Kale & Eggs

I usually buy kale in a huge bag.. After making kale chips, smoothies and soups, I thought I would do something breakfasty.. 

It was super wasy.. Sauté minced garlic and slices of onion in some olive oil or coconut oil.  Add 3-4 handfuls of kale. Add some chicken broth and soy sauce to taste.

Fry 2 eggs to your liking and place on top of the kale.  I like a few drops of green Tabasco on mine.

Kumquat Gin Tonic

After spending last summer in Spain, I truly appreciate a good Gin Tonic.

If you haven't tried one lately, I suggest you do!  It's all about the ingredients.  

This cocktail happened out of necessity and is now one of my favourites!

The kumquats add a little zing but if you don't have them around or they aren't in season, a slice of cucumber will suffice.

Just like it says on the bottle of Fevertree Tonic.. "If 3/4 of your cocktail is a mixer, use the best".  And after trying many tonics, I've found Fever Tree Mediterranean Tonic to be the best. You can find it at BevMo, some Safeway stores or Amazon.  Hendrick's is always my go to Gin.. Just the right amount of botanicals - delicious!

This is so refreshing and delicious!

Kumquat Gin Tonic

Fill a glass with ice, add the Gin, then the tonic.  Squeeze the kumquats and drop them in.  Give it a stir and enjoy!  Perfect for anytime, really!
