Teraz jem tylko zdrowo!
I used to eat a lot of junk food but I felt it had a serious effect on my health. So now if I get hungry between meals I have some grapes or oranges. In summer I prefer blackberries, raspberries and strawberries. I feel much more fit and healthy now.

Najłatwiejsza potrawa pod słońcem!
In my opinion, the easiest dish to make is spaghetti Bolognese. You don’t need too many ingredients and you’ll find a recipe in every cookery book. First, you should prepare the sauce. Chop the onions and press the garlic. Pour olive-oil into a large saucepan, add the onions, and fry them until they change colour. Now, crumble minced beef into the onions and fry it until it’s completely done. Add the tomatoes and spices: a pinch of salt, pepper, oregano and basil. Now, let the whole lot simmer for half an hour. Then you should prepare the pasta. Boil a lot of water; add some olive-oil and salt. When the water is boiling, add the pasta. When it’s ready rinseit under water.

Jestem wegetarianką!
I’ve been a vegetarian for two years. I decided to change my eating habits because I love animals and I don’t want to have my share in killing them. Besides, I believe that a vegetarian diet is really healthy. I used to eat sausages and ham but now even the smell of fried bacon or roast beef makes me feel ill. I eat a lot of dairy products, vegetables and fruit. In my kitchen you’ll always find carrots, celery, broccoli, grapefruits, peaches, bananas and many other healthy products. And of course I’ve got soya beans because they are very rich in protein.

Śniadanie to podstawa
I can’t imagine starting my day without breakfast. I usually have pancakes or fried eggs or scrambled eggs and some cheese with wholemeal bread, or toast with honey and cottage cheese. I never eat cornflakes and cereals because I hate milk, so I drink a lot of yoghurt instead.

Jak tam szkolne stołówki? Różnie to bywa!
What I like best about my school is the canteen. The food is fresh and tasty, and we always have some choice. We can choose between two soups and three main courses. I especially like veal chops and goulash. Last week we even had stuffed turkey, which was really delicious. We also have a good choice of desserts.
