Рецепт Food and Our Household
Food is so essential to the fabric of our household, you can actually tell by what we are eating, what the well being of our household is like. When things are even keel, the meals are flavorful, generally healthy and something most people would enjoy.
Most of these make it to this place that I call my cyber home. Monday night, I cooked couscous with vegetables from the refrigerator – red bell pepper, mushrooms and corn kernels. Frozen and cooked with the couscous.
The shrimp was also quickly put together, but tasted really nice.
