Fish with mustard sauce and kale chips

by

I looove mustard sauce! I always enjoy eating fish with mustard sauce when eating out. I wanted to reproduce something but lighter. I used honey instead of brown sugar with lemon juice. I paired it with some krispy kale chips (which is my favorite snack now!) and some creamy mashed potatoes with no cheese! You can have this dish ready in less than thirty minutes!

Baked beans with meatballs and calrose rice

by

I grew up eating beans in all shapes and forms. I love homemade beans! They tastes much better than canned beans. I  soak them overnight and cook them the next day. I added meatballs since I like to add meat to my beans. Also, calrose rice brings texture to the dish making it so delicious. It’s a relatively easy recipe to make.

Zucchini Salad with red peppers and cream cheese

by

Since it is officially spring (although it doesn’t feel like it at time with this crazy weather), a zucchini salad with red peppers is the perfect salad for the season. It is crunchy, creamy and fresh at the same time. The mint gives it its freshness while the cream cheese makes it creamy. I added cilantro because I think cilantro makes any salad better.

Plantains with Avocado and Mango

by

It was so fun to have Pearl over again! We made a platter with plantains, avocado, beef and mango. We made a sweet and sour sauce to go with it. This sauce is the bomb! The first time that I made this sauce, it was by mistake LOL. I was trying to make another sauce and it didn’t work out the way I wanted. So, I started thinking on the fly and ended up with this sauce! It’s my go to sauce for red meat now. Relatively easy to make and a great addition to this platter!
