First Steps

I finally took the step to start my own blog. I have been meaning to start one for so long, anyway it’s never too late for anything. I love to cook and I love to eat. I have been putting pictures on FB of all my cooking attempts and have been receiving request for recipes. So here goes my blog on food, nothing exotic, mainly what I cook every day and probably some stuff on my kids, I have two boys and maybe some rants about work and other stuff.

Cucumber, Carrot and Walnut Salad with Grapes and Apples

You will need
1 Cucumber, washed, peeled and cut into cubes, alternatively you can use the tender cucumbers, one bunch cut.
1 Carrot, washed, peeled and cut into cubes
Red or Green Grapes a handful, cut or added whole it depends on your taste,
1 Apple, washed and cut into cubes
1 Onion- cut finely
A handful of walnuts chopped roughly
Coriander leaves for garnishing
Juice of a fresh lemon.
Salt to taste

Wash all the ingredients and mix together.
Add salt according to your taste.
Add the lemon juice and mix.
Garnish with coriander leaves.

This is a good snack that you can have at 4:00pm, will keep you going till your dinner. I sometimes serve it along with lunch. I love the sweetness of the grapes and apple along with the crunchiness of the walnuts and carrots
