Jan 3, New Year New Food Gadgets!

Wed, 03 Jan 2007 00:25:07 GMT

Happy New Year to you all, I hope you had a great time over Christmas and New Year and ate plenty of great foods. I for one visited a couple of great restaurants on the run up to Christmas, the one great place that stuck out for me was an authentic Spanish restaurant and Tapas in Derby called El Toro. If you live in the Derbyshire area of the UK and want fantastic service, this is the place to go. Our party opted for the Tapas menu and we were not disappointed! This link to the menu will give you a small idea of what was on offer http://www.eltororestaurant.co.uk/page2.htm and to be honest there wasnt much from this menu that we didnt try. I opted out of most of the meat options but still managed to eat loads the food that sticks in my mind the most was the garlic mushrooms and also prawns cooked in garlic fantastic! The waiters were great, food was fast and the Sangria flowed all night my only disappointment is that I live 30 miles away and so cant just pop in for a meal when I feel like it! I was delighted to open my presents on Christmas day to find that I had an El Paso fajita grill. I love fajitas, especially King Prawn fajitas. I am now searching the internet for some great fajita ideas so watch out for updates in the very near future! I also received a Pasta Machine hence the new pasta pages that you may have seen appearing on the site. Again I am hunting for articles and tips on how to make and cook the perfect pasta. If you have any tips, please let me know and I will share them with the rest of the world! My last food gift (apart from lots of Baileys liquor) was a Chocolate Fountain. I have to admit I am not sweet toothed or a chocoholic but this is something that I am looking forward to using when I host my Fajita night for the girls. Lots of Fajitas + Chocolate Fountain = very full girls not able to move! I would like to thank all of you that visit my site and who have subscribed to my RSS feed. I hope 2007 is a very good year for you. I am really hoping to increase my basic knowledge of cooking, the videos that I have posted on the site already have begun to help and if any of you are novices I hope they help you too. So again, Happy New Year, please keep in touch!

Dec 11, Great Quick Salads

Mon, 11 Dec 2006 09:10:30 GMT

I've made two great and quick salads over the weekend using just a couple of ingredients from the bottom of my fridge. The first meal I made was on Saturday. I was in a rush, needed to brave the Christmas shopping but also knew I had to eat. I took a look in my fridge and remembered I had some new potatoes to be used up. they were microwave potatoes from Marks and Spencers - now I can't say that I'm a great fan of microwaving my food but it was the fastest way how. So I grabbed the potatoes, put them in the microwave for four minutes and then got chopping up my salad. I used a red onion, two spring onions, red and yellow peppers, celery and five cherry tomatoes. The results were fantastic, I mixed the potatoes with some mayonase, added the salad and squeezed some lemon juice on top. On the side of my plate I added sardines, beetroot and pickled onions. The second salad I made was pretty much the same but I used pasta instead of potatoes and left out the sardines. Just two quick and easy salads that left me filled up and happy - that was until I started the Christmas shopping but thats another story....

Nov 27, Butternut Squash, Tescos and Videos

Mon, 27 Nov 2006 11:19:54 GMT

Yesterday I popped into my local Tescos and cannot believe how much it has changed. There was so much more variety in there, lots of herbs and spices and a wide range of vegetables. I think I am confident enough to say that I could choose quite a few recipes off the internet and would be able to find the ingredients in there. Yesterday I purchased a Butternut Squash. This is somthing that I have not tried before and so I'm now on the hunt for recipes that I can use it. If anyone has any, get in touch! You may have noticed that I have started adding videos to the site. It is quite fun viewing the large amount that are available on the web! I am also happy to put any that you have up on the site so get in touch!

Nov 14, Wow - My First Ever Home Made Soup!

Tue, 14 Nov 2006 00:06:55 GMT

I feel like I really achieved somthing tonight. I made my very first home made soup and all from fresh ingredients! I made a pumpkin and onion soup. It was really hard work cutting up the pumpkin and a huge risk as I had never tried pumpkin before but the result was a fantastic tasting soup! Pumpkin tastes great in the soup and with the left over pumpkin my mum is adding that to a stew that she's making tomorrow night so I hope that pays off well for her! There hasn't been much content added to the site over the last 12 months but things are going to change, I'm currently putting together a page on my favourite greek dishes (there are many!) and all being well that page will be up and viewable pretty soon. So what next in my soup making ambitions? Well I'm planning broccoli and stilton, onion, and leek and potato. Keep checking back on the page, the soups will be on soon!

Apr 28, Quick Prawn Meal

Fri, 28 Apr 2006 17:03:09 GMT

Been a while since i've added anything to this blog but I made up a great little meal this afternoon that I just had to share! All I needed was a small amount of prawns, some red, yellow and green slices of peppers, some sliced red onion, two minute microwave rice and two fajita wraps. I put all but the rice and fajita wraps onto our George Forman grill, well the prawns first for about five minutes and then the peppers etc for two minutes. Whilst that was going on I then put the rice and then the fajitas into the microwave. Then I put some lettuce onto the fajita wraps, then the rice then the rest. I also decided to grill on the George Foreman a tomato sliced in half, that went on top of the rest. Yum it was fantastic!

Dec 19, Cheesy Pie

Mon, 19 Dec 2005 23:25:32 GMT

Went out for a lovely meal today at a pub/restaurant called the Glen Parva manor. The menu was great and they have an offer which is buy one get one free so we were happy about that.

Could only see two vegetarian meals on the menu though and was so tempted to eat the pasta and chicken but decided to be strict and stick with the veg! So I ordered cheesy pie and it was delicious! It contained brocoli florets, mushrooms, chesse and tomatoes and came with garlic bread. The portions were big for everyone else too!

I was very happy that I managed to be strict with myself! It is still very hard to not to be temptated by meat but I think I can do it!
