Cucumber Salad

0 · Jul 7, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I grew up eating cucumbers and tomatoes (grown in the garden) by the truck loads and so different variations of cucumber salads were fairly common in our house. I continue this trend of eating lots of tomatoes and cucumbers in my house. It’s amazing how many new ways you can discover to eat these delicious bites.

This is a very refreshing and crisp salad that goes great with just about anything. You could make this if you are on the Wild Rose D-tox Program, but you need to omit the vinegar in the dressing.

  • Sometimes easier said than done. Especially when the hits just keep on coming. Hurting now. Trying to break the cycle.

  • Surprise surprise we fondued again this weekend. This time a marinated sesame chicken in broth + a cheese fondue made with a porter (beer). Lots of great flavour happening and too much chicken!
.
We finished with a small bowl of chicken soup using the leftover broth with some vermicelli noodles and sliced green scallions I had on stand by. Another amazing fondue is in the books!
.
Leftover uncooked chicken went into our chicken chow mein 😍😉

  • This Cherry Kiss Hot Chocolate is from @eatdrinkblock and available for #YYCHotChocolateFest!
.
In the first photo the incredibly tasty booze soaked cherries fell in to the hot tub aka hot chocolate. The second photo shows the cherries pre-hot tub.
.
The hot chocolate is missing the marshmallow as they apparently ran out of marshmallows. Hopefully this means they are selling lots of hot cocoa for @yychotchocolatefest!
.
Try this beverage with or without alcohol and partial proceeds go to Calgary Meals on Wheels.

  • Cooking from @donna.hay's #moderncooking #cookbook this month.
.
Made these Burnt Butter and Salted Maple Sticky Buns for the #rainydaybitescookbookclub challenge. Admittedly I took the photo before adding the salt (whoops)! The dough is easy to work with and I let both rises go longer than advised.
.
The glaze for these buns goes both on the bottom and again poured over the buns when they come out of the oven hot. My family loved them and ate most of them as they were a little on the sweet side for me.
.
Lots joining in on this challenge today. Follow the hashtag, #rainydaybitescookbookclub to see everyone's photos for todays challenge!

  • -28 with the wind chill is no deterrent when it comes to trying hot chocolate during @yychotchocolatefest. This is the Frozen Hot Chocolate Gelato from @fiascogelato and it is so delicious that you completely forget its ahem frozen and -28 out side.
.
It's available until February 28th but do check their opening hours before you go as they are closed Sundays.
