FRUIT SALAD WITH SALMON AND MOZZARELLA CHEESE
I think that sometimes everybody is hungry but doesn’t know what to eat.
We open the fridge and although there is everything inside, we are not in the mood for anything in particular. Salads save the day. You only have to think for a while and with the main ingredients you can prepare a yummy dish. Add egg, beans, chickpeas, or any meat to the salad and you have a rich and equally light and beautiful dish.

Add egg, beans, chickpeas, or any meat to the salad and you have a rich and equally light and beautiful dish.
Sometimes a combination …of ingredients which seemingly don’t go together make a yummy and surprising effect.
Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a salad with this kind of unusual combination:
fruit, pepper, smoked salmon, mozzarella cheese and a spicy sweet-and-sour dip. In my opinion, it tastes heavenly, and you will have to admit it looks beautiful.
Ingredients (for 2 people):
salad:
1 yellow pepper
5 strawberries
2 peaches
200 g of mozzarella cheese
200 g of smoked salmon
Peppermint and basil leaves
dip:
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 teaspoon of honey
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
chili pepper
salt and pepper
First make the dip. Dice the chili pepper, and mix in the olive oil, lemon juice and honey. Add the chili pepper and spice it up with the salt and pepper. Mix it in again and leave for a while.
Cut all the ingredients of the salad into smaller pieces. Arrange them in a bowl, sprinkle with the dip and decorate with the peppermint and basil leaves.
Enjoy your meal!

Ek het gewone brooddeeg gevat en plat gerol. Toe het ek spinasie wat lekker gekook is met wortels en aartappels eers op gesit. Toe het ek kaas oor gesit en toe gaar hoender stukkies. Die deeg op gerol en binne in broodpan gesit en weer laat rys. En in gasoond op no 12 gebak vir 1 uur. Hou maar net dop. Heerlik met n lekker sousie bo op. Jy kan natuurlik insit wat jy wil.

OMELETTE WITH COURGETTE AND TOMATO SALSA
This year thanks to my sister I have a lot of fresh chili pepper. Because my children don’t like spicy dishes I add the chili pepper only to meals for adults. I think next spring I will again ask her for some cuttings, because they are quite strong and look so beautiful.
Today I added a bit of chili pepper to tomato-basil salsa. Because it was quite spicy I decided to add it to a mild dish. I prepared an omelette with courgette and goat cheese. The salsa added an excellent piquancy to it. I recommend this dish for a fast and light meal.
Omelette:
3 eggs
150g of courgette
3-4 slices of goat cheese
2 tablespoons of milk
1 tablespoon of flour
1 tablespoon of butter
salt and pepper
Salsa:
2 tomatoes
3 tablespoons of minced basil
quarter of an onion
2 cloves of garlic
half a chili pepper
3 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
1 teaspoon of honey
Start by preparing the salsa. Cube the tomato and dice the garlic, onion and chili pepper. Mix the vegetables together. Make a sauce with the olive oil, lemon juice and honey. Add it to the vegetables and mix it in. Leave in the fridge.
Slice the courgette very thin. Whisk the eggs with the milk and add the flour. Spice it up with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a pan. Pour half the egg mass into it and fry for a while at medium heat. Arrange half of the courgette slices on top along with the slices of goat cheese and the rest of the courgette. Pour the rest of the egg mass onto it and fry it. When the eggs have congealed, turn the omelette upside down and fry for a few seconds. Serve at once with the tomato salsa.

KATARNYZA’S HOLIDAY BRUNCH
During the holiday, eating is a waste of time for my children. Although breakfast should be a balanced and calm meal, at this time it is eaten quickly and carelessly. Sometimes I need to wrest my children away from their play and nourish their young bodies with brunch.
Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a very simple egg and vegetable brunch. Though my children like all vegetables, the look of the food made them anxious. Only the soft boiled eggs settled them down and got them eating. After a while there were two empty glasses in the dishwasher and my children could go back to playing. It was good, because the holiday is almost over.
half an onion
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of butter
300g of courgette
1 red pepper
2 tomatoes
2 sprigs of rosemary
2 sprigs of thyme
3 tablespoons of minced chives
3 eggs
Dice the onion and garlic and fry them in butter. Remove the core from the tomatoes. Cube the courgette, tomatoes and red pepper. Put one of the cubed tomatoes to one side. Add the second tomato and the rest of the vegetables to the onion and stew on a low heat for 10 minutes. Boil some water and carefully put the eggs into the water. Boil for 5 minutes. Cool them down and carefully remove the shell. Mix the stewed vegetables in with the rest of the tomato. Spice it up with salt and pepper. Put the vegetables into a cup. Arrange the eggs on top and cut them up with a sharp knife. Spice up the egg with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the chives.
Serve at once.
Enjoy your meal!

5 sampioene (opgekap)
1 groot ui (opgekap)

3 eiers
1 teelepel mosterdpoeier
peper na smaak

Meng 1 pakkie wit uie sop met 1 houertjie suurroom en laat staan vir 10 minute.
Voeg by maaskaas, eiers, mosterdpoeier en peper. Meng goed deur en voeg spinasiemengsel by en  gerasperde cheddar kaas. Meng alles ligweg deur.
Skep in ‘n bak gespuit met spray en cook en bak by 180°C vir 30 na 40 minute – kyk as gestol en bruin bo-op is.
As uit die oond kom, gooi nog gerasperde kaas oor.
Ek het 2 swart olywe geneem en stukkies gesny en bo-oor gesit vir versiering met bietjie paprika.
Opsioneel:
