A homemade refreshing dessert with melon and mint. For the best flavor, it is best to use a ripe melon. As a finish, top it with some mint leaves, melon balls and some melon juice. The mousse needs to rest in the fridge for 2-3 hours, so it is best to do it long in advance before serving time.

A homemade lemon and parsnip soup is easy and quick to prepare. The parsnip gives a sweet taste to the lemon and leek combination. If you like the soup sweeter take a bit less of the lemon juice instead.
This is a fast dish to make in the middle of the week with chicken fillets. To make the chicken tender do not have too high temperature when you fry it. You can prepare other sauces if you do not like garlic, or fry the chicken in a marinade. Another variation to cook the chicken is to put it on the grill.
This is a traditional recipe of the famous Alsatian flammekueche also known as tarte flambée that my grand-parents used to do every Sunday. They are traditionally baked in a wood-fire oven which makes a crispy bottom with slightly burned edges with a creamy topping. But don´t worry with modern ovens they are also easy and tasty to prepare. Using a wood-fire oven was part of the Sunday evening entertainment at my grand-parents.
