Filipino Chicken Adobo

Filipino Chicken Adobo

What is Filipino Chicken Adobo, good question I had to research it myself. The good news is I did the research so you don’t have to. All you have to do is Enjoy!
What I can say is there is a lot of Garlic and a strong Vinegar component. My friend Vilma Says there must be Carrots and Potatoes and a little Sugar, to balance the acidity.
I hope I’ve done her proud with my version, so click the link and come check it out.

Arugula with pear & blue cheese

Arugula with pear & blue cheese

Salads can be as simple as a dressing and some leaf greens, or they can have 16 different ingredients. Some fine dining restaurants might take a couple hours to put together a salad. On the other hand I can throw one together in about 5 minutes for lunch, who has time lol.

      This Arugula with Pear & Blue Cheese Salad is on the easier side but with a few extras. If you decide to add these special touches I’m sure your guests will notice.

Mediterranean Cauliflower Salad

As soon as you put the word… Mediterranean … in front of a food title I get hungry. Say it slowly with me… Mediterranean       Cauliflower       Salad…      mmmmmm.

A great Salad for a weekend party or BBQ even a busy sports night later that week. And tastes better after sitting for a while so you know the leftovers are going to taste great.

Candied pecans with turmeric

Want a snack with just a hint of exotic flavour, just that hint of spice try Candied Pecans with Turmeric. These are not like the store bought Candied Nuts that taste like they have had a can of Coke dumped on them.

      A subtle hint of Turmeric with Ginger and a whiff of Cinnamon. The very light touch of Honey and the goldenness of Coconut.

Pear Cider Vinaigrette

A Pear Cider Vinaigrette that is a light crisp addition to any green salad. Try it on an Arugula Salad with Blue Cheese and Turmeric Pecans.. mmmmm

The best parts of this vinaigrette is you only need a few tablespoons of Apple Cider, what you do with the rest is up to you!
