeah I do. My last great idea is to cut as much carbs as possible from my diet. Cookies said: AT LAST WOMAN!! and I said – don’t be so cheerful you are going 

My own marinade recipe

My own marinade recipe

I have tremendous problems lately with motivation. It’s very hard to make myself to do anything… so I’m looking for meals that really don’t take too much time or more –God forbid– effort 0_o. Yes I know, it’s bad but… things like that just happens, 

Chix The Elegant Version

Chix The Elegant Version

68 chix elegant way

This recipe I got from my co-worker Magda, who sometimes writes for my Friends Recipes section. Her yummy yams still await translation 😉 sorry!!! In my permanent hunt for chix recipes I grab anything that looks/sounds good. This one was especially appealing, cos of the use of prosciutto ham along with thyme and parmesan cheese. As I got the last bit of  directions from Magda, I managed to prepare it fast and effectively. It looks very elegant on the plate and I believe it’s a very good party dinner material. If you want to impress your MIL or soon to be MIL thats the good dish to do so. Easy, hard to f… up and very, very tasty!

Green Pasta With Shrimps

Green Pasta With Shrimps

Cookies always says I'm a specialist in cooking shrimps 😉 but I just watch attentively cooking shows and listen to the ppl who really know what they are doing in the kitchen 0_o. One of my basic rules with shrimps comes from Jamie Oliver who 

Easy As Pie, The Apple Pie!!

Easy As Pie, The Apple Pie!!

  For the last couple weeks I was tormented by visions of apple cake, pie or whatever but absolutely with apples. I know a good recipe for an apple cake but the baking tin dedicated for it won't fit to my beloved halogen oven. I 

Persian style chicken

Persian style chicken

63 walnut raisins chicken
Yeah another “TAKE THE CHIX OUT BABES!” meal. But completely different than what I’ve made until now. My constant search for chicken recipes never ends. Though very often I threaten Cookies with his all time favourite meal GRILLED CHIX 😛 buaaahahaha you need to see his face when I tell him I make it tonite/tomorrow/ever is priceless. Damn I like to torment him like that… and he is so easy, still after 7 years of marriage he walks into that trap 0_o.

This meal is representative for persian style cooking. It contains a lot of natural sweetness. But if you think it is dull and bland, you are mistaken. It’s delicately sweet and surprisingly rich in aromas. The only catch is you need to dirty 2 pans.

Pork Pork Pork

Pork Pork Pork

A long time ago, before I was even thinking to start blogging Cookies was making me to coat every possible meat or not (see: soy cutlets) in oatmeal bran. Believe me, after some time it’s getting old. Though not to Mr Cookies 0_o. I think

Cookies Wet Dream For as long as I can remember Cookies has been moaning how much he misses certain dishes from US. Some of those foods I managed to make, like Sloppy Joes or Dirty Rice. But one of his Holy Grails is Cinnamon Raisins 

New Years Resolution

New Years Resolution

New Year Resolution

I’m sure you noticed that lately I didn’t post too much. Not that I didn’t cook and make pictures. I just didn’t feel good lately and the writing needs some inspiration which I lacked tremendously
(yes, one of my favourite words, for some unknown reason).

And since today is New Years I’ve made a resolution: I will write more and regularly and will do a lot of other crap that I probably won’t 0_o, but definitely I will do my best in writing new cooking posts and keep my blog alive.

I’ll start with TAKE THE CHIX OUT, BABES! in cranberry sauce which is as always in my kitchen – easy and tasty! I believe it’s a billionth recipe to make chicken breast eatable and not too “undiet”. I found this recipe on Disney branded site

Neverending Astonishment

From the moment I tried asian food I knew these flavours are for me. I love the idea of few base ingredients that builds taste and additional ingredients finishing it. This time I found easy recipe for asian egg noodles fried with pork. Original recipe
