Cinnamon Raisin Toast with Goodness - CEiMB

  If you think you have seen this, elsewhere, you have.  I made a mistake and posted it on My Sweet and Savory.  Truthfully, it is good enough to be posted in both places.  I had a terrific breakfast, this morning.

Cinnamon Raisin Toast with Honey Walnut Spread 


I am hoping each of you has a good sense of humor.  I think you will need it.  I, also, hope that Ellie forgives me for the changes, I made.

I discovered, this morning, when I started to prepare this for a yummy breakfast, there were a few problems with this recipe (FOR ME).  Please understand, I thought, I had the necessary ingredients.

The recipe calls for:
  • raisin bread - did not have - used white bread and added a few raisins to yogurt mixture
  • Greek plain yogurt - only had vanilla yogurt
  • peaches or apples - uh, um - used mango
Interestingly enough, the title of the recipe still works - Cinnamon Raisin Toast with Honey Walnut Spread , if you remove the cinnamon raisin.  I did have walnuts and honey.  OK, I made Toast with Honey Walnut Spread.  If I can stretch this, I also added the cinnamon and raisins, just not to the plain toast.

Who cares?  What I made was delicious and certainly it came from the original recipe.  My spread was a little darker and a little bumpier with the addition of a few raisins and some cinnamon.

Are you laughing at me.  Actually, I am patting myself for creativity since I ended up with a delicious breakfast, just not the breakfast, Kayte chose.  Thanks Kayte, either way, we are all eating well and you made a fabulous selection.

For the readers, this was a crunch creamy sweet and lovely dish and I know most of you will love it.

    I don't know how many times, I've thought I had everything, but then had to make a substitution, then another, then another. It's the new combinations that make cooking fun. Your mango walnut raisin toast still looks yummy! Thanks for sharing.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
