Morning Egg Breakfast - Tomato Mushroom and Smoke Salmon Breakfast

Good Morning!

It's breakfast time and you have two options: tomato and mushroom egg, and smoke salmon scramble egg!

I hope the pictures do make you mouth-watering :)

 

THE SIMPLE AND THE FABULOUS

 

The ingredients of the two dishes are simple. The names say it all. The first one includes diced tomato and mushroom, two eggs, some butter and black pepper.

The second one includes smoke salmon, two eggs, some butter and black pepper.

My sister Anita recently went to Seattle and brought me smoke salmon and salmon jerky as silvania. Last time she brought me beef jerky, and I loved them too!! And of course I love my sister! The salmon jerky was already gone but I saved the smoke salmon just for making the breakfast.

How To Make Creamy Milkshake Without Cream

The good bites topic of today is "how to make creamy milkshake without cream!"

THE SIMPLE AND THE FABULOUS

A few scoops of ice-cream plus blending are all it takes to make the traditional milkshake.
It's creamy and yummy but probably not low fat. 

We want to introduce this "new" milkshake that is easy-made, healthy, non-fat, supper yummy and fresh. The two flavors we demonstrate today are: strawberry banana milkshake and green tea banana milkshake. 

Ingredients: fresh strawberry and banana

matcha (green tea) powder

milk (your choice of whole, low fat or non fat milk) 

Prepare time: less than 5 minutes of each cup

Steps: chop the strawberry and banana,

put the strawberry and banana (or matcha and banana) into the blender

add milk and blend 

Probably you've found the secret behind.
That is right. Banan is the secret for making this natural creamy milkshake!
What are the nutrition facts of banana? Check out the article below. 

Banana: "One banana contains 467mg of potassium, providing powerful protection to the cardiovascular system. Another benefit to bananas high potassium content derives from that mineral's role as an energy-supplying electrolyte. Since bananas also contain tryptophan, serotonin and norepinephrine, they help prevent depression while encouraging feelings of well-being and relaxation. In addition, the vitamin B6 in bananas helps protect against sleeplessness, mood swings and irritability." (Resource: Banana nutrition facts)

Blue Spring

Overall it's cold and windy in San Francisco, through out the year.
Luckily it's a sunny day today!
Spring has arrived and you can tell from the rapid growth of the plants and their fresh green color.
There are new leaves and blossoms grown on the tiny apple tree in our yard.
I remember last year except the Spring time, the apple tree was bald for the rest of the year.

I bought this navy color summer dress in Zara from my trip in Paris last year.
I like the classic navy and white strip pattern.
It's easy to match the dress with other accessaries.
The blue/navy dress matches perfectly with these handmade labradorite necklace and the clutch box.

I hope you are enjoying the Spring season!

And...don't forget to enter our Handmade Raw Ruby Necklace Giveaway.
