Quinoa Carrot Cream

It seems that blogger did not like my lobster pasta!!.....hahahahaha!!.....they said they will restore  the comments...If blogger does not restore them, then I will post them manually.....Thanks for your kind words in the previous post!!!!

Today, I want to share some recipes for the contest that I'm hosting (I'm going to contribute with recipes to my contest, but I will not participate in the award....hahaha.....)

These are very easy and tasty recipes.....I hope you like them!!

These recipes will be in the booklet of:





Quinoa Carrot Cream

2 cups of baby carrots
3/4 cup of cooked quinoa (measured after cooked)
Salt
Oregano
Milk
Water
Olive oil
Mushrooms for garnish (if you want)

Wash and cook the baby carrots. When the carrots are cooked, puree them in a blender with milk. Use milk until you have the consistency you want for it (I use 1 cup of milk). Put it back in a pot, add the quinoa, and season it with salt, oregano and olive oil. Simmer at low heat for 5 minutes to blend the flavours. Serve it and decorate it with sautee mushroom and olive oil on top. Enjoy!

 
 
 


Light Frittata Dishes 

Frittata is made with cream, a lot of eggs, and cheese. I have made a light version to lower the calories intake.  These dishes can be used as a side dish, or cold for a picnic.

Vegetables and Parmiggiano Cheese Light Frittata

3 cups of cooked and cut veggies (I used broccoli, cauliflower, orange and yellow carrots)
4 eggs
1/2 cup of milk
50 grams of Parmiggiano cheese
Salt
Pepper
Oregano
Olive oil

Beat the eggs with the milk. Add the Parmiggiano cheese, salt, pepper, and oregano. Mix it with the cooked veggies.

Brush an oven proof dish (round one) with olive oil. Place this mix and bake it at 435F for 20 minutes, or until cooked. Enjoy!
