Braised beef cooked in two wines and citrus sauce

This recipe is a good example of what "comfort food" means to me during the Winter months! Tender beef slowly cooked in a luscious wine and citrus sauce to serve on a Sunday for a family-friendly meal! The options for an accompaniment are numerous, from fried to mashed potatoes, various kinds of pasta, a fluffy rice pilaf or just steamed Winter vegetables. *** The recipe is equally delicious if you replace the beef with 700-800 gr. of pork fillet cut in slices which of course will need less time to cook

A delicious, filling and nutritious tart to enjoy any day of the week as a light lunch or dinner, snack or to pack and take with you at a picnic. The classic combination is spinach and leeks only but here we combine these two popular vegetables with fennel which works with the rest perfectly! For a more strict vegetarian version of the tart just omit the cheese

The wholewheat pasta makes things even lighter and you end up with a very family and calorie-friendly meal
