Bocconcini-stuffed meatballs with tomato sauce

This recipe is fun to make, kids will love to help out here! I see our photographer also had a little taste of the vegetarian “meatball” from the “vegetarische slager”, what means vegetarian butcher in Dutch. Our vegetarian colleagues love his food! Check it out. 😉 -enjoy- INGREDIENTS (serves 4) 1 tablespoon milk ½ cup…

Mushroom bourguignon

With porcini mushrooms & red wine. The ultimate Autumn dish! Absolutely delicious. Another great Jamie O. recipe. The mash was made very creamy. Great dish with a little rocket salad on the side for some sharpness. -enjoy- Ingredients (serves 4-6) 12 shallots 25 g dried porcini mushrooms 4 portobello mushrooms 120 g shiitake mushrooms 200…

Smoky veggie chilli

Smoky veggie chilli – Sweet gem & cheesy jacket spuds What can I say? This is just very good cold weather grub! The BUXters where not very much impressed I did cook them a vegetarian meal for the second day in a row, but with this comforting dish I didn’t hear a peep out of…

Mushroom & lentil pappardelle bolognese

This is truly delicious. My vegetarian friends in the office were very very happy with me, but also the meat lovers couldn’t believe how nice this meatless meal really was. A green salad on the side made this dish look even more appetizing. Ingredients (serves 4) 1 carrot 1 onion 2 cloves of garlic 1…

Creamy asparagus soup

This recipe is meant to be with green asparagus. But because it’s the season for the white ones, I picked those. Don’t forget if you do so too, to peal the skin of the white asparagus. The outside is tough and difficult to eat. Just an idea, maybe I will try a mix of both…

Tray-baked panzanella salad

From the lovely Francesca in the office I have learned that there are different kinds of panzanella in Italy. Her grandmother made it out of stale bread. You make the bread a little wet, rub some oval shaped tomatoes over it plus some oil, pepper & salt. She also made it very clear that you…

Pea, mint and feta smash

So easy to prepare and the result is stunning. A favorite under the BUX colleagues as some people asked for the recipe straight after lunch. Tip: When you get the peas out of the freezer put them in a sieve and rinse with hot water until the peas are thawed. Squeeze them first in your…

Quinoa and haloumi spring salad

A great combination with the Lamb and feta meatball flatbreads. My colleagues at BUX munched their way through this healthy lunch, some of them even came back for thirds… We did skip the haloumi in this recipe. The reason why was because we just did not order it. So improvising is a great thing, skipping…

Broccoli, Cauliflower and Stilton Soup

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. Also, we changed the dried thyme for dried Italian herbs, which worked out really well. This soup is quite filling, but absolutely gorgeous. It’s great to add this…

Healthy lentil, tomato & spinach soup

This soup makes you feel strong and super healthy: Red lentils, vine tomatoes and spinach, what a great combination. Our own Poppey from the office was very impressed and came back for seconds 😉 Ingredients (Serves 4) 1 tsp olive oil 1 white onion 2 cloves of garlic 2 sticks of celery 1 small bunch…
