Next week's menu for my family while I'm 8 months pregnant
Next week's menu for my family while I'm 8 months pregnant. I'm always trying new things. Let's go!
I made some cocoa muffins using scraps of uneaten fruit (boiled and blended), sweet dates, yogurt, eggs and flour+baking powder. No added sugar and the toddler loves it! I also made some animal shapes.
For blueberry cheesecake I mixed blueberry yoghurt, some quark, 4 eggs and cornstarch. Baked for 50 minutes and topped with homemade blueberry jam.
Burrito bowls: rice as a base, black beans, sweet corn, minced chicken meat seasoned with taco seasoning and sautéed with tomato paste and pineapple. Some tomatoes on the side and topped with hot sauce and a lime wedge.
Spinach pasta with sheep cheese, bacon and shallots. Blended spinach with eggs and kneaded it into flour to make something resembling pasta dough. Then I cut it with scissors over salted boiling water. Sauce is bryndza sheep cheese combined with sour cream and topped with crunchy bacon and shallots.
I made pretzels for the first time! It's a simple yeasted dough with pretty low hydration. Before baking I dipped them in baking soda water and sprinkled flaky salt. They came out delicious!
Oh and there's my sourdough fermenting to be baked into bread this evening.
