Arugula Salad

Arugula Salad roasted cauliflower, and chickpeas, with lemon pasta and arugula This arugula salad, is filled with fresh flavors.  A hint of sweet with corn and peas. A salty kick of roasted chickpeas, and a crunch of cauliflower.  Over a nutritional bed of peppery fresh arugula.   All these flavors together make for the perfect, fresh, flavorful, and colorful salad. I used this salad as a lunch entree, but it could easily be a side to a delicious dinner, or a midday snack in a small portion.  You could also add a protein such as chicken, or fish to make it a more filling meal.

Juice & Java Review!

Juice & Java Miami give your taste buds what you want and your body what it needs  A few weekends ago I went to down to Miami for my college orientation at Johnson and Wales University, where I will be attending this fall.  While I was in Miami we had one free day where we went to the beach.  We also went to lunch, here at Juice and Java and dinner at Zuma.  Read my review of Zuma Miami to find out more.  We went to Hallandale beach and it was beautiful.  Here's a picture completely unrelated to this review!

Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes!

Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes! These lemon raspberry cupcakes are a perfect summer treat.  They're sweet and tart.  The lemon cream cheese frosting makes them refreshing on a hot day.  These are great for a summer gathering or picnic! When I made these I used fresh raspberries, you can use fresh if in season, which I suggest, or you can use frozen raspberries.  If you choose to use frozen don't defrost them first, leave them frozen.  The fresh raspberries will  be softer and create a moister cupcake.    These cupcakes have a buttermilk vanilla cake mix base, you can use a favorite vanilla mix, if you have one, or use the one I have used.  The buttermilk cake mix makes for a more textured cupcake, as opposed to whole milk or a sour cream mix.   To get the complete recipe for the Raspberry Cupcakes and the Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting, click the link below!  ↓↓↓↓ Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes Recipe!
