a quick snack

I was feeling pretty bad the last week... 
Diagnosis : homesick
Cure : Spent time with family 
So I was home and feeling kind of hungry and cereals with milk were available so I found some dry raspberries and made myself a quick tasty sweet -but not sweet- snack.

Tasty salad

Sooo since I've been eating no salad for quite a while ( and mum kept on pushing me) I decided to make a salad today which I actually got inspired after one vlog that I saw on you tube by The Grid Monster and it sounded so delicious I had to try it.
My ingredients are cherry tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, basil, some olive oil, oregano and croutons.
So the steps were really easy I actually cut on half the cherry tomatoes, after which I diced the mozzarella cheese. Last I chopped the basil mixed everything together and pour some olive oil, oregano and croutons over it.




And it really was tasty. So tasty that I will be probably making an new version of it soon. :)
Oh and I just remembered my mother has started her own blog so if you like hand crafts check it out

matriciana

Today's meal was something...
I never was really into cooking mostly into eating :P but as soon as me and Mike decided we should start making food a whole new world opened up to me. Matriciana was one of those recipes that I really enjoyed both during the making of it as well as during the eating of it :)
Anyway first of all we gathered everything we needed soo salt, pepper, basil, oregano,wine (we prefer rose wine), tomato sauce, grated chesse (optional), half chopped onion, chopped bacon (four stripes) and pasta of course.

So we heated the oil and as soon as it was hot enough we put the chopped onions in until they had a nice golden color. When that occured we put the bacon in and left it for about three minutes on medium to light fire and then poured in the wine and left until the scent of the wine was no detectfull. Lastly we poured in the tomato sauce along with the salt, the pepper, the oregano and the basil. Here's some photos :

Snitchel

Cooking meat always seemed hard to me but Mike insisted it was pretty easy so we decided to give simple snitchels a try.
I will not perscribe its receipe due to it being so easy to be done and found on the internet.
What I will do is provide you with photos of our attempt :
