A Summer Delight at The Ground – Veil patties, Mashed potatoes and Gravy
During a beautiful summer day, my family and I visited The Ground restaurant in Hovdala close to Hässleholm, a charming spot offering delicious food and breathtaking views.
With outdoor benches and take-away boxes, we enjoyed a memorable meal of veal patties, mashed potatoes, served with rich gravy and tangy lingonberry jam. The kids absolutely loved it, and the simplicity of sitting outdoors, surrounded by nature, made the experience even more special. The dish was both comforting and flavorful, perfect for the season. Here's my take on this fantastic meal.
A Spectacular Snack: Grilled Sandwiches in a Waffle Iron
But then, I think my husband got a little inspired. Han fick feeling :). We had
some leftover, slightly stale cinnamon buns lying around, and he decided to
throw those into the waffle iron too. The kids loved it! The warm, crispy
cinnamon buns were a big hit, and I have to say, he earned some extra points
with that move.

A Summer of Delicious and Quick Breakfasts
1. Healthy Brown Bread with Sunny-Side-Up Eggs
One of my go-to breakfast options has been a hearty slice of
brown bread topped with a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg. The richness of
the yolk contrasts beautifully with the nutty flavor of the bread, giving me a
nourishing and energizing start to the day. It’s quick to make, full of
protein, and perfect for mornings when I need something wholesome but don’t
have time to spend in the kitchen.
2. Lingongrova Bread with Boiled Chopped Eggs
Another favorite was lingongrova bread—a traditional dark bread with a hint of sweetness—topped with chopped boiled eggs. This is such a classic Swedish combo that I love. The tangy sweetness of the lingonberries in the bread paired with the creamy, soft-boiled eggs creates a delicious balance. It’s a healthy, fiber-rich breakfast that kept me going for hours.
3. Swedish White Sandwich Bun with Cheese and Cucumber
Nothing says simple and classic like a Swedish sandwich bun
topped with cheese and fresh cucumber slices. The soft, white bread is light
and fluffy, and paired with the mild flavor of the cheese and the crispness of
cucumber, it’s refreshing and light. This was my go-to breakfast for days when
I wanted something easy and fresh, and it always left me satisfied without
feeling too full.
A Cup of Tea to Start It All
No matter which breakfast I chose, one thing was constant—a big cup of tea. I always start my mornings with tea, and it’s my little moment of calm before the whirlwind of the day begins. Whether it’s black, green, or a herbal blend, it’s the perfect companion to all of these breakfasts, adding a sense of warmth and relaxation to each meal.
With a summer full of kids’ activities, errands, and time
spent outdoors, these breakfasts helped keep me fueled and energized. I love
how easy each option is to prepare, making them perfect for busy mornings.
