FOR DECORATION, FOR EXAMPLE, A DESSERT

Sweet mince lollipops.

Today I did and besides being very simple, anyone glad dessert and finished eating with a laugh. Not have to be a cake decorating can also be a bowl (which on days like this, thanks a lot).

ingredients:

     Chocolate
     Sweet mince

Melt the chocolate in the microwave (open and stir every 30 seconds to prevent burning) put on paper anti-gras (the typical butcher) in small circles. Add a few Peta-Zeta and stick a skewer of medium size. Cool and put on the dessert before serving. Besides being colorful decor, is fun.

And still enjoying Christmas with your family.

A SALAD FOR ONE OF THESE SPECIAL DAYS

A recipe for a wonderful place in Bilbao: "The Vineyard". You can do it at home, these days when we gather to celebrate Christmas. It's a mozzarella salad: I challenge you to try to do it and then you tell us if you've been successful. Well, sure you do. The difficulty of preparation is low. What is important is the point of the ingredients and you get a good dressing with vinaigrette we propose.Go for it!

ingredients:

Arugula.
Baby spinach leaves
endive
Sprockets
Cherry tomatoes cut into halves.
Tomato confit
Mozarella with wheels
Based dressing: olive oil, vinegar, salt, mint (very little) and crushed hazelnuts.

The first three ingredients you can buy from the 4th Range bags sold in supermarkets, with all these mixed vegetables.

If set to marinate with oil and cherry tomato confit, the better.

Emulsify the vinaigrette with all ingredients, except salt. Add it when the emulsion is achieved.

Assemble the ingredients and season. No need more decoration, but it is very well placed in individual bowls.

Y. .. Bon appetit!

CHRISTMAS: DO NOT DRAG YOU DOWN THE STREAM!

Christmas comes and there are days that dare not set foot in a mall: there is everything, absolutely everything, again. Naively I thought that perhaps the crisis were to abstain from eating so excessively ... but I think I'm back to being wrong. It is true that the media talk of caution, caution, etc.. And it's true that this year many families will be spending this time precisely slack. So what to do?

It strikes me as usual: no better buy than it is designed, planned. To not buying like crazy just stop and think of home, before diving in supermarkets (or not so great) of tinsel, red balls, and tinsel.

Sure there to celebrate the holidays, but with common sense. We suggest:

     Plan menus marked days for your family.
     Make a list of things you need and the amount.
     These days the mailboxes are full of offers: aprovéchalas, and contrast prices.
     Many times a good decoration to embellish a dish more spectacular ingredient. Remember that dedication is the star ingredient not lost to any palate.
     Buy with weather, precipitation leads to wasting time (a precious commodity), almost always.
     Enjoy another year decorations giving it another go, changing of place, ...
     And since this blog is healthy eating ... enjoy with your family, knowing also reconcile with healthy menus.

and ...Merry Christmas!
