Sneak peek!

Hello! Happy new month! Today, I'm excited to share with you a little sneak peek to the new ss 2014 collection.

Peanut almond butter spread

Not long ago, someone gave me a bag full of roasted peanuts. i wasn't sure what to do with it until my

cravings for peanut butter banana smoothie kicked in me. so, i googled around and finally found this

super quick recipe for peanut butter spread.

....

I tweaked the recipe a bit by adding some almonds and used canola oil instead of the vegetable oil. it

turned out amazing. so rich and decadent! i'm thinking of adding cocoa powder next time!

Roasted brussel sprouts spaghetti

it's not common to find brussel sprouts at my local supermarket, i guess it's my lucky day! i roasted brussel sprouts in the oven for only ten minutes with olive oil, salt and pepper. i peeled the leaves because i want them to be super crispy when they come out from the oven!

while waiting for the brussel sprouts, i made the sauce for the pasta by roasting crushed garlics with olive oil and tiny bits of chilli. i love adding lots of anchovies in my spaghetti for an extra flavour. once the spaghetti was cooked, i threw it in the pan and started mixing them up then seasoned with salt and pepper.

i like to mix in brussel sprouts at the last minute so that it stays crispy :)

Bon appétit!

After saying goodbye to my compaq presario laptop I had used since 2008 (too long!), I finally said hello to the iMac.

I still keep my old laptop in the kitchen to browse for recipes and cooking videos :)

2014 is off to a good start!
