Tomatoes!

Yellow sweet tomatoes and red cherry tomatoes which are a tiny bit too sourish. But I love all my tomatoes. It's so great to walk to the window in the morning and pick some tomatoes for my lunch at work.

Salad with fresh basil

Cœur de bœuf.



A few weeks ago I found these pretty tomatoes and had to buy them. I know that there are thousands of tomato variations but it's rare to get some which is kind of sad. That's one reason why I'm so excited about my yellow tomatoes growing in a small pot on my window sill.
Unfortunately my two cœur de bœuf  weren't very tasty, more or less quite bland, but they are really great for stuffed tomatoes as they are not as soft as the average tomato which usually finds their way into our kitchens. And of course they're way bigger.
My filling was made of TVP, soaked in veggie broth, mixed with finely cut onions and spices like garam masala, cumin, salt, pepper and fennu greek.
As I had some maccheroni left overs I just baked these together with the stuffed tomatoes for about 25 minutes in the oven.

A cucumber salad with fresh mint grown on my window sill.

The dressing was made from soy cream, salt, dill, mint. Bam. So refreshing.
Fried soy steaks with my great cucumber salad I just made.


My avocado.

Steaks with potato salad.

Recently I use a lot of smoked paprika, it's so great. If you open the small bottle it smells totally weird like bacon but if you season your food with it it just adds a rich, hearty, smokey flavour and you don't need very much of it. 
But of course, you could use very much of it if you like your food tasting totally weird like bacon.
