Spicy Basil Thai Pasta

Thai is one of my favorite foods. The spice is unlike any other, spicy but with a lot of flavor. Thai pasta doesn’t require a lot of sauce which I like. This pasta is a very easy recipe to make as long as you boil the noodles right! Any extra time may make them mushy. It is a nice way to spice up the dinner table during the week.

Rating: Once again it is a cinch to cook and delicious to eat! Try it and let me know what you think.

Easter Fish With A Tang!

I hope you are all enjoying your Easter weekend, and are spending with family and loved ones.  Easter as we all know is a special time, it is a time when we remember what Jesus Christ put himself through just to 'save mankind'.  It's also a time when LENT is over, so for those of you who had to give up something during lent (40 days), your time is almost over.   For others its a time of waiting for the traditional Easter Eggs, lots of chocolate, eater egg hunts and the like to look forward to.

In our family, traditionally on Easter Friday we tend to eat fish.  Normally my mother who is from a West Indian background would do some Escovitch Fish and we would have this with some traditional 'hard dough bread'.  But this year I kind of broke with tradition and together with my partner Glenn, we made a fish dish from Levi Roots cook book  " Hot Roast Snapper with Coconut Salsa".   This was so straight forward to do, and cooked in a healthy way, definitely good food you can eat if you want to keep track of your calories.

So I thought I would share the recipe and a video showing off our efforts...

Enjoy The Rest Of Easter!
