Stuffed nest

This is how we do: we don’t need much, we need it to look great. So the ingredients for this recipe are quite basic (round small bread, Iberian ham –well it doesn’t have to be Iberian, but a nice one–, an egg and some cheese to spread over it), but the result is really good. Just open the bread, take out the crumb, put the ingredients inside and let’s go to the oven.

It also looks really good but not so complicated! You just need tortillas for the outside and chicken breasts, lettuce, cheese and Caesar sauce for putting inside. For the chicken: you can make it grilled or fried.

Nutella croissants as a dessert

Again, the pastry is our friend: get it from the supermarket (if it’s round, perfect; if not, take a plate as a template and a pizza cutter to make the round shape), cut it as if it was a cake, put a little bit of Nutella inside and roll it baby, you got this. The fancy look: sprinkle the croissants with powdered sugar.
