Some yummy things.

 

 

Zapiekanki out of the oven

We had so many zapiekanki (Polish grilled street food) while on our holiday that we really felt like we were in withdrawal after we returned home.  I decided to remedy that by making some.  They turned out so well, Hubby said that they were tastier than in Krakow (but I'm sure he just said that to get me to make more :-)  They turned out nice and crispy!

Mushroom Zapiekanki

4 Italian sausage buns
1 package of cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
1/2 purple onion, finely chopped
shredded cheese (fontina and cheddar)
butter for sauteing
salt and pepper
Ketchup

Spread some butter on the sliced buns and preheat the broiler.  Saute the onions and mushrooms with salt and pepper until they start to brown.  Top the bread with the mushroom mixture, cover with cheese and place under the broiler until the cheese melts (just a minute or two). Top with ketchup or horseradish cream.

Cornmeal waffles with blueberries

 It is blueberry season and we have been indulging!  For breakfast, lunch and dinner we've been enjoying these little gems!

Blueberry custard pie ready for the oven

Out of the oven

 This is my new favourite pie.  It was so good and easy to make!  I got the recipe from the Martha Stewart site, again.  Originally it was to be made with raspberries, but we ate them up before I could make anything else with them.  I will try that recipe tomorrow since we went raspberry picking today.  I like that there is only one layer of pastry and lots of cream!

Blueberry smoothie

 And when it is too hot to cook a BLT is always welcome.  It's a nice dinner option for families with kids because everyone can customize their sandwich and there is no major fuss with doing that.  Mr. T ate everything separately and had his bread with honey, Little D made a sandwich without any veggies (like Daddy) and this was my creation.  It was lovely!
