AVOCADO, EGG, AND QUESO FRESCO MINI PIZZAS



What you'll need (serves two):

2 pita breads
1 avocado
salt and pepper
juice from half a lime or lemon
2 large crumbles of queso fresco (if you can't find it, feta works just fine)
2 sprigs of fresh cilantro
2 eggs
hot sauce (Cholula, Tapatio, or Tabasco)

HOW TO MAKE IT:

1. Slice the avocado in half, pop the pit out, and put it in a bowl. Drizzle it with the lime juice and mash it all up with a fork. Throw in some salt and pepper—just however much you're feeling at the moment.

2. Get a pan nice and hot and fry up those eggs so the yolks stay soft.

3. Toast your pita breads, spread that creamy avocado goodness on top, then sprinkle on the cheese. Top it off with the egg and some cilantro. Give it one last little shake of salt and pepper, and if you want a kick, hit it with some hot sauce.

Ramps are already popping up in my garden, which totally reminded me of this soup recipe.😍

Spring Onion and Pea Soup



What you'll need:

2 leeks
2 bunches of spring onions (about 6-8) (you can swap these for ramps if you have them!)
2 cups of peas
2 cups of vegetable broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt
pepper
basil leaves
pumpkin seeds

Heat the oil over medium heat, then toss in the sliced leeks and the white parts of the spring onions. Sauté them for a few minutes until the onions get nice and translucent.
Pour in the broth, then stir in the green parts of the spring onions and the peas. Season it all.



Turn up the heat to bring the soup to a boil, then drop it back down to low. Let it simmer for about 5-6 minutes until the peas are tender.

Use an immersion blender or a regular blender to blitz everything until it's super creamy. Top it off with some basil and pumpkin seeds, and serve it with some toasted bread.

Quick Spinach and Cheese Pie



Get ready! You'll need a 16-inch round baking pan:

4-6 phyllo dough sheets, regular or whole wheat
300g of frozen or fresh sautéed spinach (or Swiss chard)
500g low-fat cottage cheese
200ml thick Greek yogurt
3 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
A pinch of nutmeg
A little black pepper
50g shredded cheese and/or cream cheese

Tear the phyllo sheets into smaller pieces with your hands and set them aside. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
If you're using fresh spinach or chard, give it a quick wash and sauté it in a little butter until it wilts. If you're using the frozen/blanched kind, just make sure you squeeze out all that extra water.



Whisk the eggs, then stir in the salt, cottage cheese, and yogurt. Use a whisk to get it nice and smooth. Chop up the spinach if needed and fold it into the mix. Add the nutmeg and pepper. Now, grab a handful of those torn phyllo pieces and fold them into the mixture, repeating until everything is coated and you've used all the dough.

Pour the whole thing into your greased pan. Top it off with bits of that stronger cheese or cream cheese. Bake covered with parchment paper for about 20 minutes, then ditch the paper and bake for another 15 or so until it looks beautifully golden.

A Super Healthy Banana Split

What you'll need (serves 2):

2 bananas, sliced lengthwise
6 strawberries, sliced up
4 big dollops of low-fat cottage cheese
2 tablespoons of unsalted peanuts

How to make it:

Just lay those bananas out on a plate, then top them off with the cottage cheese and strawberries, and finish everything with a sprinkle of peanuts.

Coastal Style Seafood Stew




inspired by Pelle and Barbier recipes

What you'll need:

2 lbs squid or cuttlefish (plus a little ink if you want that deep color)
~3.5 oz barley
~7 oz lentils
olive oil
3 onions
3-4 cloves of garlic
bay leaf
a bit of fresh rosemary
a small bunch of parsley
~¾ cup white wine
~3 tbsp bourbon
a splash of balsamic vinegar
a can of crushed tomatoes
salt
freshly cracked pepper

First, get your grains going. Boil the barley in one pot, and cook the lentils in another using water infused with some sliced onion, bay leaf, a bit of parsley, and garlic. In a separate heavy pot, prep your seafood stew. Slice the squid into rings or bite-sized chunks and sauté them with finely chopped onion, fresh bay leaves, a sprig of freshly picked rosemary, garlic, parsley, and tomatoes. Add a touch of that ink and deglaze the pan with white wine, finishing it off with a quick splash of bourbon to really lock in the flavors.



Once the stew has thickened up nicely, stir in your cooked barley and lentils. Season with salt and pepper, then let everything simmer together just long enough for all those flavors to marry perfectly.



Serve it hot with a sprinkle of chopped parsley and a nice, sharp cheddar or some aged sheep's cheese on top.

Egg salad made with low-fat cottage cheese.



I've actually cooked up something pretty similar before, but I decided to switch things up with the ratios this time around.😁 I just realized this is probably my 100th recipe on this topic, so there’s really no way I can let it pass without including a vegan option.😍

Pripremite:

Four hard-boiled eggs.
About 8.8 ounces of either fat-free or creamy fresh cheese.
Grab about 3/4 of a cup of regular or Greek yogurt—you can even mix in some sour cream if you’re feeling fancy.
Just one teaspoon of mustard.
sol
Freshly ground pepper.
Chives (or maybe some parsley, dill, or whatever you're feeling)



Boil some eggs, peel them, and chop them up into little cubes. Then, just mix together some cream cheese and yogurt. Toss in a bit of mustard, then hit it with salt and some freshly cracked black pepper. I usually throw in some chopped chives or whatever herbs I have on hand. If you're feeling extra, you can add some finely minced onion or garlic—personally, I think a little bit of chopped celery adds a really nice crunch to it too.
Just mix everything together and serve it on some toast, crackers, or even an oat cracker. (Recipe coming right up!)😁)

Oat, Seed, and Nut Loaf

Just a heads up, this isn't your typical soft, fluffy bread. It’s more like those dense fitness loaves you see at Whole Foods (or my own seed crackers—if you’ve actually tried them, you know what I mean🙂). It’s got a really hearty, grainy texture.😍



What you'll need:

150g rolled oats
125g mixed seeds (sesame, pumpkin, sunflower)
90g flaxseeds (mix of ground and whole)
80g almonds or hazelnuts
half a teaspoon of salt
3 tablespoons of olive or coconut oil

Grab a bowl and mix the oats, seeds, and roughly chopped hazelnuts together. Add the salt. Pour in 350ml of water along with the 3 tablespoons of oil. If the mixture looks a little too dry, just splash in a tiny bit more water. Give it a good stir and let it sit for at least half an hour. Honestly, letting it soak overnight works even better.



Grease a small rectangular loaf pan and press the mixture firmly into it. Bake for about 20 minutes at 350°F. Once that's done, take the loaf out of the pan, pop it directly onto a wire rack, and bake for another 30-40 minutes without the pan. Be patient and wait for it to cool down completely before you try slicing it.

Pro tip: slice it up ahead of time and toss it in the freezer for easy grab-and-go meals. 🙂

So, I was just thinking about how much I miss my absolute favorite breakfast from when I was a kid. 😍 Birchermuesli.

Back around 1900, Dr. Maximilian Bircher-Benner started serving oats mixed with fruit and lemon juice to his patients, which is how it got its name. It really blew up across Europe in the 60s, and my mom started eating it in the 70s before making it a staple in our house.😍

The original recipe relies heavily on grated apples, a few spoonfuls of oats, and some lemon juice, letting it soak overnight. These days though, there are tons of ways to make it—using fresh or dried fruit, adding nuts, yogurt, you name it.



What you'll need:

6 tablespoons quick oats
4 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons milk
juice from one small or half a large lemon
half a banana
3-4 strawberries
2 tablespoons chopped almonds
stevia or honey

Mix the oats with the water, milk, and lemon juice. Give it a good stir, and if it looks too thick, feel free to toss in another tablespoon or two of milk. If squeezing lemons is a hassle or you aren't feeling the milk, a mix of water and yogurt works perfectly fine.
Sweeten it with some stevia or a little honey. Let the oats sit for at least thirty minutes, though honestly, it’s best to prep it the night before and let it chill in the fridge overnight. In the morning, just pull it out, top it with your fruit and chopped almonds, and you're good to go.

Fresh Ricotta Gnocchi



What you'll need:

About 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
14 oz fresh ricotta cheese
3 large or 4 small egg yolks
Half a teaspoon of salt
A pinch of freshly cracked pepper

First, grab a bowl and mix the ricotta, flour, pepper, and salt together. Whisk those egg yolks lightly with a fork, pour them into the mix, and knead everything until you've got a dough.

(Pro tip: You can toss in about 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan, or even some chopped spinach if you're feeling fancy.)

If you want to be a bit healthier, you can totally swap in whole wheat flour instead.



Roll the dough out into long ropes—kind of like little sausages—and then just slice them into bite-sized pieces with a knife. Feel free to roll them between your palms if you want them to look extra cute. Drop them into a pot of boiling salted water. Once they float to the top, let them cook for just one more minute, then serve them up with whatever sauce you're craving.



I'll also be posting my oat gnocchi recipe once I get the photos organized.😍

http://kuharica.kontin.info/zobeni-omlet-sa-spekom/ I whipped this up for breakfast this morning. I made one little tweak: I used smoked chicken breast instead.
Honestly, it was delicious. 😲 I think I’ve officially found my new favorite breakfast. 🙂

Gonna be baking this all week... Most "healthy" desserts are loaded with carbs, so this is a total win.

Oatmeal and Fresh Cheese Gnocchi

What you'll need:

4.2 oz rolled oats
10.5 oz low-fat cottage cheese
2 egg yolks
a pinch of salt

If your cottage cheese is a little chunky, just run it through a fine mesh strainer to get it smooth. Mix in those 2 egg yolks along with the 120g of ground oats. Add some salt and start mixing it all together. If you’re feeling fancy, feel free to toss in some chopped chives, or maybe some spinach, Swiss chard, or wild garlic. If the dough feels a bit too wet while you're working it, just sprinkle in a little more ground oats until it feels right.



Roll the mixture into long logs and use a knife (or just your hands, I'm not picky) to cut them into individual gnocchi. Drop them into a pot of boiling salted water. Once they float to the top, give them another 2-3 minutes to finish up before serving.

Arugula Salad with Hard-Boiled Eggs

Honestly, I think I actually broke a sweat just getting this meal together today! 😁
I am absolutely obsessed with salads—there are just endless ways to mix and match flavors, right? You can never really get bored!



Here’s what you’ll need:

3 hard-boiled eggs
1 large red bell pepper
1 large fresh cucumber
3 pickles
5-6 black olives
a handful of cooked chickpeas
arugula
seasoning: a pinch of salt, good quality olive oil, and some fresh lemon juice

Just wash everything that needs washing, chop it all up, and toss it into a big bowl!

Gastronomy Contest Entry:

Avocado, Lentil, and Asparagus Spread

I actually got the idea from Pelle's spread, but I played around with the ratios a bit—swapping out pistachios for almonds and tossing in some grated Pecorino. 😳



What you'll need:

1 perfectly ripe avocado
a bunch of asparagus
half a bunch of ramps
a few tablespoons of toasted almonds
a couple tablespoons of grated Pecorino (if you're feeling fancy)
olive oil
a pinch of salt
green peppercorns in brine

First, cook the lentils in vegetable broth with a splash of olive oil, then push them through a fine sieve. Mix that lentil puree with the ripe avocado, the ramps, and the almonds. Throw everything into a blender and whiz it until it's nice and smooth. Season it with those green peppercorns and stir in the finely grated Pecorino.



Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and chop the rest up. Sauté the middle parts in olive oil for about 2 minutes, then toss the tips in with the hot asparagus just for a second before pulling everything off the heat.



Fold the avocado-lentil-almond-ramp mixture into the asparagus and give it one quick pulse in the blender. I actually set some of the asparagus aside just so you could actually see it in the spread. If you want to meal prep, you can put the mix in jars and sterilize them in a water bath.

I served mine on pumpkin bread with poached eggs—some runny, some a bit firmer. (If anyone's curious, I’ll post those recipes on my blog soon!)

So, I was thinking about this the other day—you know how sometimes you just crave something incredibly decadent, like a rich, velvety dessert, but then you realize you’re sticking to a plant-based diet? It’s such a struggle! You want that deep, dark chocolate hit, but you don't want all the dairy slowing you down. Well, I finally cracked the code on a vegan chocolate tart that is absolutely out of this world. Honestly, if you told me there wasn't a single drop of cream or butter in here, I wouldn't have believed you for a second. It’s just pure, unadulterated chocolate bliss. Isn't it funny how the simplest ingredients can end up being the most luxurious? I made this little masterpiece recently, and let me tell you, it was a total game-changer. It’s smooth, it’s intense, and it hits that sweet spot perfectly. If you've been looking for a way to satisfy those heavy chocolate cravings without breaking your plant-based streak, you seriously need to give this a shot. Who says you can't have your cake—or rather, your tart—and eat it too?

Here’s what you’ll need to get that base just right:

Just a quick note on the measurements—I'm looking at about 5 ounces of carrots here!
So, I was thinking about breakfast this morning—you know how it goes, staring at the pantry like it’s a puzzle you can’t solve—and I kept coming back to this one thing. Just a simple 2-ounce serving of whole grain oats. Or, honestly, if you're in a rush and don't want to deal with the extra work, rolled oats work just fine too! Is there anything better than a warm bowl of oats to start the day? I really don't think so.
Just 60 grams of fresh cheese (keep it dairy-free if you're fasting!)
Just one egg? Seriously? Is that all we're working with here? I mean, I love an egg as much as the next person—they’re basically the ultimate American kitchen staple—but talking about just a single one feels like we're starting a marathon with a single step. What are we even doing with it? A tiny little omelet? A single poached egg over some toast? It feels almost too simple, doesn't it? Or maybe there's a hidden genius in the simplicity that I'm just totally missing out on. What do you guys think? Are we going minimal or am I overthinking this?
Just a tiny little teaspoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt! That’s really all you need. Simple, right? Sometimes the most basic ingredients make all the difference.

Making this:
You don't even really "knead" this dough—it’s more like you just toss all the ingredients together and press them right into the pan. It’s so much easier than dealing with sticky dough that sticks to everything, right? For the carrots, you can grate them by hand, but honestly, if you want to save yourself the trouble, just throw them in the food processor and pulse them until they're just right. You'll also want to take your oats and give them a quick whirl in the coffee grinder to get them finely crushed. Once that's done, mix everything with the rest of your ingredients and use a damp spoon to smooth it out over some parchment paper. Pro tip: make sure to slightly lift up the edges so they can act as a little wall to hold the filling in later! Pop it into a 350°F oven for about 10 minutes, and while that's baking away, you can get started on prepping your filling.

With spinach!



Filling:
So, I was just looking at this recipe and it calls for about 14 ounces of fresh spinach. Now, isn't that just the most deceptive thing you've ever heard? You see that big, beautiful pile of greens sitting on the cutting board and you think, "Yeah, I can totally eat all of that!" But then you throw it into a hot pan with a little garlic and olive oil... and poof! It practically vanishes into thin air. It’s like magic, but not the fun kind where you get a rabbit out of a hat—more like the kind where your grocery budget disappears right before your eyes! Seriously though, does anyone else feel like they need to buy an entire garden just to have one decent side dish for dinner?
So, I was just sitting here thinking about my kitchen staples, and honestly, can we talk about how much I rely on a good block of low-fat cottage cheese? I’m talking about that classic, 5.3-ounce serving—you know, that perfect little hit of protein that keeps you going. It's such a simple thing, isn't it? Just a humble container of plain, low-fat cheese, but it’s a total lifesaver when you need something quick and light. Does anyone else find themselves reaching for the same basic ingredients every single morning, or am I just stuck in a routine? Anyway, just one of those small, essential things on my mind today!
Just two eggs. Honestly, sometimes you just need to get back to the basics, right? It’s funny how we overcomplicate everything, but there's something so incredibly satisfying about keeping it simple like that. Just two eggs. That's it.
Salt, pepper, and nutmeg—the holy trinity! Honestly, isn't it wild how much those three little ingredients can completely transform a dish? You could be making something super simple, like a basic creamy pasta or even just some roasted veggies, and suddenly everything just *clicks*. It’s like magic, right? I feel like people sometimes overcomplicate cooking with twenty different spices, but if you nail that balance of salt, pepper, and a tiny hint of nutmeg, you're already halfway to a gourmet meal. Does anyone else feel like nutmeg is such an underrated superstar in the kitchen? It adds this subtle warmth that just makes everything taste more... cozy? I don't know how to explain it!

So, here’s the secret to getting that perfect texture: you want to quickly blanch the spinach in boiling water just until it wilts, then make sure you squeeze out every last bit of moisture. Seriously, don't skip the draining part! Once that's done, grab a bowl and mix together two eggs, some farmer's cheese, your favorite seasonings, and that lovely wilted spinach. Then, you just stuff that mixture into your par-baked crust. Pop the whole thing back into the oven for another 15 to 20 minutes—you're looking for that gorgeous golden-brown finish. Just a little tip, though: let it sit for a few minutes before you start slicing. It gives the filling time to set so it doesn't just fall apart on your plate. Trust me, it makes all the difference!

If you slice this thing into eight pieces, you're looking at just 91 calories per serving! Isn't that something?
I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch that! It looks like you might have hit "send" a little too early or maybe there was a typo? If you were trying to share something specific or ask a question, please go ahead and let me know! I'm all ears and ready to dive into whatever you've got on your mind.
I’m just going to leave this right here.
I’m sorry, I didn't quite catch that! It looks like there might have been a typo or some missing text in your message. Could you please send it again? I'd love to help once I know what you need!

So, I was just sitting here thinking about zucchini... isn't it funny how one vegetable can totally take over your life once it's in season? You know that feeling when you go to the farmer's market and suddenly everything is green and crunchy? Anyway, I’ve been obsessing over recipes lately. There are just so many ways to make them! Whether you're sautéing them with some garlic or maybe tossing them into a savory bread, they are such a blank canvas. Does anyone else find themselves staring at a pile of summer squash wondering what on earth to do with it? Honestly, I could talk about zucchini all day. What's your favorite way to prep them?



Filling:
So, I was just sitting here thinking about how much easier life would be if we could all just snap our fingers and have prep work done instantly. I’m looking at this pile of 8.8 ounces of grated zucchini—just a big, fresh heap of it—and my mind starts racing. You know that feeling? When you have the ingredients ready, but the possibilities feel endless? Is it a quick veggie fritter situation for lunch? Or maybe some hidden zucchini bread for the kids? Honestly, once you've got the grating out of the way, the hard part is over! Now comes the fun part: deciding what to do with it. What are you guys making with your extra veggies today?
Just a quick thought on my morning snack—I’ve been sticking to about 100 grams of fat-free cottage cheese lately. Honestly, is there anything more straightforward and reliable? It’s one of those simple things that just works when you need something light but filling.
Just three eggs. That’s it. Honestly, sometimes you have to wonder—is that really all we need? It sounds so simple, right? Just a quick breakfast and you're out the door. But then you start thinking about how much potential is packed into something that basic. Is there a "perfect" way to do it? Scrambled, poached, over-easy? I feel like everyone has their own intense debate about it!
Salt and pepper. That’s it. The absolute essentials. Honestly, can you even imagine a kitchen without them? It feels wrong just thinking about it!

The process stays pretty much the same, but here’s my little secret: grate the zucchini first and toss it with some salt. Let it sit for about ten minutes while you're busy prepping the base. Once that's done, I like to give them a quick rinse to get rid of the extra salt and then just squeeze the life out of them with my bare hands. Honestly, why bother with the extra moisture? Any leftover liquid just drags out the cooking time, and who has time for that? As for the filling ratios, feel free to play around with those however you like—it's your kitchen!

Lemon Chicken with Sweet Potato and Nettle



What you'll need:

8 chicken pieces (thighs and drumsticks)
2 organic lemons
3-4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
salt
freshly ground pepper
a little rosemary
1 small head of garlic
2 medium sweet potatoes
500g nettles

Season the meat with salt and pepper, then drizzle it with the mixture of soy sauce, honey, and olive oil. Honestly, if you're not feeling the sweetness, you can totally skip the honey and soy sauce.
Slice up the lemon and top each piece of chicken with a slice. Squeeze the rest of the lemon juice over everything. Toss about 4 or 5 cloves of garlic around the meat and add the rosemary. Pour in a splash of water, let it sit for a bit, and get your oven preheated to 400°F.



Bake for about 40 minutes, and turn on the convection setting toward the end to get things crispy.

Peel the sweet potatoes and chop them into bite-sized chunks. Sauté some thinly sliced garlic in olive oil, toss in the sweet potatoes, and add a splash of water. Right near the end, throw in the cleaned and chopped nettles. Cover it up and let it simmer until the sweet potatoes are soft. Season with salt and pepper, and if you're feeling fancy, a little extra drizzle of olive oil on top.

I recently stumbled upon this yogurt recipe and have made it a few times now. It’s genuinely great—refreshing, and if you sweeten it with some honey, it’s perfect. 😍

I found several versions online, but my first attempt followed this one: http://jubistacha.blogspot.com/2011/...klincicem.html. Since then, I've been playing around with the spices.

Vanilla Spiced Yogurt

1 tsp turmeric
1 vanilla bean (extract works too)
3 cardamom pods (or cloves; skip the spices entirely if that's your thing)
¾ cup water
1 quart fresh milk
2 tbsp yogurt
honey to taste

Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Toss the seeds, the pod, the turmeric, and the other spices into a saucepan with the water. Boil over high heat until it reduces to a thick syrup (about 15 minutes). Stir frequently toward the end so it doesn't burn.
Pour that syrup into the fresh milk. Mix it well and bring to a boil.
Take it off the heat and strain it to get rid of the spice bits. Let it cool down slightly. You're looking for about 115°F to 125°F. If you don't own a thermometer, just use the finger test: when you can hold your finger in the milk for 30 seconds without it burning you, you've hit the mark. Stir in the two tablespoons of yogurt, pour the mixture into a clean glass jar, and leave it somewhere warm for 8–10 hours.
If you want a thicker consistency, carefully drain off the excess whey. Stir in the honey. This is best served sweetened.

I tried it with cloves once, but the cardamom version is much better. You could also throw in ginger or anise—whatever. Give it a shot and let me know. 😁

As for calories, I just count it like standard yogurt (plus whatever honey I end up adding).

Carrot and Tahini Spread

Ingredient ratios are up to you. I tweak this one to my liking—personally, I prefer more tahini flavor, and keeping the calories down isn't a bad trade-off for the taste. If you want to cut the fat even further, swap the oil for some creamy Neufchatel cheese.

Ingredients:

10.5 oz carrots
A few garlic cloves
1 oz tahini
0.7 oz olive oil
Salt and pepper
Cumin and parsley

Prep the carrots, coat them lightly in olive oil, and toss them in the oven with the garlic at 400°F. If the edges start charring too fast, just throw some foil over them.
Once they're done, let them cool down slightly. Throw everything into a blender or hit it with an immersion blender and voilà!
I usually eat this with pita bread or homemade crackers. It’s also great mixed with Mamma's ajvar.😍

Oatmeal and Apple Cake



What you'll need:

4 large eggs
100g brown sugar (or feel free to swap in stevia, maple syrup, or honey if you want to keep it a bit lighter)
120g ground nuts
120g oat flour (you can just blend some oats or even use regular or whole wheat flour)
50g poppy seeds or carob
2 tsp baking powder
2 apples
2-3 tbsp coconut oil or whatever oil you have on hand

First, beat the egg yolks with your sweetener. Toss in the ground nuts (I went with walnuts), the oat flour, poppy seeds, and the baking powder. If poppy seeds aren't really your thing, just skip them—it'll still be good!

Stir in the oil. Then, gently fold in the whipped egg whites and finally those grated apples.



Pour everything into a rectangular pan lined with parchment paper. If you're feeling fancy, sprinkle some chopped nuts or sliced almonds on top. Bake for about 30 minutes at 350°F. Just poke it with a toothpick to make sure it's done.

Seeded Rye Bread

Honestly, this is my go-to snack with some peanut butter whenever I know I’m too busy to actually cook something decent. 🙂

What you need:
- 12 oz rye flour (I sometimes mix in spelt, barley, or oat flour, so just play around with the combo 🙂 )
- 3.5 oz rolled oats
- 3.5 oz assorted seeds (I usually throw in flax, sesame, pumpkin, and sunflower)
- A teaspoon of aluminum-free baking soda
- A pinch of salt
- About 17 oz sparkling water

How to make it:
Just mix all the dry stuff together and slowly pour in the water. Dump it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake it for about 50 minutes at 400 degrees.
