We have a restaurant here that has a diverse menu featuring the chef’s take on offerings of many locales. Each dish is a bit different than what one would expect, so it’s always a pleasant surprise.
This taco salad was the menu item I tried last week. It was a treat in both presentation and flavour!
I’m preparing my palate for our upcoming winter in Deep South Texas.
This container of Nut and Seed Brittle weighs in at 0.645 Kg (1.4 lbs) and costs $10.99 CDN ($7.91 USD)
Besides being a great source of fibre and nutrients, this treat is healthy in another way … the clamshell packaging is almost impossible to break into! I know I could put it in another container, but I decided to reseal it in this one every time.
The brittle, although quite sweet, is so full of a big variety of seeds (pumpkin, sesame, sunflower, flax) and nuts (almonds, cashews, pistachios), and coconut, that it’s surprisingly easy to bite into and chew, and one piece always tastes like more.
Best to leave it locked down like Fort Knox.
Every once in a while, I have a strong craving for ice cream. It has to be three scoops of a good vanilla, topped with whatever my mood suggests, and no, I don’t feel a drop of guilt when I indulge.
Self gifting is how I describe purchasing unnecessary items, just because you’re interested in them and you want to give them a try. The likelihood of anyone else gifting them, to you is, at best, slim, so you treat yourself.
Silicone bakeware has always intrigued me.
Last week, I finally caved in to my curiosity, and bought this muffin pan.
Can you guess what I’m baking that might work better in this than in a regular muffin tin?
*Big reveal and review coming on Monday.*
