Goodbye Summer Stuffed Avocado recipe

September 4, 2015 by bubafabulous Leave a Comment

Ree Drummond from thepioneerwoman.com is one of my favorite food bloggers because of how easily she cooks up her meals. This recipe is inspired by her version of stuffed avocado although mine is more juicy because it is stuffed with…wait for it…salmon! Salmon is not only one of the healthier foods you can eat, however it’s also mouthwateringly delicious and cooks in minutes! This to me would be the perfect post-workout meal because it’s bursting with all types of juicy protein and is incredibly satisfying.

It could also make for an ideal Goodbye summer outdoors get-together. All you’d have to do is cut up the avocados in half and offer a bunch of stuffing options so your guests can custom make theirs.

Finally, a few tips before you get to cooking…

Try not to over cook the veggies and potatoes to avoid everything from being mushy. Also the crunchyness from the bell peppers will make it all taste better.
You can get creative with your stuffing options but be careful not to make too much because avocados have a small space in the middle.
And lastly the pharmacy student in me can’t leave without advising you to fully cook all meats to avoid a serious case of bacterial infections.

Tag me in your versions of this recipe @FabsCulture…because I’m nosy like that.

A lovely Labor Day weekend to you all, Buba.

P.s I’m heading out of town for the weekend…follow me on Snapchat @FabsCulture to find out where and see me create my make up looks.

Tropical Shreds

August 13, 2014 by bubafabulous Leave a Comment

Mid-week post? Here’s another super easy recipe. It’s pretty similar to last time’s…except for a little twist. I think that beef is called Fajita beef, I found it in Walmart and I like that its shredded cos I can use it for everything except for making fajitas…I’m not a corn flour person. As usual let’s start by making up a name…something like “Tropical Shreds” haha…I’m so sorry you guys but it would be very weird if I had no names so there you go.

So as you can see, my beef was frozen, and little miss impatient inside of me wasn’t going to sit and wait so I popped that sucker in there with a little water and let it simmer while loosening up as I chopped bell peppers, onions and tomatoes. Even after it loosened up, I let it simmer a little more with some salt for about 30 minutes so it could get ready.

I then drained the water, added onions and stirred for a bit more, with one table spoon of olive oil (I measured with my eyes) to get those little brown edges. Next I sprinkled ginger garlic, turmeric, red pepper curry and cumin powders…a little more than a of pinch of each and continued to mix it up for about a minute.

In went the tomatoes and bell peppers and some more stirring till the tomatoes softened up and done! It’s a real spice party in there so pair it with something plain like white rice.
