The original ingredients of this recipe consist of mainly broccoli and Stilton. Just because our grocery supplier didn’t have enough broccoli in stock, we opted for cauliflower.

Pecan and pretzel salted caramel bars (tart)
Panic in the kitchen. Where are the pretzels gone? My colleague Chris could tell me with his eyes what happened. No further questions were needed. So, our salted caramel bars were made without pretzels, but instead we got some almond flakes out of the cupboard to use. This is very very delicious . Not very…
Salmon en croute
It was madness in the BUX kitchen and office yesterday. The new coffee machine arrived at the same time as the Graffiti/Street artist Tim Rodermans, who turned our office wall into a vibe of fantastic colors. Meetings were finding place everywhere and everybody was in an overexcited Easter mood. You can guess that lunch wasn’t…
Lamb & chickpea curry
We had a ball today in the BUX kitchen. Everybody was guessing what the chef was preparing for lunch. One said “chicken”, the other figured “kebab”. I heard many suggestions, but none of them were right. aha! This Lamb curry came for some as a surprise, but it was delicious. We did serve the dish…
Sausage and spinach spaghetti
Another very “green” day in the BUX office. But I did promise meat and for sure the Buxers did get it. With green & red peppers instead of the sausage the vegetarian option was created, so that I kept all of these food lovers happy. -enjoy- INGREDIENTS (serves 4) 300g spaghetti (or other pasta) 1…
Spinach and lemon baguette

Pea, courgette and parmesan soup

Sweet leek, ricotta and tomato lasagne – With a gorgeously rich sauce
As we cooked this dish for lunch today, we didn’t use so many layers as suggested below. We were also supposed to finish the lasagne of with the rich tomato sauce, instead the chef forget to do this, the numpty ;-), and we ended up with a crunchy cheesy lasagne sheet on top. Again some…

Kimchi fried rice
It was a true challenge to cook this lovely dish for my Buxers yesterday. First, I did get on my bike from Central Station early in the morning, to get to this great place called Dun Yong. It’s a Walhalla of Asian Food at the Stormsteeg 9 in Amsterdam. With my Kimchi, take-away boxes and…
