Mashed Sweet Potatoes


 "Christmas is coming"
 

If I had to rank potato cooking methods in order of deliciousness, mashed potatoes would be in my top three. A dish of mashed potatoes is one of the best side dishes and sweet mashed potatoes are even more so. And when I say sweet potatoes, I'm not referring to the Jewel or Garnet yams. In Jamaica we have very starchy red skinned fibrous sweet potato, similar to Japanese sweet potatoes (however the flesh is a pale mustard yellow not white). This savory dish is perfect for your Christmas table. This recipe was totally by accident and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it.

Croque-Madame...No runny eggs here.. Sue me!



Breakfast is served

A whole lot of years ago, (my god we're old) when we were still in high school my sister took a French field trip to Saint Martin. I think it was probably the best field trip she has ever been on because she still raves about it to this day.That was the first time I heard about a most delicious sandwich called a Croque-Madame and monsieur. Essentially a French ham, egg and cheese sandwich, and who doesn't love a ham, egg and cheese sandwich?

Red Salmon Flatbread Pizza



Something smells fishy...



I always wondered why people hate canned salmon. It’s my favorite kind of salmon, normally we have it sautéed with onions tomatoes and peppers for breakfast with fried dumplings, or for dinner over rice. It’s just so versatile and yummy, but I have heard from multiple persons that they find it disgusting. Do you know someone who feels the same way? This recipe was made for them, it will turn any person into a lover of canned salmon.
