Spicy Grilled Cheese Avocado Recipe

I found this recipe on Facebook by Just Livin The Green.

1 avocado

1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce 

1 tablespoon lime juice
¼ cup Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper

Slice the avocado in half and remove the stone. Prick all over with a fork, or cut criss-cross patterns with a knife. This allows the sauce to penetrate the flesh.
 

Pour the sauce over each half, then top with lime juice and salt and pepper.
 

In the cavity where the stone has been, put a fourth of the cheese on each avocado half. Place under the broiler for 2 minutes.
 

Top with remaining cheese and broil for another 2 minutes until completely melted and avocado warmed through.

 

(The only thing I would change is they type of cheese. The Parmesan does not melt well enough. I would sub with Cheddar or Mozzarella next time.)

I found the original recipe here: Almond Flour Biscuit

2 cups organic almond flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 Tablespoons organic butter
2 organic pastured eggs
2 Tablespoons local organic raw honey
1 teaspoon organic vanilla extract

Preheat oven at 350°F.

Spoon batter onto parchment-covered baking sheet. (You can also pat them into biscuit shapes or roll out the dough and use cookie cutters.)

Bake for 7 minutes or until golden. Eat them plain or top with favorite nut butter or butter!

Refrigerator Pickled Salad Recipe

I found this recipe here: Refrigerator Cucumber Salad I made it almost exactly the same, but changed the name for mine as I can see this being used for more than just cucumbers.

4 pint-sized canning jars

1.5 large thinly sliced cucumbers
1 large sliced red onion
1 medium sliced bell pepper
1 Tablespoon salt
1 cups white vinegar
1.5 cups organic sugar
1 teaspoon celery flakes
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
ice

Mix cucumbers, onions, bell pepper and salt; set aside.

Bring vinegar, sugar, celery flakes and pepper flakes to a boil. Remove from heat and add 2 large handfuls of ice. Stir until ice is melted.

Fill jars with vegetable mixture.

Using a funnel, pour vinegar mixture into jars until vegetables are completely covered. Push vegetables down carefully with wooden spoon, if needed.
Store in refrigerator for up to two months.

Cough Syrup Base Recipe

I saw this article yesterday: Preparing For The Winter and decided to give the remedy a try. This will be used for cough syrup or sore throat syrup.

16 oz. local raw honey
1.5 lemons (with rind,) sliced thin
1-inch knob ginger, sliced thin

Put lemon and ginger slices in 24-ounce jar. Pour 16-oz. honey over all, until completely immersed. Stir until all air bubbles are dispersed. Keep in refrigerator until lemon and ginger slices dissolve (may take several weeks.) The concoction will look like marmalade.

This can be used to flavor tea or other drinks by the teaspoonful. Can also be taken directly from the spoon as a remedy for coughs or sore throats.

Honey is an excellent 'preservative' and will last indefinitely. As this is used, you can keep 'topping it off' by adding more lemon, ginger and honey, as long as the lemon and ginger are completely covered.
