Sparkling Rosé Sangria by: Botella & Co.

Here is an AMAZING sounding Rosé Sangria from Botella & Co. that I had to share. It promises to make any summer afternoon a little more special! Enjoy!
10 green grapes, halved
4 fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 peach, pitted and sliced
1 bottle (750 milliliters) of prosecco (Tutela is one of my favorites)
1/2 bottle of vihno verde rose Casal Garcia
1/2 cups white grape juice
1/2 cup brandy
2 sprigs fresh mint

Fill a large glass pitcher halfway with ice; add fruit. Tilt pitcher and pour the prosecco very slowly down side (to preserve bubbles). Add juice, vinho verde rose and liquor; stir gently. Stir in mint.

This festive bubbly cocktail offers the antioxidant resveratrol, which may help reduce inflammation and protect cells from damage. Cheers...
I can not wait to try it!
Big thanks to Alessandro @ Botella & Co for sharing!

Happy summer everyone!
XOXO - P

Orange glazed chicken with Shredded Brussels Sprouts and Autumn Brown Rice.

First of all please allow me to apologize for the picture quality. My camera was dead when I went to take a picture, and we were far to hungry to wait for the battery to charge, so I used my iPhone. It’s not terrible, but it is not great either. Now… to the food!!! I originally wanted to try this dish with duck breast but it seems that, even at Whole Foods I can't find any duck breasts. I did find a rather large whole duck, but I didn't get it because it would obviously be too much! So I went for chicken breast. Since I was looking to have that fatty flavor that duck naturally gives out I chose to get the chicken breast (3 breasts) with skin on. I couldn’t find skin on without bones, so I had to debone the breasts at home. It’s really easy to do. You just guide your knife along the rib cage and you’re all set. First preheat your oven to 375 and get started on your rice. I chose brown rice, but any rice you prefer will be fine for this dish. I followed the directions on the bag,

The All Powerful Sauerkraut!

So It seems that I am the last person on the planet to know about the AMAZING health benefits of Sauerkraut.  To be 100% honest our dog got really sick this week and we were researching how to help him out without having to spend a fortune at the vet's office. We kept reading that the dogs health and overall well being started off with how his gut was, and what was going on in his digestive track. JUST LIKE PEOPLE. And the way to make sure that your gut is healthy is probiotics! One of the easiest, and least expensive ways to get billions of these things in you a day is with eating fermented foods like Sauerkraut.  Here is a link to a REALY interesting article  I found about the science of probiotics, mental health, gut health, becoming healthier.  In a much shorter intro to the benefits of Kraut, here is the gist of it from another article I read pertaining to people as well as animals: History of Sauerkraut Although many people think of sauerkraut a

Espro Coffee Press

Hey guys! I'm back. Sorry I have been gone for such a long time, but here I am, and I'm ready to start talking about food again! Food, and drinks, and a few new tools that I got recently that have changed my life!!! So to start off I want to introduce you to the Espro French Press. This has changed my mornings for good. Normally I am a Starbucks in the morning kind of guy. I do not enjoy making my own coffee, and it never tastes the same as it does when I go to the coffee shop. While we were living in LA we had a k-cup coffee maker and that was nice enough. I used it often, but still loved to take a ride to Starbucks. Now we are back home in NYC, and our kitchen was too small for a coffee maker. So every morning, right after waking up, it was time to head out and walk the 2 blocks to get our coffee. That was all fine and good, but something happened... that something was called WINTER!!! Ugh.... living in LA for a while we forgot what that trek in the cold was like. We nee
