Yesterday I had a chance to sample my first burrito. Am not really a big fan of Mexican food and after eating this burrito I can't hardly blame myself. Re-fried beans laid out on a roti style wrap, a...

I could never quite figure out that re-fried beans bit myself, are they just a cooked bean that are then fried in oil or fat? Or some fried beans that have been reheated by frying them again? and...
When I couldn't find my Chocolate Courgette Cake recipe for a friend recently I did a net search to find a suitable one for her. The first Courgette Cake recipe I came across was this one which...

Well all your talk of cakes and recipes is making my mouth water like crazy. Think I gained a couple pounds last night just reading the recipes! :eat :eat :eat
For a light lunch snack one of my favourites is bruschetta. Thin slices of white bread with dices of tomato, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic and basil. This time (for valentines) I added some...
I daresay everyone has their favourite recipe for felafel so if anyone would like to share some I'd be grateful! :P What are your favoured herbs and spices for them?

I didn't thank you, LLL and Morgita, for the recipe and help but I do so now! :lol:
I just watched a show on TV about peppers and spices. In the course of this show they did talk about horseradish too, how to make it, what give it heat. Then they explained all about Wasabi which...

Yeah it does sound disgusting and here all these years I thought I was eating wasabi but all I've been eating is green dyed horseradish.......YUCK.....
Every fall I really get a yen for soup on the cold blustery days AND we're now there at cold blustery days. Been soaking about 7 or 8 different types of beans all night and today am making a bean...

Mmm, plenty of beans ;) that should be a good antidote to my hot peppers in the post higher up, a nice cooling breeze would be very welcome. :lol: :lol:
I never knew that it was so easy to make your own cranberry sauce. I've always like cranberry sauce (with berries - not just cranberry jelly) with turkey and for my entire life I've bought it by the...

We are definitely allowing others to shape our destiny. Can't disagree that grocers aren't into big business and 'profit' is the God they worship.
I've been repotting many of my plants lately and one of the ones I always keep in a pot is mint. I'm aware that there are many varieties of mint. Is one variety or kind more suitable to cooking?...

Great suggestion H - I have dug a hole and sunk the pot but just went out and brought it back to where it was coz - as you say - if even a teeny tiny bit of root breaks off the entire garden will be...
I love sauerkraut and have it on sandwichs when I go out. Mostly I have it when I go out cause any I've ever tried to make has turned out real bad. Tastes terrible.
Was out at a friends and she...

I love the tangey not sweet with a hint of sour taste. Goes superbly with all the corned beef and ham type hot sandwiches. The melting cheese combined with melting fresh butter on the hot toast makes...
I ate cactus and it was dee-licious! I ate mostly in a buffet at the resort I stayed at and one of the main noon time items on the menu was 'cactus.'
When served and if you didn't look closely it...

Yup - no prickly bit and I was so pleasantly surprised at how tender and delicious it actually was. I really enjoyed the taste. Wish I'd of had more Spanish so as to be able to actually ask the cook...
Just watching a show about cheese. Have to say I LOVE most types of cheese that I consider real. By real I mean nothing like the velveeta's (each slice wrapped in clear plastic) or the tube cheeses....

I don't think I could ever die of cheese fatigue but I'd love to try!
Right now I'm busily and happily eating blueberries daily. I've planted 7 blueberry bushes of different varieties and am getting a bumper crop this year. I don't think too much about recipes I'd use...

Neva.........but eating a huge crumble all by myself is a great way to go!!!!!!!!! ;)
I think soon I'm going to make the decision to stop eating as the price of food is getting so ridiculously expensive I can't afford it. Honestly the prices seem to be climbing daily.
