Here is one of my "made up" recipes...

First I took some asparagus, broke off the ends where they give, cut them into bite-sized pieces and steamed them with a bit of water and some olive oil.

Next I got out all the rice I had and there were several... Kalinga Jekot (Philippines sticky rice), Rice Blend (sweet brown, wild, heriloom red, calmati brown... get it at Costco), Yellow Saffron, Batsmati (aged Italian rice, wild rice, garden herbs and vegetables), and Ulikar Red (Philippines) ...


Next I drained two cans of mushroom slices, 1 can of olives, shredded some zucchini, chopped 3 peppers, and cut corn off a cob and added all in with the asparagus (that had been drained)




 Spices were added... roasted garlic sea salt and pepper.. 

 
Then the drained chicken (BTW, if you have dogs or cats.. they LOVE the drained chicken water!!)


Then the cooked rice....


Mushroom Alfredo sauce and some grape tomatoes... and mixed well, heated.

 OMGOOOOOD!!!!! Topped it off with a little shredded Mozzarella cheese.


If you are looking for a variety of sea salt..go here:



Yesterday was a trip out to Selma to a kennel where American Indian Dogs are raised and sold. What an interesting place. More about that tomorrow. If you want a sneak peek...

Celebrate National Dessert Day today. For just one day, forget about the calories and high fat content in many desserts. Then, tomorrow you can go back to your diet.
It's easy to enjoy National Dessert Day . You can make your own desserts, buy them at the store, or go out to a restaurant and enjoy a dessert, or two. Make sure to have dessert with family or friends. It's even more fun that way.
May we suggest having dessert at every meal today!?
Have a happy, and fattening, National Dessert Day !!
