Few people can afford to stand in the kitchen for hours and cook their favourite dishes. No wonder then that recipes for quick, simple and minimalistic dishes are becoming more and more popular. We present the best of them!
Potato dumplings are a great option for a healthy, tasty dinner. This dish consists of just 4 ingredients:
Wash and cut yams and roast for about half an hour until tender. Then cool them, peel and crush with a potato masher to a smooth paste. Add flour and Parmesan cheese and knead. Roll out a thin sheet and cut out patties about 1.5-2 cm long
At this time boil water with salt and throw the kopytka into it. It is important to stir constantly, because they may stick to the bottom. Remove after a few minutes. Before serving, the dumplings can be sprinkled with Parmesan cheese. Ready!
Another healthy and nutritious dish just in time for summer is pasta with spinach. It is perfect for people who do not have time for long cooking. You will need:
Cook pasta. Cut peeled onion into cubes and fry in a pan, adding butter. Add the spinach and pour a little water into the pan. Heat the whole dish under the lid, then strain the excess water. Pour in the cream, season and boil. Pour the sauce over pasta and sprinkle with cheese. Enjoy!
Zucchini is one of the favorite summer vegetables. It is nutritious, healthy and very tasty. A great idea for dinner is soup with zucchini tagliatelle, which is made in just a few minutes. You will need:
Cut the onion into medium-sized cubes and fry in butter or oil. Cut the zucchini into coarse cubes (leave the long half for pasta) and the peeled potatoes into small cubes. Put zucchini aside, put potatoes in a pot, pour water. Add the onion, chopped parsley and spices and cook for about 15 minutes
Then add the zucchinis and cook for another 10-15 minutes until they are soft. After this time whiten the soup with cream and mix to a cream. Season to taste. Using a vegetable peeler, cut thin, long slices of uncut zucchini, which you put into the hot soup a few minutes before serving (the idea is to make them soft). Enjoy!
Summer dinner is all about the power of fresh vegetables, which are especially readily available during this period. Broccoli is a very popular one. To make shanks with broccoli you should prepare:

Place broccoli florets in hot water and cook until tender, about 7-10 minutes. Place the roasted chicken on the cooked rice. Place the broccoli next to it. Pour the butter and breadcrumbs over the whole dish. Enjoy!
