The turkey chatter online is hard to ignore this time of the year when the US is in the throws of their thanksgiving holiday. Was at the butchery on Monday and found they had some turkey legs. Apparently they always have them, but for some reason I’ve never noticed them before. Anyway, I was inspired! Yaaaay!
Just look at those colours! Have you ever had purple cabbage? I had it for the first time two years ago. It was a catered lunch at the office. One of the dishes was a simple coleslaw made with purple cabbage and a sprinkle of pine nuts. It was delish. I can’t say the purple cabbage tastes any different from the regular green one but it makes such a huge difference when food just looks good and appetising.
Pineapple is a nice addition to many different dishes, tried it out in this kachumbari and it was awesome!
I wanted to make this several weeks ago, but I kept forgetting to get a pineapple for it. When I did remember to get one there weren’t any good ones, or they were over priced! The pineapple I bought for 70/- last year is 120/- in the market today. Just wrong!
Moving on swiftly,…
I made this with Mel the day before we left to go upcountry for Christmas. We had dinner at her place. I had a peeled pineapple in my fridge that I hadn’t planned to take with me but couldn’t leave behind because it would spoil, so I took it to her place for dessert.
Something fresh! A great companion for breakfast.
No fuss fruit salad! Just use what you’ve got, don’t overthink it.
