Food. One of my top favorite topics. I sure appreciate a good meal, and conversation about the meal almost as much as the food itself! With warmer weather that means smoothies. I was so proud to whip this up one afternoon, using ingredients like bananas, plain greek yogurt, almond milk, and cocoa powder (oh, and peanut butter too!). I poured Anna a cup and even gave her a special striped straw. She wouldn't go near it! Wouldn't even touch the cup, silly girl...so I drank every last bit myself.
Delicious :)
We like to have salad for dinner when it's warm out too. I like to challenge myself to see how much variety I can fit in one salad. From looking at the color in this photo, I'd say I do pretty good most days.
Back to the smoothie-doesn't this look like it's begging to be drank through a delightful straw?
Attempt at being "cool mom"-failed.
It's a known fact around here that I'm not any good at making pizza. Don't get me wrong-I love pizza. I just can't make it right. Yet, the forever optimist that I am, I always decide to keep trying. So this was another attempt at homemade pizza. It was quite good, but still needed a bit more of something. Just not sure what.
Any tips?
These little beauties were a surprise! I'd never had a turnip and decided to go for it. They were lovely!
I blogged about them over at Thrice the Spice, so watch for the recipe there. It's a food blog my sisters and I write. You can find it here: http://thricethespice.blogspot.com
What have you been up to in the kitchen? I hope you've been having as much fun with your food as I have!
A happy, colorful mess in the kitchen one night....
One of my favorite things to cook are burritos-we like to use seasoned chicken, avocado, onion, cheese, 1 container greek yogurt mixed with 1 tsp. taco seasoning...etc, etc.etc.
I'm not very creative in the kitchen, I admit. But-I'm trying. One night I made mango pico de galla for dinner, along with our burritos. The next day I put it on top of brown rice, with black beans, cheese, and green salsa. SO delicious!

I mix a little bit of garlic powder and pinch of salt along with a shake or two of Italian seasoning in the dry dough mix for added flavor. I think it makes it more authentic. Your food looks yummy I think!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice Sydnee! This is a great idea, I'll have to give it a try.
