Chicken and Beef Couscous with Vegetables

Difficulty: difficulty leveldifficulty leveldifficulty level

Preparation time: clock 2h30min.

The other day, I invited our friend Etienne to have some homemade Couscous. It’s not particularly fancy or anything but I like to prepare couscous when I invite people because everybody usually likes it, and since it’s so long to prepare, it is pretty much the same to prepare for 2 persons than for 5 (and you can keep the leftovers for the next day). Moreover, dishes like couscous that are long to prepare are unusual because nobody wants to spend 3 hours cooking nowadays. The secret is that it takes actually only about 30 minutes to cut the vegetables. The rest is basically waiting for the meal to cook itself. So well, what I am trying to say, is that we don’t eat couscous everyday so better enjoy it! Now let’s see if the lucky guests liked it?!

Broccoli and Blue Cheese Quiche

Difficulty: difficulty leveldifficulty leveldifficulty level

Preparation time: clock 50min.

I like quiches for many reasons: they are a good option for preparing veggie meals, they are really fast to prepare and easy to make, they permit to get rid of leftovers, they can combine your favorite ingredients and most of all they are always successful because they look elaborate and taste good. I always try to keep some dough in the freezer, like this I know I can always fix a quiche in case of emergency! Although my excuse for making a quiche this time, was that I needed to use some of the broccoli that was getting bad in the fridge. I hope Bouchon will like it!!!

Spinach & Goat Cheese Pastries

Difficulty: difficulty leveldifficulty leveldifficulty level

Preparation time: clock 40min.

Bouchon really loves “empanadas”, which are some kind of stuff bread or pastries. Empanadas are really typical in Hispanic countries, but I never saw any in France as much as I can remember. I never really liked them before because the only times I tried them was after going out late at night in Barcelona and buying them in the street from the beer dealers and as you can imagine, those ones are not really tasty…



But well I decided today to try to make some for the 1st time and see how that would go. It was much faster and easier than expected and the great thing is that you can fill them with basically anything you’d like! Here is the recipe of the ones I made today: Spinach Pastries.
