When I was a child, a quick and easy dessert served for tea was pudding and kissel. Today when I think of my familly's favourite dessert, I think of pudding made from tapioca. I have made this dessert so many times, and every time I am impressed with the texture and the beautiful supple balls. Tapioca itself doesn't have any flavour. Our favourite is pudding made from tapioca with sour fruits. This time I mixed vanilla tapioca with coffee tapioca and sour pomegranate and blueberries.

Ingredients (for 4 people)
400ml of coconut milk
400ml of milk
80g of tapioca
3 teaspoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
2 pieces of milk chocolate
2 pieces of dark chocolate
1 strong espresso
pomegranate
blueberries

Cake with oats is a delicious healthy dessert for everyone. It is moist and it stays fresh for a long time. Peanut butter gives it a nice taste and the icing made of white chocolate and peanut butter is amazingly smooth and sweet and salty. Pomegranate and pistachio on top look decorative and are a nice contrast to the chocolate-banana sweetness of the dessert. You will find every flavour in this small (maybe not so small) piece of cake. Prepare it whether or not there is a special occasion coming up, or you just want to make yourself a sweet treat. It is perfect with a cup of tea or aromatic coffee, and for children with a cup of milk for afternoon tea. See for yourself 

Ingredients:
dough
180g of flour
80g of rolled oats
100g of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of peanut butter
2 ripe bananas
75g of butter
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
100g of dark chocolate drops
icing:
100g of white chocolate
1 big spoon of peanut butter

Pasta with pepper-tomato sauce and corn and cocktail tomatoes makes a delicious change to ordinary bolognese. You can do this as a vegetarian dish, or add mincemeat just like me. I really like sauce made from vegetables or herb pesto for pasta. My children prefer the meaty variant. I wonder if you will enjoy this type of spaghetti bolognese. We all liked it.

Ingredients (for 4 people)
400g of pasta
500g of minced meat
2 red pepper
400ml of tomato passata
2 tablespoons of oil
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
150g of sweetcorn
cherry tomatoes
a fistful of spinach
1 tablespoon of oregano
salt and pepper
chives

I am sure I have written about how my son likes pancakes and pikelets more than once. Doesn't matter if I make them from vegetables or fruit, he will eat as much as he can anyway and ask for seconds. He eats them with icing sugar (even those made from vegetables). He only makes an exception for American pancakes, which he eats with maple syrup. Today I went a little crazy and I prepared a luxurious version of pancakes with bananas and runny chocolate inside. I recommend them to everyone; it is really difficult to resist them.

Ingredients:
500ml of natural yoghurt
8 tablespoons of flour
3 tablespoons of potato flour
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
1 teaspoon of baking powder
2 teaspoons of caster sugar
2 bananas
8 pieces of chocolate
oil for frying

I think that after the epidemic is over, personal trainers and dieticians will have their hands full. Most of us (I hope) are staying at home, looking after the kids and baking, cooking and keeping the peace. My children treat this time off school as a winter break, and they choose to eat dumplings, pancakes, pikelets and cakes, so all the things that I don't have time for during a typical weekday and which I prepare on weekends and holidays. As parents we also eat these treats with our kids. Today I said 'enough' and I prepared a vegetable snack – courgette in cheesy batter. I served it with a yogurt-garlic sauce. I didn't eat much, because it appears to be my children's favourite snack. Next time I will make it when my kids are at school, and I will eat it all by myself 

Ingredients:
2 small courgettes
100g of breadcrumbs
50g of grated parmesan
1 teaspoon of thyme
1 teaspoon of sweet paprika
salt and pepper
oil for frying
3-4 tablespoons of flour
2 eggs
sauce:
200g of natural yoghurt
2 tablespoons of cottage cheese
1 clove of garlic
3 tablespoons of chopped chives
salt and pepper
