Pineapple Banana Bread with Coconut & Macadamia Recipe | Club Foody

Fresh produce, vegetables and fruits, are good for us. They have great nutrients that contain vitamins, minerals, fiber and much more which are an important part of a healthy diet. By including them in our everyday diet, we can reduce the risk for some chronic diseases.
 
Every week David and I buy a variety of vegetables and fruits. Sometimes though, some go bad quickly and I can’t stand throwing them in the garbage so I simply have to salvage them. The best example is “bananas”. Many times, these healthy little guys go bad within a few days. When I see they are on their way out, I store them in the freezer for later use.
 
I like to use frozen bananas in smoothies or other baked goods like muffins, cakes or breads. Years ago I shared my Marbled Chocolate Pecan Banana Bread with you. It was slightly different than the regular classic bread which I don’t mind but it’s always fun to step out, creating new versions like my Pineapple Banana Bread with Macadamia & Coconut!
 
This original bread is amazing! With tropical ingredients, this Pineapple Banana Bread with Macadamia & Coconut will take you to the islands of Hawaii! It’s fresh and moist and the flavor is absolutely delicious! Although I have other versions of banana bread in my folder, this one is my favorite…
 
Quick and easy to make, this is an incredible breakfast or brunch item you definitely have to bake. Next time you open your freezer and see those frozen bananas sitting there, take them out and bake this amazing Pineapple Banana Bread with Macadamia & Coconut bread… you’ll love every bite…
Bon Appétit!

Fondue Bourguignonne Recipe • Beef Bouillon Fondue | Club Foody

For some unknown reason, several popular foods from certain eras disappeared or just became less famous. Back in the 70s’ and 80s’, there were many that we enjoyed and suddenly… they were gone! Why? I can’t explain but one thing is for sure, they were incredibly tasty…
 
There’s one that was a favorite of mine because when I was a young inexperienced cook, I was entertaining my family and friends with it. It was easy to make with not too much to do. After making a few homemade sauces (that’s never been a problem for me) and prepping the broth, this dish is pretty much done. I’m talking about Fondue Bourguignonne also known as Beef Fondue…
 
What is fun about this dish is your guests get to cook their own meat. To serve a great Fondue Bourguignonne, the sauces are the key and today I’m sharing a dozen of them with you … it’s sure to satisfy all your guests.
 
Another plus about this dish is nobody has to rush… everyone eats at their own pace. With Valentine’s Day coming soon, this is a romantic dinner you can have with your partner; just add some candle light, nice smooth music and a great bottle of wine… you know exactly where I’m going with this.
 
There’s a similar version called Chinese Fondue from Québec – now let’s not confuse this with another Chinese Fondue (also known as Chinese Hot Pot) where meat and vegetables are cooked together in a pot filled with broth. The difference between the two (Chinese Fondue from Québec and Fondue Bourguignonne) is the thickness of the meat. The meat for Chinese Fondue (still from Québec) is thinly sliced , while in Bourguignonne it’s cubed. David and I prefer it cubed but if you want to try the thinner version, just ask your butcher to slice it for you.
 
What I like to serve along with my Fondue Bourguignonne is different types of vegetables that can be skewered such as cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, peppers, etc. Baked or roasted potatoes is another great choice to add to this dish. Of course, some fresh bread like Baguettes or Dinner Rolls is a must.
 
This is a great recipe to serve for special occasions. A popular dish back then, it should definitely still be. Surprise your valentine with this Fondue Bourguignonne, take your time and enjoy each other’s company… (wink)

Quattro Formaggi Pizza Recipe • Four Cheese Pizza | Club Foody

Before I started making pizzas from scratch at home, I never thought that one day I’d be enjoying the process so much. Perhaps the fact that my very first pizza dough was a success motivated me to continue making them… Trust me, it’s not very complicated.
 
Another reason could be I enjoy creating recipes and this delicious blank canvas (pizza crust) was giving me that challenge. In fact, I really don’t care what the reasons are that keep encouraging me to make homemade pizzas… I absolutely love it! I love the smell of the yeast, the freshness of the dough and the results after I combine all the ingredients together like in this Quattro Formaggi Pizza…
 
It was easy to come up with this delicious recipe. Using fresh Italian ingredients and assembling them on my dough is so delightful. The sweetness from the sun-dried tomatoes, the heat from the hot Italian sausage and the mix of 4 different Italian cheeses, gives this Quattro Formaggi Pizza a unique, flavorful taste.
 
The 4 cheeses that I use are perfect together. There’s Mozzarella, Asiago, Fontina and Parmesan; definitely a great match! Depending on my mood, I either use my Easy-Cheesy Herb Pizza Dough, my Rustic Italian Pizza Dough, my Healthy Broccoli Pizza Dough, Ancient Multi-Grain Pizza Dough or Mushroom Lovers Pizza Dough… Can you skip making the dough from scratch? Of course but why would you? It is so much better than the premade ones…
 
When you feel like making a pizza packed with amazing flavors and that is deliciously different, this Quattro Formaggi Pizza (Four Cheese Pizza) is certainly one to choose. The flavors blend together perfectly…
Bon Appétit!

Coquilles St Jacques Recipe • Elegant and Incredibly Tasty! | Club Foody

When I was a little girl, thanks to my parents, they cooked all kinds of foods. Being picky eaters was out of question. My brother Daniel and I had to finish what was on our plates before even considering leaving the table.
 
Their parenting rule forced us (in a good way) to enjoy all kinds of dishes without lifting our noses at them. A food group that Daniel and I never had a problem with was seafood. To us, seafood was a “real treat” especially when our father was making Coquilles St Jacques!
 
This French dish is so scrumptious! With scallops in a lovely cream sauce made with béchamel and a ring of mashed potatoes, this is a fabulous appetizer. Depending on the size of your shells (coquilles), these can turn out to be a main course served with a green salad, drizzled with a light vinaigrette.
 
After the seafood and sauce mixture is done and proportionately spooned on each individual coquille, mashed potatoes are then piped around the edges. The shells are carefully transferred to the oven and baked for a few minutes until the top is nicely browned. Voilà! Your Coquilles St Jacques are done!
 
This elegant dish is so flavorful! As I mentioned, these can be served either as an appetizer or as a main course… it all depends on the size of your serving shells. With fresh ingredients, surprise your guests at your next event with these incredible Coquilles St Jacques!
Bon Appétit!

Pepper Jack Cheese Sticks Recipe • Awesome Finger Food! | Club Foody

Are you a football fan? If the answer is “yes’, I don’t need to remind you that the Super Bowl is this coming weekend. Obviously, you already knew that and started planning your house party…
 
There are a couple of big screen TVs’ around, a betting board in your living room, a cooler (or two) packed with beers on ice, all the hard liquor is out and bottles of red on the kitchen counter breathing while whites are chilling in the wine fridge. You’re prepared and ready to entertain your friends for this important sporting event.
 
Year after year I’ve posted a few recipes that are perfect for the occasion. Some of them are my Six Layer Chip Dip, Spicy Beef Nacho Supreme, several kinds of pizza, Creamy Spicy Guacamole, Pumpernickel Spinach Dip, Beef/Pork Chili or Turkey Chili Tex•Mex Style, etc. Now let’s not forget my Baked Chicken Wing recipes along with many great sauces like Mango Chipotle, Triple Chili, Ethiopian, Smoky Buffalo, Teriyaki and more…
 
Today there’s another fun finger food to add to the list… my Pepper Jack Cheese Sticks! I’m sure many of you have had mozzarella sticks in a pub before. Without reinventing the wheel, the only difference is I’m changing the type of cheese! I personally always found them to be slightly on the boring side but now with Pepper Jack cheese, it’s a different story.
 
I serve these Pepper Jack Cheese Sticks traditionally just like everyone does… with Marinara Sauce, obviously using my homemade recipe. There are some of you who prefer dipping them in Ranch, Chipotle Mayo or even Blue Cheese Dressing… it’s your call! David likes these with Spicy Red Pepper Jelly…
 
As I said, you are prepared for the event but adding these tasty Pepper Jack Cheese Sticks to your party menu will surely be a… touch down!

Ethiopian Red Pepper Sauce Recipe • Perfect for Wing Night! | Club Foody

When I started feeling more comfortable in the kitchen, one thing I was making a lot of was sauces. I had a sauce for this and this and that. Actually sauces have saved my dishes many times making them more… how can I put it… edible. What can I say – I was young, inexperienced and lacking confidence and my dishes reflected it. There’s one thing you need when it comes to cooking and it’s a “I believe in myself” attitude!
 
Since then I’ve obviously evolved and the kitchen has become my sanctuary. When it comes to creating sauces, you can bet I’m not afraid to mix ingredients together to make something different and interesting like my Ethiopian Red Pepper Sauce!
 
Similar to sweet & sour but with a tastier twist, this Ethiopian Red Pepper Sauce is so flavorful! This is probably my easiest and fastest sauce recipe of all although I do have many that are also quite simple to make such as my Buffalo, Teriyaki, Triple Chili, Mango Chipotle, and more.
 
This sauce recipe requires only 3 ingredients; spicy red pepper jelly, orange juice and berbere. Berbe… what? It’s actually an amazing spice blend that originated in Ethiopia. It is so tasty and definitely an addition you need to add to your pantry. If you cannot find it at your grocery store, you can always substitute cayenne pepper BUT it doesn’t have the depth of flavor or complexity that makes berbere spice so unique and tasty!
 
I like this sauce for its versatility. It can be poured on chicken wings or brushed over pork chops, lamb, etc. Next time you want a beautiful combination of flavors, try this Ethiopian Red Pepper Sauce… you’ll be surprised by the amazing results just 3 ingredients can give.
Bon Appétit
