Like most kids, I didn’t like to eat Brussels sprouts much when I was younger. And I always thought I was lucky that my mom never made it much. I don’t think it was because my sister and I hated the bitter cabbage-like vegetable, but it was because Brussels sprouts aren’t used in Chinese dishes much.
I was at City’Super the other day and came across a box of Aussie Cherry Tomato Medley Mix and couldn’t resist buying it (despite how pricey it was). I absolutely adore cherry tomatoes, they are like sweet and juicy pops of joy in my mouth. I ate half of the box as a snack and used the other half in a Tomato Salad recipe from Jamie Oliver’s 30 Minute Meal book.
I am sharing this recipe because the salad is tasty and simple to make! If you like tomatoes like me, give it a try. Read more >>
Another favorite winter warmer of mine, is the classic French Onion Soup ~ made with savory beef broth, sweet caramelized onions and topped with melted Gruyère cheese and crunchy croutons. This bistro classic is popular because of it’s deliciously rich and comforting flavors.
