Green Iron Booster Smoothie

Ingredients: for 2 pax
1 medium cucumber
1 bunch of spinach
3 kiwis
1 cup of grapes
Water

Mix all the ingredients and enjoy.
Don’t be intimidated by the green color of juice. Though green is not the usual color of drinks, the taste is good.
The flavors of grapes and kiwi will mask the taste of spinach.
I can’t believe I’m able to try this. Haha.

VERDICT
WILL:  Abbey showed me the next concoction of our juice and his eyes glimmer! Haha! 

What are the ingredients? Kiwi, green grapes, cucumber, and spinach. Cucumber and spinach were bland, kiwi and grapes gave it’s sweet flavour in the juice! It is green and it will make you feel healthy. 

Go! Go! Boost your Iron!

1 can of whole kernel corn
1 can of cream-style corn
1 egg
1/3 cup oil
1 cup milk
Sugar (optional)

Preheat the oven to 204 C.
Grease a baking pan.

Bake for 25-28 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
Serve with coffee or tea.

VERDICT
WILL: The menu is in Abbey’s hands from 2017 and non-availability of some ingredients hinders him in baking it. But once it was written in our calendar, he can’t do anything but cook it! Haha! So, he looked north, south, east and west just to find the main ingredient. The corn mill! Haha! 

The bread is moist, and the aroma unleashes everytime it is in front of you. The corn kernels bids the taste like it was corn muffin of Kenny Rogers! Winner! 

Wondering what will be the next product on Abbey’s baking session!

VERDICT
ABBEY : Every now and then Wilma is reinventing our pasta flavors. Now she made it with shrimp, cilantro and lime. The flavor is bursting on each bite. I really like the “zesty-ness” of lime. It went well with shrimp and complements the cilantro. Try it on your next pasta dinner.
