Book Club Brunch with Gevalia Coffee and Safeway + Cinnamon Blueberry Bites!

     I am part of a book club.  We have the best time and each month someone hosts our club.  Sometimes we go out for dinner or brunch and other times we host at our houses.  This month was my turn to host and I decided to have a Book Club Brunch at my house.  Thanks to Gevalia and Safeway it was a snap to make some delicious sweets for my brunch and to serve them up with steaming cups of Gevalia coffee.


  
  Gevalia began brewing coffee in Gavle, Sweden in 1853, where traditional cast-iron roasting developed its distinctively rich, smooth taste that’s never bitter.   I've been drinking this coffee for years but somehow I never noticed that they had K-cups!  Did you know that Gevalia now comes in single serve cups for your Keurig® K-Cup® Brewer, perfect for a quick Gevalia fix?*  I was super excited when I went to my local Safeway and looked in the coffee aisle and found them! The convenience of Safeway and the great prices on a variety of items made it easy to host my book club brunch.   I found everything I needed to make a delicious brunch.

     For the brunch I bought both the Gevalia Signature Blend K-cups and the Gevalia Columbia coffee K-cups*.  I served fruit with Orange Creamsicle Dip, Cookie Butter Granola Bites, and Cinnamon Blueberry Breakfast Bites.  All three were sweet, delicious, and tasted amazing with a fresh made cup of Gevalia Coffee that is expertly made with carefully selected beans and ground extra-fine to produce a rich coffee experience.  While I enjoyed both flavors I purchased, I thought their Signature Blend was the perfect compliment to our breakfast sweets.  The other women at book club were divided on which blend they liked best but everyone agreed that Gevalia Coffee is perfect when served with sweets.

     We had a great time at book club and even after the sweets were gone we all enjoyed another steaming cup of Gevalia coffee while we discussed our latest book pick, The Handmaid's Tale.

CSA Wednesdays: Fried Paneer Salads

     It's Wednesday again!  (Actually, I just realized that it's only Tuesday and that I only THOUGHT it was Wednesday.  So this post is a day early but please enjoy!)  My husband again went to the farmer's market to get our share from Goodness Grows.  I can't wait until school is out for the summer so I can start going!  I miss seeing all those beautiful fruits and vegetables. 

     This week in our CSA share we received a bag of mixed greens, a bag of spinach, beets, garlic, paneer, yogurt, strawberries, and basil.  I was particularly excited about the paneer because I've been wanting to cook with that for a while.  Before I get to that let me share what I made with the rest.

   
I used the strawberries in a strawberry pie I was making.  Then we used the spinach in our favorite tofu dish; Chili Lime Tofu with Sauteed Spinach.  We used the yogurt in an onion dip.

      Then I fried the paneer with some of the garlic and other spiced and we served it on top of the mixed greens tossed with some of the basil.  It was delicious.  I actually heard one of my Indian students talking about eating it this way and I looked up several recipes for it before making it my own way.  Neither my husband or I had ever had paneer before but we thought it was delicious on top of the salad.

Fried Paneer Salad  (a Hezzi-D original)
4 c. mixed greens
2 carrots, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
2 T. fresh basil, chopped
4-6 oz. paneer
1 1/2 t. garam masala
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 t. black pepper
1 t. sea salt
2 T. olive oil
1/4 c. balsamic vinaigrette

1.  In a large bowl toss the mixed greens, carrots, pepper, and basil.  Divide between two plates and set aside.

2.  Slice the paneer into 1/4 inch thick slices.  In a small bowl combine the garam masala, black pepper, and salt.

3.  Gently rub each piece of paneer with the minced garlic then sprinkle with the garam masala mixture. 

4.  Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat.  Add in the paneer and cook for 4-5 minutes or until it is a deep golden brown.  Flip it over and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the underside is golden.  Remove and drain on a paper towel lined plate.

5.  Divide the paneer between the two salads and top with balsamic vinaigrette.

Pasta Fagioli: Meatless Monday

     It's the last week of school until summer!  Woohoo!  I am happy that we will soon be out for the summer and I can take a much needed break.  I just have to get through this last week. Because of the large amount of snow days and even a few hurricane days from the fall, we're going pretty late this year. Our student's had 3 hurricane days waived so now the teachers have to go for 5 days after the students.  This wouldn't be bad if we had time to work in our rooms, but instead we have professional development everyday.  I'm as bad as my kids when I'm in PD; I can't sit still for more then 30 minutes.

     Since it's summer the farmer's market is in full swing and fresh fruits and vegetables are everywhere.  This week I wanted to make soup with some of those beautiful veggies.  I decided on Pasta Fagioli because I haven't had it in forever.  I bought some fresh spinach and carrots at the farmer's market and then got the rest of the ingredients at the market.

      Pasta Fagioli is great because it's a cross between vegetable soup and pasta with vegetables.  I love pasta in my soup so this was perfect for me.  The broth is very flavorful and each bite is full of pasta and veggies which makes it filling but still light enough to eat in the summer.  I had no idea this was one of my husbands favorite soups and he thoroughly enjoyed it as well. 

Pasta Fagioli (adapted from Skinnytaste)
1 T. olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 c. fresh spinach, stems removed
2 carrots, finely chopped
1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans
1 (15 oz) can crushed tomatoes
2 t. fresh parsley, minced
1 t. oregano
1 t. thyme
1-2 t. black pepper
4 c. vegetable broth
2 c. water
8 oz. small pasta (I used Ditalini)
1/4 c. fresh grated Parmesan cheese

1.  Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat.  Add in the onion and garlic and saute for 3-4 minutes or until the onion turns translucent.

2.  Add the spinach, carrots, beans, tomatoes, parsley, oregano, thyme, pepper, vegetable broth, and water to the pot.  Bring to a boil.  

3.  Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.


4.  Add in the pasta and cook for 10-12 minutes or until it is cooked through.  Remove from heat, ladle into bowls, and top with fresh Parmesan cheese.

Fish with Black Bean Sauce #SundaySupper

Happy Father's Day!  This week #SundaySupper is celebrating our dads.  I am lucky enough that while you are reading this I am on my way home to Pittsburgh to see my dad for Father's Day.  Not only that but my brother and I are running in Pittsburgh's version of The Amazing Race so it should be an action packed day.

I’m always on the lookout for new fish recipes.  I’ve only been eating fish for a handful of years now and I’m not very good at cooking it.  Whenever I eat fish I think of my dad.  When we were little he used to take my brother and I fishing every summer.  I was not your typical girly girl and I loved putting the worm on my hook and pulling the fish out of the water.  I stopped fishing when I hit 16 but my brother and my dad still go together to this day.  

Father Daughter Dance at my wedding

Another reason fish make me think of my dad because growing up I flat out refused to eat them so we never had fish at home.  Mom never cooked fish unless it was something we brought home whenever we went fishing.  So many times when we go out to eat my father would order fish and chips or a fish sandwich since he never got to eat fish at home.  Now that I do eat a limited number of fish I'm hoping to cook it for him someday day.  

I wanted to make a fish dish for Father's Day to show my dad I'm thinking about him. He is such a patient and kind man and he's the best listener there is.  So I set off searching for the perfect fish recipe.  I’ve seen recipes for fish with black bean sauce before but I’ve never wanted to try them because they looked too complicated.  When I came across this recipe it looked easy enough so I gave it a try.  

Dad's 60th Birthday Party

The fish was cooked almost perfectly in the oven with the peppers.  I love that you put the fish in the parchment paper to cook because it seals in the juices and flavors.  The black bean sauce was thick and a little salty.  It made the perfect pairing for the light flavor of the tilapia.  The vegetables added color and flavor to this dish as well.  I hope I get to make this for my dad soon!

Fish with Black Bean Sauce (adapted from Tes atHome )

4 tilapia filets

½ c. green peppers, thinly sliced

½ c. red pepper, thinly sliced

½ c. onions, thinly sliced

1 T. olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 T. ginger, chopped

1 T. sesame oil

2 T. green chili, chopped

2 T. black bean paste

1 T. sugar

1 T. cornstarch

2 T. rice vinegar

1 T. soy sauce

1-2 T. water

1.        Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. 

2.       Cut 4 parchment squares.  On each square place a tilapia filet.  Season with salt and pepper then place ¼ of the peppers and onion on top of it.  Fold parchment over each fish and roll to seal, creating a parchment packet.
 

3.       Place parchment packets on a baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes.

4.       Meanwhile, heat oil in a small skillet.  Add garlic and ginger and stir until fragrant.   Add all additional ingredients to pan except water and cook for 4-5 minutes.  Add in water until the sauce is thick, but spreadable.

5.       Remove parchment packets from the oven.  Place fish and vegetables on a plate and top with black bean sauce.  Serve with rice.
