Long Haul Catch Up, Part the Second

Where was I? Oh yes, strawberry-peach sundaes. Made these on August 21st and again September 15th.

AMAZING. From Canadian Living, by way of Best Recipes Ever. Definitely on the mark with this one.

Cook peaches.

Allow the good quality ice cream to soften up a bit.



Combine peaches and strawberries.

Keep a few berries on the side for garnishing.

Finished product. Mmm ... lovely.


September 4th (Breakfast): Blueberry Orange Yogurt Bran Muffins

Recipe courtesy of Kellogg's All Bran cereal. Yummy.

The flaxseeds on top are my personal touch.

September 4th (Supper): Garlic Shrimp and Spinach Linguine

From Milk Calendar, month of July.



September 8th: Marinated Steak, Pretzel Steaks

From July 2012's Chatelaine: Anju's Marinated Rib Eye Steak. This one I had to try just because of the exorbitant amount of soy sauce and sugar called for. I didn't love it though, so not worth using up my kitchen supplies. Tossed.


From the same magazine, served with Charcut's Buttery Soft Pretzel Sticks. Good. May do again.



September 12th: Zesty Shrimp Skewers and Thai Mango Salad

From September 2012's Chatelaine: the Zesty Shrimp Skewers would have been good except the shrimp cooked quickly and the shallots were not cooked through, and were too hard/raw to be enjoyed. The Thai Mango Salad was yummy, and we're not huge mango fans here.



More to come...
