Shrimp & Strawberry Baby Spinach Salad for the Strawberry Moon!

HELLO WITCHY POOS AND HAPPY STRAWBERRY MOON!

​
A week ago, I polled you guys to see if you wanted my Strawberry Moon Shrimp Salad recipe, and some of you did, so I thought I would share it with you! I have recently started cleaning up my diet, so eating fresh fruits and greens, mixed with some protein, is a GREAT way to satisfy your hunger during the hot summer months. When it's hot out, I don't exactly crave huge and heavy meals, and whether or not the same is for you, you can still add this as an addition or side dish to any meal. This is SUPER simple!

This takes maybe 10-15 minutes to make and measurements are for 1 person, so if you are serving more, adjust accordingly!

In a bowl, Defrost/clean about 8 shrimp

In a separate bowl, combine the following:
  • Wash and chop 1 cup of Strawberries
  • Measure out 1 cup of raw baby spinach
  • 2 cap fulls of Apple Cider Vinegar

In a frying pan, add the following
  • 2 tsp of olive oil in your pan
  • 2 tsp of jarred minced garlic in your pan

Once your shrimp are defrosted, start up the heat on your frying pan, and saute your shrimp in the garlic and olive oil.

​As the shrimp starts turning pink, add a pinch of pink himalayan sea salt and some crushed black pepper. The excess water from the shrimp, combined with the olive oil and garlic, should make a nice sauce. Now, you don't want to cook your shrimp for too long, or it will get leathery! They're usually good to go, a few seconds after turning completely pink. Now take all your contents from the pan and add to your salad bowl with your spinach/strawberries.

Now cut a lemon, and using half, squirt the juice over your whole salad, and mix altogether! Add another dash of sea salt & crushed black pepper to taste. VIOLA! A nice and simple, light and fresh summer salad! This is great for a quick and healthy summer lunch or light dinner. ENJOY!

HAPPY STRAWBERRY MOON & MIDSUMMER!

SPRINGTIME EGG SALAD RECIPE FOR OSTARA OR EASTER!

Egg dishes are great to incorporate into any spring celebration, whether it's Ostara (the vernal/spring equinox) or Easter! They represent rebirth, abundance, fertility, and the celebration and return of life all around us! 

One of my favorite egg dishes is this very quick and simple egg salad recipe. I actually found this recipe in a magazine, many many years ago. I had never seen capers in an egg salad before, and I had almost written off egg salad altogether, until I saw THIS ONE RECIPE! It just completely reinvented the dish for me, and I pretty much love anything with capers in it, so I decided to give it a try. Let me just say, it did NOT disappoint!

​
So while I can't take FULL credit for this one, I thought I would share it, as it has become one of my favorite go to's, when I'm looking for a quick lunch or even just a filling snack to hold me over while waiting for a bigger meal. ​

On this tier, I usually upload exclusive spells, vlogs, blooper reels, behind the scenes, and quick recipes that don't end up making the cut on my main YouTube channel!

SPRINGTIME EGG SALAD RECIPE FOR OSTARA OR EASTER

COOKING TIME & SERVING SIZE
EGG BOILING TIME: 15 MINUTES
COOLING TIME: 2 MINUTES 
MIXING TIME: 5 MINUTES
FULL MEAL COOK TIME: Approx. 20-25 minutes

SERVING SIZE: 1 egg for every slice of bread you plan on using 
INGREDIENTS & TOOLS
1-2 Raw Eggs
​A pot of water
A bowl of ice water
1/4 cup Mayonnaise (may substitute with hummus)
1 Tsp Golden brown mustard 
1 TBSP of capers (Optional)
Pinch of sea salt 
Dash of crushed black pepper
Sprinkle of fresh garden parsley 
1 -2 pieces of bread, toasted to your liking 


DIRECTIONS
1. Fill your pot with water and place in your raw eggs

2. Bring your water to a boil, and then set your timer for 10 minutes. 

3. As your eggs are boiling, fill a bowl (big enough to fit all your eggs) with ice and water. Place this bowl in your sink for now. 

4. Once 10 minutes is up, remove your eggs from the boiling water, and place right into your ice water. Give them an ice water bath for 2 minutes. This shocks the eggs and stops the cooking process right away. It also cools them quickly and helps ease the shell removal process.
 
5. After 2 minutes, remove your eggs from your ice water bath and tap them lightly on a hard surface . Then gently roll the egg to loosen the shells. They should start to come off pretty easily. You can discard you eggshells in the garbage, but they are also great to save and crush into a powder and make Cascarilla, which is great for spring cleaning rituals. You can also use them as a plant food or compost as egg shells are packed with amazing nutrients which are GREAT for your houseplants and your outdoor gardens! 

6. After removing the shells, just run your now hardboiled eggs under some water to get rid of any excess shells hanging on to their surface. 

7. Place them in a bowl, and begin to cut them into small pieces. 

8. Add your mayonnaise, golden brown mustard, capers (optional), a pinch of sea salt, a dash of crushed black pepper, and a sprinkle of your garden parsley, to taste.

9. Mix that all up and set aside, while you toast your bread! 
​
10. Add a heaping spoonful to your bread, you can eat this open faced and add a bit more sprinkle of sea salt and fresh parsley on top to garnish. Or you can eat this as a closed sandwich, or even on a bagel, english muffin, or even crackers for a lighter snack! 
That is pretty much it you guys! Very simple! I hope you enjoyed this quick spring time recipe and are all having a lovely time celebrating the Spring season, whether you are celebrating the vernal equinox (Ostara) or Easter if you follow the traditions of Christianity, or even just celebrate Easter commercially. 

Til next time!

Lammas Blueberry Cornbread with Lemon Lavender Glaze

8/13/2020

Picture

 Hello Magickal Beings! 
Happy First Harvest, and Blessed Lammas/Lughnasadh to all! I am always a little sad when Lammas rolls around because it means the almost end of summer. However, I must admit, I always get excited for all the beauty and coziness that comes with Fall: turning inward, and embracing introspection once again. 

But summer is not over yet! First we must celebrate this beautiful sabbat in honor of our first harvest. This sabbat is all about GRATITUDE, ABUNDANCE, FERTILITY, STRENGTH, MANIFESTATION, just to name a few key terms! It's the time of year to harvest all the fruits of our hard labor since the last frost this past winter. Those first seeds we planted come the spring are now growing wild with its ripened fruits on the vine. 

We have also just celebrated the Full Blueberry Moon, which is the best time to pick our ripened blueberries off the vine, and put them to use in some yummy cakes and pies! Some other notable representations of First Harvest are Corn, Lavender, Wheat, Lemons, and Breads. I thought all of these flavors would be great together in one recipe, to celebrate the season and sabbat!  So below I will be showing you how to make this Lammas Blueberry Cornbread with a Lemon Lavender Glaze!

LEMON LAVENDER GLAZE 

INGREDIENTS 
  • ​1 Cup of Powdered Confectionary Sugar 
  • 2-3 Tablespoons of Melted Butter 
  • 1 Tablespoon + 1 Teaspoon of Lemon Juice 
  • The Zest of 1 Lemon 
  • 1 -2 Teaspoons of Dried Lavender Buds to taste 

DIRECTIONS 
  1. ​Combine butter, powdered sugar, & lemon juice until smooth. If you want a thicker glaze, add more sugar. If you want a thinner glaze, add more lemon juice.
  2.  Mix with a whisk to eliminate clumps.
  3. Once you get your desired consistency, grate in the zest of your lemon to create beautiful golden yellow flakes in your glaze. This also adds a refreshing lemony tang to your glaze!
  4. Add your dried lavender buds to taste. Start off with a teaspoon and taste it. Add a little more if needed. You can always add more, but you can't take out, so it's best to add a little at a time, because you don't want your lavender to overpower the lemon. The hint of lavender gives a nice softness to the tart glaze!
  5. Warm it up and pour over your cornbread. I found it is best to store the glaze in a container, and pour it on your bread when you are ready to eat it. If the glaze sits on the cornbread for too long, it will make it soggy, so the bread is best not stored with the glaze on it. 

Picture

EXTRA MAGICKAL TIDBITS! 

Place your cornbread on a beautiful platter and adorn with fresh cut flowers. Sunflowers are a big symbol around this time. I used these cute helianthus! Just check for bugs before putting near your food! You can use this bread platter as an offering on your Lammas altar. Or you can cut a little piece and leave as a little fairy offering outside in your garden. You can put it in a little seashell or acorn cap! Fairies LOVE their sweet cakes and breads!

Rain Magick Lavender Shortbread Cookies w/ Edible Flowers RECIPE

6/29/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
Hello Magickal Beings! 
I hope you all had a wonderful Midsummer Solstice and Merry Litha! I hope you are enjoying the slowness of summer, tending to your gardens and knocking some unfinished projects off your to-do list! Before you know it, we'll be turning in for the colder seasons once again. Not quite yet though! We still have a couple more months left to tend our gardens and brave the heat! Even our plants and flowers might be subject to a bit of a draught, so I did some research and found out that a very special flower that I planted in my very own garden, holds some very magickal properties that are said to be used in RAIN MAGICK! 

Picture
According to Scott Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs, "If pansies are picked when dew is still on them, it will soon rain"! I also found out that Pansies are in fact EDIBLE! As I was thumbing through my copy of Midsummer: Rituals, Recipes, & Lore for Litha, I found a recipe for Shortbread Cookies, when all of these concepts simultaneously crossed paths in my mind. I thought it would be cool to create my own version of this Shortbread Cookie, using Pansies as a topping, and when eaten, it would serve as an intentional blessing to keep my garden well watered by the skies through the hot summer.  So I searched for pansy shortbread cookies to see if I could find out how to secure them to the tops of the cookies when I came across a recipe by Sugar and Charm.

The actual recipe I used was a bit of a cross between the recipe I found in the Midsummer Book and Sugar and Charm's website, as well as some add-ons and amendments I made, putting my own spin on things. Instead of the Rosemary as used in the Midsummer Book, I used culinary lavender buds instead, as well as orange zest and some drops of DoTerra's Wild Orange Essential Oil for an extra zesty taste! 

Before I get into this recipe, you can actually watch me pick pansies and bake these cookies, along with some other recipes and projects for the Midsummer season in my Youtube Vlog here:

SHORTBREAD INGREDIENTS 

  • 3 sticks of room temperature unsalted butter 
  • 1 1/4 cups of confectionary or powdered sugar 
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract 
  • 3 cups all purpose flour 
  • 1/4 tsp salt 
  • 1 tsp culinary lavender buds 
  • Zest of 1 orange 
  • 5-8 Drops of DoTerra's Wild Orange Essential Oil 

SHORTBREAD COOKIE DIRECTIONS

  1. Add your 3 sticks of butter to your standing mixer, and beat on high speed until smooth. 
  2. Add in your confectionary/powdered sugar gradually until combined.
  3. Add the vanilla, salt, lavender buds, orange zest, and your Wild Orange EO drops  and continue to beat until combined. 
  4. Set mixer to low speed, add your all purpose flour and mix until all combined.
  5. Wrap the dough with plastic wrap, refrigerate for 30 minutes or until dough is firm enough to work with a rolling pin. (You can leave it in the fridge longer, if need be.)
  6. Coat a clean surface as well as your rolling pin with flour. 
  7. Roll out your dough until it is about a 1/4" in thickness.
  8. Cut shapes into your dough with cookie cutters. I used some standard circle and square shapes, but also found a cute sun shaped cookie cutter to keep with the spirit of the sabbat! 
  9. Place cut out cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. 
  10. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. 
  11. Take them out, let them cool to room temperature before adding your frosting and Pansy flower topping.
Picture
When your cookies are room temperature, now it's time to have fun decorating them with our beautiful edible pansy flowers! LET'S GO SNIPPETYBIP SOME PANSIES!

PICK YOUR PANSIES!

Picture
It is perfectly fine if these are not growing in your own garden. You might be able to find these or other edible flowers at your local grocery store, or specialty store. But if you DO have these in your garden, why not put them to good use!?!? And if you don't, these are a great flower to have in your garden, and you should definitely make a note to plant them next year! They actually will do well if you plant them in the fall... they enjoy the cooler weather much better!

DISCLAIMER: It is important to make sure that your pansies are certified organic, and don't contain any pesticides before using them for culinary purposes. DO NOT get them at a florist. Pick them from your own garden or purchase in the grocery store where they are sold with the intention of being ingested. 
Picture

COOKIE TOPPING INGREDIENTS

  • 16-24 organic pansy heads 
  • 1 tsp of meringue powder OR egg white
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar 
  • A couple drops of water 

DIRECTIONS 

  1. Snip your pansies as close the the head as possible, and press between 2 pieces of wax or parchment paper. Set a heavy book on top for at least 1 hour, or overnight. The longer the better.
  2. Carefully peel open your wax paper, as some petals will stick. Gently peel them off, being careful not to rip off the petals. 
  3. Mix 1 tsp of meringue powder OR egg white (I used the egg white method and it worked just fine), 1 Tbsp powdered sugar, and a few drops of water, and mix until a paste forms. 
  4. Coat the top of your cookie with the sugar paste. 
  5. Dust the top of the cookie with powdered sugar using a sieve.
  6. Press your pansy flower onto the top of the cookie, gently tapping on each petal with your finger to flatten. If some petals are sticking up, or not sticking to the cookie, put a dab of sugar past on the underside of the petal, and gently press down. 
  7. Place on your plate for presentation! ​

SET YOUR INTENTION!

Now it is time to try one! When you eat your rain magick cookie, set the intention and picture Mother Earth opening her arms and sprinkling her refreshing water onto your blossoming garden. Envision your garden thriving, and reaffirm that you will have a bountiful harvest come the Lammas sabbat! After you finish your cookie, seal it with "SO MOTE IT BE!" and thank Gaia for all of her blessings.
