Food Glorious Food!

The other great summer beach fruit are cold grapes. So good!

Have been snacking on them in the fridge over the last few days, i generally like the red grapes more but the green ones we bought the other day are so sweet and moreish.

I watched the Spanion's latest episode last night. He asked his members to post their favourite take away food hacks on his feed and gave a number of them a go. He scored them out of 10. I can't remember all the scores however the donut scored the highest then followed by the butter chicken.

1. Hungry jacks whopper with salt and vinegar chips and hot sriracha

2. Meat Pie with a melted kitkat inside.

3. Egg and lettuce sandwich from 7/11 with salt and vinegar chips

4. Krispy Kreme donut with KFC chicken fillet

5. KFC spice wings with butter chicken sauce. (I will try this one with home made devil wings )

6. Maccas quarter pounder with a fillet of fish and chicken fillet

7. Kebab with spicy twisties.

Big fan of cold Nectarines too

I just mentioned that. My favourite stone fruit.

I love stone fruits in summer. And rockmelon.

Love when the nectarines are in season. Better half makes peach sorbet when the peaches are cheap and have it in the freezer to make peach bellini's. Depending on what we are having will sometimes do peach cut into halves on the BBQ.

Yep. I think the Greeks invented Nectarines

Oh and when the Spanian went through the Hungry Jacks drive through he was greeted by AI who took his order. It tripped him out!

The KFC wings with butter chicken sauce sounds fine as does the kebab with spicy twisties and even the two combos with the salt and vinegar chips would be ok but the others on the list

They are so juicy and a beautiful flavour. The apricots in the supermarkets have been pretty ordinary this year though. Peaches are nice too and that peach sorbet sounds so good for a hot summers day…or week as is the case here at the moment.

BBQ this evening, have potatoes, zucchini, mushrooms, tomato and onion to do on the BBQ, may even do a cob of corn also, just have to decide on what protein to take out of the freezer, have a wealth of different sausages, steaks, lamb steaks, lamb chops, chicken breast which i could marinade, leaning towards some thin sausages and maybe lamb steak or might just do a nice piece of steak.

Nectarines are my hands down favourites, never really liked eating peaches whole because of the fuzz on the skin but love them now done as a sorbet or grilled on the BBQ or hot plate. Apricots i can take or leave, don't dislike them but not near the top of the list for me either.

lol, I agree with you on the fuzz. I actually peel it off. That probably makes me sound strange but….i confess.

How I love Hummus.

Hummus on toasted sourdough for lunch.
