Happy Aloha Friday! Today’s Follow Friday share

Happy Aloha Friday! Today’s Follow Friday share is one of my faves - @chicanoeats. Many are already following him, but I think everyone should be. I am currently munching on my version of his ceviche (see second pic, recipe in his cookbook - which I’m giving away a copy of it as well. See bottom of this post)
🌮🌮
Esteban grew up in So Cal like I did. His parents immigrated from Mexico for a better life, better education and healthcare for their family. So many of my Mexican friends growing up had similar stories. Food was a huge part of staying connected to his extended family in Mexico, who he visited often growing up, as well as now sharing it with all of us via his blog and new cookbook. He makes it all from drinks, appetizers, main courses and desserts. It all looks so so so good.
🌮🌮
And it all reminds me of the food I would eat at friends houses for family parties, birthdays, friend’s Quinceañeras etc. I miss GOOD Mexican food living outside of So Cal for some many years now. But with @chicanoeats I have so many amazing recipes to choose from to make me miss it a little less.
🌮🌮
I love his recipes and food photography style. Bright and vibrant just like the food and people of Mexico.
🌮🌮
Sample of his recipes seen here are:
• Tostadas De Camarón (my photo)
• Cantaritos
• Pineapple Upside Down Cake
• Chica Morada Pineapple Margaritas
• Rajas Con Crispy Quesillo
•Chocoflan
• Pineapple Mojito
• Tacos De Papa Con Chorizo
• Grilled Chicken Wings with Chimichurri
🌮🌮
I am giving away a copy of Chicano Eats cookbook. All you have to do to enter is
- Follow @chicanoeats
- comment with what recipe of his you want to make
- tag a friend!
That’s it. I’ll pick a winner on Monday 7-13-2020

Happy Aloha Friday! Time for another Follow Friday

Happy Aloha Friday! Time for another Follow Friday. Sharing my space here every Friday and today is with one of my fave foodie friends @niksnacks.
🍽🍽
Nikki is a food blogger, a @tastecarolina food tour guide, a food writer for @triad_city_beat and her Sangria Saturdays are something I look forward to every week.
🍽🍽
Her recipes and videos are awesome. We share a love of summertime, shorts and pineapple. She is also famous for her Philly Cheesteak Cheesecake. A savory cheesecake with Philly Cheesesteak toppings. I think it’s genius and whenever I see anything “Philly Cheesesteak” themed I think of her. Like when I saw the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls at Trader Joe’s. I’d like to think that’s her influence.
🍽🍽
Nikki also has amazing weekly menu plans that include her recipes like Engagement chicken (a roasted lemon herb chicken that’s so good), shrimp and grits, blueberry lemon ricotta pound cake, pineapple shrimp fried rice, and pineapple upside down cake.l to name a few.
🍽🍽
Give @niksnacks a follow and stay tuned for her latest Sangria Saturday recipe video tomorrow!!

Happy Mai Tai Day! You know I’m celebrating and

Happy Mai Tai Day! You know I’m celebrating and with my Hawaiian Wedding Mai Tai Cocktails too. These were the Mai Tais we had at our wedding on Kauai. Our version has some tropical juices added into it. Our own personal riff of the classic tiki drink. We celebrated 13 years on June 1st. Time flies when you’re having fun! Recipe on my blog in the cocktail archives.

Happy #AlohaFriday! I have a fun share for you all

Happy #AlohaFriday! I have a fun share for you all today. I have known her for years through the food blogging community. One of the nicest in the biz. 🎂🧁
Many of you already know the fabulous @grandbabycakes but for those who don’t, let me introduce Jocelyn Delk Adams. She’s a cook, baker, author and TV personality extraordinaire. She shares my love of pineapple, makes the most incredible cakes, has the cutest daughter, looks amazing in pink and got her baking skills from her grandmother. Jocelyn is the “grand baby” of Grandbaby Cakes. She was also married in Hawaii like I was and she had the cutest babymoon there. You have to scroll her feed to see her gorgeous wedding and vacation photos. 🎂🧁
Jocelyn makes a wide variety of incredible recipes, her specialty is cakes. Pound, bundt, layer, cupcakes, you name it, she makes them all. I made two of her cakes this week for birthdays in my family, her Strawberry Shortcake Cake and her Chocolate Birthday Cake. Best cakes I’ve ever tasted. Absolutely amazing. Rave reviews from my family.
🎂🧁
Also amazing are her Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes. I’ve made them so many times. They’re breakfast perfection. Next on my list to make of hers is her Pineapple Upside Down Pound Cake with Rum Glaze and her Mango Bars. And her Beignets. And and and. You get the idea.
🎂🧁
Give @grandbabycakes a follow if you aren’t already and show her some love by making some of her recipes soon! I would love to know what you want to make of hers first.
🎂🧁

My Father’s Day gift to my husband this year was

Happy Father’s Day! I had my husband pick out so

Happy Father’s Day! I had my husband pick out some recipes for me to make for him today and he went with a summery, tropical theme. Drink, salad, main dish and desert. I like his style. Too bad he doesn’t get any of this until he gets home much later this evening. 12 hour shift at his hospital taking care of Covid patients (please wear masks. It’s literally the least you can do). Now. On to the food!
☀️
•Li Hing Guava Margaritas
•Fresh Pineapple, Avocado and Pea Shoot Salad
• Hawaiian Style Slow Cooker Kalua Pork (the #1 recipe on my blog since 2012!)
•Brown Butter Piña Colada Blondies.

All recipes on my blog in the recipe archives under “Summer”
☀️
Hope everyone has a nice relaxing day today filled with good food and with loved ones. I know holidays like today aren’t always the easiest since everyone has a different situation with the fathers and father figures in (or not in) their lives. So take care of you first! ☀️
