A simple but totally addictive cheesy crunchy snack; Your family and friends will love them! Our guests enjoyed for sure and gave some feedback! Watch the video till the end for feedback! 

 Enjoy my foodie-licious cooks!!  

 

Ingredients: 

1 head broccoli 

2 eggs 

1 1/2 cups cheese (I used Emmental cheese. You can use cheddar or a cheese of your choice) 

1 cup breadcrumbs 

1 onion (chopped)

 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 

1/2 teaspoon cumin 

1/4 teaspoon celery 

1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)

 1 vegetable bouillon cube 

1/4 teaspoon salt 

1 tablespoon parsley 

 

Preparation: 

Preheat the oven to 400°F. 

Grease a baking sheet with a thin layer of oil or line with parchment paper and set aside. 

Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 minute then remove and shock with cold tap water to stop the cooking process. Drain well. 

Chop broccoli finely, add the beaten eggs, chopped onions, cheddar, breadcrumbs, cumin, parsley, 1 vegetable bouillon, paprika if you desire. Mix well.

 The recipe did not call for milk, however I did add about 1/4 cup milk. You can add less milk if you desire; we don't want the mixture soggy. Mix well and let stand for 15 minutes. 

With your hands, shape into logs, balls or tater-tot shapes. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the top of each croquette with cheese. 

Bake until golden brown and crispy for 15 minutes or until croquettes golden. 

Enjoy with your aioli or your favorite dip! 

 


 

 My homemade dip: Ingredients: 

 1/3 cup Ketchup 

3/4 cup Mayonnaise 

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

 A pinch of salt 

Fresh parsley or cilantro (optional) 

1/2 teaspoon Mustard (optional) 

 

 Preparation: 

Whisk or Mix well and voila! Delicious! 

 

 Cooking Tip: 

Why do you have to blanch broccoli? 

Broccoli — florets and stems — must be blanched for effective freezing. If you freeze it raw, you'll wind up with bitter, drab green, shriveled stems. Blanching preserves the bright green color and tasty flavor. You can either blanch in boiling water for three minutes or steam for five minutes.

Baked Chicken

  Baked Chicken | Simple Meal Ideas | Cooking Tips       No recipe today, however this is today's cooking tips and a simple meal idea:   Baking Chicken tips:   Rinse the chicken and pat it dry before baking. Once you remove the chicken from its package, rinse it under cool water in the sink (note: always sanitize your sink with disinfectant afterward). Next, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Removing excess moisture will ensure you get extra crispy skin.   To reduce fat and calories, you can skin chicken legs.  Prepare all ingredients and preheat the oven to 400°F.   Spices: I like to use cumin, onion (grated) garlic (grated), paprika, celery powder, cayenne pepper and dried thyme if you have. Please make sure they are fresh! Spices are delicious, but a stale spice can easily ruin a dish. However, you are free to try different spice combinations.   The secret to making them crispy? Don't bake the chi...

One Day at a Time

  One Day at a Time      Working out takes courage and self-motivation. It’s not always about losing weight — for me, it's about staying healthy, strong, and grateful that I can move. Whether it's Taekwondo or Zumba, my goal is the same: to stay active, to keep my energy flowing, and to enjoy the process — no stress, no pressure, just one day at a time. At my age, it may be harder to see quick results, but that doesn’t stop me. I focus on progress, not perfection. Some days, I don’t even want to leave the house — but that's when I give myself that little pep talk, reminding myself why I'm doing this. And once I start, no matter how tough the session gets, I’m always grateful I showed up. Because being able to move, stretch, kick, and dance is a blessing — health is true wealth. Every workout is a victory over excuses, a reminder that I am stronger than my doubts. Progress may be slow, but as they say, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Slowly but surely — I’m building s...
