One of my favourite veggies is rapini! It can taste a bit bitter at times but still very delicious and good for you!
Easy to make, the stems are stringy so if you have the time peel them otherwise you may trim them.

Omelette
Omelette anyone? Super easy and yummy! You add more to it than I did, my son likes it just like this! Garlic and parsley is great too!
Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
We love these cookies, kinda like banana bread in a cookie form! I started making these cookies when my son was a toddler, I needed a soft cookie that he can chew on, plus a cookie that was good for him!
Now I make them ahead, freeze and pack in their lunches!:)
Fried Plantains
The ingredient of the day today is….rice flour!
I surprised my mom tonight with her favourite fried plantains. She learned how to make them from one of my Aunts who happens to be from the Philippines, since it was a surprise I couldn’t ask her for the recipe, so I came up with one on my own!
I experimented with flour and rice flour, I found the ones I made with flour were heavy and took longer to cook. Good thing I only made 4! The rest I made with rice flour, they fried quickly and with very little oil.
I also added a tbsp of Tropical fruit dip mix by Epicure, I just thought instead of sugar I would add some flavour along with sugar. Obviously you don’t have to use it I did as I have it on hand.
Lamb Stew
My sons dinner request tonight…lamb stew! The whole family loves this dish, especially when prepared this way…if you don’t have a cooking clay pot you can use a dutch pot, or something that is thick and heavy duty. You may also use a Crock pot, all you have to do is prepare it the same way, then add ingredients to the pot, add some water set it and leave it!:)
First I sauté the peppers and meat, too seal in the flavours then transfer to the oven.
