Mr. Nicholas, with his post: Cheaters Smoked Salmon Pizza, on his blog: Intelliblog.

Curious why Mr. Nicholas called this Cheaters Smoked Salmon Pizza? Looks delicious, doesn't it? If you love pizza (like me!), then click on the shot and see how you can make this yourself, too!

Since it's now summer time here (and my kids are not so keen on summer classes - can't blame them! lol), we have been waking up late. That's why our breakfast these days are usually heavier than our school days breakfast fare (fruit, soft boiled eggs, and juice/hot choco, plus the occasional cereals), which should be done in a flash. lol. Here's our "usual" summer late breakfast food: Eggs Two Ways, is how I'd like to call this. :P

Ingredients

• Eggs
• Potatoes (diced)
• Bellpepper (diced)
• Tomatoes (diced)
• Chili leaves (or use what you have available)
• salt, pepper, garlic, onions
• Coconut oil for frying

Procedures

• A. Put the diced potatoes on hot pan with oil. Then add the bellpepper, garlic, onions and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Put everything in the center of the pan, then top with the chili leaves (careful, there might be a bit of oil splashing since the leaves are "wet"). Immediately put the egg on top, some salt, then cover the pan (so that the leaves and egg will cook because of the steam).
• I like my egg "cooked" on top (am not a fan of "raw" eggs, though it does look good in pictures. lol), so I waited till it was no longer "red".
• Remove from the pan and transfer to a plate. Sprinkle with pepper.

**I added salt on the egg before putting on the cover; you may omit this, if you want. Instead, you may add the salt and pepper together after transferring the whole thing to a plate.

• B. Place potatoes on hot pan with oil. After a few minutes, add the bellpepper, then the garlic, onions, and tomatoes. Add salt and pepper.
• Remove from the pan once cooked.
• If there are no more any oil on the pan, add about a tablespoon. Once hot, add the beaten egg.
• Put the cooked mixture on top of the scrambled egg, then some chili leaves. Place on one side only, so that you can easily flip the other side to cover the mixture.
• Cook some more, if you want, by flipping the whole thing over.
• Drizzle with ketchup, or whatever you fancy.

Both dishes were yummy served with toast and our desired drinks (we all had hot choco that day). It's delicious with hot steamed rice, too, am sure. Yes, I will be serving more of this the next couple of days. Most probably change the chili leaves to whatever I have available! Or maybe add plantain bananas. LOL. Crazy, huh?! :)

Please don't forget to add a link back to this site (you can get the buttons here; deciding to use text instead of buttons is fine also) to be able to add your posts below. Many thanks and hope everyone is going to have a great time this weekend!

The Featured in Food Friday player for this week is....

Ms. Chelo who owns the blog Home and Bahay, with her blog post: Caldereta: A Kin to Beef Stew

Caldereta is one dish that I love eating, but haven't really tried cooking. After reading Ms. Chelo's delicious food post  (together with her yummy food shots) I told myself it's about time I give it a try! Whether you've tried it yourself, or not, why don't you check out her own version of caldereta...I think you might like her version, too!

My food post for this week is something really easy (and quite common, lol): Bacon and Potatoes in Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients used:

• Eggs (two)
• Bacon (roughly four slices, chopped)
• Potatoes (two medium sized, diced)
• salt, pepper .
• milk (around a tablespoon)

What I did:

• Place bacon on hot pan (no need to add oil) and brown. Take the cooked bacon out of the pan and remove most of the oil, leaving just enough to fry the diced potatoes.
• In the meantime, beat the eggs together with the milk, salt and pepper.
• When the potatoes are done, pour in the egg mixture. Top with the bacon bits.
• Take out of the pan whenever you want; personally, I like mine 'fully cooked'. xD

Ate that together with an apple and some buttered toast, with my coffee. That was my lunch a couple of days ago. I am a breakfast person, meaning I love having breakfast any time of the day! LOL :P

Food Friday

This week's Featured in Food Friday player is ......

Ms. Peachkins, who blogs over at The Peach Kitchen, with her post:
Easy To Do Witch Hats For Your Children's Halloween Party.

Now that's a very ingenious way of using chocolates, chocolate covered biscuits, food color, and frosting! I really enjoy dropping by The Peach Kitchen not only because of the awesome food shots but also because of Ms. Peachkins' way of writing: direct to the point. Now, we all have lives outside the internet, so getting the gist of the post the soonest is important (for me); that gives me more time to browse on her other posts! Want to know what other creative stuffs Ms. Peachkins have posted for Halloween? Then don't wait any longer...click and visit!

Another breakfast post for me (I am a breakfast fan, lol) ...Tuna Paella with Bananas and Eggs.

I know, I cheated on this one (for me, the faster the better, lol) because I used a can of tuna paella. Yup, from a can. :i

Ingredients:

• cooked rice
• bananas (plantain variety)
• eggs
• cooking oil, tomatoes, salt, pepper,
• a can of tuna paella

Procedure:

• Halve some plantain bananas and fry. Set aside.
• Saute tomatoes, add in some scrambled eggs, season with salt and pepper. When cooked to your liking, remove from the pan and set aside.
• Open canned tuna paella and place contents on pan. No need to add oil since it is already rather oily. Stir and mix in cooked plain rice (even if the canned paella already has rice, i wanted to add plain rice since i find it too strong for my taste). Continue mixing until well incorporated, and heated through.
• Assemble everything on a plate, and enjoy!

I had that together with hot chocolate... :$
