A little with a big name-fitting for the wonders it performs. This is a salad we came up with (yes a Chef and Steward Original) specifically because of the high Omega-3 mood elevating benefits of the main ingredients. Walnuts are extremely high in the nutrient and second only to flaxseeds on the list of high Omega-3 foods. Almonds and spinach are also very good sources. Add orange segments for a lovely citrus note. All of these flavours also work very well together so you have a healthy mood elevating salad which is also very tasty!. Toss in some raisins and make a Red Wine/Red Grape Vinaigrette with 1 part red wine/red grape vinegar with 1 part olive oil and a tiny pinch of salt and whisk together to emulsify. Pour over salad right before serving and toss. Feel better already!

Usually I have only had expat holidays with the ex-husband and our son. That means this is Jaja’s first time with extended family in his...Read More »Continue Reading»

So when my Hubby is in a bad mood I just need to force him to eat this? I don’t think it’d be that hard. It’s beautiful and sounds delicious.
