raclette cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: mozzarella

Low-fat cheese reduces calories while mozzarella is more accessible.

cured meats

🥗Healthier: lean turkey

💰Cheaper: ham

Lean turkey offers a healthier protein option, while ham is often less expensive.

white wine

🥗Healthier: chicken broth

💰Cheaper: water

Chicken broth adds flavor without alcohol, and water is a budget-friendly alternative.

Prepare an electric tabletop grill with small pans and a stone for grilling.

Heat the grill to maximum heat for about 15 minutes before grilling.

Slice raclette cheese into thick pieces, smaller than the size of the small pan.

Chop onions, zucchini, and white mushrooms into very small pieces.

Grill vegetables first until tender, then add cheese on top to melt.

Scrape melted cheese off the pan and enjoy with hard-boiled potatoes and fried meat.

Serve pickled cucumbers and sweet corn in bowls.

For dessert, prepare pancakes and serve with chocolate.
