Hello everybody.
My big artichoke plant needs harvesting,they’re much much better than last year’s ones, no insects at least.
But as usual though big only the end of bulp is used, after boiling them with some lemon I peeled them and made a nice rich salad with baby corns and palmetto.

Hello everybody.
Sorry for the delay, extremely hot busy day.
Prepared something for a picnic tomorrow with my friends plus a small farewell gathering for my best friend who’s leaving tomorrow.
For this evening I did a chocolate mousse or mocha cake, some za’tar buns and a plate of watermelon and white cheese.
Wishing you all the best my dearest Rahoom, love you.

Hello everybody.
Too hot to cook today and nobody gave me any answers about what they want so I did what I found.
End result was some okra in olive oil with garlic, onions and tomato and no meat, vegetarian style. Then I decided to do some stuffed mushrooms with garlic, coriander, cheese, breadcrumbs salt pepper and chili, and since I have some courgette flowers that I intended to fry I stuffed them same as mushrooms and all together in the oven.
Result was super, all gone in minutes
light nice lunch.

Hello everybody and Happy Independence Day to all.
To live the spirit of today’s celebration we started with a colorful breakfast decorated with Jordanian symbols. Bagels with cream cheese, labaneh and peanut butter jam filling.
Lunch was old fashioned green za’tar tomatoes fatayer or pastries.
Dessert was a beautiful Jordan’s flag colored cake, made four layers of colored batter then assembled all with cream and fruit salad, like a rainbow cake but with different colors.
Enjoy your day off, God bless Jordan his King Queen and people.
Happy Independence Day.
Hello everybody.
Another busy Saturday, I think I should change my schedule sometimes I really wish to have a real lazy weekend, always failing to do so.
Well lunch today was lasagna with mushrooms and spinach inside,a bowl of Ceazar salad and I did the same pizza procedure as yesterday but with garlic powder, oregano, salt and a drizzle of olive oil on top, really yummy and crispy.
Guess this pan pizza will be on my easy to do stuff list.

Hello everybody.
Lazy cold cloudy Friday, why does it become like this on weekends????
Well at lunch time I suddenly decided to try this pizza recipe my cousin posted last week, a spreadable kind of dough in a pan, topped with pizza sauce, toppings and cheese then cooked on the oven. Turned out really good and extremely quick to be done as said in video.
While pizza on stove I made some Rock Cookies for the empty jar and send some to my friend on the occasion of birth of her first grandson, congratulations
Baked some of the cookie dough in a skillet,super yummy.
Ingredients and method of pan pizza :
# 1 cup flour.
# 2/3 cup warm water.
# 1/2 tsp baking powder.
# 1 tsp instant yeast.
# 1 tsp salt.
# 1 tsp honey.
# mix all these ingredients well together then spread evenly in a nonstick pan.
# add pizza sauce then any toppings you like ( basil,oregano, tomatoes, olives…)
# top with cheese.
# cover tightly and cook on the stove on high temperature for 5 minutes.
# remove pan lid a bit and lower heat to minimum and leave for another 10 minutes.
# toast top till crispy.
Quick and easy way to make your favorite pizza.

Long hot hectic day, among-st all day work Roya TV called to ask me to go cook tomorrow another time, doubled my chores for today but never-mind I’m so happy and excited, this means yesterday’s episode was a success.
Lunch today was many leftovers with a big green salad with sun-dried tomatoes, grilled white cheese and some pine nuts,dressing was simple vinaigrette with a bit of pomegranate sauce.
I also made another special requested Humming Bird cake for my lovely cousin’s birthday. Many happy returns dear.

Hello everybody.
Had to cook something quick today cause I had to meet my friends to go watch Mammia Musical and it was really worth every minute and penny, absolutely amazing,music still in my ears till now.
Saturday lunch is always fresh cause it’s grocery day, marinated chicken breasts in this yummy rich dressing marinate sauce my husband bought yesterday, then grilled them with garlic, sage and rosemary, added fresh broccoli and mushrooms then left them to simmer a while. Made some pesto pasta on the side and that’s it, quick and easy.
very tasty marinade.
best dish ever !
