Breakfast with cereals/ Mic Dejun cu cereale

Two days ago I found over the internet a very intresting article about Chia Seeds. That article made me keep searching about them for hours. So yesterday I bought this wonderful seeds. Also bought some flax seed and oatmeal.

As soon I got home I put some water to boil, grab a bowl and put 2 tablepoons of oatmeal, one tablespoon of flax seeds and one spoon of chia seeds. Mix them a little bit. Then I poured the boiled water over them and covered the bowl ( I use a bigger plat of that) for 15  minutes.

You can eat them simple or for more flavour you can add a spoon of honey or an apple. I've added an apple :)

Acum 2 zile am gasit pe internet un articol interesant despre semintele Chia. Asa ca ieri m-am dus si mi-am cumparat un borcan cu aceste minunate seminte. De asemenea am mai cumparat seminte de in si fulgi de ovaz.

De indata ce am ajuns acasa am pus putina apa la fiert, am luat un castron si am pus 2 linguri de fulgi de ovaz, o lingura de seminte de in si o lingurita de seminte Chia. Le-am amestecat putin. Apoi am turnat apa fierbinte peste ele si am acoperit castronul ( eu folosesc o farfurie mai mare) pentru 15 minute.

Puteti sa le mancati simple sau pentru mai multa aroma puteti adauga o lingura de miere sau un mar. Eu am adaugat un mar :).

Flavored mashed potatoes / Piure de cartofi aromat

Today I woke up with only one thought: mashed potatoes! But...I wanted to make something different.
So I found in my pantry:
- 3-4 normal potatoes
- 1 sweet potatoe
- some spices: oregano, basil, thyme, paprika and pepper
- vegetable margarine ( no more than a half of tablespoon)
- sea salt

Put to boil the potatoes, with their skins and a little bit of salt. Meanwhile mix the margarine with the spices very well.

Astazi m-am trezit cu un singur gand: piure de cartofi! Dar...am vrut ceva diferit.

Asa ca , in camara am gasit urmatoarele:

- 3-4 cartofi normali

- un cartof dulce

- cateva condimente: oregano, busuioc, cimbru, boia dulce si piper

- margarina vegetala ( nu mai mult de jumatate de lingura)

- sare de mare

Punem la fiert cartofii, cu tot cu coaja, si cu putina sare. Intre timp amestecam margarina cu condimentele , foarte bine.

 When the potatoes are boiled , crush them and mix with the spicy margarine.

We served them with some pickeld cucumber :)

  

Cand cartofii au fiert, ii zdrobim si ii amestecam cu margarina aromata.

Noi i-am mancat cu castraveti murati :)

Garlic sauce / Mujdei de usturoi

Because it's very healthy and we like garlic, I thought to say to you as I do this easy sauce.
What we need:
- Garlic (now depends on how much you want to do, I usually put about half of skull)
- salt
- Olive oil
- A little water

First clean the garlic, then cut it into pieces (not too small - about 1 cm) and put them in a bowl (I usually use either a glass or a cup). 

Pentru ca e foarte sanatos usturoiul si pentru ca ne place, m-am gandit sa va spun si voua cum fac eu banalul mujdei.
Avem nevoie de:
- usturoi ( acu depinde cat de mult vreti sa faceti, eu deobicei pun cam jumatate de capatana)
- sare
- ulei de masline
- un pic de apa

Mai intai curatam usturoiul, il taiem in bucatele ( nu prea mici - aproape 1 cm) si le punem intr-un vas ( eu folosesc deobicei ori un pahar ori o ceasca).

Sprinkle a little salt over and begin to pound (I use a wooden stick for honey).
Presaram un pic de sare peste si incepem sa il pisam ( eu folosesc un betisor de lemn pentru miere).

When everything is mixed, pour a little olive oil (half a teaspoon). Mix again very well.
Cand totul s-a omogenizat , turnam un pic de ulei de masline ( jumatate de lingurita). Amestecam din nou, foarte bine.

The last step is to put water in the composition and mix again.
Ultima etapa este aceea de a pune apa in compozitie si a amestecat, din nou. Cantitatea apei poate sa difere, in functie de cum preferati.

You can enjoy with these crunchy potatoes.
Ii puteti servi cu acesti cartofi crocanti.
