The Ramble – We had peppers, we wanted a no meat dinner…after some research I found a simply and delicious recipe from Minimal List Baker. There is a lot of room to change the recipe if you like. I basically followed it. The tasteful burst of chili, cumin and garlic with salsa and avocado is…
Chicken Soup with bacon bits
The Ramble – It has been wet here in Seattle, indeed it’s similar to the weather in Ireland!! I wanted some hot wholesome food and what better than a pot of chicken soup. The fridge was looking pretty bare but I used what I had and it worked well. The crock-pot appeared and you can…

Thrive’s Bella burger and Alive juice
The Ramble – I drive past this cafe called Thrive nearly everyday and a few weeks ago I came across a groupon so I purchased it and tonight I decided I would have dinner there after Crossfit. The first thing that struck me was the expansive menu, very creative indeed. The burger is meat free,…

The Ramble – Well folks this is my first cheersthen1759 original recipe and it was totally off-the-cuff!! We had some left over stuff around and food that needed to be cooked before it turned. I was a little nervous as I didn’t know how it would turnout, would it bind together? How long to bake…
Cabbage wraps with cauliflower rice and Italian sausage
The Ramble – I’ve been making a real effort over the last few months to cut down on bread, wraps, cakes and generally all refined grains. I was missing sandwiches. The crunch.

Acorn squash with cauliflower rice and kale

Rogue Shakespeare Stout
The Ramble – So there we were in Latona bar near Greenlake in Seattle. The bar is highly recommended and I can see why. Not knowing what they served (I’m from Ireland and have been in Seattle just 3 weeks) I asked for something similar to Guinness, yes I know, how fitting of an Irishman!!…
