Elevate Your Salad Game with Strawberry Gouda Chicken Delight

This was one of the best salads I have ever eaten! When it comes to chicken, I love how there are so many ways to have it. And adding the chicken to salads is one of those things that gives me an excuse to enjoy salads. For this recipe you do not really need to cook chicken again, left over chicken works best. This is because the left over chicken already has its own flavours which adds texture, flavour and variety. Gouda is also a cheese I had never tasted before, but I kind of like it, it has a salty taste that went perfectly with this chicken

SPINACH TOMATO & FETA OMELETTE

Omelettes are perfect for breakfast, and this cheese filled healthy spinach omelette is exactly what you need to have an amazing breakfast. I had never tasted Feta Cheese before and so I was excited to give it a try. So far I am not disappointed in the flavour that the cheese added to my omelette.

CHEDDAR CHEESE VEGETABLE PASTA

I love Pasta and not just because there are so many varieties to choose from but because I can cook it with so many accompaniments. in case you did not know, Pasta has different varieties, we have Long Pasta, Ribbon-cut Pasta, Short-cut extruded Pasta, Decorative cuts Pasta, Miniature Pasta, Pasta with filling, and Irregular and unusual Pasta. There is even Banana Pasta, its prepared from green bananas that are dried then milled into banana flour. Since banana as the primary ingredient, it is gluten free. Now that, I would like to see for myself. Do not even get me started on the types of Cheese that we have. That list will be given at a much later date. Anyhow, to be honest the only cheese I have ever eaten is the one that usually tops up Pizza. I wanted to try this Cheese on something so my love of Pasta plus my curiosity of Cheese brought about this Cheesy recipe. The Pasta turned out creamy and quite heavy so I really did not need to have a side dish for this. I'm loving the Crushed Ginger and Garlic Mix in my food so i added the two. This gives the meal that much needed spicy and somewhat hot kick, plus the fragrance Ginger and Garlic give to the dish is just divine. You can totally skip them if you want but I strongly suggest you add them! Pasta in Cheese, I give it a thumbs up. Try it out and let me know. What other Cheese have you used in Pasta?

CREAMY PENNE ALA VODKA PASTA

Today I'm feeling all quotsy , it's seriously not a word but maybe it's because of all the buzz going on in my head. Harold McGee “The alcohol molecule bears some resemblance to a sugar molecule, and indeed it has a slightly sweet taste. At high concentrations, those typical of distilled spirits and even some strong wines, alcohol is irritating, and produces a pungent, "hot" sensation in the mouth, as well as in the nose. Its chemical compatibility with other aroma compounds means that concentrated alcohol tends to bind aromas in foods and drinks and inhibit their release into the air...” So what am I going on about here? Well there is always a debate going on about using Alcohol in cooking so I just somewhat wanted to put it all into perspective before you start asking, Vodka in Pasta? How Now? There goes your answer, so to put it simply Harold McGee is saying that low concentrations of alcohol enhance flavor and aromas... in food. Enough said, let's get to cookin' Check out this other amazing Pasta Dish.
