Best Dandy Lion Romaine Salad

Makes: 8 servings Total Time: 25 min

what you need:

4 cups fresh tender/young dandelion greens
1 head romaine lettuce
6 quartered tomatoes
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced green pepper
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
1/4 cup virgin olive oil
A dash of salt and pepper
3/4 cup Kraft Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Cut all vegetable ingredients to desired size and mix in salad bowl.

Add raspberry vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper and cheese; toss well.

Serve slightly chilled. Notes Obviously, decrease ingredients for fewer servings.

It is important to pick fresh young dandelion greens (right out of your own yard if you have them, and use no fertilizers, weed killers, or insecticides, etc. And make sure you do not have storm drainage in the growing area, as this can pollute the yard with oils from the road, etc.)

You must taste the greens. What most people desire is young tender NON bitter greens, and sometimes older greens are not bitter and can be used as well. You may use the flowers too in the salad as a garnishing, or decoratively and of course they can be eaten as well. Rinse all well. Even the root can be boiled and made into dandelion tea, very lemony tasting and nutritious.

Dandelion has more minerals and vitamins then most all store bought vegetables, even spinach. Enjoy, and use your own ideas to make to you liking and tastes.

Cajun Shrimp Omelette

Wwhat you need:

3 large eggs
Butter
1 medium onion, diced
8-12 shrimp
1 package Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese
Cajun spices to your liking or Old Bay
1 jar spaghetti sauce
Paprika

Whip eggs together in bowl and pour into large generously buttered pre-heated pan. Let cook until eggs begin to solidify, usually between med-med/hi heat.

Add diced onions, as many shrimp as you can (cut in half length wise if desired), Philadelphia Cream Cheese as desired, Cajun spices as desired, and spaghetti sauce if desired.

Once warm, flip lonely half of omelette over to cover ingredients. Sprinkle with paprika for looks.

A real special omelette that can be served as an entire meal, even at dinner time. This is a big omelette.....that's how I love them. So if you like smaller just cut back on the ingredients and let your eyes and taste judge the ingredients and their respective quantities.

The Cream Cheese is a must with the shrimp, the rest is to your liking. Experiment, have fun, and most of all enjoy.

If high cholesterol is a problem for you, use no cholesterol butter or margarine as well as no or less saturated fat butter or margarine....E.B. (Eggland's Best Eggs, or Egg Beaters), low fat Philadelphia Cream Cheese.

Just a helpful note...low cholesterol margarine with high saturated fats naturally creates the "BAD CHOLESTEROL" we do not desire in our diet as a natural process of the body. Stay away from the saturated fats, that is if you have too!!! Enjoy and Good health !!!

Rum Frosty Recipe

Here is a fun one...before drinking...Drive to Wendy's and buy a large Frosty per drink to be made...once home, add 4 oz. of Bacardi Brand Dark Rum per Frosty (or to taste)...add Caramel and swirl entire drink with a teaspoon...garnish with drizzled Caramel and top with whipped cream and Chocolate Flakes...Chill non-served portion in fridge or freezer...and as always ENJOY!

Bacon et Poulet with Poivron Vert et Crevettes (Bacon and Chicken with Green Pepper stuffed with shrimp)

NEW RECIPE:

Bacon et Poulet with Poivron Vert et Crevettes (Bacon and Chicken with Green Pepper stuffed with shrimp)

Baked chicken breast (not covered, let's bacon crisp well) wrapped in bacon after coating with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Topped with bananna pepper slice (from our garden), use whatever is on hand (bell pepper, jalapeno to spice it up, tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes, etc.)

serve with:

Shrimp Stuffed Peppers

remove top of Green peppers and remove contents, cook on stove top Uncle bens wild rice (10 minutes), place 2 tsps of tomatoe soup in each pepper, the 3-4 shrimp, cover with rice mixture, then add more shrimp into rice, then cover all with more tomatoe soup, can cover with cheese of choice for last 3 minutes of baking

I baked all on the same pan at 350 for about an hour...quick and easy to prepare and absolutely delightful !!!

Hey Man...Is that you ?


ComScore


September 18, 2010...SUNSHINE DAYDREAM TERRA ALTA, WV

Hey man ...is that you ?

Tie-dyed visual illuminations,
kept drifting over to me,
perhaps they had been drinking,
from a favorite cup of tea.

They gazed upon my face,
with both certainty and confusion,
was that me they were looking at,
or merely their illusion?

Hey man..is that you?
I heard so many times that night,
faces can get distorted,
time gets twisted, so does light.

Yeah bro, it must be me,
because so many have asked so quick,
new friends found I've many,
glad we all took this trip.

The eclectic music was contagious,
dancing souls all around,
better with each moment passing,
one happy family did abound.

I met Gulliver stumbling on his travels,
he was being followed by a bear,
that was what he last mumbled,
before passing out without a care.

tied down with rope and tent spikes,
and glorified with glitter,
a magic marker face was painted upon,
he made a perfect picture.

Many came to our camp site,
some lucid and some in a blur,
but one thing we shared in common,
was the bonding love so pure.

I saw a mountain top in the distance,
drumming heard from behind,
the fog lay in the valley mystic,
stars twinkled in abundance from all of time.

The night time sky so enchanting,
Jupiter above stold the show,
reflecting in all it's glory,
with bright intensity it was aglow.

Closest to the earth tonight,
on this day since 1963,
Looked like I could see its rings,
smiling back at me.

It's morning back at camp,
breakfast aromas fill the air,
friends coming often to visit,
and breakfast we do share.

We talk about the music we heard,
and the impressions that were left,
such an auspicious atmosphere,
all thankful to be guests.

Breakfast aroma still a lively boquet,
dancing in the morning air,
another hippabilly walking over,
smiling witout a care.

says...Hey Man...Is that you?,
sure is, sit and eat,
and with your morning breakfast,
please do not forget your tea.

Transcendental Illumination


ComScore Twinkling lights
Like illuminated needles of intensity
Sparkle all over my field of vision
guiding my thoughts…Luminescent transcendancy

Tingling sensations race down synaptic highways
Central nervous system in overdrive
Smiling and laughter are so natural and easy
It’s a great day to be alive

We are all just one happy family
Love emitting like photons from the sun
Contagious and a beautiful condition
Everybody desires some

Lives weaved into a fluid tapestry
Lived like a masterpiece hung on display
Life here springs youthfully eternal
Will you join us on your way

Here there is an inner peace
That warms from deep within the soul
If you to can feel it
Just trust, and go with that flow

Welcome to true love
The most tranquil and exciting place to reside
Kick back relax and enjoy it
This is the sweetest ride
