The week's shopping is almost over, and we don't really know what to prepare anymore. Lacking inspiration? Here are some ideas.
Eggs, milk, bread, spices and even pasta are always in our cupboards. These are the basics to have, which never run out of stock and which often save the day. Don't just snack on two or three biscuits, we present to you some ideas for delicious recipes to prepare, based on these essentials.
It's all about imagination
Don't panic if you run out of inspiration or don't know what you want. Whatever happens, from the basics in the cupboard, the sandwich saves the day, starchy foods are the basis of all dishes, including the simplest recipes: those from our childhood. Ham coquillettes, croque-monsieur, gnocchi or tomato tart, these recipes are inexpensive, quick and doable in all circumstances! No more lazy meals based on a slice of bread, a few biscuits or an online order. Eating on the go should not rhyme with poor nutrition, be inventive! Here are 20 recipe ideas.
