Hello dear friends,
Since Sunday, I have been consuming bagels left over from breakfast and thrown in the freezer to prevent mold. As a matter of fact, it works for me more like this. I thaw the bagel I took out of the freezer in the microwave and use as much as I want and freeze it again.
Pazartesi bagel pizza, Tuesday bagel sandwich and this morning I overdosed and made simitchettas I made up myself :) Everything is very simple, even with sleepy eyes, carefully chop all the ingredients, turn on the oven and bake. I just made it for myself, so I only used a quarter of it. 1 big bagel will be good for 4 people.
Stale bagels are softened and flavored by olive oil and tomatoes. The good thing is that you can quickly prepare and consume it not only for breakfast, but also for all meals.
I'm sure the name Simitchetta will sound interesting and funny to your guests. And they'll love it when they taste it...
A little kitchen secret for you, always have some fresh thyme and rosemary at home for cooking. Rosemary and thyme go very well with almost all dishes. Because they are fresh, even if you prepare the simplest meal in the world, it looks like it was made by a chef.
I grow my own rosemary in the bright corner of my kitchen. I've planted the thyme seeds and I'm waiting impatiently for them to come out.
Love…
