More delicious food!

Since I had yesterday off, I took advantage of that time. I cleaned up the house, decorated for Christmas, and also made a banana bread with walnuts. It's been a little while since I made one and we both really love it! I also made guacamole, another favorite thing of ours to snack on.

Since it was black Friday as well I went to see if what I wanted was on sale, and unfortunately I was not successful in finding it on sale. I did find one a while back at a decent price and decided to go for it and bought it. As per the email I got, it's already shipped and should be delivered on Monday and I'm quite excited!
It's a medal hanger that goes on the wall. The top part is to put my bibs or photo's and then under that all my medals. I have them spread out on my bookcase and TV cabinet but it would be nice to display them well with this hanger. I did keep my bibs, not really sure why but glad I did cause I'll get to show them off as well.

Today I also got busy in the kitchen and I made these BBQ spiced nuts. The spices are from Epicure, they are new to the catalogue and there was 3 different kinds. I got one of each to try them out. Knowing my hubby would prefer the spiciness first, I decided to try them out. They turned out really good!
They will make a very good snack! To the right is some veggie muffin quiches. I sauteed some onion, mushrooms and spinach in a pan. I added some garlic, and for spices I added some smoked paprika, pizza seasoning from Epicure, turmeric and a tiny touch of salt and some pepper. I needed an egg white for the nuts so I put the egg yolk for the quiches. I added another 4 whole eggs, mixed in the cooled veggies and added two tbsp of nutritional yeast for more healthy goodness and it adds a cheesy flavor as well. I put them in the oven at 350 for 20 minutes. I haven't tried them yet but I'm sure they are delicious! They will be great for my lunch along with some vegetables and some banana bread as a dessert.

At the start of the week, our group at work went out for lunch at the Heart and Crown. They took off my favorite thing from their menu, the smoked salmon sandwich, so I had to find something else. When I saw the cod cakes I had to try them out, and glad I did cause it was delicious!!
So the two cod cakes were over some dill mashed potatoes, I had this sauce to go with the cakes which was very tasty, and some asparagus. It was a delicious lunch and glad it wasn't to much food.

Last weekend I made these
Carrot cake cookies from Joyous Health. I have made these before and they are so yummy! I don't add the raisins though cause hubby hates raisins, so I always add walnuts instead. These are nice and healthy, and so good! You can find the recipe here on her website. Hope you decide to try them cause they are very good!
