Beef Rolls with Enoki and Veggies

My family loves these Beef Rolls with Enoki and Veggies. Since there is protein, veggies and mushrooms all bundled together, it is the perfect standalone, well-rounded meal which makes me love it even more. They are soo good — with all that sauce — served on rice! Once the bundles are prepared, they cook in a matter of minutes right in the pan along with the sauce. Faster than the time it takes to cook the rice. Dinner is served!

Blueberry Iced Latte

Blueberry and coffee is one of those flavour combos people smugly hashtag #IYKYK every time they put it together (kk that might be me lol). This BLUEBERRY ICED LATTE is a celebration of that flavour pairing in a tall, delicious, gorgeous glass! I highly recommend topping it with dashes of cinnamon not just for garnish but as a flavour boost because cinnamon intensifies the flavour of blueberries. #IYKYK 😉

Spaghetti Napolitan (Japanese Ketchup Pasta)

Ketchup hits so many of our taste senses: sweet, tangy, salty and umami. In Japanese SPAGHETTI NAPOLITAN (aka Japanese Ketchup Pasta), it is cooked with smokey bacon, earthy mushrooms, sweet bell peppers and onions in this unique pasta dish. Unique to the Western palate, I mean. This isn’t the ketchup pasta you might give a picky toddler and it certainly isn’t a pasta you’ll find at an Italian restaurant. I know it sounds sacrilegious but I’m telling you, don’t knock it til you try it!
