Spice up your coffee

A quick note to make your everyday coffee more interesting and add flavor.

Take a pinch of cinnamon and drop it into the ground coffee in the filter prior to brewing in the coffee maker. Cinnamon is a real flavor boost that is subtle and tasty. Note: more than a pinch will be overpowering, so be careful.

Great breaded tilapia

Bought this tilapia from Costco. Best bet is to cook at 375deg for about 15 minutes flip and cook other side for 15 minutes or until browned and cooked thoroughly.

The tartar sauce is the best. 2 tbsp lite mayo, 1 tbsp polish mustard, 1 tspn ground pepper and 1 tspn of sweet pickle relish. Really good with a light fish like tilapia. Enjoy.

Burgers with the works

1/4 lb ground sirloin
1 cup sautéed onions
Old Bay Seasoning
Chopped cherry peppers
Mayo to taste
Cut lettuce

Sauté onions and cook burgers, season to taste.

Spread mayo on the top of the buns, spread chopped red cherry peppers on the mayo, place lettuce on the peppers. Build your burger and enjoy. So good and so easy to make.

Garlic resource

I will keep this short and sweet. Found a website that has some great info regarding garlic, the health benefits, how to prepare and use in food, etc. Garlic is such a great spice/root. I love it and use it often. Enjoy.
