Sunday Morning Brunch

Awesome time to prepare a delicious meal is while everyone is asleep. They awaken to the medley of flavors. Biscuits baking. Cinnamon goodness of leftover pastries with a mixture of fruits baked in the oven . Smell of turkey bacon and fried eggs. Fresh fruits makes a great accompaniment. Delicious relaxing meal.

Hint: If you have any let over puff pastries or croissants
that may be a little dry, just cook some fruits in a little apple juice with little brown sugar and cinnamom. Thicken to a syrup consistency if neccessary. Tear the pastry into large pieces place in a baking dish or pan not sheet pan then pour the fruit mixture over the pastry. Bake in oven at about 450 degrees just till heated through delicious!!!!!

Tuesday's Meal all ready. Time to arrange this delicious meal on the dining table. All that is needed now is to move the food to the already set table and join my family for a good conversation and an enjoyable meal. Gotta go. Hope you are dining with your family this evening

Remember you can have a great meal at home within a short time. Just do some prep work in advance and after a long day at work your meal will be a cinch , but it will be so great everyone will wonder if you were cooking all day. Mix it up , even simple foods can look great. Make every night a family night and if everyone cannot be home, then let them know you are thinking of them every day.

Daily Menu

Tuesday, September 21, 2010
Due to circumstances I have not had the time to update my blog. My fans miss that and so with much encouragement; I am convinced that I should start again. So coming soon- lovely exciting dishes.
My son A.D suggests that I should put my daily menu on my blog even if I do not get my dishes up. What an amazing idea!!!!!! Here is my first menu as of today.

Pureed Cauliflower Soup with possible herb flat bread
Wild Pacific Salmon, braised and accompanied with several kinds of roasted pepper and herbs
Left over coconut rice with a dash of fresh sweet basil
and for dessert!
Apple Galette with streusel topping
Drink undecided

Baked Tilapia wit Lime slices and dill Sauce

This fish was served with Garlic Cuscous , Sauteed carrots and snow peas with a home made Tartar Sauce. Try this healthy eating. The Fish was baked in the oven. It was seasoned with just salt and placed on a bed of sliced limes. During cooking I based the fish with a blend of anchovies, habernero,olive oil and dill. The Couscous was cooked in a vegetable stock and some roasted garlic. The vegetables is just steamed in a few drops of water. Last but not least home made Tartar sauce. No need to worry about the fat content if you like this sauce because it is made from healthy ingredients such as tofu and others. My children thought it would be also great on a fish sandwich. I think they are on to something!!!!!!!! To finish off this meal I served cake which I will post below

Banana Crumb Muffin

One of my daughter's shared this amazing Banana muffin recipe with me. To reduce the sugar content I used Stevia as the sweetner for the muffin and the topping I used the brown sugar, cinnamon and a small amount of Smart Balance shortening instead of margarine. I used Ener G Egg Replacer instead of eggs to lessen the cholesterol. The Muffins were awesome. Send me a message if you would like this recipe. Check out those nooks and crannies that is indicitive of a well made muffin.
