Feeling hungry is something that I just don't enjoy at all.

So I always try to have some extra goodies (backup) in my pantry + fridge that can be easy to put together. Just a few simply ingredients such us; dry pasta, polenta, lentils, rice, and a few different types of flours. Plus a good douse of fresh greens, potatoes,tomatoes, onions, root vegetables and of course some fruits (in season) can instantly make the process of preparing + cooking nourishing food at home more easy. 

I also like to have chicken breasts and prawns or seafood mix in the fridge as they are effortless to cook too. Believe me, it's amazing the variety of dishes that can be prepared using simply ingredients.

However, on Friday evening, we decided that our Saturday would start early. J. and I made plans to work on our little garden.So we spent our Saturday morning in manual labor, preparing our garden for the new season.  We are no experts... but when comes to gardening we try our best. After finishing our gardening, we sat next to the fence and observed all we have done. We were tired and hungry. So preparing a pizza seems just the
perfect reward to finish the day. 

I hope everybody is well and happy!
