Have you ever thought about what would be the perfect lunch to take to work? Anyone who has even once made the mistake of taking hunter's stew or fish knows that it can't be either of those . Well, unless we want it to be our last lunch in the office or for our co-workers to remember us for a very long time. Our lunch should be easy to reheat or something you can eat without reheating. Therefore, salads enriched with groats (of course without garlic sauce) would be an excellent choice. It is great if your lunch is as yummy after reheating as just after cooking and also if it looks beautiful. When we put it all together we have a perfect lunch or... we have to go to a nearby restaurant.

Sometimes my husband asks me to prepare lunch for work, thanks to which I have made many kinds of pasta, colourful groats, salads and pancakes. You can find the recipes in my blog. Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a new lunchtime meal: stuffed kohlrabi with quinoa, pepper and nuts. I found the idea for this dish in the Lidl cookery book. I made the stuffing by myself.

Ingredients:
4 kohlrabies
1 red pepper
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
half a chili pepper
100g of quinoa
3 tablespoons of chopped chives
a handful of cashew nuts

According to my husband, there isn't anything better to slake one's thirst on a hot day than a refreshing, chilled rhubarb compote. I boil the rhubarb in a small amount of water and then I dilute it with some sparkling water. I definitely prefer lemonade with lemon, lime and peppermint. Because of our different preferences, in the summer I usually prepare both drinks.

Rhubarb is a rich source of A and E vitamins, ascorbic acid, potassium, folic acid and fibre. However, it contains a large amount of oxalic acid, so people who suffer from kidney problems and rheumatism shouldn't eat it.

Ingredients:
0.5 kg of fresh rhubarb
500ml of water
1l of sparkling water
4 tablespoons of brown sugar + additional sugar to your taste
half a lemon
half an orange
peppermint leaves

Did you know that the Krecik (Mole) - the main character of the cartoon – was created in 1957? The director Zdenek Miler received an order for an educational movie about fabric production. The movie was intended for young viewers and the first version of the movie was disappointing. Only the movie with Krecik (Mole) as the main character was accepted. In the first episode Krecik got some new trousers.

Although it is difficult to believe, it sometimes occurs that there are chocolate muffins on the table and nobody wants to eat them. In my home this happened for the first time. The day after preparation, muffins aren't as yummy as just after baking, so I decided to use them to make a different kind of muffin called small molehills – a dessert inspired by the nice cartoon character Krecik. My children love Krecik just as much as I do, and they named the dessert "cookies with a surprise" because as well as traditional banana, I put bits of strawberry inside the muffins.
