Firstly, I was about to make a cake with strawberry. I’ve decided to take the standard recipe of a cake and add some berries there.
But I’ve changed my plans when I was preparing the dough. I’ve decided to take bilberries instead of strawberries.  As a result I came to a conclusion that, if I had […]

I like summer because it gives a wonderful opportunity to get all the vitamins from vegetables, fruit and berries. And it is summer when we can enjoy dishes of cauliflower.

How often do you have a snack in Mc. Donald’s? I won’t argue with you—the food is really tasty there but not healthy. Today’s recipe is home-made Chicken McNuggets. The recipe of chicken fillet with almond crust is good if you are having a “beer party” with your friends or if you are just craving […]
