If no one in your house likes the end pieces on your store bought bread, here’s what you can do with them… Meatballs are a happy food! I like eating them. I like them even better when I’m sharing them with friends… Leftover meat can be great for sandwiches depending on how you made it,… On with the pesto! (^_^) Pineapple is a nice addition to many different dishes, tried it out in this kachumbari and it was awesome! Continuing with pesto dishes — pesto as marinade! Here we go — the first quick meal using the pesto! Nothing wrong with a little pesto in your omelette 🙂 I have come to notice that most restaurants have just a couple of signature dishes in their menu and then the rest is the usual stuff. Yup, even the fancy and expensive places. They may serve it creatively a name it something fancy to match their theme but in the end a lamb chop is a lamb chop is a lamb chop! #justsaying So I’ve been looking for healthy snacks lately, ones that I can make at home. Hubby likes to snack a lot so he buys a lot of pastries. I would like us to start taking some healthy stuff too when we snack. December is never long enough, we spend all year waiting for it, saving our vacation time, then when we get there it comes and goes in a flash. Maybe it’s because we just have too much fun (^_^) Do you remember the foods you used to make up when you were in high school or college? Well Janice does, follow along as she tells us about it… Get to know Janice… You can buy ready made mixed spices for anything these days. The market is full of spice mixes for all kinds of dishes. They are great if you are in a hurry and don’t want to have think about which spices to use. I like to experiment though so I tend to get the individual spices and herbs. Starting back up with something easy – bread rolls. Hello! Yes, I am still cooking,… well, not much lately but here and there. I think celebrating that blogiversary put me in a relaxed mode. It’s a major milestone for me. Didn’t know exactly how this would turn out when I started. It’s been a lot of fun. Finally settled on the giveaway. Not only was this fun to do, it turned out great! Try it out with your own combination of herbs and spices and see how it turns out. Definitely one for repeating. Wow! It’s been year already! If you’re bored with having plain old rice with your beans, try this twist… This is an awesome and unique recipe. Will take a bit of time to prepare and it will be well worth it in the end, check it out… Get to know Shiro… Make lots of this and you can can cook up the leftovers for breakfast the next morning — delicious and versatile! This broccoli recipe from Melissa is a gem! Check it out, give it a try and pass it on! Get to know Melissa… So I’d like to start doing some guest posts every now and then, here is why… I do a fair amount of cooking. Mostly, I’m learning, experimenting, trying new things and some old things. One meal I haven’t learned how to make yet is pilau. This is my first attempt. This started out really awkward but ended well. I know it looks funny, especially the mash, the photo just doesn’t do it justice,… More adventure from my fruitcake loving husband,… Served this with a squeeze of lemon, supper delicious! Try it out… Dill is not a herb I use, in fact I think this is the first batch I’v ever purchased. So far I’ve tried them in an omelette, I think that went well. When I was ready to do these meatballs it seemed like a good idea use the dill here too… This was breakfast! I know, sounds crazy, who has pasta or breakfast?!! Well, we did on this morning. This would also make an awesome light dinner dish, so check it out… So, it’s githeri but not quite! And it is delish! If i haven’t said it already, pumpkin leaves are my favourite leafy green veggie, they are awesome when cooked with ground veggies, thats my preferred way to have them, but this is nice as well. What do you do when you get home late and you still have to make dinner? Well, it would be nice to pass by some place and get something to go, on the way home but that’s not always possible. Here’s a nice way to have those sausages you love, if you’re tired of doing what you always do. This will also turn out nice with breakfast beans I think. Here we go again! This time we put back the lemon grates and added a few other dried fruits… It’s always exciting to visit mom, every time I see her I learn something new in her kitchen. Sometimes he has ideas, here is one that I tried out. He loves those raisins in his cake… On porridge and humour — the two absolutely go together.
