Yummy Fresh Cashew Basil Pesto

The last month has been so busy... studying, and getting ready for christmas, actually I don't know why I have felt so busy because I haven't even been working.  I started a few posts but couldn't seem to post them arg...!  So this is what I have been up to the last month...

Spicy Carrot And Basil Soup

I originally made this soup with 2 birds eye chili's! It was really hot, but goooood!  So if you love hot food put 2 chili's in the soup, if you don't like it hot make sure to remove the seeds first.  I made this soup for lunch and accompanied by a grilled cheese sandwich.

Quinoa Beef Salad

I have never cooked Quinoa before but we had a bag of it in our cupboard that a friend bought so I decided I would try to make some Quinoa Salad.  I made the salad with an assortment of food that we had in the fridge and the freezer...   It worked out wonderfully the lime and herbs give the salad a refreshing taste.

Fresh Rice Paper Beef Rolls

I love Vietnam, the food is awesome fresh healthy amazing, I have visited Vietnam 3 times and discover something new every time I visit. One the best Vietnamese dishes to make is fresh spring rolls you can make them with almost any fillings, whatever is fresh is great.  Today I used beef today, but I have made them with prawns, chicken, fish, pork or vegetarian.  In Vietnam I have had the rolls with Vietnamese Sausage and Soft shell crab.
