Instead of the boring mashed potatoes that we have been eating forever, why not add a bit of a twist to make it new and extra yummy?
With a bit of innovation, this ordinary side dish becomes a favorite.

Ingredients

3 large Potatoes
½ cup basic chicken stock
salt & pepper
1 tablespoon horseradish (you can get it from the superstore)

This is an entertaining dish to make; it is perfect for a garden party and a summer cocktail bash. It is SO Yummy!
It may be served alone as “finger food” or as part of a menu, with green salad and French fries.
They may be prepared a few hours earlier, they are good even a bit cold.

almonds

Do you like almonds?
Well, you should! Because almonds are very healthy for you, they are full of vitamin E and free of cholesterol.

Here are five yummy things to do with almonds:

1. Pan-roast them with a bit of olive oil and your favorite spices.
2. Lightly sauté and them mix them into steamed rice or couscous.
3. Toss them on a classic salad with lettuce and blue cheese.
4. Sprinkle them over simple steamed veggies.
5. Add them to freshly popped for an extra crunchy treat.

rice casserole

I thought of something that suits a slow day … when you don’t feel like eating something difficult or sophisticated or making a big meal … this casserole is made of simple ingredients and goes well with any type of salad. If you like cheese, this is a dish for you!
But keep in mind that you will need a bit of extra time in the kitchen!

taco salad

We have gotten used to eating tacos like a sandwich; a taco shell filled with delicious spicy minced meat, crunchy lettuce and sweet water filled tomatoes. hmm … hmm … But why not transform this taco dish into a salad that a few people can share and enjoy?

This is the ultimate taco salad, that is perfect for friends and family gatherings over a movie, or a garden party or an ordinary bash … try it, you wont regret it at all!

Our usual Taco shell is stuffed with spiced minced beef, lettuce, tomatoes, red beans, cheddar cheese and topped with salsa or sour cream, but the salad is a tad bit different.

Pizza

Pizza might be one of the most famous Italian foods in addition to Spaghetti and lasagna, and what makes pizza a favorite is its acceptance to loads of different toppings that vary from vegetarian, meaty and even fruity!

The first thing I am going to give you is the basic pizza dough recipe that is easy to make, then i will give you three topping recipes that will have you drooling all over!
