Good evening (or morning) to everyone! We're in the final hours of the week end. I'm sorry about that, but then again, that's not in my fault. However, I do have one or two ways in which to spend your next Sunday...and after how today's Sunday went, I'd say that it wasn't too shabby. Here are one or two pictures of the Fourways Farmer's Market we went to this morning/ afternoon. A fine-weathered laid back day, some chilled peeps, good food and a perfectly located spot for soaking up les rays. So many nice things to see, so many lovely things to eat! Everything from Spring rolls, lovely Consol-jar Cocktails, Chimichurrie dips n pesto's, to "Johannesburg's Best Brownie" (but my gran makes them better). There are plenty of hay bails to lounge on, gardens to peruse, little pop-up caffeine bars to survey, a wood-chip filled play area for the littluns, everything you would need to make a lazy Sunday successful. Once we decided to go home to make some food for the rest of the family, we bought a huge bouquet of fresh spinach and headed home to try out a "deconstructed" Meatloaf. Ingredients: The ingredients are pretty simple: Ground beef Your own selection of spices Mushrooms Spinach Cherry Tomatoes And then for the Cheesy, White Sauce... Butter Flour Milk 2-3 teaspoons of Hummus S & P Cottage cheese Cheddar cheese (if you feel necessary) This is sort of an adaptation of a past recipe I've posted, but with a bit more refinement. All we've done to create this lovely bake was to make meatballs, rest them on a bed of spinach and tomatoes, then braai some mushrooms with some garlic in a pan. Then, it was popped into the oven to cook a smidge. While we waited, the white/hummus/cheese sauce was prepared and then poured over the oven dish about 15 minutes later. It was left in the oven for about 30 minutes at 140 degrees Celsius. AND THEN>>> Voila! It was a hit with the family, and I'm sure my Dad won't be complaining when he receives Round-Two for Lunch tomorrow :-) Until Next time, have a fantastic week, and please have a look at the Facebook page of the Farmer's Market; apparently next week they'll have their live music up and running again! https://www.facebook.com/TheFourwaysFarmersMarket Bonsoir Mes amis! ;-) xx
