Parsley's Apple Bread
(Makes between 8 to 10 mini-loafs or one 9x5" loaf)

Ingredients:

1 Cup of avocado oil (with a few extra drops to coat the pans)
1/4 Cup of granulated sugar
1/2 Cup of brown sugar
2 Cups of apples (peeled, grated, or chopped in a food processor)
1 Tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 Tsp of cardamom
1/2 Tsp of ginger
1-1/2 Cups of all purpose flour
1 Cup of oatmeal
2 Tsp of baking powder
2 large eggs plus 2 egg yolks
1 Tsp of vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Coat the pans (I used mini-loaf pans) with some oil or a 9x5 inch loaf pan (lightly oil the bottom and sides of pans).

Peel and process the apples. Whisk together eggs, egg yolks, brown sugar, vanilla and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Continue whisking vigorously until lighter in color and has thickened. Whisking with one hand and slowly with the other hand, pour a slow steady stream of the avocado oil into the egg mixture until all combined.

Add the cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, flour, oatmeal and baking powder to the egg mixture, then fold in the chopped apples.

Transfer the mixture to the mini-loaf pans or the one larger pan. Bake until golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. The mini-loaves took about 40-50 minutes... the larger loaf can take up to 60-70 minutes.

Recipe - Avocado Chicken Salad

1/1/2022

0 Comments

Here is one of Parsley's favorite mixes for a quick bite for lunch.

It is an Avocado Chicken Salad.

She loves it because it turns green *smiling*. This is also a good way to use frozen avocados.

Set one half of an avocado out to thaw. I microwave mine for 30 seconds.

After it is thawed, smash it with a fork. Then place a pre-cooked chicken breast into a food processor.

Use anywhere from 1 to 1 1/2 full breasts. I pull them apart before chopping in the food processor to avoid any large chunks of chicken.

Next, add about 1/3 cup of mayonnaise depending on how dry of a chicken salad one likes. I use Best Food Vegan mayonnaise (no eggs). Keep in mind that the avocado is also a fat and should be taken into consideration when deciding how much mayonnaise to add. Finally, a dose of mustard (to taste); add a little minced onion and a dash of pepper with about a 1/4 cup of sweet pickle relish... (again to taste). Now comes the hidden spice... a real sweet addition. It is a cardamon, cinnamon and clove mixture.

Just a couple sprinkles of this and you have Parsley's mouth watering Chicken Salad. Enjoy!

The Holiday Dash...

As sparkles glitter in the cold air with the crisp scent of Magic just slightly tickling her nose, Meen knows that it is almost that time again. This is her favorite month of each year and she does love going all out to deck the halls. Well, maybe not her halls, but the Shadow King does love seeing the finery around the palace too. Normally Meen took her time decorating, but not this year. She was in a rush. The little Pyksee was excited and wanted to head on over to Granny Flare's cottage to find out more about this new Pee-C Granny just received. The Twitter Birds have been chirping all day long about this new magic and it sounded like a lot of fun!

While Meen was hopping around the palace, Griselda was digging through the books in her library at the mansion. The colorful glo-bug lights and decorated tree certainly were putting her in the mood to curl up in front of the fireplace with a good book. What better place to read the stories of old and enjoy a nice cup of tea?

She too had heard of this wonderful magical toy that Parsley and Granny Flare were playing with. Maybe she would drop by and check it out herself later, but first that cup of tea.

As the Dowager continued looking through some of her books, out dropped a letter from an old friend that lived in a magical place called the North Pole. Now Griselda hadn't been able to stay in touch as much as she liked because the Twitter Birds didn't really like flying that north if they didn't have too. Plus the Mushroom Line wasn't reliable for popping up when the ground was covered in snow and ice. Somehow, they always seemed to get lost and always headed for warmer climates.

"Maybe there was something to this zooming stuff that the others were gossiping about," she thought. Griselda gathered up her letter from Mrs. Claus with the Coffee Cake Muffin Recipe and decided that a visit to Parsley just might be the thing to do. "Nothing like reaching out to friends far and near... or was that dear (*smiling*) for the holidays".
