I just added a few more items and more to come this week. Check out the gallery on the blog!!!!
NOW on to recipes. A few years ago, I scored about 5 boxes of old recipe cards and clippings. My plan was to work through these and post them as I cooked them with comments, critiques, and thumbs up or down if I would ever keep them.
Well, life got in the way and I never got around to doing that, but I have found one of the boxes yesterday and I believe I will try again. The interesting thing is that these recipes and clippings are all from the West Coast and I live on the East Coast, so they have a Cali/exotic/fusion spice to them.
I will start with something simple today.
PEAR AND RED ONION SALSA
Ingredients
4 pears, diced
1 red onion
Juice of 2 limes
1/4 cup of cilantro
1 TBSP honey
Preparation
Mix together pears, onion, lime juice, cilantro and honey in glass bowl (I am slowly replacing my plastic containers with glass ones--food tastes way better in them). Cover and refrigerate overnight. Expect the red onion to bleed some red color into the pears.
Total prep time: 15 minutes 8 hours to chill
Makes 6 cups
Easy
p.s. Will post a pic when chilled.
Now I leave you with a favorite photograph from the Botanical Gardens. Not sure what it is, but I believe it is an Allium.
I am thinking orchids tomorrow.........
