Eco Eats: Thanksgiving Favourite Eats

Published by

  Thanksgiving Day is one of my favourite holidays! A wonderful time for friends and family to come together and make new memories during a fantastic dinner.  It is also a time for reflecting on what we are thankful for.  It’s always been a tradition at Thanksgiving Dinner and/or Friendsgiving for everyone sitting around the table to say one thing they are most thankful for.  Through all the good and bad that has happened this year, there is still so much to be thankful for.    When it comes to the holidays, the main attraction is always the dinner table garnished with chic decorations and tasty treats.  ’Tis the season to start whipping up in the kitchen some old fashioned favourite holiday dishes.  Here are some of our favourite Thanksgiving side dishes, drinks and desserts.  Whenever possible, support local.  Some local favourites making their way to our Thanksgiving Dinner are Coconut Marshmallows from Powder Monkey Gourmet Treats and Cayman Thanksgiving Tea from Tea Time in Cayman  Blood Orange & Cranberry Sauce    Ingredients: 1 bag …

Back from traveling and hit with the flu. On the positive side, I have learned that a turmeric latte is the new tea remedy for getting over the cold.  It’s bright and bold color makes it stand out as a drink loaded with health benefits.  Turmeric health benefits are considered to be: strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and bonus it helps with anti-aging.  It is simple to make and rich in taste.  A perfect cup of tea for the approaching holiday season.   What You Will Need Milk (any kind), turmeric, nutmeg, cinnamon and honey. How To Make It Boil your choice of milk (almond, coconut, soy, whole milk) on medium heat. Then stir in turmeric, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Start with a teaspoon of each, and add more of each ingredient based on your taste preference. Then serve and mix in a teaspoon of honey. Enjoy, xo   SaveSave SaveSave

For all you tea lovers you are in luck! Totally Fresh Cayman produces and brews the finest Moringa Loose Leaf Tea on the island!
