A little healthy twist
I'm gonna try to be a little more healthy, all my foods have been pretty fattening, so I'm gonna try to be a little more nitricious this time. This week I had leftover mango and pineapple juice, so I decided to make a really simple smoothie. All you need is a spoonful of cream of coconut to add some sweetness and special flavor with a tropical flare. You could even use frozen pineapple juice ice cubes instead for more of a slush drink. You'll need about 8 pineapple ice cubes, some mango slices and some sugar or honey to sweeten it up a bit. Once you've got all that, just bled it up for a couple seconds, but not too long or the ice will melt and it'll become too watery. And once all that's done, pour yourself a nice glass and enjoy!
Simple Sandwich
I'm always hungry at school and never have anything to eat because it takes so long to make something that'll be good by the time it's lunch time! So if you're in the same boat as me, I may have something for you! So this morning I decided to conquer this hunger that I face daily & make myself something. It was quick, and took very little food. All you'll need is two slices of bread, mayo, or butter whichever you prefer, your selection of cheese and your selection of Ham or turkey. Now, just toast the bread, to where you like it. Apply your choice of spread onto it, and then put on your choice of cheese and meat, and put it in the iron press to melt the cheese & compact the sandwich. Now that that's all done, you should have a really good looking easy sandwich ready for you for later!!! I hope everyone enjoys their sandwich as much as I do!

Caesar salad!
So proms coming up soon so
everyone is trying to eat healthy to look good and fit into their dresses! So
here is something just as yummy as it is healthy! How about a Chicken Caesar
Salad? All you need is, 1 teaspoon canola oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, Freshly ground
pepper, to taste, 8 cups washed, dried and torn romaine lettuce, 1 cup fat-free
croutons, 1/2 cup Caesar Salad Dressing, 1/2 cup Parmesan curls, and Lemon
wedges.
It’s also as easy as it is
healthy and yummy! So all you need to do is prepare a grill or preheat broiler, then
rub the chicken with oil and season it with salt and/or pepper. Then you can
either grill or broil the chicken until its ready and browned and has no trace
of pink in the center, let it cook for about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Then just
combine the lettuce and croutons in a large bowl, toss in with Caesar Salad
Dressing and put it in a bowl and cut up some chicken into 1/2-inch slices and sprinkle
it over the salad finally, top with Parmesan curls. once its all ready, serve it immediately, with
lemon wedges for extra yummy flavor! Enjoy and
look great at Prom!
French Onion
A soup that'll normally cost someone like $15 at a nice restaurant
will only cost you around $5. All you need is, 1/2 cup unsalted butter, 4
onions, sliced, 2 garlic cloves, chopped, 2 bay leaves, 2 fresh
thyme sprigs, salt and freshly ground black pepper, 1 cup red wine,
about 1/2 bottle, 3 heaping tablespoons all-purpose flour, 2 quarts
beef broth, 1 baguette, sliced, 1/2 pound grated Gruyere, to enjoy a homemade French Onion Soup.
You start off by melting a stick of butter in a large pot
over medium heat, then you add the onions, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and salt
and pepper and cook until the onions are very soft and caramelized, so for about
25 minutes. Add the wine, and bring it to a boil, reduce the heat and let it
simmer until the wine has evaporated and the onions are dry, for about 5
minutes. Discard the bay leaves and thyme sprigs for now. Turn the heat down to
medium low so the flour doesn't burn, and cook for 10 minutes to cook out the
raw flour taste. Now add the beef broth, bring the soup back to a simmer, and
cook for 10 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
now you’ll add
the bread. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Sprinkle the slices with the Gruyere and broil until bubbly and golden brown,
so for 3 to 5 minutes.
now the soups are about ready to eat, but be careful
though! It’s going to be really hot! Enjoy! Bon Apettitte!
