Rosemary Potatoes

This one is good all year round, as a side dish, especially with turkey. This is my fave way to eat red potatoes. The aroma draws you in, and then you can't stop eating them.

Ingedients:

• Baby Red Potatoes, quartered
• 2 Tbsp Can't believe It's Not Butter (you can use whichever butter/oil you prefer)
• 1-2 tsp dried rosemary leaves (if you use fresh rosemary,chopped, you can use more)
• Cracked Black Pepper, to taste

Get Started:

• Boil the potatoes in water in a deep pot until tender, about 20 mins (depends on how full your pot is)
• Strain, and place potatoes back in pot
• Add the rosemary and butter, stir

Green Bean Salad

Refreshing, cold salad to escape the heat. It's so simple and easy to make, there's no excuses for this one. I made this recipe by eye, so use the vinegrette  and ingredients according to your portion size.

Ingredients:

• Green Beans, a bunch, whole
• Red Onion, thinly sliced, less than a quarter onion.

Vinegrette

• 50/50 Dark Sesame Oil and Apple Cider Vinegar
• salt and pepper to taste

Get Started:

• Snip the tips off the beans, wash and place in a pyrex glass container with cover.
• Place in microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Let stand afterwards for another 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a tupperware container, add the onions.
• Prepare in the vinegrette in a small bowl, or by eye over the beans.
• Stir, and set in the fridge to cool and marinate. This should be about 20-30 minutes

Spicy Muscles

This recipes is a little large, considering that the container of muscles from Costco comes only in one large size (2.72Kg!), so this can easliy feed 4-6 people, and this is including a refill for each person, cuz they're that good.

Ingredients:

• 1pk Fresh, Live Muscles, washed, beards removed
• 796mL can of Crushed Tomatoes
•  5 Jalapeno Peppers, thick slices
• 2 TB dried Oregano
• 2 heaping tsp Tumeric
• 1 inch piece of Ginger, sliced

Get Started:

• Use a large braising pan with a cover, place on MED-LOW heat, add the crushed tomatoes, oregano, tumeric. Stir to mix spices evenly.
• Cut the peppers and ginger, add to the pan.
• Rince the muscles and add them to the pan, stir them about using a large spoon and cover.
• Let it cook, and stir occasionally until muscles have opened, roughly about 15-20mins, make sure to let it cook a bit longer if your pan is really full.
