Week 1 2022 in Food Photos - CosetteIsCookin'

We’re already half way through February but here’s week 1 of 2022. Yuri still had Christmas break, so he and I baked a few things together.

Week 1 2022

Monday

Chocolate sauce, served in a small pot with weck closing — Chocolate sauce

Christmas Meringue Tower, served on an rvs plate — Christmas Meringue Tower

Peas, sweet potato and chicken, served on a blue plate — Peas, sweet potato and chicken

Since I had planned too many recipes to prepare at Christmas, I still had a lot of recipes and ingredients left to make. Two of those were chocolate sauce and a Christmas meringue tower. We loved the meringue tower. For dinner we had cubed sweet potatoes, peas and chicken. All from the freezer, to make some room in it.

Tuesday

Yuri wanted to make a Christmas wreath with small frankfurters, so we prepared it for the lunch on Tuesday. For dinner we ordered a burger from BurgerMe.

Wednesday

We had too many bananas and some coconut milk leftover, so I prepared a bananabread coconut & chocolate. Which we liked a lot. We all really love bananabread. For dinner I made us a lumpia with beanrice. Simple but good.

Bananabread Coconut & Chocolate, served on a blue serving platter. Topped with slices of banana — Bananabread Coconut & Chocolate

Lumpia with beanrice, served on a blue plate with knife and fork and soy sauce next to it — Lumpia with beanrice

Thursday

Macaroni, served in a large pan — Macaroni

Yuri prepared our dinner and made macaroni the way his grandmother does. We all love this macaroni, and it turned out the way my mum makes it. So a success.

Friday

Pancake with sweet mascarpone. served on a plate with pink and purple flower motif. The pancake is folded and topped with a leaf of mint and a slice of blood orange — Pancake with sweet mascarpone

Pulled Chicken bun, served on a white paper napking and in a cardboard plate — Pulled Chicken bun

Sushi! most of it served in a large round serving plate. One kind in a rectangle plate — Sushi!

Easy Apple Cider Sangria, served in a pitcher and two wine glasses filled with the sangria in front of it — Easy Apple Cider Sangria

For breakfast I prepared us pancakes with sweet mascarpone, this combination was delicious. The lunch on Friday was a bun with pulled chicken from De Huismeesters. Our weekly order. Yuri first didn’t love sushi, but he has grown to love it. So we ordered sushi for dinner and it’s a larger box than we used to order, since it isn’t just for the 2 of us, but for the 3 of us. At last that day made our weekly sangria, an easy apple cider sangria this time.

Saturday

Breakfast a la Yuri, served on a blue plate, two eggs sunny side up, with ham and bacon under it, and a large sausage — Breakfast a la Yuri

Porkburger with sesame, served on a white plate — Porkburger with sesame

Yuri wanted to have eggs, ham, bacon and sausages for breakfast. He got the ingredients on Friday in the store and prepared it on Saturday morning with a little bit of help from his dad. The rest of the day I was busy taking down our Christmas stuff. Paul prepared a porkburger with sesame from the cookbook Heerlijke Hamburgers.

Sadly on this day the pitcher with sangria slipped out of Paul’s hands, so the end of our pitcher.

Sunday

Kapsalon, served in an rvs box with a plastic cup with sauce on the side — Kapsalon

We helped a friend with packing stuff since she was moving. At the end of the day we took home Greek food from restaurant Aphrodite.

So that was our week 1 2022, and a good start of the New Year. Week 2 2022 will only come in September.
