Cold-Brew Oats

Salads

Coleslaw

Shredded cabbage and carrots dressed in a tangy, slightly sweet mayo-based dressing with a kick of vinegar. The secret is salting the cabbage first to draw out water — otherwise it turns soggy within an hour.

Cottage Cheese Flatbread with cottage cheese, eggs and Italian herbs — USA recipe

🇺🇸USAMedium

Breakfast and Brunch

Cottage Cheese Flatbread

High-protein flatbread made entirely from cottage cheese and eggs — no flour, no yeast, no kneading. This two-ingredient base blends into a smooth batter, bakes into a golden sheet with crispy edges and a soft, pliable center. Perfect as a keto pizza crust, a wrap for lunch prep, or torn into pieces and dipped into hummus. It has to cool completely on the baking sheet before you peel it off the paper; that wait is not counted in the time. Each serving has about 17 g of protein, making it one of the easiest high-protein breads you can bake.

Cottage Cheese Ice Cream

The viral high-protein frozen dessert: full-fat cottage cheese blended completely smooth with honey, peanut butter, and dark chocolate, then frozen into a scoopable, cheesecake-like ice cream. No machine, no eggs, no custard — over 20g of protein per serving and none of the graininess, as long as you use full-fat cottage cheese and a liquid sweetener.

Cottage Cheese Protein Bagels

A no-yeast, no-boil bagel built on a three-ingredient dough: blended cottage cheese, self-rising flour, and an egg. Each bagel carries around 12 g of protein, bakes in under half an hour, and holds for days. The crumb is denser than a classic boiled bagel and closer to a soft roll.

Cranberry Sauce (Homemade, from Fresh Cranberries) with cranberries and orange — USA recipe

Cranberry Sauce (Homemade, from Fresh Cranberries)

Cranberry sauce, here the whole-berry kind made from fresh cranberries, is a sweet-tart American sauce of cranberries, sugar and orange juice that sits next to roast turkey on the Thanksgiving table; the jellied version from a can is its supermarket cousin. You simmer the berries for about 8 minutes until two thirds of them have burst, stir in the orange zest off the heat, and let the sauce cool, when the pectin in the berries sets it to a soft jam. It makes about 500 ml, 8 servings. The 15 minutes are active time; cooling takes about an hour, and the sauce keeps in the fridge for up to 10 days, so you can make it 3 days before the dinner.

Crêpe Suzette with plain flour, eggs and milk — France recipe

🇫🇷FranceMedium

Sweet Dishes

Crêpe Suzette

Crêpe Suzette is the most theatrical dessert in the French classical repertoire: paper-thin crêpes folded into quarters and bathed in a sauce of caramelized sugar, fresh orange juice, orange zest, and butter, finished with Grand Marnier poured into the pan and set alight at the table. The blue flames burn for 15 to 20 seconds, cooking off the alcohol while leaving the deep orange-liqueur flavor in the sauce. The dish was invented, by accident or by design, in Monte Carlo in 1895 — legend credits Henri Charpentier, a 14-year-old assistant waiter who accidentally ignited the sauce while preparing it for the Prince of Wales. The Prince, enchanted by both the flames and the result, named the dish after Suzette, a young woman at the table. Whether or not the story is true, the dish has remained the definitive French dessert-as-performance for over a century.

Croque Madame with bread, ham and Gruyère — France recipe

🇫🇷FranceMedium

Breakfast and Brunch

Croque Madame

A Croque Monsieur — ham, Gruyère, and béchamel on toasted white bread — with a fried egg on top. The name comes from the egg supposedly resembling a woman's hat. The sandwich itself has been on Parisian café menus since the early 1900s. What separates a good one from a mediocre one is the béchamel: not as a hidden layer inside, but also spread generously on top, where it bubbles and browns under the grill and becomes something closer to a savory soufflé crust than a sauce. The egg yolk, broken at the table, does the rest.
