What is your favorite thing to cook? If I have the time and company - I love making a full dinner w appetizers, main course follows by dessert! I take great care to have the right ingredients and to avoid anything raw or spicy...Pairing w wine and coffee as well.

a typical menu for me could be:

warm goat cheese on a bed of spinach, topped w honey and pieces of walnuts

Oven baked Chilean sea bass in white wine, lemon and shallots, with asparagus and quinoa

Warm berries topped w vanilla ice cream (heisse liebe)

coffee and dark chocolate


what are your favorites??

    My favorite menu right now is a one plate special (but requires 3 pans to clean at the end!):

    Baked salmon with a teriyaki glaze

    Coconut "milked" rice with some toasted almond slivers

    Green beans, sauteed with garlic

    But then my favorite dessert:

    Rich vanilla ice cream rolled in toasted shredded coconut (careful not to burn it!) and drizzled with caramel sauce (a bit of whipped cream on the top is delicious!)

    I LOVE coconut rice. Weekly staple for me--easy to make in the rice cooker!

    Never had coconut rice! Have to try sometime but I avoid white rice - pure sugar...

    Mmm that all sounds delish! I really enjoy a small plates meal so we get different flavors and textures in the same meal

    I love a good charcuterie board, with Serrano ham some delicious emmental or Manchester cheese and fruits nuts and other such accompaniments

    Since I have gastropareisis, I find that this was of eating satisfies me and keep nausea at bay. And it reminds me of Spain!
