Haddock Japchae

The haddock gives a great texture. Added lots of ginger, this was a really great idea!

Wedding Special

Alright, so I had to make a wedding post. I only wish I took pics of the Jerk Chicken by the beach...but I had a few pics of the restaurant and dinner from my destination wedding in beautiful Ocho Rios, Jamaica at the RIU.






We ate at the steak house, and it the steak was amazing. 
Everything was perfect.
Now for the cake, I was lucky enough to spot these wonderful edible butterflies on Amazon. I took a chance, first time buy with Sugar Robot, and I'm so glad I did. You can look them up here.




So, I can't make a wedding post and not include some wedding pics too.









I totally recommend a destination wedding! 
It was a dream come true for us, and I would do it all over again.
Photography was taken by our dear friend Robert Strukelj.

Kale Smoothie

Inspired by the Mighty Kale smoothie I had at Jugo Juice I decided to try this out at home.

It's really easy to make. It can be done in a blender or a pitcher with a hand blender.

I never officially measured anything. So this will all be very general. Please add either more fruit/kale or juice to get the texture you want.

To reach a more pleasant color stick to light colored fruit. If you only care about taste be as creative as you like.

This is what I've tried this far:

1st batch
- Fresh Kale, leaves only, large handful
- Fresh Pineapple, at least a cup
- Fresh Strawberries, at least a cup
- Guava juice, 1cup and then as needed
** Note to start blending the juice with the Kale as once it's well blended, add the fruit a bit at a time when using a hand blender.

2nd batch ( made at work)

- Fresh Kale, big handful
- Frozen Peaches, a cup
- Frozen black cherries, a cup
- Guava juice, at least a cup
- Five alive Peach juice, as needed

Enjoy!
