Asparagus and brie quiche (Quiche de esparragos y queso Brie)

 Some times  people tell me     I make  many sweet recipes  but  I love many savory  things, I love quiches, pizzas, chicken, stews and soups!  I love salads too! Only sometimes happens I can't  take pictures  to all I make (especially the last time) because  you need time to take good pictures. You know this year has been especially difficult for me. Still sometimes is difficult use my right arm but I feel better. Well, I made this quiche with Brie cheese a long time ago and I found the photos.  And the crust is so good  with toasted sesame seeds.

Tomato cherry and herb puff tarts (Tartas de tomate cherry y albahaca en masa de hoja)

Finally I am here to finish  the post of these Tomato cherry and basil little tarts. This month has been crazy and sometimes a mess  with my appointments to the kinesiologist and everything else, Im going three times a week. But the truth is never very quiet around here. This recipe is vegetarian and we all loved it, the good thing is with puff pastry and they are made fast, you can vary the fillings but I had the tomatoes because suddenly I crave a recipe and so it was with this one. I made this recipe in these smaller rectangular molds but it can be done in round or one long one, that is the one you have on hand or you like more. Take advantage that in many places it is still summer and you can get beautiful tomatoes and basil. In any case, here in Chile, cherry tomatoes are usually found year-round. Love and hugs for everyone. Thanks for coming. Source:  Delicious magazine UK Ingredients 250 grams cherry tomatoes  Olive oil to drizzle 375 grams ready rolled puff ...

Broccoli, carrots and zucchini clafoutis (mini clafoutis aux legumes)

Really I dont know why sometimes the days really fly, the seasons  and all pass very fast,here we are already in Autumn although still is hot.  Of course nights and mornings are really more cold and I love it but sometimes you do not know how dressed. In case someone missed me I was more than a week without internet or wifi, not only could not do any post, (with my phone reviewed some sites) could not do anything in the bank or see my virtual library.
