Here We Go Again!

Wild Olives are back in the Kitchen together!  First up on the menu is Plantains, first time cooking these for us.  So we tried to mimic what Maggie had in the Cayman's, which were cut into nice thick chunks, thrown into a pan with some oil and then let them brown! We were One-for-One!  Next up we took Maggie's Vitamix she got for a wedding present, put Watermelon cubes in and blended until smooth!  We added in some Simply Lemonade as a sweetener and a Basil leaf to top it off, you could also do a Mint leaf and some Vodka too!  Two-for-Two!  Next up we toasted a Baguette, took some Ricotta and added fresh Lemon zest, topped it on the slices of bread, cut up fresh Basil into strips and drizzled honey over it all - we are Three-for-Three on the scale of delicious food making!  For the finale we made an awesome Greek Yogurt Strawberry Salad dressing with Poppy Seeds and added it to a bed of Spinach and lots of fresh Fruit, Kiwi, Blueberries, Strawberries, then added some Pistachios and BAM Four-for-Four! (No Picture) We had a fun day of Cooking and Delicious Eating! Bon Apetit!
