Breakfast at home

For my breakfast home lab i cooked for my mom & sister : i did broccoli, red pepper, cheese omlettes with hash browns & a mixed berry smothie. I started by cutting up the potatoes & putting them into a frying pan on low heat, then i cut up the red peppers, broccoli & grated the cheese. I mixed an egg with a spoon of milk, put it into a different frying pan & put the red peppers, broccoli & covered it with cheese and flipped it onto one side. I then repeated that 2 more times while suring the hash browns. I plated everything then put a frozen berry mix in the bender with some milk and made smoothies to go with our meal.

Hash

Use whatever you have in your fridge, put it into a hash. So i had potatoes, turnips, spinich, onions, eggs, cheese. Start by cutting up your potatoes & turnips into cubes, onions diced, spinich into rolls. Put a frying pan on low with some olive oil & onions. Then fill a medium pot half way with water & put the potatoes & turnips into it when it boils, when they are tender to a fork drain then and put then into the frying pan. When the potatoes are lightly golden make two holes & put eggs in the pan then cheese on top, put into oven for 2 minutes. let cool and leftover hash.

Shakshuka with feta

you start by picking which veggies you would like in it, then you cut them all up like onion, pepers, tomatos, spinich, brocolli. Cook the onions pepers first then the rest & add tomato sauce. Make two holes in the pan for the eggs, put a lid on top and let them cook for about 3 minutes. take the lid off add some feta let it melt a bit & you’ve got a great dinner

Breakfast Sandwich

we designed our own breakfast sandwich, in mine i put spinach, jack cheese, bacon & made the scone bread. once the scones were golden brown, i took them out of the oven and put them on a plate. I cooked the bacon until almost crispy. i then put the spinach on the scone & added the bacon. my sandwich was done and tasted really good.

Banana muffins

we started our banana muffins by mixing the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Then we add in the wet ingredients which includes the smashed banana and mix it all together to get a dough but don’t over mix the dough or it’ll look like a cupcake when it gets out of the oven. Put the dough into a muffin tin that has liners in it and make them even. bake them for 22 minutes then enjoy. the biggest part of this recipe is making sure you don’t over mix the muffins and the final product should have texture on the top if it and soft on the inside. i enjoyed these but wouldn’t make them again

Chocolate Chips Oatmeal Cookies

On February 4th we made a healthier version of chocolate chip cookies by incorporating oatmeal and using less sugar. The reason we made these cookies was to find a way to transform regular cookies into more healthy cookies. I learned that the cookies are a quick bread method, flour mixture and a drop cookie. One challenge for these cookies were trying to not make the cookies too dry from the oatmeal and one success was having moist, golden brown, chewy cookies. I thought they were good for a healthier cookie and didn’t taste any different except that there were oats in them for a different texture. I enjoyed making them / eating them and would recommend this recipe.

My Most Memorable Food Experience

My most memorable food experience is when my Nonna and I made handmade gnocchi together. we made it at her house, in her medium sized kitchen last may. we didn’t follow a recipe because it was in her head but my Nonna’s instructions were clear. she helped me pat down and roll the dough, then cut it into small squares. we then cooked them in a large pot on high heat until they were ready, put a tomato sauce on top of them and served them to my mom, sister, nonno. This is my most memorable food experience because it was a family recipe I didn’t know and I made it with my Nonna.
