How to Brew Coffee in a Percolator

Perfect for busy days when you don't have a lot of time to prepare for side vegetables. You can use frozen cauliflower, and the roasted cauliflower is done in 20-25 minutes. Little prep time and tastes delicious. Perfect with your roast, steak, pork, meat dishes or even as a light snack.

I grow a lot of mint in my garden. I use mint in salads, to make mint oil for cooking, and also to make tea. Fresh mint is easy to grow and needs a lot of sun and water. I use the oil to cook fish, to make salad dressing, and also as a bug repellent. Did you know that many bugs won't bite you if they smell mint?

By Christine Biernat
