Want to make the best bolognese sauce? For years I thought I wouldnt succeed, because Grandmas spaghetti bolognese was number one. But with this bolognese sauce recipe, Im getting pretty close! From now on I will make this bolognese sauce in the slow cooker, but you can of course also do it in the p

It doesnt get much better than this. The marinade I used with this slow cooker chicken cashew looks a bit like the spareribs marinade, but its not! So its better to follow the recipe for this chicken with cashew nuts if you want to eat just as delicious as we did. Prefer a different slow cooker reci

If you want good food in den Bosch, there are plenty of options for a bite to eat. Yet there are also lesser-known gems where you can go for a delicious dinner, without having to take a very big wallet with you. Ill tell you more about restaurant Aarde, where Frank and I recently had a delicious din

Did you also receive a letter like this from your child? About Christmas dinner at school? Or the Christmas breakfast… whatever. Very nice for the kids. But does it have to be in the busiest month of the year, right before Christmas? Secretly I think F*ck! , but of course I say Oh, how nice and cozy

Cheese and Cocktails. When the invitation for this event comes in, I dont really know what to think. Besides that it has a nice mouth, the flavor combination of cheese and cocktails does not sound very fantastic to me. And as a true wine lover, it also feels a bit like cheating. But hey, Im open min

Homemade low-carb bread variant? Im done with it all the time. Several bakes later I have to admit that I am simply not a kitchen princess. I just dont bake any of the baked goods that others sell me on the internet and which they apparently like. There will undoubtedly come a period when I will try

A recipe for broccoli soup. My children think its fine to eat broccoli, but when I indicated that we would eat broccoli soup, I immediately started crying. “Arrgghh, yikes” said one and “ohhh no huh” the other. As if they agreed in advance. Every time something new is put in front of them (soup or s

Recently my son Ravi turned 7 years old. He wanted to bake something delicious with chocolate and of course I went along with that! While searching my website, his eye quickly fell on the gluten-free recipe chocolate muffins. A childishly simple recipe, so a good choice for the little big man! Tabl

A Smash Cake, ever heard of it? One loves it, the other terribly irresponsible. There are many pros and many cons, but one thing is for sure… its a lot of fun to organize a cake smash! Order Hema accessories ⇒ for a Cake Smash Order nice Smash Cake accessories at Bol.com ⇒ Table of contents W

About three years ago I started eating sugar-free. Soon the parcels and bags were also thrown out and we often left the bread behind. Not always, but about five days a week. However, Friday is still snack day for us. We often make this ourselves, such as this recipe for homemade shoarma spices! Tab

Variety in your food; I think its one of the trickier things. I often get stuck in the same patterns and then I am uninspired when it comes to tasty recipes that are just that little bit different. And search the internet? There is already so much that I can no longer see the forest for the trees. T

What are we eating today? It can sometimes make me almost distraught, thinking about what to eat today. Add to that two questioning children who - just like with Ellen - raise the question what do we eat several times a day and you have me on the shelf. That is why I regularly ask for inspiration fr

A while ago I wrote that teenage son has decided that he wants to become a pastry chef. How this will all work out, I have no idea. But the fact is that he comes up with nice ideas these days. This time he wants to make apple turnovers the way he did at school. So I dont really have to do much, alth

Some people think Im crazy when I say Im making a slow cooker cake. How do you bake cake in the slow cooker? Why would you do that and you cant do that at all? But Ill tell you, its possible. And its delicious too! If you also want to make a slow cooker cake, read on. After all my slow cooker experi

On my article about slow cooker experiences I got a lot of reactions from peanut chicken enthusiasts. And so I thought… we should give that one a try here at home. Peanut chicken from the slow cooker. I make my own peanut sauce fairly often, but I had never made peanut chicken from the slow cooker

When I first had the slow cooker on my counter, that was indeed my question. How exactly does a slow cooker work? The answer to that is not difficult at all, but you still have to learn how to cook with a slow cooker. Learning to cook is mainly about the time that certain dishes need in the slow coo

You can eat this chocolate every day! Wouldnt that be great? An excuse to eat chocolate seven days a week. And not because you are pathetic, menstrual or tired. No, really a good reason to convince everyone that you are right, that it is responsible to eat chocolate every day. A nice piece of chocol

You know what I miss most when Im on vacation? My own sweet little kitchen. I love going out to eat once, but after a few days the fries come out of my nose. And then I crave potatoes, meat, and vegetables again. Or a nice oven dish. Do you have that too? Can you also enjoy making and eating your ow

A tasty parsnip soup on the program this time. But first:what is a parsnip? A parsnip is what they call a “forgotten vegetable”. I found another name that you may also know:Pentecost. It looks like a white carrot that was left in the ground just a little too long. A parsnip is large and thick, and h

Eating is something I like to do. “Mommy, what are we going to eat later?” was the first question I asked my mother as a child when I got home from school. I was (and still am) very happy to meet a nice boy who also loved food:my boyfriend and now my husband (even though we are not married). We alwa
