Oatmeal Cookies
May 20th, 2017 in Desserts by Julia Volhina
Easy quick recipe for a childhood favorite: oatmeal cookies.
Back in the days we cooked them by grinding rolled oats into the flour, but nowadays one can simply buy oat flour instead.
Either way will work, you may need to play with amount of ingredients a bit.
Consistency of the flour and ground oats may vary a bit, and so can vary sour cream, so adjust amount of flour needed based on dough consistency.

Creamy Spinach with Eggs
November 5th, 2016 in Sides by Julia Volhina
Creamy Spinach with Eggs is my goto side dish recipe for baked or grilled salmon.
If you are looking for more ways to add some leafy greens into your diet – this may be a recipe to try.
Fresh spinach with eggs and sour cream cooks in minutes, is packed with nutrients and also tastes great.
By the way spinach volume will reduce significantly while cooking, so don’t get surprised and start with a big bunch.
Zucchini and Chicken Casserole
October 22nd, 2016 in Chicken, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
If you have an abundance of zucchini, this is definitely one recipe to try.
For me it stays somewhere on a verge between being a casserole and omelette. It has creamy texture, tons of fiber, nice amount of protein and green festive color 🙂
Zucchini and Chicken Casserole is a great choice for lunch or dinner, or even breakfast if you prepare it in advance ready for reheating.
Zucchini Crepes
August 27th, 2016 in Main Dishes, No-meat by Julia Volhina
Savory crepes with no sugar added and lower amount of flour than in traditional crepes due to usage of zucchini pulp – yes, count me in!
Amount of flour specified in the recipe is somewhat approximate. You may end up using more or less depending on how liquid the kefir is.
Generally you don’t want to get batter to thick for crepes to become too thick, but you also don’t want to make it too thin either because it will be hard to turn a crepe over when frying (it may tear).
So if crepe tears when you try to flip it, add a bit flour in before frying next one, or if it turns out too thick – add a bit of kefir to the batter.
Kefir makes crepes very tender, and may be somewhat hard to flip in general, so use smaller frying pan to make the process easier.
Omelette with Broccoli
August 13th, 2016 in Eggs, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
If you like quiches for breakfast or brunch but don’t want to mess with puff pastry (or trying to cut off some carbs and fat) try this recipe for an omelette with broccoli.
I used fresh broccoli crowns (they are pretty inexpensive and taste great being in season and such), however frozen ones will probably work as well.
Cooking time for the omelette will depend on the size of the pan and amount of ingredients you use. Start testing readiness at 20 mins mark with a wooden toothpick. When omelette is ready, the toothpick should come out clean when stuck into the middle of the omelette.
Amount of ingredients from this recipe will produce 2 portions.
