I read this a couple of months ago -- I'm surprised The Kitchen wasn't following this series to begin with...I suppose it's better late than never, though, right?
You can also do sushi with lettuce instead of nori (or simply incorporate it into the roll with the nori), or use the lettuce to eat anything (tabbouleh salad is a fav) taco-style.
Well, it's just my hubby and I, so we've been buying Dulcinea watermelons. Easy to cut, serve, and eat!
Otherwise, I just try to buy melons in manageable sizes, since I'm the one on pr...
Little late to the party, no? I've been doing bento lunches for awhile now -- to appreciate my culture (Filipinos call them "baon"), reduce garbage/food waste, and enjoy lunch in the office again. ...
You could skip the grill cleaning part by using a grill pan -- it'll stow away easily when you're not using it and keeps your food safe from any icky business on the grill!
Three barbecues to head out to and we're bringing deviled eggs to one (special request)...Otherwise, I'm sure we'll eat plenty of grilled goodies with beers poolside at each one!
With all the summer produce, I find myself making smoothies -- it's quick and I can take it "to go." Today's was mango, strawberries, and a frozen banana with a splash of passion fruit-guava-orange...
Well, ever since I was a little kid, I've always eaten it as is, or slightly cold out of the fridge with a spoon. But, I do adore mango salsa and mango-based smoothies, so I guess those would count...
Probably my "Lorena is a witch" doll that a friend got me one year for my birthday (it's in October, hence the Halloween-themed toy). I guess it's supposed to be one of Skipper's (aka one of Barbie...
Only a few things and these are all because I have a small, older dog:
- Must take pets;
- Be on the ground floor; and
- Have a patio.
Also, a dealbreaker now ...
I only started poaching eggs a short while ago (to add some protein to the lovely spring green salads we ate during a recent heat wave) and they weren't difficult to make at all. Just oil the pan a...
