Kielbasa Sausage & Basil Stew with Dumplings

When I am deciding what to cook for dinner,
I generally make the decision of what meat I feel like first
and then work everything else around that.
Last week Thursday I decided I felt like a stew but wanted to
do something a little different...

I Had a browse through some pork recipe images on google
and came up with a very interesting concoction of my own by
combining and altering a couple of different recipes,
and daaaamn was it a good end result :)

Tabasco & Cajun BRAAI'D Chicken

There were two kinds of HOT happening tonight...
One was good for the soul,
and the other good for the tummy! hehe
and I can PROMISE you -
if you are a lover of "HOTSTUFF"
You will Luuuuurv the latter!!!

🍒🍒🍒🍒🍒🍒

Creamy Butternut, Bacon and Blue Cheese Soup

Soup is one of those really easy "go to" meals...
throw it all in a pot, leave it and hey presto! haha!
Normally, my favourite would be a lamb and vegetable soup,
but for whatever reason, yesterday I felt like a creamy soup
and so butternut was a total no brainer for me haha...
Except I decided to PIMP it up a little...

Ok, so now...
let's go check out what everyone else has been cooking up!

Beat the Heat with a Sweet Treat "Buko Pandan"

By: @watersnake101

It's scorching outside with a temperature of 36° C. No firewood cooking today but instead let's have a little fun and prepare a sweet treat that can cool you down in this kind of weather. A popular dessert which is simple to make and enjoyable to eat. This dessert is uniquely Filipino and has turned into an actual flavor for other treats. A flavor for ice cream, cakes, shakes, salad, cookies and the possibilities are endless. During parties and celebrations this dessert is often present for the occasion.

Real deal grill! 👌🍺👍

By: @rado21ste

For me, one more grill proposal, because we're at the epicenter of the season. This time I will show you how to make a barbecue in supreme version, thanks to which you certainly will not fall into the complexes during a family barbecue, and on the contrary you probably will not be able to shake off the plate full of delicacies from people eager...

🍒🍒🍒🍒🍒🍒

🍒 This challenge goes out to all the real Steemit foodies 🍒
Yes peeps...
it's time WHIP out the creative cook in you!

Let me just say that this challenge is open to EVERYONE
(Boys and girls, Young and old)
whether you consider yourself a professional,
novice or complete disaster in the kitchen!

The objective here is purely creativity!

It's as easy as PIE, I promise hehe
(see what I did there...huh? huh? lol - ok, moving along...)

INTRODUCING THE

🍒

THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE CHALLENGE

In addition to being a complete wine glutton hehe, I am also a HUGE foodie as my @steemitbloggers family know well… I absolutely LOVE to cook (and eat...lol) - always experimenting with different ingredient and flavour combinations. I seldom follow recipes verbatim – most of the time, I will whizz through them, glancing briefly at the ingredients and method – then heading off to the supermarket, forgetting most of what I have read on the recipe and then improvising,
ending up with something totally awesome and unique!

I know how much I love pushing the boundaries and experimenting in the kitchen, no matter how outlandish the ideas may seem to others. I also love to learn from others and then adapt the ideas to my own tailored tastes. So I thought it would be awesome to see how creative other people get in their kitchens... whether it is a "pimp'd" toasted cheese sandwich or a "rebel" gourmet appetiser.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

Yes, here comes the boring recipe part
with rules and boundaries... JUUUST KIDDING!
