Sprout Salad with Peanut Lime sesame dressing

I was clearing out my fridge and made this salad so it was odds and ends.  However incredible taste and a diverse nutritious salad.

Sprout Salad with Peanut Lime Sesame Dressing

-1/2 a container sprouts
-1 avocado cubed
-pea shoots
-kale
-1 large tomato chopped and lightly coated in salad and pepper
-cucumber chopped
-1/2 red pepper chopped
-1/4 cup blanched almonds dry roasted
-sesame seeds roasted

In a frying pan at medium heat add the almonds and start to brown them after about 5 minutes add the sesame seeds, watch well so that they don't burn.  Once nicely brown set aside to cool.  Mix the salad together and add the almonds and sesame seeds.

Peanut Lime Sesame Dressing

-2 tablespoons sesame oil
-juice of 3 limes
-2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter
-1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
-soy sauce a few dashes
-pepper
-1 tablespoon maple syrup

mix all together.  It makes a thick dressing that is so tasty

BBQ Potatoes

So this is a fantastic BBQ recipe

New Potatoes BBQ in a foil container

-1-2 pounds of new potatoes chopped in half
-1-2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter
-1 onion chopped
-salt and pepper
-red and yellow peppers chopped
-1/4 cup cheese grated (parmigiana, Swiss, cheddar, Gouda)


In a pan (I used a tin foil pan) places the potatoes, oil, onion, peppers and covered with cheese.  I used what I had available, the cheese is what made the dish, on medium high heat on the BBQ, stirring frequently.  Cook until potatoes roasted through out, pierce with a fork.  Took about 30 minutes.  To speed up partially boil potatoes.


Was amazing!

Dinner March 1st

So tonight on the menu, pasta with lamb skewers

I fried three slices of bacon, until cooked, then removed from pan.  I removed excess fat and fried cremini mushrooms until golden brown, I added pink and purple carrots, onions and garlic and continued to fry.  I waited till the onions were fried, then added red peppers and chick peas, 3 tablespoons tamari soy sauce, and 1/2 cup white wine and 2 tablespoons or goat cheese, and pepper.  Meanwhile I had pasta boiling.  I added the kale and pasta into fry pan, mixed and served.  With crumbled bacon and Parmesan cheese.
