Getting Caught Up Prt. 1 (Feb. 24th-29th 2016)

2/24/16

I tried the green smoothie thing again! Same ingredients except the red tart cherries, (the pits were still in them) I added peaches. It was ok, I need to work on it.

2/25/16

I was overdue for Kale Pasta. I needed a meat break.

2/26/16

Keeping it simple! Turkey sandwich

2/27/16

It had been a long time, I was overdue.

This time I added shrimp to the stir fry. I got the sauce right!

Can you tell whose plate is whose?...

2/28/16

I used the rest of the stir fry sauce and added a few more veggies and put it all over pad thai noodles (GF of course)

The bowl with no veggies of course belongs to The Lil Chef she called it "Asian Spaghetti"

I needed seconds!!!

Ok, so I found out that (I believe I stated this before in a previous post)
I can no longer have yogurt of any kind, so i decided to eat the last two even though it was going to cause me a major migraine...hence the Excedrin. I couldn't finish it & gave it to The Lil Chef. I have to say blueberry and strawberry mixed is pretty good.

2/29/16

I made the Turkey Salisbury Steak & it was to die for ...seriously!!!! I perfected every aspect of it down to the non dairy gravy! The carrots even tasted like steak!

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By Gail Greenberg & Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I will switch some things around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...

Johnny Mango's Shrimp Fried Rice with Fiery Lime Sauce

Backstory: My friend introduced me to this AMAZING fried rice about 6yrs ago. She asked did I want "fried rice" (I'm thinking "traditional" fried rice) OH NO! I tasted this and my taste buds went crazy!!! I had her bring it as often as I could. Unfortunately I have never been to Johnny Mango (near Downtown Cleveland) myself. I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself. If you ever visit Cleveland OH I suggest checking this out! INGREDIENTS For the rice 2 cups jasmine rice (I'd probably use white and brown) 2 3/4 cups water (filtered clean water) 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (Olive oil) 1 teaspoon salt (kosher salt) 2 eggs, beaten 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 6 ounces shrimp (large 31-40 count) 1/3 cup scallions, sliced 1 cup English cucumber, diced (organic) 1 ...
