Saltimbocca alla Romana

This is an Italian classic – originating from Rome. It consists of practically only 3 ingredients but is pure perfection for your taste buds…
It’s fairly simple to prepare and due to the thin slices of veal, the cooking time is really short, which is very helpful when preparing for guests (or hungry family)!

Summer is here and the weather is super nice and hot here. But what is best to eat in these temperatures? I suggest this very easy to prepare tuna salad. Ideal to take to the swimming pool or Badi (the swimming baths around the Zurich lake) or as a light evening meal, combined with lettuce hearts (to dip!) or with Pita bread (or normal bread of course).

Red, white and blue – 4th of July is nearly here. Don’t know what to prepare yet? Here is an inspiration with the right colors! When we lived in the US, the best thing was the fireworks on the 4th of July (and that its one week before my birthday – and I still love birthdays…). I used to lay on my back and stare into the sky. The blue and golden fireworks are my favorite – up to today!!

Watermelon, Goat Cheese & Spinach Summer Salad

Wow – what a taste explosion! We had a girls night out lately and my friend made this wonderful salad. I changed a few bits and pieces, but kept the general idea…alternatively you can use rocket salad and walnuts instead of baby spinach and Pecan nuts.
Super fresh. Ideal for summer and I just can’t get enough!!

The taste and smell of coconut always reminds me of vacation. Somewhere a little exotic…not sure about you, but if we travel anywhere, where you can get a fresh coconut to drink, I’m the first to grab it! Super refreshing and just mind-blowing delicious!
So why not combine this summer feeling with one of my favorite comfort foods?
So this was a try and I just adore it! Hope you like it too!
